lend OF WORLD
is THE THEME
OF EVANGELIST

Yesterday was great day at the
Christian church. 1t was the best day
OF the whole series OF the meeting SO
far Capacity audiences we're present
in the morning and afternoon and at
night many were turned away Four
teen responded TO the invitation dur
ing the day.
The End Of the World, was the
subject of the discourse last night. Mr..
Marshall used as the text aMtthew
24:3-14 He said in part:
1--WE have before our eyes the signs
here spoken Of Jesus said Of the signs
OF the end, The love Of many shall
wax cold' The Sunday baseball and
Sunday schoow supported by the pro
fessed followers of Jesus here in our
own town is before our eyes. There
shall be wars. Nature shall rise
against nation This sign is now be-
fcre the wirld Such war has never
been known. Who can deny?
Then Jesus said, Many false
prophets shall rise and shall deceive
many Never in all the history of
the world has the false teachers had
such following as today. Eddyism,
Russellism and Mormonism are all
growing by leaps and bounds. The
sign spoken Of by Jesus is before us.
But he says the end is not yet.
The gospel shall be preached in all the}
world for witness to all the nations,
then shall the end come Jesus viii |
come in the clouds OF glory, shall SIT
on The throne OF glory. The judgment /
day viii be enacted. Then shall come !
the final windup as described by Peter /
in his second epistle, $40. In which
the heavens shall pass away with a
great noise, and the elements shall \
melt with fervent heat, and the earth I
and all its works shall be burned up
"How shall we escape? Only through
Jesus Christ, who is the way, the
truth and the life Blessed and holy
is he who hath part in the first resur-
rection tJesus) over him the second
death hath no power Rev. 2o:6."
