The evangelist announced that he
would speak this evening on The /
Deity of Jesus Christ" III you
know OF any one" be said, who has
any honest doubts as to the deity
of Christ, please have them here to
hear this sermon"
Evangelist Haudensehield said he
would take two verses of scripture
as a text. The first OF these. he
said, brings condition, and the
second brings a cure. The first
scripture read was the twenty-third |
verse OF the third chapter of Ro-
mans, For all have sinned. and |
come short of the glory of God"
The evangelist declared that he
doubted If any man, speaking in |
his own strength. or I'm his own |
wisdom, or In his own name, would |
have dared utter such words. But |
the text says that all have sinned. |
ticular number. but all have sinned. |
He said that Paul did not mean by
this declaration that all have gone
down to the very lowest depths of
aggregation, but he means that all
men are sinners. He reiterated the
statement he made a few nights
ago that there was no difference In
the guilt of sin. but the difference
was in its Nervousness. He assert
ed that human nature unassisted by
divine grace can never measure up
to Gods demands You might as
well say, he declared. that man
could take hold OF his boot straps
and lift himself up as to say that
he can save himself, lie said that
while all men have sinned their sins
are not of tho same degree,
To show the cure for sin the
evangelist read the ninth verse Of
the first chapter of First John. If
we confess our sins, he is faithful
and just to forgive us our sins, and
to cleanse us from all unrighteous
ness"
He declared that as the first
verse puts all under sin the second
verse offers a way OF escape.
III any persons 20 away from
this house tonight with sin in their
lives and hearts, he said. lit is

but because they viii not meet the
conditions. | say to you that II you

ence how dark Is your sin he viii
blot out your transgressions and
write your name IN the Lambs
book OF life. The only reasonable
thing you can do Is to come TO Christ
and have your sins blotted out"
He said there were three ways to
deal with sin. The first is the way
the world deals with sin, the sec
ond is the way the law deals with
sin, and the third is the way the
Son OF God deals with sin.
He used as an example the seribes
and pharisees bringing the woman
guilty of adultery before Christ 10
see whether he would deal with her
under the Jewish Law or under the
Roman law. He declared that sin
Is an awful thing and no one had
to read the Bible TO find that out.
All that is needed 10 know about
the terrible effect OF sin can be
heard on the streets or read In the
daily newspapers. In discussing the
case OF the woman brought before
Christ the evangelist said that God
knows no two standards. He de-
clared that what is wrong for the
man Is wrong for the woman. and
