LOWELL HEIGHTS M. {.
BOASTS 80 CONVERTS

The 10 converts made at the
Lowell Heights NJ f. church Sun
day brings the total made there dur
ing the revival up 70 33. Seventeen
others were united with the church
Sunday. Rev. X. ]. Champion. the
evangelist, in the evening sermon
urged upon his audience immediate
action in the matter Of religion If II
hoped for salvation. He showed
from statistics that the chances for
conversion diminish with declining
years and illustrated this point by
calling on members Of his cOngre-
CATION who had not been converted
10 stand up. Only two OF those who
stood up had been converted after
they were 30 years old.
There were three converts at the
mems meeting in the afternoon. The
subject Of the sermon at this service
was The Prodigal Son"
There will be no services at the
Lowell Heights church tonight. but
services will be held every other
night during the week. The revival
will close next Sunday night An
important mothers meeting will be
held at the church Tuesday after

gregstion are invited 10 attend.

Story ofJonah
and Whale Held
True by Science

The broad and easy road leads
down 10 where the devil is waiting
20 catch YOU" warned Rev. ". A.
Brundige. pastor at the Indiana Ave
nue. Christian church, last night.
Man is something more than the
animals" declared Rev. Brundige.
He was made TO the image and
likeness of Christ. We have a right
TO expect good works from a man."
To illustrate his point, Rev Brund-
ice told the story of a violin that
was being offered in an auction. At
first the highest price that it could
command was 10 pounds and il was
laid aside. Later a great artist en-
tered and. picking up the instru-
ment, made beautiful music. When
II was agin offered for sale the vio-
lin was sold for a 100 pounds.
so it is often with men" summed
up the speaker. they are covered
and besmirched with the filth OF sin
until they are not recognize Bile.
Then they are cleansed by the blood
Of Christ and bring forth beautiful
works at the inspiration of the
Master
Il believe what Jesus said. We
must believe what Jesus said. At
tempts have been made TO ridicule
the story OF Jonah and the whale by
the discoveries OF modern science.
They say that a whale has a small
throat and is unable TO swallow a
man. In fact, modern science has
proved that 80 out Of "a different
species OF whales are able to swal-
low man. There are some things
in the Bible that we cannot under
stand. But with our mediocre minds
we cannot expect TO understand
everything. We do not know how
grass grows or why and yet il is a
fact which we have to believe"

SIN PUT US OUT OF
HARMONY WITH GOD
We should Know the UnfailinS Love
of God for Us, Declares
Minister.

Taking as his text many passages
from the Scriptures, the Rev. j. A.
Groves. special evangelist at the
Conference Memorial church, spoke
on The things we ought to know
and be certain about" He dwelt
principally on sin. I'VE ought 10
know sin when we see it and we
don't have to look very far TO see
it," said the preacher. Sin put us
out of harmony with God when
Adam ate the forbidden fruit in the
garden of Paradise and because OF
this. we are compelled to WORK, we
are afflicted with sickness and
death. and we are forced 10 labor
under sorrows and misfortunes. The
devil is the cause of all this because
ne is back of all sin. He is the
one that brought all of the trouble
into the world and he is the au-
thor of death and destruction.
Then. too, we must know Christ
We commit the greatest and most
objectionable offense against the Di-
vine Law when we reject Him. We
ought TO know the unfailing love OF
God for us. Stay inside the love OF
God and the devil can't get into
your heart.
we must know that death is
coming and it is up to us to pre-
pare for it. Some of us here are
fast going down, but at the same
tiroe we are going up. We are soon
TO go 10 the home that the Lord
has prepared for us. And this is
the purpose of the revival, 70 pre-
pare us for the life % come"
There will be a special service for
women only on Thursday afternoon
and the sermon will be THE Good
Samaritan Woman" There were
four converts last night.

TENDENCY TODAY
To EXCUSE SINS
Claim That MiSdeedS Are Due
to Brute Inheritance De-
CIared False.

That there is no excuse for sin
and that our sins are not mitigat-
ed if we excuse them because Of our
brute inheritance. was expressed in
the sermon of Rev. John S. Burns.
delivered at the Trinity Presbyterian
church last evening. Saloons. gam
bling dens. houses Of prostitution
were cited by the pastor as estab-
lishments which brutes do not have.
intimating that man does things
which the brute would not do He
said in part:
There is a tendency today TO
mitigate our sins-to excuse them;
to treat them lightly. Some would
even deny the existence of sin, say
ing that all is God, God is good.
Therefore there can be no evil. But
we know that all is not God. God
may be in all. And this does not
explain for us the fact of sin and
its terrible effects.
Some would say that sin is nee
essary 10 offset the good Just as the
shadows offset the light in a pic
ture. But if we say that of man we
would have to say that of God and
this is unthinkable. Sin is more
than negative evil II is positive,
active, communicating We cannot
excuse ourselves saying that sin is
necessary to offset the good.
Some would say that we are not
free moral agents--that we have
our life determined for us by outside
forces and so we are not responsible
for what we do. No child is given
the chance to choose its parents or
It's environment, that is true. And
il is true that these two things de-
termine 10 a great extent his sin or
his righteousness. But Just the
same we are conscious of choosing
and after having sinned we are con-
scious that we might have done 9TH
erwise and our conscience pricks US,
remorse stares US in the face. This
shows that we are guilty for having
willed TO do evil when we might
have willed 20 do good.
Then there are those who would
excuse their sin and blame it on
AudLl, WHO III TURN DldilcS IL vi Eve
and she blames il on the serpent.
But in our day we blame il on our
brute inheritance. saying that our
sin is the ape or the monkey in US
coming out. But this does not eX-
cuse us or does il mitigate our sin
for man does things that the brutes
would not do-man has perverted
the brute inheritance. No brutes
are guilty of having saloons or
gambling dens or houses of prosu-
tuition.
What we need TO do today is to
get vision of God like upto Isaiah
Of old Then we will cry out: Woe
is me for / am undone. for / am
man Of unclean lips and dwell in
the midst of unclean lips Then
will we cry like the publican in the
temple: God be merciful TO me, a
sinner

SAYS SINNER IS
MORAL BANKRUPT
Cannot be Saved Without
Help Of Outside Agent.
Pastor Declares.

A sinner is a moral bankrupt
and cannot save himself without the
aid Of an outside agent" said Rev
Melvin c. Hunt, pastor Of the Trim
ity NJ. E. church, Sunday evening
The preacher spoke to a large con
gregation, taking for his topic The
Atonement"
Jesus Christ suffered for man ir
this world and not with the man.
he said. Jesus is anxious TO helT
men in the world Of suffering and
sorrow. Jesus delivered man from
suffering when he liberated him
from sin. 1t was Jesus who suffered
for humanity and made endless life
after death possible.
"Atonement teaches US that every
sin committed must be expiated
There must be a satisfaction done
for IL before We can expect saliva
ton of the soul. If God did not
punish the guilty and those who sin
then a state of moral and spiritua
anarchy would result. The wages OF
sin is death.
only through the atonement OF
Jesus was il made possible for the
salvation Of the soul Jesus sacri-
feed himself and it was through His
mercy that man was reconciled with
God.
Through the atonement justice
was met. but it was necessary
through the sacrifice of heaven.
Jesus entered this world spotless
sinless. He came TO relieve man
from spiritual agony and torment.
I'VE cannot fully understand the
mystery Of the atonement; yet II
satisfied God for the broken law.
Reconciliation resulted and man
again was assured salvation.
For centuries God was sending
his prophets TO the people in the old
testament, who would expound the
teachings about Him, about His
graces; but the people fatty refused
TO listen and lived in sin until God
sent down his only son Jesus. who
made reparation TO God for the en-
tire world.
Services will be held at the Trim
ity NJ r. church every evening this
week. The campaign will close next
Sunday evening with a special pro
gram. Next Friday a special ser
mon will be delivered TO the young
people of the congregation. Next
Sunday afternoon the preacher viii
address the men OF the congregation
and preparations are being made to
accommodate a large number.
