THE BIBLE LECTURE
Mr.. Kendall Speaks TO Good Audience
at Opera House.

Mr.. Stephen Kendall, of Washington,
during his lecture on the Three Worlds
of the Bible at the Opera House Sun
day afternoon interested an audience OF
about $50 people.
He explained the character of the
work being done by the Laymen's Home
Missionary Movement as intended to
arouse interest in a study of the Bible
and to point TO a more systematic and
profitable way for the student.
He said in part that the three dif-
ferent worlds Of the Bible were not
heaven, earth and hell, but three diff
ferent arrangements or dispensations,
composed of the spiritual and social
systems.
The first world of dispensation ended
with the deluge; the second will end
with the advent Of Christ and the third
world will be the world or dispensation
without end.
The speaker claimed that the divine
plan was only ineligible when these
three dispensations were discerned, and
that the various teachings of the Bible
could only be harmonized when properly
connected with one or another Of the
three dispensations.
Mr.. Kendall promised to speak next
Sunday upon the topic, election and
free grace harmonized, and extended a
cordial invitation to all Christians to be
present
