The heavy guns in the revival
campaign were opened last night.
That telling shots were fired is ap-
parent from reports from several Of

brotherhood Of the church was in
creased by AZ new members. At the
First Baptist one conversion was re-
ported while four asked for the
prayers of the congregation and four
gave testimony of their faith in God.
Interest in the services at the In
diana Avenue Christian church last
night took a decided impetus with
the coming Of the Rev. O. A. Tones
of Fort Wayne. Rev. Tones is pas
tor of the First Christian church
there and was scheduled TO be in

the services. but illness in his family
prevented his coming.

Wednesday at the afternoon meeting

X. DOugherty asked all that were
contemplating divorce actions, who
had been divorced. or were not even
interested personally, to attend the
afternoon meeting. Because of the
large number of divorces granted an
nually in the local courts ii is ex-
pected that the topic will be of more
than normal interest.
In order TO bring about interest in
the revival at the First Baptist
church, Commute preliminary ser
vices in charge of the various de-
partments of the church and individ-
uals, have been arranged. Every
night last week the services prelim-
mary to Rev c. A Decker's sermons
were led by section of the church.

STORY Of BLIND

Rev. C. A. LippinCOtt Says the

1T is not the extent of a mans

Iy consecrated yourself 70 Him and
resolved to use all the time He gives
you 10 advantage" The text of
the sermon was taken from Paul.
5:6. Reckoning the time
Rev. Byrer said in part:
I'VE should make the most OF our
opportunities. If everyone here to-
night had only used all the time
that God has given him. to the Cest
OF his ability, how much better we
would be.
What did Paul mean by re
deeming time? We know what IL
means TO redeem a note. or to re-
deem property, but how many Of US
have ever tried TO follow the advice
of the apostle and redeem the time
we have frittered away2 What do
the words of Paul mean? Simply
that we are TO use the days God
gives US in exactly the manner 'in
which he intended US to use them.
We cannot really redeem time, but
we may make up for it by putting
forth double effort in the future.
Many Misuse Time.
cit is downright wicked the way
some people misuse their time. I
once knew a man whom l met every
morning for months and inquired:
What are you doing now?' and
every time he replied that lie could
find nothing to do. I knew another
man who was not out OF the peni-

time. others can never do anything
but loaf around corners complaining
and expectorating. If this latter
class could only add the necessary
hydrogen to the gas they use they
could illuminate the whole city.

life is used in an evil way-lost be-
fore God and man. Some people

Let us ask ourselves tonight,
Have we improved all of our Chris
tlan opportunities? Has there been
any church service which you lost
that you need not to have lost? 1
know you are all busy people and
improve your time, but have you
the full measure which Christ
wishes you to have? Will you not
renew your covenant with God to-
night and promise TO use to advant-
age the time which He has given
you?"
After the sermon 10 members of
the congregation arose and prom
ised to redeem the time they have
lost and TO work TO the best of their
ability for the church during the
next two weeks.

The Importance OF sound doc
trine cannot be overestimated. Prove
All things and hold fast to the
things that are good. said St Paul.
People are very easily impressed by
any form Of religion i'm these mod
eru days. They should realize the
importance of sound doctrine and
strive for the true word OF God,
which can only be found i'm the
Bible.
There are two forms OF doctrine,
the sound and the unsound. The
first is the true form of belief and
is the word of God. The second is
the untrue doctrine and is the false
manufacture OF man, who in most
instances is maintained for their
own gain. This is why ] warn YOU.

DEVIL EXPOSES
SIN To WORLD
God is Not to be Defeated in
His Purpose Says Rev.
C. A. Decker.

One conversion and four testimo-
mails were made and four people
asked that prayers be said for them
at the services at the First Baptist
church last night. B A. Anderson,
deacon Of the first ward, was IN
charge Of the Commute preliminary
service, during which Paul Anderson
sang two solos. Mrs. ]. a Rode also
sang a solo.
Rev. c. A. Decker talked on Your
Sin Will Find You Out" taking as
his text, IF We will not do so. we
have sinned against the Lord and
behold your sins will find you out"
IF the time has not yet come
when your sin has found you out.
there is going to be a time" said
Rev. Decker. That is one of sins
characteristics. That is the way the
devil works. He pictures a sin as
beautiful thing and leads you to
commit it. He then exposes you 70
the whole world and he doesn't care
when or where he does it.
Is Not Machine.
when the devil exposes YOU. sin
doesn't look as attractive as il did
when it was first being considered.
Sin is its own detective. 1t finds it
self out. II leads us from one thing
to another. First we commit a sin
and then we commit another TO hide
the first one. 1t goes on and on un-
til there is nothing but sin in our
hearts. Sin is the most deceitful
thing in the world, for it is of the
devil and he is the root of all evil.
LAS far as we know the universe
is built on moral lines. God has
constructed universe which some
time will be ruled by morality. #
that is true. sin must eventually be
exposed in this universe, the same as
ii is in a community. The universe
is going TO throw off sin just like the
human body does when a poison
Gets INTO it, Some day the universe
is going TO get rid of it by elimina-
ton
When God has His way. sin is
going TO be gotten rid of or the peo-
pie who sir are going TO be gotten
rid Of. God is not going to be mock
our sins in His face. There is not a
thing in which there is more truth
than that statement Cod is not go
ing TO be defeated i'm His purpose.
Christ is the one Who has come to
fix this thiug up for US.
Came TO Save Men.
He has come down here where
morality and immortality are fight
ing. where God and the devil are
battling for supremacy, where men
are tearing each other. TO save men.
There has never been "A person
living who did not need some read
justment No matter how long sin
stands, it is going TO find YOU OUT.
We cannot look into each others
hearts and see the sins that are
there. but you can be sure that Col
sees them. If God knows about this
thing. what are YOU going 10 do
about it,
Tonight the deacons of the second
and third wards will be in charge Of
the preliminary services.

CHRIST CAME To
SAVE OUR WORLD
One Aim Was to Make Earth
Better Place to Live On
Says Minister.

Christianity is keeping company
with Christ" said the Rev. John p.
Hale of Lafayette, who has been as
sisting with the revival work. at the
Hope Presbyterian church last even
ing. and if we live the life He would
have US, we can easily see that this
is true: for Christ came into this
world TO clean il up and to make d
better world out Of this one. He did
not come merely TO have us prepare
for a future world: but He came to
save this one. Each man has a duty
TO build up the world for the glory
of God in addition TO his duty to at
tain heaven"
Before the services FIVE new MEM
bers Joined the church and after the
sermon three more young people
were added TO the long list of con-
rerts which have been reported from
the Hope church. The sermon de-
livered by the Rev. John 2. Hale was
responsible largely for the three con-
versions for he made an earnest ap-
peal to the people TO join with God
and TO receive the benefits Of relig-
ion i'm this world as well as in the
world to come For after ALL" he
said. there is nothing in the teach
ing Of Christianity which does not
ultimately bring worldly happiness
and as "a matter of fact there could
not be; for the obeying of Gods law
is merely living mp TO our nature;
and this could never produce unhap-
piness.
Many Obstacles.
However" he continued in part,
this does not mean that there are
no obstacles TO be met with in the
following Of the teachings of Christ;
for there is 70 program which de-
mands more of a man than tht pro-
gram of Christ. Christ said we were
TO love Him even more than father
or mother. and that we had to hold
Him first in all deeds. II is relig-
ion for men. Ii is not for the non
vertebrates. it is not for those who
lack the sand and the courage of
their convictions.
we should clean city politics.
fight saloons. vice. all kinds Of war
Christians" he said in emphasizing
the fact that Christ came into this
world TO better the world itself as
well a. 10 better the spiritual condi-
tiOns OF the people in the world.
The same laws have 10 be enforced
on earth thai are enforced in
heaven; SO while we should keep the
life to come before us in vague
way. we should live up 10 the laws
which we see directly in front Of us
and the rest Will naturally follow. &"
The Rev. John p. Hale. who spoke.
is working for the union OF all Pres
byterian churches throughout the
state in order that all of the
churches may be connected. in a
physical way as we'll as in a spiritual
way and before the sermon he gave
the benefits and the plans OF the
campaign he is leading in this state.
