.ludica Sun Sermon Given (Continued from Page One) l valid and , tli. :u ions to , ffe, t Ib, ii 1 redempt lon. It cleanses from all I sin! (John 1,7.1 I'nto all who trust in the vicarious life and death of th« sinless High Priest Jesus Christ is imitated the meritorious and redemptive offering of Christ i and HI righteousness unto the for- ■ giveness of their sins with a recon i cil'-d Father. (Is 45, 24; llom. x, 33; ('or 5. 21; llom. I, 25; llom. 3, 22; in ■ I). No perpetual offering in an unbloody manner is required, nor cun be brought, if Christ, us the Scrip taro says; ''By one offering hath perfis-ted forever them that ar< part from shedding of blood there Is am tilled." i Heb. 10, 141 and, "ano remission." (Helt, it, 22) The redemption of sinners and the offering for the satsfaction of all sins is an t-ffe( tert fact. And the work of JeI sits Christ as our High Priest con

Jsists in being our advocate with tie Father, “if any man sin. we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus iCbrisl, the Righteous." (John 2.1.) There is no other advocate and mediator but Christ. Every sinner may have direct access to the throne of God’s mercy and benediction through Jesus Christ, the only High Priest and Mediator of (he New Testament whose offering and intercession have the function of divine institution resting upon them sis such. Every intercession implored in the name of any other is a abrogation of the office resting solely in Jesus Christ, the True and Only High Priest. Every offering brought to perfect the offering of Christ ouce for all is sin abomination before God. "In and through the merit of Christ our life becomes acceptable to God. who enables us "to serve the living God." How could tile service of unreconciled man bo pleasing unto the holy ssnd righteous God? For Christ, our High Priest's sake, God is pleased with the service of all who accept and cling to Jesus Christ as their high priest and mediator by faith. This faith cometh by hearing the Word of God and is strengthened in us by Word and Sacrament, so that we continue in His way and work the works of faith, while it is day. The night cometh when no man can work.” —(John 9. 4.)

These were Robinson, of Anderson, and Wolfe, of Vincennes. Benzol, of Bedford, Dickerson, of Crawfordsville, Thornburg, of Muncie,l and Harper, of Vincennes, deserve first team positions. Honorable mention is given Nixon, of Richmond. Stokes, of Warsaw. Huffen of Columbus, and Oliver, of Frankfort. Beckner, of Muncie, was by far the 1 best center on any team that reached Indianapolis. A rugged athlete with a world of speed, Beckner covered the floor and was a big factor in his' team's defense and Muncie became' 'lie "dark horse" that earned the right to meet Vincennes in the final game ‘ Beckner averaged four field goals to each game played by Muncie in the state tourney.
