SALVATION 0 I \ {
UTTERMOST" TOPIC OF
SUNDAY NIGHT SERMON
BY DR.. R. |. DAVIDSON

Or. Il L. Dlvidson spoke to a crow
6cd house at the Broadway Baptist
church Sunday night on the subject,
Salvation to the uttermost," from
ehe text: Wherefore he is able also
TO save them to the uttermost who
come unto God Ny him. Heb. 1925.
He said in part:
Christ is the Saviour for all men.
He has the right to save for He
received his appointment from God
3 Himself. He has the power to save
because, He died for our sins, ac-
cording to the scriptures" He has
the Willingness to save for lie said,
Him that come,h unto Me l will in no
wise cast out" He saves to the ut
termost all who come unto God by
Him.
The Uttermost Ends of the Earth
There is no one spot or land on
earth more favored or acceptable 10
Christ than another. Wherever men
LIT up their hearts in prayer 10
Him, whether in church or out of
church, whether in Christian or pagan
lands He hears and accepts them.
There Is not q benighted heather in
she jungles Of darkest Africa who Is
hidden from the eye or excluded from
the love Of God.
The Uttermost Limits Of Time
Christianity will never grow old or
wear out. It is as potent today us it
was the day Christ died on Calvarys
Of
will never grow obsolete. 1t will never
be supplanted by another religion. n
is from Heaven and meets the needs
Of men of all times.
The Uttermost Periods of Life
Christ is q Saviour for the young
and he is a Saviour for the old. He
said, suffer little children, and forbid
khem not to come unto Me for OF such
is the ktgdom Of heaven. a child is
old enough TO be saved as soon as 1t
is old enough to sin. 1t would be a
mortal error in the economy of God
10 make a child responsible for its
sins before it was old enough to ac-
cept the Saviour. God puts no limit on
time. The little child may be saved,
the aged man or woman may be sived.
God is as willing ito save the aged
as he is The young but not many turn
10 God for salvation in the extremity
of life. The Bible records one DEATH
bed repentance that none may de-
spair, and only one thlt none may
presume.
The Uttcrm0st Limits OF Intelligence
God has made the way of salvation
so plain that a wayfaring man, though
he be fool, need not err therein. No
one Is saved by his learning and no one
Is barred from salvation BY his lack
OF learning. Any one who has intel
ligcnce enough to repose faith in
Christ has intelligence enough to be
saved
The Uttermost Depths OF Depravity
There are no hopeles cases in Gods
sight. His mercy extenos to he deep
est depths of mans depravity. He
saved the thief on the cross: he saved
Mathew the CRATER, He saved Mary
MlSdalene the adultercss. He saved
David the murderer. He says to all
erifng and SHINING ones. Though your
sins be as scarlet ghey shall be rs
whEe as snow. though they be red
like crimson, they shall be as wool.
The uttermost Measure of Perfection
Everything God does Is perfect.
When His salvliion is completed the
subject Of His salvation is perfect. It
doth not yet appear what we shall be.
but we know that when lie shall
appear We shall be like Him. Christ
Is able to save unto the u,termos, ends
OF the earth, the uttermost limits Of
Kline. the ut,ermost periods OF life,
the uttermost limits OF intelligence. the
Wiermost depths OF depravlty. the ut
termost measure Of perfection, all those
who come unto God by Him
