He'll With Him.
CHRIST WILL COME AGAIN
DR.. Gilman States Prophecy Of Peter
Says He Will Once More Assume
Throne of David.

continuing MS addresses on the
book of Genesis yesterday afternoon.
DR.. Gaebelein told the Bemidji Bible
conference that the entire Gospel
scheme starts in the fact that man Ia
fallen, is a sinner and must be saved
DR.. Gaebelein took up the matter of
the fall of man, dwelling especially
on the work of Satan in connection
with the case.
He said that at first Satan had
dwelt in Heaven and had held a good
place; that he had rebelled, had been
expelled and with him dragged down
to hell many companions. He is now
on the watch to see the material
world restored and man and woman
set to care for it.
''The process of temptation said
DR.. Gaebelein, sis to first doubt the
word of God; then contradict Gods
special statements; and third, to al
low riches and love of material honor
draw away from God" DR.. Gaebelein
took up other cases of the old testa-
ment and continued the lectures this
morning.
At the evening session Wednesday
night, DR.. Gilman continued his dis
cussion of imperialism and Christ, -
toll CT re- hv
Peter and their relation to what is to
come. Dr. Ottman said that on the
day of Pentecost, Peter declared that
Christ was raised from the dead and
would again sit on David's throne
"Christ did not occupy the throne of
David after the resurrection but as
cended to Heaven. Hence he will
come again to sit on the throne Peter
said he would occupy"
"Following the healing of the lame
man at the gate beautiful, the apos-
ties were arrested and tried After
the trial they were charged not to
speak in Jesus name. They took the
second Psalm, where it prophetica1]y
speaks of Christ as being supreme,
and Stephen pronounced sentence on
the Jewish. nation. When before the
most terrible court in the history Of
all nations, Stephen did not quail and
look on with blanched face but stood
up and pronounced the sentence of
God on that nation.
''The great dispensational change
is noted in the eighth chapter of Acts
where Phillip is sent to the Etheo-
plan eunuch. 1t marks the cessation
of the great struggle between the
disciples of Christ and the Jewish ma
ton and marks the beginning of the
carriage of the Gospel to outside ma
tions.''
At the Wednesday morning meet
ign, DR.. Luccock spoke on Progress
sive Grace" He elaborated on two
points, the first being of the eagle
taking her young on her back and
bearing them and the second being of
man mounting as one the wings Of
eagles. DR.. Luceock said that the
movement Of religion is in the STIR
ring up and shaking out of a super
fetal contentment with ourselves
and that it is true of eagles, children,
men and nations.
Zone thing We seek in the matter
of Grace is that the beauty of the
Lord may be upon us. We are to
have the nature of God and get tn ;
point of view from the eagles alti-
tude. Religion consists in the end of
our plain, everyday life in the world
walking and not soaring"
DR.. Gaebelein followed DR.. Luccock
and told of the flood He recited the
story of the sending out of the dove.
"The first time it found no resting
place, the second it returned with an
olive branch, the third it did not re-
turn at all. So it is with the Spirit
of God, At first it found no recep-
ton, then it found a resting place in
the hearts of sinner; but when Christ
comes to earth again, it will be to a
new Heaven and earth and his abode
will be everywhere"
This evening DR.. Gaebelein is
scheduled to deliver an address on
"The Scope of the Gospel of John. .
