vica aa the only ana which Wade to
tha highest pinnacle of aoccese to tha
Individual. His text eras, “For who
soever will save his life shall lose it:
and whosoever will lose bis Ufa far
my sake shall And It." — Matthew
lift
"The right of service," declared
the preached," is teaght by Divine
example." The word, service, rings
forth frwns the pages af the Bible
from Cancels to Revsiebons. TVs
appeal of Jeans to man was to urea.
Jesas, himself, lived a divine example
of service. Ho steeped to the lowest
degree of sarvtoo. it is both Divine
and manly to oervo.
"Service la also illastreted in the
human history," continued the
preacher. The only right to Nfo is that
which comes throng service. There is
no right except through service, that
of lightening the burdens ef others.
The truest service ana can render it
to reach oot and take tease Individ
ual to Christ.
