"The Sin Against the Holy Spirit"
was the theme discussed on Sunday
evening. A crowded house greeted
the evangelist and much interest was
manifested in this important subject.
The speaker took for his text Mat.
12: 31, 32, "Every sin and blasphemy
shall be forgiven unto men; but the
blasphemy against the Spirit shall
not be forgiven. And whosoever sha'l
speak a word against the son of man
it shall be forgiven him; but whoso
ever shall speak a word against the
Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven
him, neither in this world nor in that
which is o come." He said in part:
"There has been much mystei-y and
false teaching surrounding this sub
ject. Perhaps there will be nothings
new to many of you in the thought I
have to present tonight, and no doubt
when I am through, the last word on
this theme will not have been uttered.
I want first of all to call your atten

The Work of the Three-fold Godhead
In the Plan of Salvation.
"In the Scriptures the God-Head it

Spirit Now in the plan of salvation
each of these personalities has his
own work to do. The work of the
Father is to originate the plun. As
soon as sin entered the world we find
God arranging a plan for man's re
demption. The first promise of a
Saviour appears in Genesis 3:15. In
the New Testament thero are many
passages Indicating that it is God's
plan that humanity should be saved
h rough Jesus Christ, his Son. See
Acts 2:23, 10:42. Tho particular woik
of the Son is to execute, or carry out
the plan that the Father has ar
ranged.. Many times Jesus makes

and prepares the plan for a house
then the contractor executes thi
plan. The Father originates, and tlv
Son erecutes the plan of salvation.
"But we are particularly interests
tonight in the work of the Holy irpiri
in this plan of salvation. In Luke
2:26 we read, 'And it had been re
vealed unto him by the Holy Spirit
that he should not see death, befor
he had seen he Lord's Christ.' Agai'
in Cor. 2:10, 'But unti God reveale
them through the Spirit.' And onc
more, fcpn. a:r, it nam now oecn re
ealed unto His holy apostles an
prophets in the Spirit.' Many mor
passages could be cited, ubt these wi'
be sufficient to show hat the wor1
of he Holy Spirit is to reveal. Thu
we see that the Father originate:
the Son erecutes, and the Holy Spir'
reveals the 'plan of salvation.
