The thing. the great thing for

DR. Frlstoe earnestly stressed the
thought that this Holy Spirit is an
abiding spirit not a time visitant;
there is great difference in visiting
and living in city: In visiting and
living in home. The power comes
from God and Is abiding. and this
power was set forth By the minister
as being as llmItlcss as it's divine
source. The prerequisites for men
and women's possession of this
power were set forth and are. know
ing how TO pray with earnestness
and faith as Elijah prayed for the
rain and in the contest against the
prophets Of Baal, and consccrated

was concluded with the thought that
this power is TO be put in action

pastor. preached last night in CAL
vary BAPTIST Church on christ's
healing OF the blind man OF Beth
saida.
He said that this was the only pro-
gressivc miracle. Friends brought
the man to Christ. he said. They
knew that Christ had the hleesinE
needed. Every Christian ought to
seek TO bring sinners TO tho Savior.
The need. he said. is not to bring
men TO the Sunday school alone, or
TO the church. but to Christ.
Mr.. Jenkens said that Jesus takes
the blind man 10y hand He does not
restore sight Immediately, but leads
him on. Notice. he said. that Christ
Is the only one you can follow In
blindness The blind man told Chris,
men looked 10 him like trees on legs.
Many church members are like this.
They can't tell man from a tree

use OF simple means. God means for

trust Him for the rest Any faith
