At the Sunday evening service of
the First Presbyterian church, Rev
G. NJ. Rourke delivered an eloquent
sermon on the subject "The exposure
of Millenial Dawnism." He took for
his text words found in Galatians, 1st
chapter and 9th verse; "If any man
preach any other gospel unto you.
than that which ye have received, let
him be accursed:" lie said in part:
IAN opinion is one thing and fact
is another. We may differ i'm regard
to the moon being inhabited but If we
reject the facts we publish our stupid
ity. In Mathematics we demonstrate
proposition and reach mathematical
certainty. In history we open the
pages, announce what occurred and
convince our doubling friend Of Il
moral certainty. Now the word Of
God is a fact and the doctrines 1t
contains are not removed by the eX-
preston OF mans feeble opinion.
"In these days 1t is a very whole

Fundamental truths that cannot he

in one breath and deny It in
another Is neither sane nor logi-
cal. We believe in God the creator
and rest our faith which Is based on
the idea of cause. moral nature and
scripture. We believe the Bible is
our only rule of faith and conduct.
We believe that Jesus Christ is tho

was human and divine. that he is the

reason FOR accepting these facts Is be
