IS T Speaking Sunday night from the fciple: "Weighing the Merita of Re demption," Fred M. weatherford. pastor-evangelist, preaching from the Nazaxene pulpit, took his text from Isaiah 1-18, "Come now and let us roaaon together, ealth the Lord; though your slna be a scarlet, they shall be a. white aa snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." In part, the minister said: "From the reading of the first twenty-one verses of this chapter, we observe that Ood 1a speaking to magistrates and seems to bo addressing them In the terms of conn procedure, In present ing the caae." Scarlet tins denote great guilt but the Great Sin Emancipator is plente oualy merciful. Hia appeal Is, 'Come now salth the Lord". The only aln that Ood cannot forgive la the aln of neplect." Five responded to make Christ their . Saviour.
