.FURLON LAWN REVIVAL
DRAWING LARGE CROWDS
REV CARL MINOR IS PREACHING
TWICE EACH DAY TO CROWDED
HOUSES-GREAT GOOD RESULT.
ING FROM HIS SERMONS

The congregations at Furlow Lawn
church revival meetings are increasing
with each service, and the interest is
increasing as well. Rev. Carl Mino4
who is doing the preaching, has re
ceived most cordial hearing, and h $
sermons being thoroughly spiritual ID
logical have been uplifting to all who
have heard him.
His sermon yesterday afternoon on
The Charter of Prayer" was a fine
exposition of the 18th verse of the if
teenth chapter Of the Gospel according
t. John: IF we abide in m and my
words abide in you, We can ask VIVA.
ye will and it shall be done unto yoL.'
He urged upon his hearers tae
thought of prayer as a necessity of
spiritual life and of Christian infll-
ence. He emphasized the idea of priv
ilege of prayer as well. The true ba-
sis Of prayer he said is the fatherhoo !
Of God, the mediatorial work of Christ.
and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
He urged that Christians so harmon
lie their lives with the Divine will tina:
their bodies might become fit temples
of the spirit.
At the night service Mr. Miner spoke
on Soul Winning using as text
James 500. He brought to the atten-
ton of his hearers two main thoughts,
the essentials of soul saving and the
how of soul winning. The Successful
soul winner, he said, must have a clean
heart, must have the joy OF Chris 8
salvation, must realize that souls az
lost, and further that God will hold us
accountable if we fail to try to win
others for him. AS to the method IF
soul winning he very forcefu1y declar.
ed that this must be through prayer,
through personal touch and through
the power of personally consecrated
life Mr.. Minor has a most charminE
manner, and is himself a delightful.
fellow as well as a splendid preacher
The services today are at 4 p. m. anu
1880 p. m. A cordial invitation is en-
tended to all to attend.
