Resurrection Story of Christ be Heard Again Sermon

I that the Ransom for the sins OF the
whole world given at Calvary was ac-
ceptable. a full satisfaction OF the
claims Of Justice against the race OF
mankind. so that now He can be just
and yet the Justifer Of all that believe
in Jesus.--Acts Il; 81; Romans 3: 26
In Verse 20. let Christians observe
what the various creeds Of Christen-
dom ignore. and what is in direct an
tagonism to their teachings; namely
that the risen Christ was the First
fruits OF them that slept'-that our
Lord was the first to experience q
resurrection in the full sense of the
term-a resurrection TO perfection and
everlasting life. True, some. before
Him were temporarily awakened
again to relapse into death; for ex-
ample Lazarus. Jairus' daughter. the
son Of the widow Of Main. the Sunam-
mites son. etc. But these were only
partial illustrations Of resurrection, to
assure man OF the Divine Power to ac-
complish II fully in due time.
The Scriptures Logical.
Mark the logic OF these facts II
Christ was the first 10 be resurrected
then no one was resurrected before
Him: and if, as shown in the preced-
ing verses. those who have fallen
asleep in Christ have perished except
they be restored to life by resurrec-
tiOn. and If those who die in Christ
"Sleep in Jesus" until His Second
Coming 1t is plain that none of them
went to heaven when they died They
were dead. they slept in Jesus. they
rested i'm hope; and they must remain
so until the time appointed for their
resurrection-at Christ's Second Ad-
VENT Thessalonians 4 IA.
David hath not ascended into the
Heavens" Daniel must wait. and
stand in his lot at the end of the days.
Abraham must wait his time for the
possession of the Promised Land. Job
must tarry until the wrath OF this
"evil day" be oyerpast st. Paul. and
with him all who love the Lords ap-
pearing must await the fullness of
time for the reward OF their faithful
ness.-Acts 2; "a; rs; Daniel 10: IS
Job IA: 1916. 21; Timothy 4: s.
All this is in perfect accord But il
is in irreconcilable conflict with cur
rent theology, in whose theories. logi-
cally considered. there is no place
whatever for the resurrection. II a
man goes to Heaven at death, and is
glad ito shuttle off this mortal coil, n
which some call his prison although
he stays in it as long as possible
why in the name of reason should he
hope for reunion with his body? The

$4,000 LOSS IN
ELLSWORTH FIRE

Ellsworth. Me-. Fep. lone of the
most spectacular fires in Ellsworth in
recent years caused a $4,000 loss on
Monday night when the E. E. Rowe
carriage plant in School street was to-
tally destroyed. The fire was discov-
cred by a passerby at 9.15. The origin
is unknown but is thought to have been
in the Workshop on the first floor. The
firemen fought valiantly but were un-
able to save the buildings as the flames
had good Roadway when discovered,
but confined the fire to the Rowe plant,
saving many surrounding buildings.
The Rowe plant had been familiar
landmark for many years, having been
established many years ago. The loss
is partially covered by $500 insur-
ance. About Is men are thrown out
of employment for the present.
