APPEAL OF BIBLE T Speaking from the topic The Fundamental Missionary Concept In Gospel Aggression," Sunday morning, from the Church of the Nawirene pul pit. Fred M. Weatherford. pastor evangelist, said In part as follows: "The ushering In of the Holy Ghost Dispensation opened the beginning of the great missionary program, mark ing the first outstanding epic In world evangelism, Since the begin ning of ihlB dispensation, on the day of Pentecost. Ood'6 challenge to the church has remained the same. There Is no variableness In the Bible appeal to man. The one element, perhaps t that lends greatest strength to the Bible. as an Inspired book. Is from the fact that Its moral and spiritual teaching for correction, 1b as applicable today, as It was at the time It was given. This test, put to the publishers of text books reveals to us that human thought Is not enduring. Here we find that the best brains of human thought are fluctuating and vaslalat lng. Text books used a quarter of a century ago, In the sciences for In stances, are antedated today. "Sin, In the human heart, remains the same the world round and the remedy for Its removal Is through the ministry of the Holy Spirit, to Indi vidual personality. "The responsibility that Jesus laid upon his first disciples was the great; commission: 'Co Ye, therefore. Into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that belleveth and la baptized shall be saved but he that belleveth not shall be damned.' That commission has never en re voked. It ts incumbent upon all dis ciples of Christ today."
