Rev. J. R. Vannatta took for his
subject on Sunday morning last,
! wearing the Right Label" his text
being found in Second Peter, 3rd
chapter, 18th verse: Seeing then that
all these things shall be dissolved,
what manner of persons ought We to
be in all holy conversation and God
/ liness." He said every Christian
wears label. All manufacturers are
compelled to label their goods whether
they will or not; so with the Chris
tian, it is not optional with him. The
moment he enters the Christian life
he must wear the label; he cannot
keep his influence to himself Again
| this label must be correct; the law
provides the manufacturer label
and it must be correct; it must be an
up-to-date label; it must be obtained
from the proper source; it also must
/ he subject to inspection. Gods peo-
pie are always under inspection, and
! if they are living up to the contract
and wearing the right label in their
Christian life, they need not fear in
! spection Many more most excellent
! thoughts were embodied in this fine
sermon.
