Grant Colfax Tullar, OF New York

the morning service. At the begin
ming Of his sermon. Mr.. Fuller urged
All those present to get seated COM
fortably. Men go TO a baseball game
and sit for two hours and enjoy It,
but II is impossible for them TO come
to church" he remarked.
sEvery one Mr.. Tullar declared,
"who processes the name Of Jesus
Christ Is an ambassador. You might
not believe me. but the word of God
says so. An ambassador is one who
goes to a foreign country. We are
citizens. not OF the earth, but OF
Heaven. and have only been sent
here as ambassadors for Jesus
Christ"
The trouble with many ambassa-
dors." the speaker asserted, lis that
they do not stick TO the text They
are told what to say when they are
sent TO foreign countries, but, in
stead they try to ring in a spell OF
their own. They set their tongues
a-running and then go away and
leave them running. Just like sing
ers in some church choirs. They
sing a lot, but there is no connec-
ton between their tongues and their
brains"

At the evening sermon Or. Nc
Combe took as his topic, "The Un
nardonable sin. He declared tina
the sin WAS not what many peopl
Thought II was DR.. McCombe de
eiared "the objectionable sin wa
the persistent and continued rejee
tion Of the plea to let Christ com
into ones life. He said:
"Nc. the objectionable sin fs no
necessarily profanity. adultery. mur
der nor drunkenness. The unpar'
donable sin Is the continued, per-
sietcnt. deliberate rejection OF the
Gospel OF Christ and OF life. The
objectionable sin is the final and ul-
innate rejection OF Gods pardon

the gospel by the Holy Spirit.
-The unpardonable sin Is not an
act, but a state attained. The con-
science become scared until IL nc
longer performs Its functions, and
the Holy Spirit cannot apply the
tr,0h."
