EVANGELIST DELIVERS
THREE GREAT SERMONS
TO
E
FINAL WEEK OF REVIVAL CAM-
PAIGN OPENS TODAY WITH
3IUC1I INTEREST AROUSED.
Delivering three sermons and ad-
dressing approximately 6000 per-
sons Evangelist Luther Bridgers
worked especially hard Sunday into
completing a week of preparatory
services in the revival being conduct-
ed under the direction? of the First
Methodist church. The Sunday even-
ing service was attended by about
2500 people other church services
for the hour being suspended so that
all the congregations might worship
together. Despite a very sore throat
the evangelist preached with.all high
might and made a distinct impression
upon the large audiences which
greeted him.
The evangelist's theme for Sunday
evening when he delivered ttfe
strongest sermon of the series: thus
far. was "The Day of Judgment" and
the text was from Rev. (J;17. He
said in part:
''It is not pleasant to contemplate
the judgment of God. The average
man lives as if he never expected "to
die or to give an accounting for his
sins. Judgment is a necessity of
God's moral justice when every manj
shall be paid according to his des-
serts. Judgment will be only a reve-
lation of the things that already ex-
ist. Only facts are to be brought to
bear on our condition. The worst
part of a man's life is covered up
and the world sees only the best
part; but the eye of God sees all our
virtues and our vices and in the day
of God's wrath the truth wilj coine
out. Godjs merciful but he is just;
and sin is a challenge of God's
wrath. No man is predestined to
hell but God wants all men to be
saved. The coming of Christ removes
the excuse for sin; and while His
commandments are not grievous the
Christian life is not a mere ideal but
is a gift of the grace of God.
A Greai Day.
vThe day of judgment Will be a
great day greater than any day that
the mind of man can recall. It will
be a great day when prayers fail
when intercession ends when the fi-
nal accounting comes God calls it a
great day because:
1. "There will be great physic;'!
changes when the moon' and the
stars shall fall and all nature shall
be in confusion and all people in
terror.
2. "It will be God's day when op-
portunity shall be gone and God's
will shall rule over man's will. 3. It
will be a day of wrath while now
we have a day of mercy. It will be a
vindication of God's moral justice
and ever knee shall bow and every
tongue snail confess crying m vain
for an ecape from God's justice. 4.
It will be a great day because every-
body shall be there. There is no es
cape for any man. The rich and the
poor the prince and ' the. pauper.
millions and billions of people all
will be there. 3. It will be a day of
surprises. nether a man is. a
Christian or not will be seen then
and some things will be uncovered
them. 6. The secret things of men's
and women's lives will come to
judgment. God knows everything; He
sees everything. He has had his
hounds on your trail and in the day
of judgment your secret sins will be
made known. 7. It will be a great
day because it will be a day of sepa-
ration. The g(?od and the bad will be
divided this way and that. Will the
familv circle remain unbroken then?
Xever if you continue in the way you
are going now. S. Finally it will be a
day of eternal decision . a day of
doom the court of last resort from
wbSch there will be no appeal."
The discourse was concluded with
a solemn exhortation to the people to
go home and get down on thejr
knees and ask God's forgiveness in
order ehat they might ' J)e prepared1
should the day of judgment come at
once.
Big Afternoon Service.
Addressing about 1500 people in' the
afternoon Sunday Mr. Bridgers dis
cussed "The? Christian and Amuse
ments." It was a scorching denunci
ation of the modern dance and the
society card game the text being-
taken from Prov. 14:12.. The evange
list said among other things tint
the church people of Brownwootl
mild put out of the community any
evil that exists here but that so few.
people are taking a definite stand for
the Biblo and the doctrines it teach-
es that it seems somewhat strange
when a preacher does so. .
"There is an eternal difference be
tween right and wrong and the
question demands an answer in ev
ery man s Heart. instead of con
tenting ourselves with the question.
Is there any harm in it. we should
demand Is there any good in It?
There are three parties to every mo
ral obligation; ourselves our God
and-our fellow man. To' disregard a
pure conscience is a sin against our-
selves. To subject the spiritual to
the carnal is a sin against God. To
mislead .by our influence is a sin

REVIVAL NOTES.
Mr. Bridgers Sunday . night asked
the congregation to put $600 in the
collection plate so that further daily
collections might be avoided. About
one-fifth of this sum was counted af-
ter the offering had been taken.
Interest in Bible reading is increas-
ing. A total of 2308 chapters have
been reported 734 chapters being
reported Sunday night.
Pastor Smith made a spscial re-
quest that the congregation read the
second chapter of Second John and
make report tonight. Mr. Bridgers
also asked that the second chapter
of Hezekiah beread. It- is is prpbr
able that several will undertake to
-respond to these requests.
All the women prayer meetings
weer held this afternoon in a group
at the First Methodist church.
The downtown meeting this after-
noon was at the Looney Dry Goods
company's place of business and the
theme "All Wool and a Yard Widt."
Tomorrow afternoon ;in a hardware
store the subject will be BlanK
Cartridges" and "A C'pse Shavie"
will be the subject for Wednesday af
ternoons' service in a barber shop.
The nursery tent is still being
largely patronized. The condition of
the evangelist's throat making it
difficult for him to speak has em
phasized the necessity for. the prompt
removal of crying and fretful babies
and the nursery tent is convenient
and comfortable.
The preacher is working hard five
services being held Sunday and "about
four hours of speaking taxing the
evangelist's strength.
Sunday afternoon nhil the ev?.n-
vVt iisonssing amusements a
ninnih r i f golfers were uneasy be-
cause they had visions of what lie
might suy about Sunday golf play-
ing. The services Sunday began with a
prayer meeting at 7:30 o'cioes to
which some fifty or sixty people came
in spite of the early hour. It was a
season of consecration in which all
present pledged themselves to do all
in their power to promote the cause
of Christ.
At 9:45 the Sunday school hour at
the First Methodist church was used
by Rev. W. H. Boring the singer to
exhort every one present ;o line up
with the meeting to catch the step
and to work for the bettering of the
town the saving of the children' to
the church and the breaking down of
the strongholds of sin. . Nearly three
hundred attended this service.
At eleven o'ciock tne tent was
crowded to' hear Evangelist Badgers
ma soui stirring sermon anu marR
ed attention was paid to every. word
he uttered. The choir vns
it its
best ami there were very few-
' signs
of restlessness in the great cpngre
gation even though the service
