Seventh Day Adventist Church Notice

There is growing interest in study
of the Bible at the Sunday evening
services of the Seventh Day Adven-
fist church, 800 Second St. N. w.
It is intensely interesting and con-,
vincing TO discover that the strictly
scriptural presentation of every doc
trine, type, prophecy, law or institu-
ton of the Bible contributes not to
their own exaltation Of the self-exal-
tation of man, but to the exaltation of
the name and diety of Christ. The
subject for the next discourse Sunday,
1880 P. M. is no exception to this
rule. This subject, "The Punish
ment of Sin, or the He'll of the Bible
reveals as no other subject, the love
and sympathy of Gods character"
Bring your Bible and skeptical
friend.
