FIVE BAPTIZED At
CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Two Force and Effective Ser
mons by Evangelist Ramsey
Sunday

The well-filled house last evening
at the revival meeting being held
by the First Christian church testi-
fled to the interest taken by mem
bers and friends of the chruch in
the meetings. At the close of the
service the ordinance of Christian
baptism was administrede to five
subjects.
Two forceful and Elective SER
mons were presented by Mr.. Ram
sey, the evangelist, Sunday. The
morning sermon was an impassion-
ed plea for the common salvation.
and the faith once for all delivered
to the saints. The reason for the
Christian church was given as Just
the call for pure New Testament
teaching, practice and living under
the direction Of the law of love as
it is in Christ and for the exalta-
tion of the Savior in all things per-
tanning to life az Me church.
The sermon last evening was a
Bible study of the church describ-
ed in the New Testament. The
church, the evangelist declared,
was founded by the Chrits. who is
the head Of the church. It's ordf-
nances are two, baptism and the
Lords supper, while its members
are baptized believers, i. e., be-
levers in the divinity of the Lord
Jesus Christ. He further designat-
ed the scriptural names of both the
organization and the members of
the church. His appeal was that
loyalty to Christ meant that he
would be exalted to his proper
place as the head of the church,
! His will and wish would become
the unquestioned law of the church
/ and His people would be just simply
followers of Jesus Christ.
The services continue from wight
| to night this week as warranted by
the interest taken. The subject for
tcnight will be "What is Truth?"
