OF The Man with His Hair Cut
Short"
The text selected was the 18Th
verse OF the 18th chapter of Judges.
The preacher said this text was from
the life and experiences of man
whose place in religious history is
both unique and ineXplicable He
said the incidents recorded here took
place at a day when men had not
reached the high religious ideals of
the present day. God can take the
weak things of the world with which
to confound the mighty, but that
does not mean that God places a pre-
MUM upon ignorance and idleness.
The preacher said that as the
source of Samson's strength was in
his hair so God had made those who
believed in him invincible through
the power of divine grace,
He spoke of the man who is trying
to reach heaven on his moral char
acter and said morality is only re-
fined education Morality within it.
self has no more vital connection
with religion than education.
He spoke at some length on the
question of power that comes
through innocency and purity. He
said the man who is pure is strong.
Anything that is opposed to God is
a character destroyer. There cant be
two sides to the question of religion.
The gospel calls to you to exclude
from your life all that Is not in har-
mony with God. He said there was
