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."
INGE RALLY AT
