Mans Place in the World That
Shall Be was the subject of the SER
mon by Rev. G. L. Trawin of the First
Baptist church Monday night. 1t was
the third of the pastors sermons from
the Epistle OF the Hebrews. There was
large congregation at the church. Mr..
Trawin spoke in part as follows:
The present world is not Gods
masterpiece. 1t is today Il composite
of good and evil seething and suffer
ing in the melting pot of the centuries
until the coming of the day of the
Lord when it shall pass through the di-
vine crUcioie to emerge as a new earth
wherein dWelletA righteousness.

subsection to angels but to man. What
is man that he should be deemed
worthy of such an honor Back to
the beginning. we go for Gods answer.
Let us make man in our image and
after our likeness man is next of kin
TO God. Thou madest him to have do
minion over the works of thy hands,
thou crownedst him with glory and
enjoy Gods favor for he is his next of
kin and Gods love never faileth. He
shall rule for God has said so and the
Eternal cannot lie.
But almost as soon as he was
crowned, sin snatched away his crown,
broke his scepter and exiled him from
his kingdom SO degraded did man
become that he was soon bowling in
the dust before the craven images of
the very creatures he was commanded
to have dominion over. Anarchy and
rebellion had permeated his whole
realm. Centuries passed. Those who
were the chosen people of God were
sitting in encouragement and in dark
ness, while heather nations ruled over
hem.
CHRIST PUT ALL ASIDE.
Then in the fulness of time Jesus
Christ was born. In heaven he had
been crowned with glory and honor as
the Son of God. He laid all this aside
when he came to earth in order that
he might in the sight of men be crown
ed with glory and honor as the Son Of
Man. All things were subject to him.
Winds and waves did his bidding. Wat
err blushcd to wine at his glance. Trees
WlthcrCd ut his touch. Shoals of fishes
came at his call. Disease, death and
devils owned his sway.
The question. What is Man? is
answered in him. Already the KEYS of
death and hades are dangling at his
girdle. All of the coronets of empire
will soon be placed on his brow. He
Is the representative of the new age.
The first fruits of the graves coming
harvest. IN him we shall be crowned
with glory and honor In him regain
our forfeited dominion over earth. DR.. !
T. b. Meyer suggests a thrilling Sc
luence to his theme by saying, Some
lay we may discover that this world Ia |
The nursery of the universe But |
Jesus warrants the thought in the pro |
mise that we shall sit with him as
1oint-heirs in his universe wide domin- /
Ion. Miracle of divine omnipotence
that the Son of God should stucp to |
