PETTY JEAL0USIES ARE
ROUTED BY REVEALS
Make for Cooperation and Better
Spirit Among Church
Members.

wilt Thou not revive us again
that Thy people may rejoice in Thee, -
was the text used by Rev. w. II.
Freshley in his sermon at the First
Evangelical church last night.
There is nothing which will help
the church so much as "A revival
and any kind of needs will be sup
piled by it," said DR.. Freshley. If
vice. sin and wtckedness come to be
evident. there is nothing which will
stamp them out as certainly as a
revival.
When Is a revival needed -, he
asked and then supplied the answer.
When the meetings Of the congre-
cation become superfiuous. it is very
evident that there is need OF one.
We cannot love Coo when We do
not love one another and a revival
Will bring this love among the mem
bers. II will burn out the emnity
which is so detrimental 10 progress.
Where there is jealousy and friction,
they Will be wiped out. When the
people are too busy for the word
OF God and when the sins OF the
world come into evidence in the com
munity then indeed u a revival
needed"

SIN IS Al WAYS
MADE ALLUR|MG
Criminals and Sinners Are the
Product of Growth of a
Small AliSdeed.

one OF the largest congregations
that has attended during the present
revival. was present Wednesday
evening at the Westminster Presby
terrain church on Scott and Lindsey
SITS. The singing OF special hymns
by the church choir. composed Of 16
ladies' and eight men, under the
leadership Of Leslie Whitcomb Of the
Mccormick Theological seminary Of
Chicago. contributed much 10 the
enthusiastic spirit in endeavOring TO
procure the best results in the re-
vival campaign
In a well delivered sermon. the
Rev. DR.. a. Christy Brown. pastor
Of the congregation, pointed out the
results OF evils caused by continual
SHINING and appealed TO the congre-
cation as Christians 10 refrain from
committing sins, thus not TO offend
Jesus Christ.
He who pursues sin, pursues
death" continued Dr. Brown. We
sin by omission and by commission.
Sin is positive and negative. IL is a.
sin for a Christian not TO lead a con-
sistent life. Many Christians fear
nothing but sin, vet there are masses
in this world who are not afraid OF
sin. The wage of sin is death.
"Sin originates in the mind and
in the heart. Conscience resists sin
at all times. however. by strong
temptations. man finally yields and
the sin is committed. Sin is an at
tractive thing. II comes through
Lad books. indecent literature. dens
Of vice. II allures the man. espe-
cially the younger set. II attracts 10
such an extent that It is hard for
man 10 realize that sin is deceiving
him.
The rainbow is very attractive.
The devil makes the sin attractive
also. The devil makes the sin allur-
ing and it is placed before man In
the same manner as the bait is put
i'm the water for the fish. Sin always
deceives the man"
"Sin is as corTupting as smallpox.
A man who sins is sick The sin
pollutes the heart, the mind If we
yield 10 sin. it is easier for us to
commit the misdeed again. IL Is
easily to indulge in sin. Sins grad
ualiy lead TO the commission Of big
misdeeds.
What is the reason that the peni-
tentiaries. asylums and dens OF vice
are filed with men today? Sin is
the cause of the downfall of these
inmates. Had they resisted and list
ened to the voice of conscience, then
the appalling and disastrous results
could have been reverted. The pur-
suit OF evil and sin is the death of
the soul.
Man continues in a wicked plane
for sometime. He continues and
continues until the horrible ava
lanche meets him unprepared. soul
in sin. and-he dies in such a state"

LOSS Of COD IS
SERIOUS SORROW
Was Cause of 0avid'S Writinu
51St Psalm, Rev. Davis
Declares.

If there was hope for men like
David and Peter, there is hope for
all" said Rev. Henry L. Davis in a
sermon on The Backslider's Re
turn. at the First NJ. T. church last
night. Rev. Davis told how David
lost Gods presence and wrote the
Fifty-first psalm. from which he
took the text of his sermon. The
speaker said that il was this same
fact that caused Peter TO weep bit
terly
The Masonic quartet sang several
numbers and also aided the regular
choir with the music. Rev Davis
subject for tonight will be Bel
shazzer's Feast"
Nothing is clearer" said Rev
Davis. than that men once in favor
with God lose that favor. The books
of Isaiah. jeremiah and Hosea reit-
crate this fact. But two men, one
OF the old and one of the new tesla
ment, are the typical examples OF
These examples give emphasis TO
two great truths, that loss produces
sorrow. David's cry. Restore TO me
the JOY of Thy salvation is itself
the essence of sorrow. Any loss pro-
duces sorrow and sorrow is always
in proportion to the loss sustained
The loss of property, honor. loved

presence-this is sorrow infinite. II
was this loss that caused David 70
write the fifty-flrst psalm. This loss
sent Peter out to weep bitterly
But in the restoration of the soul
to its place in the Kingdom gives
emphasis TO two things. the love OF
God, and the Joy unspeakable TO the
human soul.
The very heart of the Bible is its
story Of the loss of God in his at

children TO their place in his favor
And the life OF Peter is a concrete
expressing of this truth of Gods
love. He preached the great SER

finally died a martyr to Christian

SAYS CHRISTIAN
FAITH TOO EASY
Pastor Says Religion Would
Have More Followers if Diff
fiCuItieS Were Greater.

THE greatest objection to the
Christian faith is that it is seeming
II too easy and simple" declared the
Rev. Melvin c. Hunt. at the Trinity
NJ. E. church last night. His text
was taken from the epistle of St.
Paul to the Galacians, 10th chapter
18th verse.
IF it imposed greater difficulties
and trials men would flock to it in
greater numbers" he said. Man
tries to make it hard when Christ
made il easy. The church sometimes
puts requirements of discipleship
that Jesus did not demand. The rea-
son for this is that man likes to
atone for his sins by something in
his own actions, but all that Christ
dequires is that We make a simple
confession of wrong
Rev. Hunt then discussed the
three crucifixions. that of Christ on
Calvary. that of the world, and that
OF the true Christian. "One-third of
the gospel is given over to the death
of Christ because his death is the
saving part of the ministry. There
is no way 10 heaven except by the
cross, a fact which many people dis
like. A church which has no cross
should not be called a church, be-
cause it leads not to salvation but to
the grave.
we should cruelty the world, be-
cause il is a condemned criminal and
the enemy of God. but instead of
that. many people place it on a
throne. We are afraid Of the world.
What the world will say has kept
more Christians from Christs testi-
mony than all the imps of hell The
Christian crucified is he who disre-
cards the world"

DISCIPLES INSPIRED
BY THE RISEN CHRIST
Without q Living Christ Christianity
Would be
Failure.

The two hilltops. Mount Calvary
and Mount Olivet, were used by the
Rev. d. A. Shierey in his sermon
Wednesday evening at Trinity Pres
byterian church, corner Colfax av.
and st. Peter St, TO show that Chris
tianity is based on the living Christ.
I'VE are all familiar with the first
hilltop, Mount Calvary, for there
the great love of Jesus was shown"
the evangelist said MANY of us
have had our burdens lightened,
when we discovered Calvary. But
did that vision of Christ crucified
change our lives? While il is true
that the first hilltop is where we
received our salvation, il is not the
cross that changes our life.
Perhaps few of us realize that il
is the second hilltop. Mount Olivet.
that makes the change in our life. -
the Rev. Shierey continued Let us
consider for a moment those persons
VINO are only conscious Of the dead
Christ. They are the church mem
bers who are Christians in name
only: those who believe, but who
are not strong in practice"
A dead Jesus is no more inspir-
ing than a dead Lincoln assert
ed the doctor. Without a living
Christ there is no use in Christianity.
Ii is from the risen Lord that we re-
ceive our power Lives in themselves
have little pOtentcy for good; II is
only through the inspiration of
Mount Olivet that we are able TO
work and perserve in the labor of
Christianity. Without a living Christ
Christianity is a failure"

JESUS IN AGONY OR IN
JOY ALWAYS PRAYED
Good Prayers Are Needed More
Than Good Preachers,
Says Minister.

Prayer. It's Power and Efficacy
formed the subject of Evangelist
Charles f. Watkins sermon at the
First Baptist church last night.
Prayer is the most practical thing
in the world" asserted the speaker,
and what we need today is not 50
much good preachers as good pray
ers. In agony or in JOY, Jesus al
ways prayed. Not my will but thine
be done was his prayer with Cal
vary, but a few hours away"
I'VE are children Of God by faith
in Jesus" declared the evangelist
and then explained how prayer was
based on this relationship TO God
illustrating by referring 20 the rela-
tionship Of father TO son, declaring
When YOU are in agony where viii
YOU go but 10 your father. Jesus
was a master at prayer and promis-
cd Whatsoever you ask in Ny name
shall be given 20 you In sunshine
or shadow. in JOY or sorrow the
promise Of the Son Of God always
holds good. Some people forget 70
pray because they let some sin get
between them and God"
Preceding the sermon Mrs. Dun
can sang "A solo and the choir and
congregation sang several hymns
The pastor announced that the First
Baptist church favored the Peoples
Music federation as IL did every
movement for the betterment OF the

LOVE OFTEN CAUSES
DOWNFALL OF MEN
We Have Thousand Modern Deli
Iahs. Says Rev. Daniel
a, Haley.

Real Christianity always effects
the life of the devOtee who acquires
a character that will live and grow
toward the ideal of his devotion"
So asserted Rev. Daniel A. Haley
of the Mizpah Evangelical church
in his sermon last evening. He drew
from the story of Sampson a les
son and warning and declared that
it was always up-to-date TO be a
real man of God.
The devil takes many forms. 8"
he continued. "and often the things
that you love most are the ones
struction. He comes 10 the saint as
an angel Of light, 10 the vain man
as a fiatterer and has spread over
the world the CarcaSses of many a
man of God. We have today a thou
sand modern Delilahs. and many men
are counting sin and lrifiIng with the
devil who by flattery are led away
from God"
The speaker declared that it has
always been the purpose OF sin TO
paralyze and check growth in the
believer. and that the man who tri-
fles with sin and is compromised.
the devil lets alone; but that the
firm believer in the word of God
is the one the devil is seeking. The
world today needs men of God. as
serted Rev. Haley. men who have
principles. who fear and love the
LORD With all their hearts. Such a
man was Sampson but he broke the
solemn promise he had made 10 God
for the love OF woman. We need
20 watch carefully that the things
we love may not be the cause OF our
downfall"
Song services begins each evening
I at 1880 o'clock and continues for 10
minutes. The sermon for this even
ing will be The Crooked Man Made

REVIVAL IS NOT
MADE IN A DAY
Minister Says Cornelius, the
Centurian, Was the
Originator.

A running story of practical re-
vival taken from the Book of Acts
chapter 10. was given by Evangelist
Rev. J. 4. Groves last evening at the
Conference Memorial church. COS
5. st. Joseph st.
In opening the discourse the
speaker showed that a revival was
not made in a day. The manifes-
tations of a revival" he declared
ARE long in the making. REVEALS
90 not come through Billy Sunday 5
efforts. His reawakenings are how
over. but the climax of many pre-
vious efforts"
Cornelius, the centurion, was the
originator of the revival. He was a
devout man, "A God fearing man, a
true father and always prayed TO
God. One day an angel came 10
Cornelius and told him TO send for
Peter, who would tell him what TO
do The centurion did not hesitate
but sent Immediately for the apostle.
He was on the housetops praying
when the messenger came. lie came
down from the housetOp and went
to Cornelius.
I'm the meantime Cornelius had
called his kinsmen and friends to-
gether. and was talking 10 them
when Peter arrived. This confidence
of friends and relatives" the speak
er forcibly showed. lis the thing
that we lack We are afraid 10 save
our own people and they are the
first ones we should look after.
Peter then spoke the words of
God and all present were baptized
and filed with the Holy Ghost. The
reason for this is that they heard
and believed without hesitation the
words OF God. Today the people
hear what they desire and hold a
deaf ear to all that they do not wish
to hear. Some have their religious
hobbies, and listen only 10 dis
courses on their favorites. This is
wrong if we desire TO be saved. we
must pray to God TO give us tn.
power and make us big enough TO
hear and believe all the truths"
The text for this evening will be
Prayer and What 1t Is" Special
music by chorus choir. Services
will begin at 1880 sharp.
