The Kerr Street Baptist Revival.
A large mid interested congregation
greeted the singers aigj preacher
again Wednesday night aim tlicvNpirit
was felt in the very atmosphere. There
have been seventeen (17) added to the
church so far, eight by letter and nine
by baptism. God is indeed blessing us.
The preacher spoke Wednesday
night from II Samuel 0:24, -and let it
he when thou hearesit the sound of
the going- in the top of the mulberry
trees, that then thou sbalt bestir thy
self, for then shhll the Lord go out be
fore thee to smite thjv host of the
Philistines.’* Ho sajd in part:
* First, wlien the people of God go
in obedience, that God will bless their
efforts and give them a glorious vic
tory. It gave Moses and the children
of Is real assurance. It gave Joshua
assurance. It gave the apostles as
surance. ♦
Second, then we learn that when
God’s power is present 'that we as 11L
children should put forth our best ef
forts with the assurance of victory.
Third, we learn further that when
God is in our midst that there is the
time for sinners to seek the Lord in
their salvation. Isaiah said to_‘seek
the Lord while He may be found, and
call upon Him while He is near.”
Herod waited too long. Felix waited;
too long. Many thousands have wait
ed until God lmd left them.
Services will continue at b p, ui.
and 7 :T0 p. m. until Sunday, night.
