HUNDREDS TURNED AWAY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) It is absolutely certain that there is a day of judgment coming. God has apiKiinted a day in which He will judge the world. Belore that pudgment bar we must all stand. You may turn a deaf ear and refuse to hear the gospel call now; but you will be compelled to listen to the call to judgment. You will be forced to obey that call. You may leave this service and go out into the world again and go on living in sin and laugh at the thought of judgement, but you cannot laugh it away. All Must Appear. We must all appear before the judgement seat of Christ. Men shall be judged by man. He that was once judged by men shall judge men. Jesuknews what men should he. He lived the life of a perfect man. He met the same temptations that we are called to face. He fought the same battles that we are called to fight. He has been under the law In deep humility who is ordained to ad minister the law in high authority. He has stood in man's place; H> therefore is the moAt fit judge that could be selected. You will have a fair trial, man. He that will judge you will not take sides against you. This is not true in earthly courts. In Chicago many r-.i the worst criminals escape punishment because they have a political pull, while innocent victims are often plun Jered and robbed and punished far lack of justice. Fair Trial. But with the judge .eternal there will be a fair and full trial. All tesdmoney shall be there and shall be produced in full court at that trial. Hence it will be a final trial and from that court there will be no appeal. By the final sentence no one will be wronged. Everyone will be sent to his own place. We know not how soon the icy hand of death may be laid upon us, but this we know that death is stealing on. yes he is stealing on. Insiduously he approaches. Soon he will be here. How soon we do not known and God’s word does not tell us', but only says: “be ready”. “Prepare” That is enough. Were more done, the gracious design might be thwarted. The timid could they hear the voice from above saying “This year thou shalt die”, would become too greatly alarmed to make a safe preparation and would be lost through despair.
Be Ready. The bold would become too presumptuous and hoping to gain everything would loose all by mocking God. But God says: "Be ready.” “Prepare”, and that is surely enough. Timid soul. Oh, flee to Christ this very hour and you may yet be saved. Presumptuous soul -haste away. This very month, this very day, this very hour your doom may be sealed, for the decree may have gone forth that, you must die. Oh. men and women repent, re pent this very night and turn to God and be saved. God commandeth all men everywhere to repent. Farewell. How swiftly the years of our pilgrim age fly. As weeks months and seasons roll silently by; Our days are soon numbered, and death sounds our knell We scarce know our friends till we bid them farewell. The righteous and wicked move swiftly along. They crowd to the grave, both the old and the young, The good rise to heaven, the bad sink to hell. They take on life’s verge an eternal frrcwell. To you, fellow Christians, I turn with delight, 1 >o grave can not harm you, your future is bright; Be faithful and humble, temptations repel. You’ll soon leave this world with a smiling farewell. • •!»»■** Farewell, fellow sinners. I’m free from your blood. My message delivered, but could not compel; Till judgement day breaketh, I bid you farewell. Sunday Afternoon. Prevailing bad weather did not prevent fifteen hundred faithful, interested men from assembling at the tabernacle Sunday afternoon, when Rev. Honeywell preached his last sermon to men on the subject, “The Wages of Sin is Death,” a sermon in itself. The large choir helpel out greatly in the song service and Mr. Ciase had his double quartet sing the selection that has proved quite popular in the meetings. “Brewer’s Big Horses.” Mr. Lutz again gave the congregation a .nance to show their' appreciation of the work Rev. Honeywell has so successfully accomplished in the com-
munity, nearly one hundred dollars bemg added to the subscription list. The Wages of Sin. At the afternoon meeting the evangelist delivered his last sermon to the men, a plain and direct message and as final appeal to the men and boys of this community. “The question of wages has ever been an important one. A few winters ago hardships were endured because 'of a question of wages of the coal men. How many remember the Pullman strike, the Colorado strike, and the others caused by a question of wages. The question is presented every day. I bring to you a vital question, a question of wages and the “Wages of sin is death”. “What is sin? Scripture says it is a transgression ot the law. “Rev. Honeywell fol.owed with a wonderful play of words deschibing sin and what torments and .roubles it has produced. He described as a great river running through secret channels from hells seething ocean till it broke out upon the world in the garden of Eden. It is still runa.ug and it leads to but one place— The wages of sin is death.” He told jf many incidents where death came suddenly, where men and women were tead from the straight and narrow path by companions, he painted sin a black and ugly thing and then he told the rest of that same text which ■a full reads. “The wages of sin is death—but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. ’Thank God there is a fountain opened to all the house of David for sin and all unrighteousness and whosoever will may come and plunge beneath its crimson flood and have their garments washed and irmde white in die blood of the Lamb”. Rev. Honeywell’s concluding message to the men ended thus: Friend, Christ has born the sins of die world. He is able to bear you up. Trust Him. Eighteen years ago last February, I .istened to the story of Jesus. Sick and tired of sin, I staggered to the front and threw myself in His arms. I risked my lite, my reputation, my .uture career, my all, upon this fact: That Jesus could save and could keep. Yes men I risked my all 1 won. Praise God he holds me up. I’ve anchored my soul in the haven jf rest. To sail the wild seas no more; The tempest may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep But jn Jesus I am safe ever more. Sunday Morning. Mr. Clase opened the morning with special song service after the tabernacle was filled with one of the largest crowds experienced in the morning servicer. Mr. Clase expressed his sentiments on the morning by saying: This is the most glorious morning •ve have had in Decatur.” and no doubt the crowd felt the same way. Although the song service was rather short it was above the standard as every person present seemed to put forth every effort, realizing that the life of the tabernacle in Decatur was growing shorter each hour. At 10:35 C. J. Lutz stepped to the platform and ifter a rousing good speech introduced the plan of raising the last collection that was to go to Rev. Honeywell. In just an hour from the time the nen took their places throughout the xudience, taking the names of any one subscribing to the collection, a sum of over two thousand dollars had oeen freely turned over to the committee. Rev. Honeywell’s last mornng sermon was perhaps the most thoughtful of all and no doubt the question of moulding a true Christian character will rest heavily on the minds of all who heard or will read his sermon. Sunday Morning. Rev. Honeywell’s Sunday morning sermon was upon “The Molding of Christian character.” In part he said: “God has a distinct design for the life of every man. He intends for every life to be teplete with goodness, grandeur, and beauty. He intends for the design of human life to produce a character that is useful, beautiful and clean. For this reason he has an intense interest in human affairs. How Potter Works. “The potter places a piece of clay into his wheel and with his hands begins the formation of .some pottery. He wants to make it the best piece possible. If the potter has clay that refuses to make a first-class vessel, he tries to make it a second-class and then a third-class, and does not throw it away until he finds the clay is unresponsive of his touch. “You have in your power to prevent God carrying out his design for your life, because he created man with that power. He wants everybody to be a first-class vessel, but if you arc obstinate and will not let hi he cannot make you first-class. “You can reject the invitations of the evangelist and the promptings of the Holy Spirit in these meetings and I ten years later perhaps accept Chr'st ' and finally be saved. But for all eternity you will be an inferior vessel. Case of Paul. “We can see in the case -of the Apostle Paul an example of a vessel in the iiands of the potter. He was
prepared to be the carrier of the message of salvation to the Gentile by being raised and educated in a t>re city. He was prepared to carry it t ' the Jews by being Jewish born. « education made him one of the b"emost thinkers of his day and o a ages. When God wants to convey a message to the world he chooses a human vessel. When le wanted to teach justification by fail i rather than by good works he sent Martin Luther. The testimony of ihe Holy Spirit us to man’s conversion and acceptance by God was emphasized by John and Charles Wesley alter their conversion in the little Moravian church in I<ondon. ■God lias some message, saint truth, some design he wants to put into your life to convey to Decatur, to tie church, to the world. God’s Desire. "God wants to make beautiful \essels of us. He never made a strictly atilitarian thing. He always crosses] the line of utility into the realm of beauty. He tries in his workings to take out of you the malformations and make of your design of character a beautiful thing. A Christian's character must be beautiful as well as good and honest. Religion is to be made an ornament of grace in the lives of men and God uses sorrows, hardships, cares, and disappointments to beautify people’s characters. “In the church today we have the golden vessels, the men with plenty of money and with ten talents. W e have also the silver vessels the persons not so rich, not so talented, but still useful. Then there is the large mass of clay vessels, but in the eye of God it makes no difference of what material the vessels is made so long as It has been consecrated to His service and is clean. If a vessel of any kind is clean He can use it to His glory. The great question is ‘Am I a clean vessel?' The great question is 'ls your heart given to God? Saturday Nnght. Unfortunately the days of the tabernacle are numbered, surely a great union service of this kind would be welcome in a community every «>iy. What a pleasure it would be to have Rev. Honeywell and his party with us each day the year round. One thing is certain we would have a different Decatur. The service on Saturday night was conducted by Rev. McCombe, the faithful Irishman who has filled the hearts of the community with his kindness and effection as well as filling the pulpit in the absence of Rev. Honeywell. The Junior Cnoir made its last appearance and it seemed they were saving the best for the last for they joined hearts and minds and the result was surprising to all. During the song service Hon. C. L. Walters, representing the Sunshine Choir, in a short speach expressing the joy and happiness the children had found in the work of Mr. and Mrs. Clase and Mr. and Mrs. McCombe, presented them with a token of their fondest love and appreciation in me form of, as Mr. McCombe expressed it. a “green back.” In a return speach of thanks, Mr. Clase said. "In all the towns we have labored I have never had a finer Junior chorus than I have right here.” At the close of the meeting every child on the choi platform and undoubtedly through out the audience pressed their way to where Mr. Clase stood shaking his hand, bidding goodbye to the man they have learned to love and honor. Mr. McCombe in a few words said to the choir and the audience as well, “We will be gone a long time before we forget the kindness extended us in Decatur.” Before the sermon Mr. and Mrs. Clase sang in a duet, "He’ll never forget to keep me.”

Taking his text from Luke 18, J». sus thou son of David, have mercy on me. Basing ilia sermon on the story of Jesus healing the blind man oi Jerusalem which he protrayed in a vivid word picture, part of the time seated as if in an earnest convert, tion with the blindman. “The man trying to live outside c,f Jesus Christ, is a very poor man. You have eyes to see yet you are blind In the sight of Jesus Christ 'Just because you are too stubborn to con fes your sins, but let me tell you folks you will have to open your spiritual eyes some day and then it might be too late. Walk right up and get in line with others who have found that it is impossible to live with u<>t the sight and help of Jesus Christ. There are more women holding back their husbands and families, in De. catur than any other place we have ever labeled. God pity the wife that is so low down and sinful as to held back a husband from accepting Jesus as his Savior.” Working his sermon up to a sudden climax he had the congregation stand and gave the invitation to those who wished to step out of their lives st sin and look on the face of Christ their Savior. Eighteen saw fit to mend their wavs and after prayers by Rev. Rogers aid Mrs. McCombe the last Saturday night meeting in the tabernacle closed. Saturday Afternoon. The closing of the afternoon meeting Saturday was not only the closing of that meeting but the closing of the series of meetings that have been held every afternoon since the campaign opened. The attendance was unusually good due to the fact that people from all over the county are taking their last chances to be in the meetings conducted by Rev. Honeywell er his party. The song service was most inspiring and it seems that the audience are putting in a special effort to please Mr. Clase. The opening prayer was offered by Rev. J. E. Hewson of Indianapolis who is conducting evangelistic meetings at the Beulah M. E. Church one half mile north of Preble. Rev. McCombe, with his last afternoon sermon put the glorious finishing touches on the great masterpiece of art he is assisting in completing in the work for Almighty God. His text was taken from Acts 27-10. The se vmon could not be made brief and be complete, net by one word for every word counts a mighty stroke in th<“ sermons of Rev. McCombe. In one inspiring thought he said, “Honor God, The man or woman that honors God will some day be honored by Him in turn and you will never be able to stand without the love and faith of GodMrs. McCombe closed the meeting with a beautiful prayer, very much like a heart to heart talk with God The $16.50 suits to meas ure were unknown in Decatur untl we came here.—Elwood Tailoring Co.
