ASKS PEOPLE TO WAKE UP

I city who are rushing 10 hell with
every beat OF their heart. Some say
tney never expected Christ. II is pos
sible for man to think that he is ali
right Nickodemus was a great church
man and was supposed to be all right
But God said TO <ickodemus You
nave got TO be born again.
God help you to stop dreaming. and
this Bible ought TO do A. There Is
many man who wakes up. No man
expects to go TO hell You would 10
mad IN ten years II you knew you
pinch OF poverty. you would not
want TO 20 10 hell for a million dol
iars No man ever expects to go to
Did you ever wake up In the morn
ing and say you will rest a little
while. and then go TO sleep again.
some say you dan't believe In revi-
God at revival You don't come to
God without a revival. but you need a
great power 10 stir you up.
Change For Some.
Once. when l was holding a revival
IN Alabama. some men told me they
mad gone to call on a man and had
knocked on the door and there was
no response; they knocked again and
sun there was no response and then
they broke in the door and TO their
surprise they discovered that the man
VINO they had come TO call on, was
dead. The man slept until he died.
Some men viii change sometimes.
Most men die like they live. II you
live liar. you will die a liar; II you
live the life OF a thief, you will die a
thief. What reason have you for not
making the start tonight? Every day
places you closer TO eternity.
Once. when was holding a revival
IN a southern city, a young man came
running up to me and asked me to
come across the street as his brother
was dying and when l went into the
room, the young man was dying of
that dread disease, consumption.
got Bible and said to the young
man: DO You know what the Bible
means? and he replied 1T is too
late, said; No. II isn't. but your
brother wants you to be saved" and
the young man continued TO say that
IL was too late for him TO be saved.
and | kept telling him that IL was
never too late. Finally | said / don't
want 10 wear you out. but the young
man kept saying; II was too late and
ne died, saying II was too late. He
lived a sinner. and died a sinner You
are going 10 die like you live.
IL you are a swearing man. you
are going TO die swearing. Let me
know the life you live. and | will tell
you how you are going to die. Awake
tnou that sieepest, and get right with
God this evening
wonder how many there are here
Tonight that can say Bob" Jones,
give my heart TO God. Never mind
your church membership, because
there is no fooling with God. All
that can say that please stand up. All
osition. stand with US, while we pray.
The meeting then came 10 a close
with a prayer by the evangelist after
which he issued a call for converts
and large number went forward and
accepted Christ
