GOD KEEPS NO HALFWAY HOUSE.

Oh. you think If you had been in Jeru-
salem that day that you would have
stood by the side of Jesus in Pilots
judgment, and that you would have
spoken in His defense; that you would
have wiped that spittal from His face
when il struck: that You would have
walked with Him out to Calvary:
dragged His cross with you. Well you
don't know yourself. The same evil heart
of unbelief in you which leads you to
reject Jesus Christ and His gospel to-
day, with the records Of / 800 centuries
of woodworking power. would have
caused you to take your stand with that
bowling. blood-thirsty Jewish mob that
clamored for His life, and this very mo-
ment you will accept Him as your savior
or you will spurn and repudite Him this
very minute. You either join with me
and shout Bring forth the royal dia-
dam and crown Him Lord of ALL" or
Away with Him and away with Him."
one of the two.
Some people think they are not good
enough TO go to heaven or bad enough
to go to hell. God does not keep the
halfway house for any bunch on earth.
Hold on If Jesus Christ came to Wash
ington. would you be glad to see Him?
Would you appear glad. or would you
be really glad to welcome him?
Whether you would be glad or not is
the invaluable index to your character
He is always welcome where all is Well:
He is always welcome where purity
reigns. here honor is a guest; He is al
ways welcome where 4 man wants to be
kind and true to his wife OF the wife to
her husband. There is a verse of Scrip
ture that reads like this: When Herod.
the King, heard it. he was troubled" and
the fellow that is living like old Herod
did always gets on his nerve when Jesus
Christ is around, and John the Baptist
said it is not lawful for you TO have your
brother Phillips wife living with you.
When Herod heard that Jesus was in
town. he was troubled; there's a reason.
like Postum. (Applause.l I say the man
who is living like Herod is always trou-
bled; he is always troubled when he
hears that Jesus is in town.
Jesus is always in the way of the fel-
ow living in sin; Jesus is always in the
way Of the adulterers; He is always in
he way of the thief or libertine. He is
always in the way OF the white SLAYER;
He is always in the way Of the oppressor
,r infdel, OF the sneerer, and blasphem-
'us Would the strength of Jesus Christ
worry and trouble you? BY this you may
snow all that eternity will ever reveal
% you.

ization like the Young Mems Christian
Association or like the Young Women's,
or the Baptist Young People, or the Ep-
worth League, or the Christian Endeavor,
or the. Church Home and Foreign Mis-
sionary societies have made Caesar their
master. His memory produced no
churches. no creeds; his memory pro-
duced no hospitals no asylums, no OLD
folks homes, no orphanEes, no homes
for the wayward, no institutions for the
blind, the deaf. the lumb. and the poor.
No philosopher ever found in Caesar n
key to unlock the rituals OF life and
death. His name is not chant-d ts.day
in vaulted cathedrals. 1t is not sung by
the peasant in his cabin on the mountain
side. 1t is not lisped by little children
and when they kneel they don't say
Now lay me down to sleep; I pray
thee Caesar my soul to keep" Oh, no;
not at all.
But hold on. l could stand here all

it,, and l could draw comparisons be-
tween the influence OF Jesus Christ and
the influence of every other character in
human interest, and if ! did would only
add evidence to the argument you are
already forced TO admit that it is true
that the influence of Jesus is different
from the influence of any other chara -
ter, because IL is personal ana intimate
relationship with the individual Chris
tianity has always been a personal re-
ligion. I can't save your soul. II I
could. there wouldn't be a sinner go out
unsaved this afternoon. II l could save
a man today, there wouldn't be a man
or woman go to bed tonight on the road
to hell. I know l couldn't eat your
supper for you, and l couldn't drink
water for you, and II you refuse to eat
with Jesus Christ, there is no power that
will keep you out Of hell and you are
eternally damned. Jesus was no organ
izer like Caesar. and He formulated no
plans. He drilled no emissaries. He in
no social machinery. He had
no framework or scaffolding around His
kingdom. He taught no school. He had
no set time or place where He preached.
He wrote no books. He did not go out.

ofttimes in a brutal manner by the town

the day when Jesus was in town was
the day when the people had a chance

Eurt Heir 70 Bic Estate.

Sioux Falls.-Farm land and person
al property to the value OF more than
$4,000 is awaiting a claimant as the
result of the sudden death last week.
of John Cannon, a pioneer settler Of
Hamlin county, a bachelor, who was
found dead in the modest little cabin
on one of his farms. The county au-
thorities, after a search for relatives
of the dead man, located a sister in
New York City, and the property left
by Cannon doubtless will go to her.
The larger portion Of the estate of the
dead man consisted of W. quarter
sections of fine farm land-320 acres
which is valued at not less than $40 an
acre.
