at the hirst Baptist church yesterday
miniing. My wy of iutroducliou he
commented on Uallatians 6:9 aud
Hebrew 1:2:3. The causes and remedy
of spiritual faintiug.
For great mental anxiety about our
selves. Reference was made to the
Israelites in the wilderness, our sick
soldiers Hi the hospitals at Manila,
Daniel in exile, etc. Kemembrauee of
our past lives. Jonah had disobeyed
(iod. He told of the trouble that must
come U, children who disobey' their
parents. The Apostle Paul could never
forgot his persecutions of the church.
The visitation of (tod's judgment? for
sin and Die legitimate harvest of evil
sowing often produce spiritual faint
ing. Among the remedies suggested were
the following: Remembrance of the
Lord, His power, His mercy, His pro
vidence. Prayer. We can never fall into any
situation wl. ere we may not pi ay. In
prison, in exile, the window towards
hciven always open. The communi

The pastor preached on "I'rayer" at
both Die morning and evening services.
In the morning his text was I John, 6:
M,15, unil at night, Matt. 7th chapter,
"tli verse.
iod Is the only object of prayer. It
is idolatry to call upon angels or de
parted spirits. We should confess to
whom we have sinned against.
"Against thee only have jve sinned' '
"Who can forgive sins but Uodonly?"
Jesus Christ is the only medium
through which we can approach the
Father. The Jews ignore this, and
hence are resting under (iod's dis
pleasure.
"1 am the way, the truth, and the
life," said Jesus. He is our high priest,
aud has made his own atoning sacri
fice. The Father has accepted and
endorsed it. The prerequisites to ac
ceptable prayers are sincerely, humil
ity, simplicity, and importunity. Ask
ing contrary to (iod's will is asking
contrary to our best interests. We
must not pray selfishly. The thorn
must remain in the flesh. (Jod 'a prom
ises are as sure as the foundation of his
throne. We should not only pray
with, hut for others. We should always
be In a devotional frame. "I'ray with
out ceasing." This is possible through
ejaculatory ..or mental prayer. Hecret
prayer is indiseiiNable. Family prayer
Is needful. Ju public or social prayer
we should rciiii inner that we ate pray
ing to (Jod and not merely to be heard
of men.

Reasons for the Unexampled Growth
of the Disi iples.
Orlgiual Christianity differs from
modern Christianity. The former is
Christianity as taught by Christ and
His apostles. In the thousand of years
of the 'dark ages" Christianity wbb
grossly corrupted; hence the need of the
prolcstaiit reformation. Rut that
reformation w as incomplete. The result
is modem Christianity, a compromise
between the original and that of the
dark utfe. , ... .
The work of the Disciples is founded
on y one great fundamental principle,
viz: a purpose to Bud iiv' the New Tes

purity and completeness, aud to teach
