Tenn.. told I a large audience Sunday at the opening of the fourth annual Cand ler Camp Meeting at the Lake Jun ali.ska Methodist Assembly. "It is easy to prove that Christ actually lived a little more than ? 19(10 years ago. but do you really believe in him as your own saviour and who alone can save the world from the self-destruction of sin?" Dr. Bullock asked. Some of the reasons cited by Dr. Bullock in his sermon. "Why 1 Be lieve in Jesus Christ." were as fol lows: "Because when 1 read the record ! of what he was like, what he did, j what lie taught . . . my mind says, ! "God is like that.' "When I read the record of his | forgiving love and his suffering death on the cross, all that is within me cries out: "Surely in Christ God is revealing himself to me.' "I believe in Christ because in the more than 1900 years since he lived, no one has taught or demon strated a conception of God which can compare with his. and surely no one else has clothed such a great conception of God with the quivering, living flesh of reality as Jesus has done. "I believe in Christ because he reveals what man may become even though he transcends and outlives ; the creeds, customes and institu tions of his followers. But in the , last analysis, the real reason 1 be lieve in Christ is that as 1 have | given myself to him. I have ex-1 porienced his sure presence and leading spirit." i Dr. Bullock, who is editor of J Methodist churchschool publica- ? I tions, spoke at both the lia.m. and 8 p.m. services Sunday. On Mon- i day he will begin a daily series of | J Bible lectures at 10 a.m. in Me-! ; inorial Chapel as a feature of the ; !"old time" camp meeting. A leading British clergyman. Dr.' I W E.
