SERMON
At ME. CHURCH

No exaggeration is made use of
when this is said of the deliverance
of Rev. Mr.. Thrower at the revival
service in the First M. E. church,
South, last evening. 1t was really a
great sermon. Great in intellectual
power, eloquent expression, and spirit
ual fervor and JUNCTION. AS one of our
thoughtful church members put it,
"That is the best sermon / have heard
in a long time" 1t ranked well with
the utterances of leading pulpit ora
tors and bishops.
The preachers subject was, "a Spir-
itual Vision" using as his text, John
xi:40, Jesus saith unto her, Said 1
not unto thee, that if thou would be-
lieve, thou shouldest see the glory of
God" The speaker said that this
earth was the only place where unbe-
lief existed. Honest doubt cannot long
remain in a pure heart. There is no
unbelief in heaven. Honest doubt does
not exist at all in an impure heart.
There is no infdelity in hell. No un-
belief need be in this world. AS surely
as watch implies a matchmaker, and
a city sky-scraper implies an archi-
tect and builder, just so certainly does
this world imply a world-builder, an
infinite God.
1t is not true that it does not mat
ter what we believe just so we are
honest in it. A believer in Moham-
med is Mahometan. A believer in
Buddha is a Buddhist. A believer in
Brigham Young is a Mormon. A be-
lever in Jesus Christ is a Christian.
Jesus Christ is Gods answer to the
souls hunger. The correspondent of
the eye is the light; of the ear is
sound; of bodily hunger and thirst,
food and water; Of the soul is God in
Jesus Christ.
The pure in heart see God in nature
and in providence. But especially do
they see God in the redemption and
salvation of mans eternal soul. This
spiritual vision becomes ours when we
behold Jesus as our personal Saviour.
Spiritual vision is the greatest thing
and the most needful thing in the
world. "a graveyard is about the dull
est place in the world, and SO is a
back slidden church."
A moving incident related was the
salvation of poor, dying, outcast
girl, which occurred under Mr.. Throw
er's ministry in Tampa. An excellent
Monday night congregation was pres
|ent and many expressed a desire for
this spiritual vision and the deepening
The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1917-10-23

out the entire audience. A number
bore witness to the saving power of
Jesus Christ.
Mr.. Thrower's subject for this ev-
ening is great one, "Twice Born
Men," This is real opportunity to
hear a masterful discussion and to re-
ceiye and give out great spiritual
blessing. The large choir from differ
ent churches is doing some excellent
singing of hymns new and old. Ser
vices every day at and p. m. You
are heartily invited to come and bring

Farmer Stew.

Pound flour into both sides of a
round steak, using as much as the
meat will take up. This may be done
with meat FOUNDER or with the edge
of heavy plate. Fry in drippings,
butter or other fat, in Scotch bowl,
or if more convenient in an ordinary
iron kettle or a frying pan; then add
water enough to cover it. Cover the
dish very tigotly so that the steam
cannot escape and allow the meat to
simmer for two hours or until it is
tender. One advantage of this dish is
that ordinarily it is ready to serve
when the meat is done as the gravy
is already thickened. However, if .
large amount Of fat is used in the fry
ing, the gravy may not be thick enugh
and must be blended with flour.
