and song a good-sized audience gath |
cred AZ Calvary church last night in
spite of the storm An enthusiastic |
, testimony meeting in which many |
young men took part preceded the |
sermon.
The meetings will continue every |
evening this week ard every afternoon
except Saturday.
"The hardest job a man ever und- |
ertoolt was to lead a christian life !
without religion" said Evangelist HILL !
ITS like n dead fish trying to swim
The object of this meeting Is to help
folks get religion. When we get Jesus
in the heart It's thesweetest thing this
side Of heaven. The only way to get
some rest Is to humble yourself. We
are afraid of what folks will say about
us If we turn to God.
"A racksider is one who has been
unfaithfu 10 God They try TO get
back to God but don't want to hum
BILE themselves. In this oose the way
| up is down. The hardest thing IN
the world is to humble ourselves.
Some Of us have felt pretty good when
the town went dry and thought we
had religion. We must confess Christ
before men. am glad for those WHO
have come and confessed. "TIe that
cometh to God must believe that he
Is. and that he is a rewarder Of them
that diligently seek him"
"The plan of salvation is finished,
God made way for every soul TO
get back TO God. They accused Jesus
cf casting out devils through the
prince of devils. A sinner cannot
commit tho objectionable sin Lat you
can refuse to accept Christ until your
heart becomes so calloused IL Is al
most impossible to turn. Pride Is
damning more souls than whislSey
The devil, says "Whatn they think
&C you"
"There's vast difference between
a church worker and christian work
er. A church worker will turn the
ice cream freezer, wash dishes, fry
|, oysters pnd run tuzaar and win
ask you TO come and join the church.
The christian worker asks II your
soul Is right with God Are you
church worker or a christian worker2
So many bring reprcach upon the
cause Of Christ because they profess
what they haven't got.
"God says without nith It is Inn
possible to please him. For a. man
10 sav that he has evidence without
faith is awful Faith cometA by hear
ing. man that win dsobey God
, hasn't any faith. It's the height OF
nonsense to say that this eucher play
) ing, theater going gang are people
| lie L. tssl.A g..
church and sleep while the preacher
breaches and allow the mouth TO
water for what's in their hip pocket
haven't faith.
, when Il man gets under Jesus
, blood he will clean up his life and be-
gin to make restitution If You start
to seek God keep on till you find him.
, It's wonderful what the Holy Spirit
can do for man. It's n delusion to
say people can be saved any time,
any where. But do they? If the church
would get filed with spirit and keep
: II people would get saved the yclr
l around.
!. "a man or woman that has a faith
! in God won't do a thing that's ques-
|. tionable. Get God in your heart and
/ study His word and youll clean up
7. your life. You say you don't believe
1 i'm shouting, its because you haven't
/. lanything TO shout about. There's q
/ shouting point
i. "rhe only thing to do is to clean
7 your life up and walk with God. Dave

I Iare collected and used in cigarets, My
1 wife thought I'd die II ! quit using

good thing for you to take your bible
I lwith you into the election booth and

I You say. BRO. Hill you're getting

/ the reason why so many people don't
] want their politics and religion mixed
|. Is because their politics are too dirty
! TO mix with their religion.

I wonderful and beautiful. You'll find
