"There are two great powers—Gpd
Va Satan- -and these are contrary one

Satin yff man's enemy. God Is seeking
to iEfve you. The devil te aeeklag to
dsnnn you In everlasting won," said
Kvsngcllst E. C. Gaskill last evening
at the Pree Will Bsptlet church, as
he brought a message using the words
"And Satan came also" for.a subject
In conner-tlon with the words-of Peter,
“Be sober, be vlgllqgt; because your
adversary the devil, as a roaring lion,
walketh about, seeking whom he may
devour." 1. Pet. S:l.
“God has promised to give to us
what we need, but not what we might
want, tor some of ut would ride no
longer In a flivver but In Cadillacs and
other big cars, would not wear ten
cent rings, but rings with diamonds,
but the thing that nian needs Is God's
salvation to protect him from the de
ceiptlon and ruin of satan." said Mr.
Gjaaklll.
“There was a tint* when the eons of
God came together end Satan came

“Adam, Cain, the siaful werid dur
