The discourse
began with the declaration that ours is
a day in which the necessity for sin
atonement is disputed, disbelieved, by
Jews. Gentiles and Christians. The
orthodox Jew and the orthodox Chris
tian. therefore are in substantial agree
ment with the Scriptures, and the IN
orthodox in agreement of opposition.
The latter agree that there is no such
thing as Original Sin. and that hence
there could he no such thing as making
an atonement or satisfaction to Justice
on its behalf
The Basis Of Disbelief.
Two things have contributed to this
unscriptural view: % The agnostic
Jew not only disputes the Bible as
authority on the subject, but admits
that if the sacrifices commanded by
the Levitical code for Sin Atonement
be necessary. then the Jewish people
have had no Sin Atonement i'll any
sense of the word for more than eight
cen centuries; for Sin Atonement must
be made according TO certain specified
conditions or not at all. The loss Of
the Ark of the Covenant and the de-
struction of Jerusalem were among
the disasters which have prevented
the carrying out OF Noses instructions
respecting the Atonement Day.
o. Since the destruction Of Jerusa-
lem in \. D. 30. the Jewish nation
has been scattered, ana as a result all
official records and genealogies of the
Jewish people are destroyed. There
fore no one can prove his descent from
Aaron, and hence cannot make 4 Sin
Atonement on the Atonement Day.
Thus We see that it is impossible for
Jews properly 10 observe the Atone
ment Day. although an outward cere-
mony is kept up. On the tenth day
of the seventh month the Jew hsura-
lively Acknowledges that the merit Of
the previous sacrifice has expired.
We sympathiZe with his position but
would suggest that nothing is gained
by deceiving themselves into the sup
position that this observance harmo-
nizes them in any sense of the word
with the Almighty. The sooner they
recognize this, the sooner Will they
reach the proper heart condition TO
realize that their calamities are due
to the fact that the sins of more than
1900 years rest upon them uncanceiled-
When they comprehend the situation.

Next it was shown that all the world (

he necessity OF Il sacrifc!al death for

cancellation Of sin and the restitution
If the sinner to Divine favor. The
o-called New TheoloSists repudiate the
all of man. the Ransom and the Resti-
ution. claiming thar nothing was lost
md that all we have is gain.
These worldly wise cannot deny that
leath is in the world and that the tend
,ncy of sin is toward death. Despite
heir theories statistics demonstrate
hat our race is daily becoming weak
r. mentally. morally and physically.
t is for them TO explain how these
acts fit their evolution theory. II
The Bible View of Sin Atonement.
The Pastor then explained at length
he Scriptural view of Sin Atonement-
according to Gods Word. sin is viola
ion of Divine Law and the penalty IS
cath. Adam was created perfect and
inless. Obedience to Divine Law was
equired of him as the price of ever
lsting life. Disobedience brought upon
i'm the death sentence. His race was
/ his loins when he sinned and thus
' heredity share his death penalty.
But God in mercy provided n way for
lan's relief As the first man alone
nd sinned actually. so one Redeemer !

ice. The Man Christ Jesus gave
himself a Ransom for alT'-Adam's
lsterity. He antityped the bullock Of !
