Elli llflllll PASIIIII
PRAISES SINGERS

Rev. S. P. Fairbanks and the pastors
Minted with him in the special ser-
vices now in progress in the East Ave-
nue M. E. Church. faced a large audio
once again last evening. In his intro-
ductory remarks the pastor said:
"This is the largest Tuesday night
meeting we have held; indeed it is the
largest of any week nigltt, if not the
hrgest. Sundays included. As I have
looked at this audience, as l have lib
tened to these songs of praise, (l have
always thought the singing at the
Northfield conferences was about the
grandest l have ever heard; but your
singing comes pretty close) as i think
of those who, during these services,
have found the Redeemer. i can hardly
realize that we have begun the sev-

 

enth week of these services ..1 feet
that we are beginning."
Rev. ‘1‘. Caskey, D. D., read the

Icripturo lesson and gave a delightful
ten-minute address. using as an illus-
tration, an old German legend of “The
Lord‘s Meadow and the Devil's Pul-
pit.‘

The pastor, Rev. S. P. Fairbanks. de-
livered the sermon, in the course of
which he said: .

The Bible is full of wonderful word
pictures. What beautiful place the
first home of our parents must have
been; a vast garden full of all that de-
lights the eye; of fragrant flowers, of
singing birds. or verdant meadows, of
shady groves, bordering forests of
stately trees. God looked upon it and
saw that it was very good. But in our
text we find that “Adam and his wife
hid themselves from the presence of
the Lord, among the trees of the gar
den." What a strange thing humanity
In; so full of inconsistencies, of scam
lug contradictions, of strange oppo
sites.

There is mttch of the old Adam in us
of this twentieth century. Adam was
hiding front God. How characteristic
of human nature. Finding ourselves
separated from God, tltrough sin, we
attempt to hide; we get under cover
in up and down through the land; the
hills and valleys are full of those that
once knew God and talked with him in
the cool of the day, but, they are In
hiding.

Some of the trees of this wonderful
garden survive even unto this day and
are considered by many splendid hid-
ing places.

Let us walk through the garden and
examine some of these trees. if you
look sharply you will discover behind
many of them. lurking in the shadows
there is a man hiding. He may per-
chance bear a striking resemblance to
some of my audience tonight. You
may even, dear friend, recognize your-
self peeping out from behind some
flimsy shelter which you had supposed
entirely hid you from the eye of God.

You are in a false position. God
knows where you are. You have heard
His voice. You have heard it during
the past six weeks. You have heard
It upon your bed at night. Some 0:
you haven‘t been sleeping very well.
Thank God for that. I have been pray-
lng that you would not. God is hunt-
ing you out, but he won‘t make you
come. You are in a false position.
Come out from behind that tree. Some
of you will not come, thouglt one
should rise from the dead. How can
you be saved if you heed not the voice
of God? God’s voice is calling you,

Some men are hiding behind their
pride. Some men are hiding behind
their reputation. It would hurt so to
acknowledge that you have been
wrong. People have supposed that
you were all right. You can’t afford
to admit that in the sight of God you
are an entirely different looking creat-
ure than you appear in the estimation
of your neighbor. But God knows that
you are not respectable; you haven't
got clothes enough to be decent.

And tin-n, some men are hiding be
hind other men. The Pharasee did
that.

and-So. and he is an official member
of the chute " Strange with what
filthy rags we attempt to cover our
naked souls. Some men are hidingbc-

lf all the baptised men and women
in Nanak should be converted, we
should be obliged immediately to build
more churches and enlarge our old
ones. If all the baptised so-called
Christiana should be touched by the
power of God, our book dealers would
have to send in a rush order for Bi-
bleo. Lots of Bibles are lost. If all
the baptised in Norwalk knew God,
your news dealers would put some 3
the “most popular novels of the day"
on the top shelf. If all of you cercmo
nial. dust covered, cold storage Chris
tiuns were filled with the Spirit, it
would make a difference with your
grocery bills. Some of you live like
the evil one himself and then with a
sanctimonious face come to the Com-
rnunion table of the Lord. some of you
think you can play with the devil if
you only worship the Lord a little bit.
