EVANGELISTIC SERVICES

Special meetings are now being held at the Baptist church by Rev. D. R. Landis, one of the state Evangelists supported by the Baptist State Convention. Tonight he will begin a series of six sermons treating of things fundamental in redemption. The subject tonight will be, “God’s Purpose Toward Men.” I Tim., 2:4: “Who would have men siaved.” I. God’s purpose. It is not a whim, but a divine purpose. That purpose issues in a tragic event. That event is the deliverance of his Son to the cross. That transaction brings salvation to all men. II. Why does God provide a salvation? 1. He seeks to save a race of men. He made this world for that race. It fell, and the world was involved. God’s purpose Is a new race a new heaven, a new earth.. 2. The state of the lost makes It necessary. There Is no distinction. All have sinned. All come short of the glory of God. They have lost It. The heavens declare theglory of God. Man, his noblest creation, does not. But redeemed humanity will.
