Morning Sermon on Road Builders.

Morning Sermon on Road Builders.
 Road Builders was the topic of Rev. MT. Purkiss' morning sermon. nave been trying to think myself back into the early days of our country and follow our forefathers as they made their way by slow, laborious progress from place to place, he said The old roads were hard to travel Men had to travel them, but it was precarous business, this job of liv- ing.
 It was a road to fear. Wild animals roamed the forests. It was road of superstition Evil spirits travelled abroad. Witches cast spells on people and crops
 A road has been built for the sons and daughters of men, for them to travel. Happy pilgrims travel it's pathway re- joicing No wild beast nor serpent haunts the traveller on it. No sorrow, no signing no tears nor fears. It is the way of God and the way to God. God is our father and He cares for us through all the changing scenes and conditions of life.
 But this. pathway was built at tremen- dous sacrifice. Who built 1t? Abraham built it Isaiah built it: Jeremiah built it Christ built 1t. Our task and our joy is to make known to the sons and daugh- ters of men the way of life. We come this Sabbath day. joyful witness to the living Son of God, rejoicing in the sacri- | ficia1 love of a dying and risen Redeem | CT to follow in his pathway The path is not mine and no one can make it mine unless I walk on it. Blessed Christ of | God I give myself up to travel on that Royal Highway.
 The second in the series of f1reside ser l mons will be delivered next Sunday even. | ing when the tcGic will be The Virile Husband
