Calvary church was filled with peo-
ple eager to hear the message Of
Dave Hin last night as he spoke on
Strive to enter in at the straight
gate"
Mr.. Hill said in part: "The worlds
going to hell because 1t hasn't much
chance to get saved This is because
the church doesn't let God work
through IT, It's the devils business
to keep fussers and kickers in the
church. As long as he can do that
he knows nobody's going to get saw
ed. We need people who will work
any place evenif it T5n't a prominent
one. Cont get q notion, though, that
a lot Of noise is the outpouring Of
the spirit. Maybe it isn't spiritual
power at all only lung power
/ wish we had intelligence enough
TO get together as churches, and let
God pour out his spirit that men
might get savedI nrav Cod that we
may soon be able 90 see that we
need to work together in unity that
the world might learn of Jesus.
Another reason the worlds going
to hell is because we've made men
believe It's easy to get saved. We
have too many around us who are
expecting to get saved at the eleventh
hour / wouldn't give ten cents for
any case of death bed repentance !
ever saw. It's the hardest place in
the world to pray at the bedside
OF one who has trampled upon Gods
laws all his life. Too many want 10
run TO shows, nickolodcums, base bah
games and then when they are about
ready To take their last breath send
for the preacher and think he'll pray
them into heaven.
Saloons are coming into existence,
profanity used bocforc our children
and a lot OF church members don't
act as If they cared. Wor rather
have cantata than a revival SER
vice and rather attend "a bazaar tim
prayer meeting. You can't foot tho
public. They know religion when
they see 1t.
believe Jesus know what he was
talking about when he said that few
people would enter i'm at the straight
gate The literal meaning of the
text is: Agonize to enter i'm at the
straight gate Where are those who
are willing To go through with God2
don't believe that church mem
bers who are following God afar of
are all hypocritcs Men will go to-
theathcrs. drink whishey attend
their lodges, chew tobacco and smoke
and spit and tn preacher doesn't dare
say a word.
A lot of folks go To church only
when they have new clothes To show
and then sing. 4 love thy kingdom
Lord; then they drop
the collection plate while they have
a $25 hat on their heads. For many
shall seek to enter and not be able;
said Jesus. If man can commit
one sin and be a Christian he can
commit a thousand and be Chris
tian, too. God can save me and
keep me saved.
81 propose to glorlfy the Son OF
God II ! am called a crank. We
must be saved from all sin all the
time. If ever there was nation or
a time when people needed another
glimpse of Calvary II Is our nation
now. believe Just what the Bible
says about entering In at the straight
gate. In what blood was Paul wash.
ed? With what spirit was he filed?
Has the blood Of Jesus lost its power?
No, II Is necessary for US TO be as
clean and pure as Paul was.
what would you think of God
who couldn't save from tobacco,
dances, theater's and clubs He is
the same yesterday forever, and able
