BREACHES ON
SIN QUESTION
Report Pastor Says He'll is
Home of Remorse.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
Keyport, May 1:-Rev. A. w.
Hand, pastor of the First Baptist
church, delivered a most forceful
and eloquent discourse Sunday
evening, when for his topic he spoke
on "The Sin Question" or "ls
There a He'll in Keyport?" The text
for sermon found in Romans vi, %,
The Wages Of sin are death, but
the gift of God is life through Christ
our Lord"
Mr.. Hands remarks we're intro
dcued by the importance of the
greatest achievement to man, that of
salvation, and of the alarming per
fectly Indifference to this great
truth by man in general. Mr.. HAND
then spoke of the arguments ad-
vanced by the man of sin, to the
effect that a certain amount Of sin
was a necessary step to progress,
to formulate the perfect man; but
are the people today nearer the per-
feet man after these centuries of sin,
than were the old prophets?
The sin question, continued Mr..
Hand, is the transgresslon of the
law, etc, but the vital factor was
in the will of men in opposition to
God. Sin rests in the executive
part of man. Sin was domineering
and universal, sin in society was
drawing humanity in countless num-
bers down in its vortex and the
wages of sin is death. Man in sin is
relatively dead for life was the gift
of God.
Hell" place of the relatively
dead and condition of the most bit
ter remorse. Found in Keyport?
Yes, everywhere, where there are
found lost men and women. AS an
example of the relative condition of
the "Hen" in question.
Mr.. Hand spoke of the settlement
in a Wesaern state by the name of
"Liberel," in which no church nor
christian was entertained, but kept
out the vice and remorse of that To-
cality spread a honor that was coun-
try wide. 1t was a most favorable
culture medium for the vilest and
most horrifying situation.
In summing up his sermon the
speaker magnified these facts that
life was the gift of God and ever
lesting-that sin was readth and ex-
p~eriencedd by man relatively today.
That He'll was the place of the dead
and home of emorse That in Key
port there were those outside of
Christ, they were in sin, they were
in a relative death and living in the
so-called "Hell." For the wages of
sin is death.
