I THK OlTMTHKTCHKIl HANDS |
This was the subject of the tier- j
jrnon last night at the First Baptist
church by Rev. O. L. Owens. It
was well received by the large con
gregation. The message dealt first
with the power of the hand as
ustrated In the Inventive genius of
man and the creative acts of God.
"All day long", meaning a continu
ous act. represents the time these
hands are extended to the sinners
and the fact that they are stretched
out represents the appealing mercy
of God to the lost. Those to whom
this act is directed are called "gain
saying people," or Impudent people.
The sermon made a splendid impres
sion as was shown by the interest
manifested later by both the christ
ian people and the unsaved. Two
young men also came forward at the
Invitation to confess Jesus Christ
as a personal Savior. There were
other requests for prayer.
"God Bless My Boy." sung my the
Trio, was much enjoyed.
There will be no afternoon servtcc
today, but services will be held this
evening at 7:30 o'clock as usual. Mr
Owens will preach on the subject:
'Homeward Bound.''
There will be three special servi
ces at the chursh tomorrow, itev.
L. B. Dutton will speak to the Sun
day school at the morning hour on
the subject: "Hens and Chickens."
The Trio will sing for the school
also.
At 11 a. m Rev. O. L- Owens will
preach on the subject: "The Trans

The Trio will alng, "Nearer My God.

that so thrilled the Southern Baptist
Convention In Baltimore last aprlng,
when It was sung by these brethren.
At 7:30 p. ra. Rev. K. A. Handy
