the people of New Bern.
The sermon this morning was on
"Our Enemies." -.'
Following is an outline of the ser-
1 mon deheverd this morning:
"The man who goes to a doctor or
a lawyer for advice expects to fallow
it.' God. reveals Has will only to those
who are willing-to. do it. 'If any man
wills to" do His will, he shall know of
the doctrine.. Now God's word is .duy
to our enemies, both in and out of the
church. ; - . .- ' '
' "In Matthew 18: 15-35 we are told
to' take a grievance first of all to the
offender tiimself. Tell him; not some-!
body else. ' Discussion can only inten
sify, antagonism. , The more you talk
about, your : grievance the more you
will become embittered and the hard
er it will be to adjust the matter. The
man who tlaks embitters his own
heart. So we are to go at once, and as
you go, pray God to give you grace
and the spirit love tc win your broth

the matter to the church. "

"In Matthew 1: 21, the Savior lays

your duty towards" him.' He says you
must' forgive him even as often as
seventy times seven, if need be. But
jyou say you can't do that. Then ydi
had better seek more grace than you
have; for Jesus says in that case
'Neither will your Heavenly Father
forgive you your trespasses Mark
11: 24-26. ' .,
"Well, some say," I can forgive him,
but I don't propose to have anything
more to do with him.' Then, according
to the principle of the mutuanity'of
forgiveness, when you get to the gates
of heaven, St. Peter will say to you,
