Jasper County Democrat, Volume 9, Number 36, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 December 1906 — THE REVIVAL AT THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH. [ARTICLE]

THE REVIVAL AT THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH.

Notwithstanding the disagreeable weather for a few evenings, the attendance at the evangelistic meetings has been good, On Thursday evening Rev. Wilson spoke on “The Union of Christians.” He said our Lord prayed for a united church that the world might believe. To-day there is confusion, a waste of talent and funds, while millions are without a knowledge of Christ. He said we must heed the cry, “Back to Christ,” and stand upon this rock foundation. We must magnify the points of agreement, and foster the spirit of union, which is manifesting itself in federations, union meetings and united attacks on sin—the churches common foe. Mr. Wilson will speak to-mor-row (Sunday) afternoon to women only, on the subject, "A Woman’s Power.” Professor Lintt and chorus will sing at each service. The meetings will continue indefinitely.
