WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT HIM.
4
Evangelist
» David Eugene Olson
was born of Scandinavian parents
in Montgomery County,
Iowa,
November 6. 1876. He moved to
the state of Washington in 1890.
When only 17 years old he was con­
verted to Christ and New Teatament
Christianity.
At once he began preaching
among hia own people and con­
tinued for. five years with marked
success.
The Lutheran Church gave to
Brother Olson his early religious
training. His father was a faithful
and successful Lutheran preacher.
He was the first of his family to
step out from all humanism and
identify himself with tlie “Great
Restoration Movement.”
While he has proved himself a
man of unusual worth and power
among the Scandinavians, he is
equally effective among English-
speaking people.
The Eugene Bible University con­
ferred upon Brother Olson the
degrees A. B., B. D.. and B. O., for
required work done in this school
and the State University of Oregon.
Especially gifted by nature for
Evangelistic work, he has given care­
ful attention to methods and details;
nothing having been neglected that
could contribute to hip strength
an 1 success.
Though constantly in the Univers­
ity since beginning his ministry
among the English »¡waking peo­
ple, his success has been pheno­
menal. During his school life in
Eugene, Oregon, he preached 1135
sermons, received 1312 memliers
into the church anil conducted IS
revivals, averaging 50 additions to
the meeting.
He conducted three revivals in
one place in a single year resulting
in 206 conversions, the last of the
three being the most successful.
Recently he held a meeting in
Puyallup, Washington, a place of
8000 population, 1 which resulted
in 200 additions in less than six
weeks.
He is a successful pastor, power­
ful in organisation, sound in doc-
trine, strong in faith, fervent in
prayer, cheery and hojieful in dis­
position.
He is a man of indefatigable
energy in pulpit and ¡reraonal work.
In all, highly practical and all­
round man who reaches men, mak­
ing him just the evangelist you
want for a meeting.
I have been associated with him
for years as a fellow student, a
co-worker in the ministry and in
meetings aa conductor of music.

I heartily commend him to all as
an intensely earnest man who will
win.

he preaches and demonstrates and
proves everything as he goes
along.”—Puyallup Republican.

most powerful
and
influential
speakers which Puyallup has known
for years.”—Puyallup Tribune.
“ D, E. Olson is an earnest, able
speaker, full of mother wit, and
thoroughly conversant with the
Scriptures which he seems to have
committed to memory. He holds
his audience from start to finish,
giving them no time to become
restless under his address. His
methods are very commendable.
He does not attack other churches
and thus create prejudices, but
commends them for all their good
work.” —St. John's Review.

Compare Christian Preacher
to Rapid Fire Gun and
Automobile
with
Extra Tires.
“Have you heard David E. Olson,
the evangelist?” a prominent law­
yer was asked.
“I have,” he answered, “and in
some particulars he excels any man
I ever listened to. James Hamilton
Lewis, former Congressman from
Seattle, was accredited with being
one of the most rapid speakers who
ever appeared in congress, but Ol­
son will say three words to one of
I-ewis ; in fact, Lewis is like a gentle
shower compared to a cloudburst.
I know of nothing to compare him
with when it comes to rapid talking
and Scripture quotations except to
say that he appears to be a six-
cylinder, high-power armored go»-
pel motor car, mount«! with four of
the latest improved rapid fire guns
with an inexhaustible store of aiiiiuu-
nition, with extra tires strapped on
behind. When he charges at the
enemy be strikes a pace i.f more
than a mile a minute and rakes
everything foie and uft on both
sides witli the fastest shooting ever
known in a gospyl campaign work,
and as he sweeps by, you instinct­
ively bide, and when beyond you
he halts for one moment, you
emerge from your hiding place be-
lievirig he has exhausted his ammu­
nition. In a flush be about faces
and trains ail lour guns on you,
every one shisiting faster thanever,
and before lie gets near you you
either run for very life, surrender
or cry for the ris ks and mountains
to fall on you to hide you from the
wrath to come.
“The book of Revelation tells of a
time coming when the cavalry of
hell two hundred milliou strong—
the horses having heads like lions,
and out of their mouths issue fire
and smoke und brimstone, by
which the third part of men are to
lie killed, will raid this world.
“But that army certainly will
not
attempt an
invasion
of
Hoquiam while Olson is here.
Jesus routed the devil with three
scriptural
quotations, and Mr.
< »son seems to tie so full of the
Bible that quotations leap from Ilia
tongue. Hash from Ilia eyes and
seem to spring Irom the tips of his
fingers and from every hair of his
head, ami should that army ap|>e ir
and encounter a man so thoroughly
equipped with Bible quotations, as
Mr. Olson is, the whole bunch
would break and run ns soon as ha
would open tire on them, and never
»top to liaxard a battle with a num
like Olson.
“Mr. Olson is a young man, but
he is certainly a wonderful man.
Everybody should hear him."
Are You in Christ
or Not ? •
Out of Christ, means lost.
In
Christ means aa veil. To tie in Christ
we must first come “into” Christ.
The Inspired word of God. the only
infallible guide, telle liow to couie
“into Christ,”
The steps tlint lead in Christ are:
1. Believe on the Lord Jesus
Christ John 29:30, 31 ; John 3:18;
lleb. 11:3.
2, Repent, Hint is turn away from
sin—Luke 24:47; Lk. 13:% H ; Acta
17:30.
3. Confess Christ before u>cn—
Matt' 10:32; 1 Tim. 5.12, 13; Rom.
10:9, 10.
4. Be baptised into the name of
the Pother, Son and Holy Spirit
Matt. 28:18-30; Acta 2:38, 3»; Rom.
fl: 3-3.
If you have taken these stops sin­
cerely you are in Christ.
Now to
abide in Christ we must live daily in
obedience to his word. See II Pet.
1:2-11; I Theos, 5:141-22; I John 4:11-
21 ; Rom 8:35-3».

Seven Great
Scientific
Statements.
1. There can la
* no design with­
out an intelligent Designer,
2. No plan without an intelligent
Planner.
3. No law without an intelligent
laiw-giver,
4. No thought without u Thinker.
5. No purpose without some intel­
ligent person who has Ilins l‘ur-
posed.
fl. No order out of confusion
without some intelligent |teraon thus
ordering.
7. No planned, designed, purpos­
ed, ordered, well though! out per
l>etiial motion without intelligence
behind it. The universe allows such
motion, lieaign, law, plan, purpose,
thought, order and law. Manis not
the designer, planner, thinker, law­
giver, and governor.
Therefore
some greater intelligence is back of
it all “The (¡od of the Bible,” is
an intelligent answer.
