and it's the farewell gaze upon the
fast receding drama. No star floats
in the lurid gloom to tell of hope or
cheer the heart. Stand up you
naughty high princes of erring sci
ence! Stand up, you sponsors of the
bastard theory of evolution! You
that deny Gods sovereign right of
creative power, you that said man
i came from the fortuitous concur
renee Of atoms produced in "a protop-
Flasm. Call on your old Goddess pro-
/ toplasm now! Come on blasphemers,
iscoffers, scathed by the lightning and
canopied by the thunder peals! Open
the burial places of your memory and
/ stand leaning upon your tombstonesi
Come on skeptics, it's your final
trial in Belief Will you parley with
the thunder peaIs and the trumpet
blasts, and the lightning flashes like
you did with sin and heaven? Will
you mock God then, the way you
mock at the preachers?
Come on prayerless buffoon, stand
up, tell the world what a fool you
were for living a prayerless life. Come
on, come on, princes and plenipoten-
tiaries of the intellect, you who mag
nified human reason above the divine.
/ Old Theories
Are wrong
Come on, you that took some old
German professors theories and put
Jesus Christ out of business and made
Him liar and a bastard, stand up!
No, sir. Worshippers of mammon,
ldolators of gain, you disdain the
commerce of heaven, you had no BIZ
BILE but your ledger and your day book,
you made bank vault out of your
heart. Gold was your god, the pretty
face OF that woman was your god.
i Look on the world now, old fel-
low. Come on, muster your deeds
and your stocks and your bonds Oh
.all Of these are lost while your soul
!! remains that you put no insurance
on God gave you the chance.
l am sometimes asked what
think will be the outcome of the com.
bination of capital to fight labor and
of the combination of labor to fight
capital l don't know. But I will
give you a tip. l know this much
that God has appointed a day in
which He will judge the world, and
there will be no class Judgment then
The millionaire will get it in the neck
the same as the hobo.
Whoever rejects Jesus Christ my
friends, they are unfortunate, il
doesn't make any difference who they
are! God is no respector of persons
| don't know when it will take place
God has appointed a day in which He
will Judge the world-oh, won't it be
a great meeting if all the unbeliev
ers are there? If my preaching gets
too hot for any of you guys, you car
;, get up and beat it, and if you don'i
like to, you don't need to come.
But there will be one meeting where
| everybody will be there whether they
, want to be or not. You don't have
to come here, but there is one meet
: ing where you will go and you CAM
go away if it gets too hot, either!
, You've got to stay there.
You will meet your sins. Some
times at the mouth of harbors, bars
or sand prevent ships from entering
/
, that prevents the siner from enter
ing the harbor of salvation.
{ The love of God through Jesus Chris
: that's the noon tide, and then yol
can sweep in on the love of God ovel
the sand bars of sin and bIunders anc
it pulls your life into Gods harbol
of peace. But you must come in wher
, she is at flood tide, and she is at the
? fIoodtide now.
J Establishes
Missions.
Years ago, my friends Crittenden-
Charles NJ Crittenden-lived in New
York His little girl died and he es
tablished missions after his little girl
, He was out in San FRANCISCO speaking
for that purpose, and one day he re
ceived a letter 1t read something like
this:
) Dear Mr.. Crittenden:
Il wish you'd think and think you
! way down until you came to the low
est level upon which you ever found ;
> human being living.
, 81 have been to hear you ever!
r night. l haven't always been thus.
There was time when l had home
and wife that 1 loved. One day there
came a woman into my home. W.
sinned and fled.
For a time l worked and supported
her, then drove her out to sell he
body. l took the money and spent i
for drink and for dope and gambling
"One night 1 was down in an under
ground groggery, breathing the vitiat
ed air, listening to the fiends of boil
: sexes that congregated in that cess
pool Of iniquity, when a man came il
and put note on the table. 1 read i
and it said: Hurry, come quick, Lizzie
is dying
put my hat on and staggered gu
9 of that stale beer-joint | went dow
D the street for blocks, then / turned int
|, an alley, and went up a rickety stair
4 way into building, and down a Ion;
e hallway into the room on the right
1 There on bundle of straw and rag
J, lay a woman, and at the sound of m.
/ voice and footsteps, she aroused heI
self, opened her eyes and sitting W
0 right said, God damn and curse you
! l am your victim; this is your work
E Look on the wreck! and she fell bacl
j into the arms of infamy.
| God Will
$ Forgive You.
E God pity you, he will meet his sill
a unless his sin is buried under grac
; through repentance and fear by faitl
o in Jesus Christ He will meet his sir
