community for a long time. The en-
tire series of efforts by preacher and
singer were OF very high and digni
fled order Serious thoughts seemed
to be the food on which these workers
desired to feed the hearers, and moth.
ing was permitted to interfere or
lessen the deep impressions sought to
be made on the minds Of the public
Cry of Roman Jallor.
On Sunday morning a great congre-
cation heard DR.. Smiley on his theme,
"a voice from the prison, Acts l6S0
The evangelist told of that cry of the
Roman jailor who had so zealously
guarded and even prosecuted Paul and
S.las. His appeal to them to tell him
"What shall do to be saved" caused
mo time to be lost. They gave him
the word of the Lord, told him how to
comply. and the record shows that he
and his household believed and were
baptized. All this followed little
prayer meeting in that jail, just as all
conversions follow prayer. 1t was
prayer first and the teaching of the
word following which converted these
sinners.
The evangelist told of a young man
under death sentence in Philadelphia
who had his Bible all marked up with
passages telling of the love of God,
and closing with John 3:16.
Afternoon Services.
AT the afternoon services the evan
gelist, in telling of the best lodge on
earth, used Heb. 1922 to "a as his
text. He told of the early assembling
of the church, with Jesus as the medi-
ator; that while there are many man
made assemblages, or lodges, this was
a divine institution beginning in the
garden and surviving the flood
Sunday Night Sermon.
AT the Sunday evening services the
evan ist took two texts, Mark 3:2Sl
and q, "Verily | say unto you, all
sins srall be forgiven unto the sons
Of men, and blasphemies wherewith
severe they shall blaspheme; but he
that shall blaspheme against the Holy
Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is
in danger Of eternal damnation." And
Rev. 22;17, And the spirit and the
bride say, Come, and let him that Is
athirst come, and whosoever will let
him take the water of life freely"
When the first sin struck paradise !,
as from blue sky God gave promise !
Of plan of salvation, in that the seed |
Of the woman should bruise the head !
Of the serpent The sin referred to by
Mark has been considered the persist
snt refusal of hte sinner to hear the
sord the refusal to obey the convic-
ions of his own conscience and to put
he Spirit off "till some more con
yenient time"
The only safety from spiritual
leath or the objectionable sin is to
liant your feet firmly on the solid
ock of Gods salvation. This the final
all of the earnest evangelist to the
inners of Guthrie. k
