Nine Baptized At
Revival Services
Christian Church

There is no crown without the
cross and there is no resurrection
without DEATH Evangelist Hamilton
declared last night In his revival
sermon delivered In the First Chris
tian church. The subject OF the
sermon was "The Atonement."
Inspirational song services and a
solo by Mr.. Harris, song leader, pre-
ceded the sermon. Nine were bap-
tized in the short baptismal services
before the opening Of the regular
services. .4
"Jesus Christ shed his blood once
and for all for the sins of the whole
world the evangelist said. The
great achievement in the world,
both economically and spiritually,
have been brought about through
the principle Of the atonement and
usually through the shedding Of
blood. There are three different
theories or conceptions concerning
the atonement-the criminal, gov
ernmental and commercial. The
criminal conception is that man has
committed a crime against his soul
and against his God, and that Christ
on the cross meets the penalty OF
the crime. The governmental con
ception shows that there Is nor in
volved in the cross than the recon-
Citation of man to God, that Christ
on the cross maintains the majesty
of Gods justice. The commercial
conception is that mar has become
hopelessly in debt to God and that
Jesus Christ paid the. debt and set
us free. a.it
"All Of these conceptions are up
held in the word of God. They are
all true. Christ on the cross poured
out his life that we might live. Than
this there Is. no greater love. This
is the philosophy and heart of the
tragedy of Calvary's hill.

thougli the score was 10 to % in
favor of Spencer, the victory was

consideration the following facts:
Our girls are unaccustomed to an

wrong; played against a much
heavy and more experienced
players; and were somewhat
tired after the sixty mile drive.
These are not excuses for the de.
feat, but real reasons for it.
