If Perth Amboy is not on the
verge of the greatest religious awak-
ening in its history then close
students of the present evangelistid
campaign are greatly mistaken in
their judgment. 1t seems to be the
unanimous opinion of those who
have attempted to analyze the Bfed-
erwolf revival that it will develop
into the most wonderful moral up4
lift that the metropolis OF Middlesex
has ever enjoyed.
The reasons for the success of the
meetings are not hard to find. The
answer is DR. Biederwolf himself.
His personality, his fine education.
his deep and abiding interest in the
welfare of mankind each have a part
in making him one of the greatest
evangelists In the country. He
grows more interesting as one con-
tinues to follow him in his work.
He has made science of his work
and has mastered It,
For instance, take his sermon Of
last night on Christ Before Plate"
The sermon itself was a marvel Of
simplicity, yet how strongly did hA
convey it's meaning to his auditors.
and how deeply did his words sink
into their hearts. DR.. Biederwol1
has made companion of the Bible
and has thoroughly in hand every
subject upon which he discoursess
Last night he brought before the
large audience seated before him tho
picture of Christ being led to the
throne of PLATE, His transference I'd
the court of Herod, His return to
Pilates court, and finally, His crucii
fixion. He convinced his audience
that Christ was neither an imposteR
or lunatic, but Divine Being, Son
of God, the Father.
Sermon Last Night.
Rev. Biederwolf took for his text,
What shall I do then with Jesus
which Is called Christi" Matthew
27-32.
ut was Thursday night The
awful agony of Gethsemane had
pierced the son of God through and
through. He had just said, Thy
will, oh God, be done, and the
vicious mob broke in upon Him. II
was two hours past midnight and
they placed the shackles upon Him
and led Him into Pilates court
room, where they presented Him az
a violator of the Sanctity of the Ro-
man law, a political conspirator.
/ wonder If PLATE didn't laugh.
What did these bearded Jews care
about the sanctity of the Roman
law7 They despised the very name
of Rome, but when they were thirsts
ing for this innocent mans blood
they couldn't very well get along
without pretext and hypocrisy"
The speaker continued the story
of Jesus, his transference to the
court of Herod, his return to Pilates,
Pilates wish to release Jesus, but
being weak and his people being
urgent, Jesus was cruclfied
What shall ] then do with Jesus
which is called the Christi That's
the most important question you
ever have been asked to answer,
And do you ask what this is? I
answer. All that's worth while IN
the life that now is and the life I'd
come.
First, in this last life Brother,
what about the place Of God? Are
