DIVINITY OF
CHRIST TO Be
SERMON THEME


why | Believe in the Divinity of
Christ" will be the subject of Mr..
Gravett's MESA ge tonight at the Bap-
fist church. This will be especially
fer young people and for those who
doubt the Lord. Mrs. Kicks and Mr..
and Mrs. Lane will sing McCheyne's
hymn, what Love"
Last evening Mr.. Gravett spoke
upon THE Great White Throne Judg-
ment.' The following is brief syn
opsis of the sermon:
In the fourth and fifth verses of
the Goth chapter of Revelation we
find that those who had not Worship
ped the Beast or his image or receiy-
ed his mark upon their foreheads
shall live and reign with him for a
thousand years AT the end of that
time the rest of the dead shall live,
great white throne. The throne was
white, standing for purity. Only
those who are pure can pass out from
be a Judgment of justice. God will
do that which is Just. Every man
shall be Judged according to his
works.
'And the sea gave up the dead
which were in 1t; and death and hell
delivered up the dead which were in
them; and they were judged every
man according to their works.
Death" here stands. for those who
are living at the time this Judgment
is set up. and hell" for those who
have died in their sins, They are go
ing to be raised into the judgment of
damnation.
And the books were opened" The
first is the book of heredity. And
in thy book all my members were
written. when as yet there was
none of them" Ps. 1876. God
knows all about your heredity, you
cannot plead any excuse on that
score. Before the law you are judged
for the act, but God goes back of the
act. The man whose heredity is
tainted is not as guilty before God as
the man who has good heredity. In
the judgment the light that you have
shall measure the character of your
punishment. The preaching to which
you listen either brings you nearer or
puts you farther away from God.
The second is the book of con-
science. Their conscience also
bearing witness y. In the day when
God shall judge the secrets of men
by Jesus Christ according to my Cos
pei" Rom 2:15-16. Even if you
40 not know much about the Bible
the first chapter of Romans CON
dennis the whole Gentle race with
out a verse of Jewish Scripture. If
you have not lived up to the light
which you have naturally you will be
condemned. The testimony of the
heather is that they are lost because
they have not done the best that
they could
The third is the book of the words
of Christ. Tho words that | have
spoken, the same shall judge him in
the last day" John 12:47-50. 1t
will be no use SAYING that Christ did
not warn you of the awful woe al
tending the disObedient for Christ
on earth and again all through the
book of Revelation warns us that
Cnrist's words. An old legend says
that the promises of God when they
leave heaven are like roses, but when
they strike the confines of hell they
turn into balls of fire.
Him that cometh unto me vii!
in no wise cast out or."God so loved
the world that he, gave his only he
gotten son that whosoeyer beiieyetii
in him should notiperish but have
everlasting life" would sound more
terrible in hell than any one of the
Thou shalt nots" of Sinai.
How shall we escape If we mes
lect SO great salvation?"
And another book was opened.
which is the book of life. and
whatsoever was not found written in
the book of life was cast into the
lake of fire" Every one who trusts
Christ crucified will escape.
Next Sunday afternoon at2:S0, Mr..
Gravett viii speak upon THE Second
Coming of Christ.
