It has been well said that there are . onlv a few peaks in the mountain , range that attack the eye and rivet the attention. Even the proud Alps I can boast of but three notable summits, Mt. Blanc. Mt. Rose and the • Matterhorn. Japan has but one notable height—the Fujiyama. The world famous pinnacles can be enu merated in a single breath-all else is tame. What the towering summit is to tne mountain range the great crisis is to the human life. Men attract our at tention only when in some respect they tower above their fellows. Onlv it rare intervals do we find such men. and when we do find them, they are towering at only one or two points. At ail others they are at a dead level. Demosthenes was only an orator. Socrates simply a phillosopher. Archimedes a mathenatician. But Demosthenes is mostly remembered for his oration on the crown. Socrates for his sublime death and Archimedes or his discovery of the law of specific gravity. Only one crisis, but a single towering summit. First Great Crisis Our text refers to the first great crista in the life of Paul. Though we atch a glimpse of him at the stoning of Stephen, he here first merges into full view. We see his beaded brow, we hear his wailing cry. and witness lis tremendous agony. It was in the irofoundest sense a conversion. It was more than an intellectual opera tion. It was a crucification and resurrection combined. Yes, it was an iscensicn. for Paul arose to walk in newness of life, in a new world, with sew enivironments and associations It was an instantaneous conversion —though having its antecedents that we are likely to overlook. The work began with the stoning of Stephen. The angelic countenance of that Irst martyr, his glorious prayer, his unearthly gentleness and compassion his triumphant testimony, made a pre ound impression upon the observing mind and susceptible heart of the spsotle. "Lay not this to their charge.” cries Stephen and Paul feels how’ immeas urably superior he is to all his perse cutors. "Lord Jesus receive my spirit," am’ his rapt soul enters the Holy of Hol es. Though covered with blood mangled, Stephen's body had all tht trace of a kipgs son and his face all the sweetness and beauty of an angel. Paul was smitten to the heart. His own conscience began to feel the oricking of the Holy Ghost and tc nutter condemnation. Just As Likely You might as well expect this tab'rnae’e to fly, you might as well expect a mummy to speak, you might as well expect this pulpit over which I am talking to preach to you, you night as well expect the devil to love holy water, you might as well expect tn Irishman to hate whisky, yon might as well expect a Scotchman to ee a joke, you might as well expect to pull a cat by the tail backwards over the carpet as to expect a revival n Decatur, unless It begins in the house of god.

Now it , takes 3.000 sermons to convert one f little dried up nubbin of a chrtatlapWho is to blame? Wherein docs the fault He? It is not with the glor- , 1()US gospel. We have the same blesst ed gospel to preach, and it is still 4 tnighty to save. We are to d that conditions have changed and that m ' methods used and the stvyle of serI mons preached in those early days of revival power would not win today. 1 have higher critic friend near Chicago who claims to be a specialist up- > on modern evangelism and at con- , ventions and district rallies he is det livering his addresses upon the new i evangelism needed today. And y“- ■ I have known him to be pastor of one ? church for four years without a single convert ion under his new evangel- • ism. While it has been my privilege to ? see 11,000 souls born into the kingdom during the past few months through the old fashioned preaching > of this old time gospel with Holy Ghost power. i Preach your sermons if you choose upon higher criticism, sociology, astronomy and the present topics of the > day, but I am not ashamed of this old gospel, for it is still the yower of God unto salvation. Not God'* Fault J The fault is not with God. He 's . still omnipotent in His power. i It is not with Jesus Christ, for He ■ is still the savior of men and his ; blood is still able to cleanse from the • least and last remains of sin. i It is not with the Holy Spirit. This is His dispensation. He is still abroad in the world to convict men of sin and righteousness and judgment > as in the days of yore. Wherein then does the difficulty lie? > Who is to blame? You are to blame, , I am to blame. i Isaiah said to Israel; "The Lord's • hand is not shortened that He cannot save, neither is His ear heavy that He cannot hear, but your iniquities have separated you from your God, and i your sins have hid His face from you i that He will not hear.” i David says: “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear jne.” Many Christians are praying for power and all the time remaining powerless, and wondering what the matter is. when God simply has his ears closed against their cries because of their unclean hearts and lives. Sin is harbored there. My friends, this is the secret of the failure of our efforts to lead souls to Christ. Are unwilling to listen to the voice of God and of the Holy Spirit? If so you need not expect to get the ear of God. and without the ear of God you are powerless. The spirit is very sensitive. He will not work in an unclean heart. All of us want power. I suppose there is not a church or an individual in the world that would not like more power. The trouble is, we are not willing to pay the price. There is <n- ■ ward sin, sin harbored in the heart which you are not willing to confess and forsake. Some time ago the lights all went out in Boston. There was great curiousity to know the cause. Faithful linemen began to investigate and to their astonishment found that the main line going out from the power house had rubbed against a nail and divided the current. And so with you here Sin in one form or another has come in between you and God and divide! the current of spiritual power. In New York some time ago, a man was mysteriously paralysed It came on him so gradually that he scarcely realized when it began. Upon inves-

Not long ago some men on a harp in Chesapeake bay were examini,,the cable. They had an instrum- ,'t which they let down to the bottom It was a glass globe, and in it were electric wires that were attached to the battery on the barge. When it was in place the current was turned on. The bottom of bay was lighted up for some distance and they were enabled to see any otr st ructions. 1 knew a stingy old skin-flint in ag Illinois town. He was worth over SIOO,OOO and had neither chick nor child to leave it to. He was a member of the M. E. church and made the loudest profession of sanctification And yet that old son of perdition hal a poor widow woman with a larg? family to do their washing for 50c a week. One day she did not finish the washing by noon. He invited her to remain for dinner. When he came to pay that poor, hard-working woman for her work, he charged her up 25c for her dinner. I tell you, if there is one spot hotter in hell than another you will find that old fellow cracking brimstone there. 1 know nothing about your private life or your mode of living. You are all strangers to me and 1 haven't become acquainted with any good gossiping sister here yet, but if there is any friction existing between professing Christians on this ground or htween members of churches interested in this revival campaign and ya ere not willing to make wrong* rsif and effect a reconcilliation. wetega as well shut up shop for heami's blessing will not fall. I one day spoke to a business Din about taking a stand for Go<l. Tb replied: “I am not ready yet to take such a long step down.” He said; “Some of the worst dead beats in this town are members in your church and know how to say amen in prayer meetings. It is bad enough he sail, to meet them in a business way winout having to associate with them in the church.” The biterest wail we have heard this year has come from business mon outside of the church on account of debts of church members that wet" out-lawed. If I were a gambler. I would not be afraid to wager that I could go up to your business men on Main street and find on their hooks debts contracted by church members that they would sell for 10c on the dollar. I tell you, God Is a mighty good bookkeeper. You will clean up your slate or you wil give an account at the bar of God. — FOR RENT—Furished rooms, heat and bath.
