en- know more Of other things but
there are just "a few lf amy at all but
what know the way of salvation. We
ARE willing tp admit that perhaps the
majority of the population Of this
town do not or have not accepted
Christ.

What we mean by salvation. The
/ fact Of being saved from our sins.
Jesus came into the world to do
one thing, namely to save men from
their sins. They~tha are whole need
not physician, but they that are sick
| When Adam disobeyed God we were
all made to come under the condemn
| ing power Of God. We We're condemn
ed To die the death eternal. But God
out OF the goodness Of His heart pre-
pared the plan Of salvation that we
| have today, and as man fell by his
own free viii God said In John 3:1G,
Whosocyer belieVeth shall not perish
but have everlasting life. When 1t
comes TO the salvation Of the soul
that you are there is no difference
/ with God We come to one common
table and beg cod for ChrisCs sake
to forgive us of our sins, The rich
and poor, the great and the small;
the parent the child; the black

OF mans skin don't have anything

for pardon.

Ing saved any faster when you can
not tell the difference between the
sinner and the church member. Yes
when you get the salvation YOU ought
to have YOU won't want to do things
the world is guilty OF.
There never has been a better time
to be saved since the foundation Of
the church. There is not a village
or a hamlet in all this country that
has not a preacher and church. A .

saved. Perhaps there is not an hour
in the day that this fact is not inn
pressed on your minds. oh! My
brother, each opportunity passed
brings you nearer the place where
there is no way of escape If you have
not found Christ
If we neglect how shall w escape?
