The service at the First Baptist
church last night was fruitful In re-
suits, there being three professions and
two additions to the church. DIR. L. Il.
Scarborough. who was called home on
account of the illness of his child.
sent a telegram yesterday that he
could not return. The pastor. Rev. w.
4. Rouse, preached on "Old Time Re-
ligion."
characterizlng "The Old Tire Relig.
ion," he said. 1T is known by the char
acter Of conviction it produces. Con-
viction for sin 10 the first and primal
consideration in inversion. II you
will read the New Testament you will
find in connection with every conver-
sion deep seated conviction. It was
so on the day OF Pentecost. Under the
preaching of Peter. the people were
pricked in their hearts, that is. they
were deeply convicted OF their sins,
and sought instruction, and we're con-
verted. Paul was convicted OF sin on
his way down to Damascus. For three
days and nights he could neither eat
nor sleep. Lydia. under the preaching
of Paul. was convicted, for the Lord
opened her heart that she attended to
the Word which was spoken A great
many people mistake conviction for
| conversion.
I'm the next place. this old time re-
ligion is known by the repentance
which attends it. Repentance is :
change of mind accompanied by .
change of win and judgment with re-
spect to sin. God in righteousness.
Quitting your meanness and joining
the church is not repentance. Reform
ing is not repentance. There must be
! sorrow for sin. hatred for sin, and quit
ting of sin because it is displeasing to
God. We need today revival Of old
time repentance. Wesley and Whit
field preached to the people and they

Under sermon by Edwsrds. the peo-
pie caught hold of the backs of tho
benches lest they should fall into hell.
THE kind of faith which attends IT,
There are three elements in saving
faith. First. there is an intellectual
element; one must hear and know OF
/. Jesus as Savior Second, there must
be the assent of the mind to all He
) taught. Third. there must be heart
reliance in Him as Savior One may
believe in all He taught from an intel
lectual viewpoint and perish unless NO
I exercises heart reliance in Him as
Lord and Savior
"The new heart 1t brings. The re-
:, generated man is made over from ths
center, recreated If you please, for our
text says (II Cor 5:199). If any man
be in Christ, he is new creature He
has new affections. new mind, new
will, a new judgment, new motive
a new desire. and there win be mani
fest a new life We love the things
we once hated, and hate the things VIC
once loved. We want to keep com
pany with Gods people.
