Kew DR.. J. A. Burnett. pastor of the

powerful. telling sermon at the

He explained that the word re-

ence. for life ebbs and flows with
every one: sometimes IL f. the noun
tain top vision. but more frequently
IT is the Swallowed valley OF careless
ness. Indifference and neglect in
which the claims Of Cod and the
church have no stronghold upon life
and the ears are duHed 20 the needs
OF the world.
In considering the matter OF the
quickening OF life IL is pertinent 20
ask, What is a revival 20 and as the
very question pre-supposcs life. you
cannot revive that which has not
been. We sometimes confuse evan
gelistic efforts and REVEALS. The
latter must prccede the former. The
text is the Christians prayer for the
renewal OF what he once had in
fullest measure. but which he has
allowed TO slip away from him. de-
votion 20 God and the spirit OF help
fulness 20 the world
Very frequently the most neces-
sary thing for life is pruning. put
ting away things that may interfere
with growth or that may draw away
life from its true purpose.
Not Noisy Demonstration.
Revival therefore is not a noisy
demonstration. The quietest thing
in the world is life. II is not the
periodic setting in motion Of ma
chinery. Life moves without inter
ference If its conditions are fulfilled.
A revival IS the inbreathing Of God
in constant and effective power TAX
ing and using the powers OF our
being in uninterrupted service.
