GREATEST CASE THAT

Question of Christs Life and
Word on Trial, Says Rev.
C.. A. Icnkcns.

Rev. Carter Ashton Jenkens
preached in Calvary Baptist Church
last night on THE Greatest Case
In Court" lie spoke, in part, s
follows:
Our subject tonight is the great
est case that ever Went to court
and those on the witness stand. The
question of Christs life and word
are on trial. IL there ever was a
case that needed witnesses IL is this
one. The intdeI is trying To throw
IL out OF court. The ungodly IL seek
ing TO prove that Christ lied when
He said there was he'll and that
He perjured himself when He said.

timony. We have not seen Him, but
His words have the same power
now they had then.
When YOU accepted Christ as your
Savior you took the witness stand
And YOU are called upon To bear tcs-
timony till you die. You don't have

he knows. You are not to prove
that Christ was divine, nor that there
is God, nor that the Bible is in

definite act Of creation. We may
show these fundamental truths from
the Bible itself, but YOU are not to
argue with men. Tell the story Of
the cross, expound the Bible. tell
your own experience as to the power
OF Jesus to save. Don't feel called

as follows:
Men and women usually SGT their

our books. our fields OF labor and
the platform on which we stand. We
can aim high or low. We can seek
great things or small things. God
usually gives to men what they want.
N they want tho hest things, they
get them. nut tho trouble is. think.
with most of us. we are satisfied with
too little. God wants us to stand for
something and to stand out In come
thing.
There are those who count for
nothing. They seem to he living for
nothing. aiming at nothing and go
ing nowhere. They nigh. as well
give space to some one else They
are like the weeds that cucumber
the ground. what terrible com
mentary on life II was when Jesus
pictured the three men who received
talents. One received one talent an
other two and another five. The
tragedy OF all was that the man who
received one did nothing with IT,.
You remember Christ cursed the fig
tree because II amounted to nothing.
Tn" one thing that Christ hated was
weak and protitless life.
The people who do not amount to
anything do not belong to any ono
class or to any one station. They
may be men of brains and influence
and wealth. but still they may never
contribute anything as benefactors to
the race.
Roger BabSon has stressed six
points as the secret OF success The
negative side OF his propositions
would be the secret OF failure. There
