tHE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
WITH THE CITY
At Forest Hill Methodist Church.
The services continues to hold in
terest at Forest Hill Methodist
Church.
Rev. Roy T, Houts preached anoth
er good sermon to a large crowd on
Thursday night. The subject used:
‘‘Jesus Seeking to Save.” He ‘point
.ed out that Jesus in all His interest
in humanity does not forCe> any man
to become a Christian.
Religion is something that must
be the outgrowth of man's faith and
works. Some few took their stand
for Jesus.
The services at this church have
been very helpful to the people who
have attended.
At 7:30 tonight the usual preach
ing service. There will be no day
services Saturday, but there will be
preaching Saturday night at 7:30.
PASTOR.
Great Service at the First Baptist
Church.
The revival services at the First
Baptist Church are gaining nightly,
both in the size of the congregations
and in spiritual momentum. The ser
vice last night, which was largely at
tended, was characterized by a spirit
of profound solemnity, as the pastor
delivered the most searching message
yet preached in this scries of meet
ings. The sermon subject was: ‘‘Con
cord's Five Biggest Fools,” outlined
by Mr. True'ulood as follows:
The atheistic fool—" The fool hath
said in his heart, there is no God” —
Psalms 14:1. ‘‘ln his heart,” he
said it; that is he rebelled against
the idea of a supreme being, a God.
and then repudiated the fact of a
God; hence his stupendous folly, for
only a consummate fool would deny
a fact simply because he did not care
to believe it. Grim and. ghastly, in
deed, is the program of the atheistic
fool. ‘‘No God,” he declares. Tin
order of creation is merely fortuitous,
law and order and design in the uni
verse just happehed, many is only
an animat, prayer is silly nonsense,
salvation is only a fantastic dream,
the church has only a human founda
tion, the Bible is a pack of myths and
fables, Christian experience is rank
superstition, the age-long and uni
versal longing of man for a world
beyond is a lie, there is no silver lin
ing ou death’s dark cloud, for the
grave ends all—man was bom, lived
and died that lie might reach eter
nal destiny, the tomb. But such
hope-destroying preachments are but
the poisonous vaporiugs of a fool,
says God's word.
(The. iconoclastic fool—" Fools make
a mock of sin,” Proverbs 14:9. “A

fool despiseth his father’s instruc
tion,” Proverb 15 -J6. This fool tries
to laugh sin oat of existence; he
would get rid of sin, its tragic fact
and results, merely by the whitewash
of denial.
The egotistical fool—“Tbe way of
a fool is right in his own eyes,”
Proverbs 12 :15. His motto is "Per
sonal Libetry," and his idea of per
sonal liberty is the same as that of
a hungry wolf in a sheepfold. He
asks nothing, accepts no advice, makes
no mistakes—and just here is where
the fool part comes in. He ean learn
nothing from experience, or from his“
best friends. Tell him "fire burns,”
and he laughs in your face and de
liberately sticks his hand in the fire
to prove to you that it does not burn.
There ii but one thing in all the
universe, and that is his highly ex
alted ego ! Oh, what a fool!
The materialistic fool—“ But God
said unto him, thou fool, this night
they soul shall be required of thee,”
Luke 12:2Q. This is the fool that
used the personal pronoun eleven
times (Luke 12:17-19) and didn’t
refer to God a single time, while tak
ing stock of his earthly possessions,
and contemplating larger material
gains for the future. He was a
fool, not because he was rich, but be
cause he mad a God out of his
riches.
The evavngelistic fool, or paradox
ically speaking, the wise fool—2 Cor
inthians 12:10-11. ’-‘I take pleasure
in infirmities, in reproaches, in ne
cessities, in persecutions, in distresses
—I am become a fool in glorying.”
“Wo are fools for Christ’s sake,” 1
Cornitkians 4:10.
Practically the whole congregation
came forward for reconsecration. It
was a wonderful response to the pas
tor's invitation to be “Wise Fools,”
for Christ's sake.
Mr. Betts was at his best in the
song service, which is indeed thrilling.
The people look forward eagerly to his
solos. Service tonight at 7 :30.
