Johnson spoke upon the Unpardona ble Sin, which he gave out as the turning away from God ' when : His spirit calls to man, saying that "Tie refusal to accept the word when the spirit pleads with a sinner Is the unpardonable sin." His text was taken from the third chapter of Hebrews, the seventh and eighth verses: "Wherefore, as the Hoi Ghost salth, Today If ye 'will hear His voice, Harden not your heart as In the provocation. In the dar of temptation In the wilderness." He made It a point that It Is the very greatest mistake cf life to put off the acceptance of the spirit when once calls fo.- tno mav nevar Vnn when the spirit shall cease to strive with his soul ,and It may be foreve too late.

All this was to show by a test how few there are, if they delay, ever feel the call of the spirit In later years. Then for the benefit of those who sometimes say they do not believe In special meetings, he asked all Christ ians to stand again, and requested those who did not come to Christ at a special meeting to be seated. Very. few sat down, establishing by a. far ther test that If It were not for the peoa meetings, .very! )few would find the way to salvation. ' He said that God has special har vest times which are the revival meet lngs, the same as man has regular harvest seasons In whlr-h tn w QWVUVl his crops and . that the specoal call of .the spirit attended such meetings, so If a man turn away and heed not , he call,' the spirit may desert" him so; that he will never bao. the call Again,. and will be lost. ; . He cited the caSe of a young man who was about to go forward at a special meeting and give his heart to' Cod, when friend came and told "Im to wait, until he got home, and tiicn have his wife and "iihi.viu . . "vw vutlU go to the altar with him; so "they) ungai au accept Christ together. 1 The young man delayed on this advice, but he' never had another 'mii. of the spirit and paid the penalty for v.wa uiimraonaDie sin of procrasti nation, by spending eternity in hell. He Quoted from'' tha ni.i. . . - - v. , Cod gave them' up," which, with , that i tavorite quotation to the effect that t r..i. i, . ... . o,uni or uoa does not alwavs strive with man, seems to point con clusively to the fact that there enn oome.a time when it Is too late. .
