SEEK DILIGENTLY AND FIND SATISFACTION

If you desire to have full salvation and if you desire
receive your healing then you must lose yourselves be
completely lost in Gods glorious work that you will not
know that you have body Yes; that is the to get
salvation and that is the way to get healing-and it is
the only way
If could only get you people to the place where you
would again think of your diseases and of your Attic
tons if could only get you engrossed in the Seventy
wor-n rescuing poor, fallen humanity-hen your lame
and your Affections would all disappear.
We ought to be completely lost in Gods service. All!
yes, lost in Gods service Dying! What do you know
about the process Of dyng Jesus sad Except grain Of
wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth by itself,
alone"
AS look at you this afternoon, how many of you
abiding alone? Are there not of you here this after
who say, lord, not abiding alone Ii you
are abiding alone to how many people you point
who have been saved and brought out of darkness into light
through your nstrumentay? If you only say, Not
any," then you abiding by YOURSELF alone You can
not die without producing fruit.
All the man who stands and breaches and Pleads until
he feels that he will reel and falwill live than will
the man who sits in rockngcha taking such "great
care" of himself.
My hearers, the only to live to die for others.

PEOPLE PERISH BECAUSE OF UNBELIEF

There is in Jude in support of this thought
and as read it this morning, it impressed as never
before, and want to call your attention to where it
tells God brought the people out of the Land of Egypt
nevertheless He allowed them to perish because of their
belief And read that this morning. it seemed that
flood of tears would burst from my eyes, pass
before me multitude whom God had brought out of apos
tasy and had delivered them from disease and death and
from sin of every kind and had brought them into zoN
All! yes what will happen to them? Some are pershing
through unbelief.
II will therefore put you in remembrance, though We
this how that the Lord having saved the people
out of the land of Egypt aerward destroyed them that
believed not'-Jude s.
Now you Just think of that verse. Can you think of
the condition of many people who brought out OF
Egypt into zIoN Many of the people in ZION CITY today
would have been in hell had not been for ZION Is that
not true in your case Mrs. -?
MRS. --: eyes, know it is true"
GENERAL OvERsEER: Yes, and it is true in hundreds
upon hundreds of other cases. If it had not been for ZION
truths and principles where would they have been this
afternoon? know what I am talking about and know
where am going.
There are some terrible judgments awaiting those who,
in the face of light will lift their hands to destroy this
City. Last Lords Day morning saw Waukegan doctor
up here he went down in the train that did, and
said to myself Woe unto the Aposate who trape the
blood of Christ under his feet! All there is judgment
awaiting such people, Many people live though there
were God; there is the trouble.
God is working wonders And He will continue TIC
work wonders, so long His people faithful.
May God help you this afternoon to mediate upon
what it to be in the Image of Cod Think of it! In
the Image of God HIMSELF and in the image OF the angels

In the eighth chapter of john Jesus sad Eye are OF
YOUR father the devil But two classes OF people are
mentioned all the way through the Bible after sin entered
into the world the of God and the sons of Satan
the righteous and the snfuhe sheep and the goatsthe

his deeds.
Do all those things mean anything to you? Have you
ever gotten right the kernel of the Gospel OF the
Lord Jesus the Christ?

ALL THINGS WROUGHT THROUGH FAITH

All the way through the eleventh chapter of the Book
of Hebrews it is by faith by fath and it is by faith
that your and daughters shall be saved is by faith
that your unconvered husbands and wives shall be saved
it is by faith that your relatives will be brought into the
lark of safety and it by faith that all things shall be
accomplished Yes, by faith 20, We of little faith!'

parents who are Of the eect class for taking her hus
band from her The fact that the dozen Of prominent
young men, disappeared shows the character Of the de
fense the parents would make thoroughly that needs
no elucidation. The dispatch reads
Everett Wash, May 10.-A dozen prominent young
men around town. said to have been Subpoenaed in the
sensational $4,000 alienation Of affection suit brought by
18yearod Esther Aldeen Lyen against her wealthy par

editorial is all the comment needed on the dispatch
II follows
eve have saved the soul of the man that killed,
We have turned to shrive the thief;
We restored the pride of the man that lied
And we gave him our belief;
But for her that fell we have fashioned hell
With faith all stern and just
1t was so of old; and no man has told
What our Lord wrote in the dust
For the men who thieved, and who killed, and lied
Who have slain the woman's soul
We have worked and prayed and have seen them made
All clean all pure and all whole
But we drive her out with righteous shout
In our Pharisaic trust
So the man goes fTee-but we did not see
What our Lord wrote in the dust
