Quotes Moody.
he quoted the words OF Moody,
who. when asked By "a woman " lt
was consistent TO go 20 the theaters
and profess christianity declared,
would go % shows If 1 wanted 90
but I never want 10 go. What do I
care for garlic and onions when 1
can feed on heavenly mamma"
The need of the world today, he
said, Is preachers who are not afraid
20 tell people the truth about them
ship OK the highly dignided classes
as much as they do the chance TO
save a soul By forcing IL TO a recOg-
milton OF its uncleanness.
Paul Told Truth.
when Paul was brought 10
preach 10 Felix and Drusilla ne told
them the truth about themselves.
Notwithstanding the fact that they
were high in the aristOcracy and
might have saved him from death.
for he was then I'm jail You've got
folks in this town who don't like
straight preaching but when they go
20 die they viii want somebody who
VIII tell them the truth about God
and hell. The idea some people
have OF a nice preacher is one who
viii give them soothing syrup and
make them feel good and proud Of
themselves but that isn't the kind
Of preacher who viii take you TO
heaven. A doctor could give you
morphine for a cancer and make you
sleep and forget IL for a while but
the cancer still eats. The preacher
who wins is the one who cuts out
the cancer Of sin with a knife OF
truth.
All Are Subject.
IT don't talk hell TO a drunkard
or a prostitute. I tell them Of the
love Of the Cod who can save; but
what you high headed, proud sin
ners needs is a preacher who can
thunder hell FIRE at you until you
realize that you are as apt 10 go To
hell as the sinner Of the street.

town who think they are too re-
spectacle 20 be damned but without
God they are going as straight 70 hell

You've got women in this town
who are too dignifed 20 come here.
oh. mo- They like a nice dignided
preacher who viii tell them what

Crnor and senator but / said gam
bling and prostitution and drunk
ness and before two weeks the seua-
tor was suddenly called TO Wash
lngton and the governor found bus
mess out OF town. Il rs easy 20 talk
10 a crowd but telling one or two

Is hard.
Usually when a preacher tells a
crowd the truth about itself every

IS above such things that she thinks
he is hitting at someone else.
