JOHNS GREAT CONFESSIONAL

"Then went out to him (John) Jerusalem, and all
Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan,
"And baptized of him in Jordan confessing their

They did not have merely little water sprinkled on

Merely to have little water sprnkled them is mighty

to be plunged under the water The dirty lowdown sin
need to be put under three mesand even then do
not up Clean and the fashionable hypocres like
to have little water sprnked their noses because they
not like be put clear under the water And then they
call sprinkling Baptism, but there is not any baptism
about it.
Now the seventh verse
'But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Saddu-
They were of the fashionable churches of his time
they represented all that fashionable in religion just
the Methodists and the Presbyeran etc. represent the
fashionable churches; you know, they are ''it

introduce to you gentleman who is thinking of coming
into ZION, and who is very distinguished gentleman"
said Excuse me, sir do not to meet him; but if
there old washerwoman around here who wishes to
shake hands with bring her up not looking for

Now John the Baptist true of God; and
when he those Pharsees and Sadducees he knew that
they had plenty of and that they could contribute
quite little toward his salary; but he said to them when

You cannot walk in crooked path, and go to Heaven.
"And the same John had his raiment of camers hair
and leathern grde about his lons; and his meat was
ocusts and wild honey
You see John the Baptist very plain and simple IN

There need for great sermons being preached

THE DEFILER OF HIS BODY WILL BE DESTROYED
The Bible tells that the person who dees his or her
body will be destroyed and it looks to very much
though, in few years. everybody in Chicago the women
we'll the men, will be smoking, for the women are
making rapid progress in that drecton-especaly the
society ladies' The average young nowadays thinks
that he cannot be an unless he is smoking cgaret or
a cigar pipe Well, I want to say to you that man
who manufactures tobacco thief and scoundrel and
who sells tobacco is rasca-and want to add that
any who sells tobacco will sink to the bottomless pits
Of hell and upon his skirts will be the blood Of the slain
boys and any church that will tolerate within it's fold
who sells tobacco is church that has gone to the devil
Think Of having to live with who smokes tobacco
Well would far rather sleep with dozen hogs any time
and then when he puts top of that whisky and beer and
pork and oysters and onions-well that is pretty bad
mess Humanity for the most part is dirty, sinking

If you here this afternoon to have present what
YOU think then you will be disappointed; and you might
just well be thousand miles away from here, because
here to smash your thinkinguness it is in accord
with the will of God The only kind of man who is real
benefactor to the people, either in the pulpit editor
of paper, political speaker is man who goes in
advance of the people and leads the people, and who has
thoughts to present that just the opposite to what the
people usually think
THE GREAT NEED OF ALL PEOPLE KNOWLEDGE
OF THE TRUTH
It is my desire that you get hold of these thoughts
There the trouble with Chicago today there the trouble
with the State Illinois, there is the trouble with the United
States there the trouble with the world in general The
greatest need of America today is the need of preachers
who have message and who will deliver it, of newspapers
that will tell the truth and that will not be merely slaves
of mammon of statesmen who will forward and present
that which is righno matter people rise and mob
them.
When the Lord Jesus the Christ sat down in the old
Synagogue at Nazareth after He had read the scripture
lesson, He looked at them and sad 81 tell of TRUTH
many widows Israel in the days of Elijah when the
heaven shut for three years and six months, when
great famine throughout the and but unto of
them Elijah sent unto Sarepta city of Sidon
unto woman who was widow And He further said to
hem Many lepers in Israel in the time of Elijah the
prophet but of them ceansed saving Naaman the
Syrian" And when He got through talking to them they
ready to kill Him.
And that kind of clear forcefu preaching is just what
needed in Chicago today and when does speak the
truth he will not be received Wilbur Chapman-but
John Alexander Dowie was at Hammond, and at Oak
Park and the West Side and people generally not only
do want the truth in Chicago but they ready to kill
any who will preach the truth to the people
