The Text "What shall I do with Jesus, which is called the Christ." Matthew 27th chapter, 22nd verse.

In his sermon Sunday night, Rev. W. A. Sunday said: Nineteen hundred years ago a star poised above a lowly manger in Bethlehem, and above the moonlit hills of Judea the angels heralded the beginning of the life of Jesua Christ upon this earth, who came to teach us the religion of human kindness, brotherly love and repentence through faith in his shed blood. No matter what he said or did, the Jews refused to acknowledge his claims as the Messiah, and their enmity finally culminated in the greatest tragedy that the brutality of man ever committed or the eye of God ever witnessed the murder of Jesus Christ under false testimony. Jealou3 of His popularity, and rejecting Hia Divinity, they resolved at alj. hazards to kill Him.

Not having the power of life and or death In their own hands or tribunals, they denou'ved Him before Pilate, the Roman Overnor. To stir up his enmity, they said that He was an imposter, that He had stirred up sedition and that He was an ene-

Jesus.'that would only Increase their

enmity and their hatred and they would bring stronger Influence to bear. And Pilate figured out: "These Jews up at Jerusalem have no use for Jesus. They say he . Is a fraud. If they hear that I say that he Is not a fraud, they will have no use for me; but If they hear that I have denounced him, I will "win their friendship, they will withdraw their opposition and I will hold my job."

And Pilate was willing to let that! gang nail Jesus Christ on the cross' to keep their friendship and hold his' Job; he was perfectly willing to do it.' And there are people that are willing to do the same thing today, all over: this land, for a trifling reason. And! Pilate, my friends, asked himself:! "What would the Jews say about it?", Pilate should not have yielded to; their clamor. He should have been : willing to sacrifice his office and hisj life to avoid convicting Jesu3 Christ, an innocent person. It was that Jew

ish hierarchy that threatened old Pilate as an officeholder.

Pilate was a stand-pat, free, lunch, pie counter, pliable, plastic, lickspit-i tie, rat hole, tin horn, weasel-eyed, i

ward-heeling, grafting, whiskey-soaked politician of his day, pure and simple. Old Pilate was a direct product of the

political system of Rome. Pilate was!

a typical machine politician, and there

Jesus on my hands

And Pilate was very near the line. He tried to reason with them and he arose from the throne and took Jesus by the hand and led him out in front of them and asked them: "What shall I do then with Jesus, which is called the Christ?" I And so I lead Him out before this j audience tonight and I ask you the; same words that Pilate asked the crowd that surged around the throne that day. Pilate was confronted, my friends with difficulties. He ha )nany thing3 to encourage him and he had many things to discourage him. First to encourage him, he had his wife's dream. The storv of Mrs. Pilate is very brief-

ly told in the Bible. It is all contained i in, one verse of Scripture. It is no ev-j

common people. They made a mis I

take when they gave the dirty pups the power. So. "What will the Jews say?" Listen. "What will Caesar say?" Caesar's word was law. Pilate says: "If Caesar tip at Rome hears that I have let Jesus go, and

by that act admitted that I believe His claims are Just. Caesar won't stand for it, off will come my head, and I will surely lose my job. But

What He revealed, I don't know, but it was presumably about Jesus ,and the part her husband was to play in this tragedy, because they couldn't put Him on the cross without the consent of Pilate. And she sent a messenger to Pilate Tilth the message: "Have thou noth

"What shall I do?" In the battle of San Juan Hill, in the SpanishAmerjcan war, a rough rider was wounded on an eminence. They supposed him dead, when he was seen to wave his bloodstained handkerchief and the Krag-Jprgensen and. the Mauser bullets were singing their death song back and forth.. One of his friends, a cowboy from Arizona, turned to his colonel and said: "Colonel, I will go and 6ave him." "Oh, Jack," the colonel said, "you couldn't live out in that zone. You would be cut to pieces. I guess he is gone." But presently they saw the wounded American soldier wave his bloodstained handkerchief again. He said: "Look, he isn't dead. I will go and save him." And, he threw down his KragJorgensen and throwing his arms to his face as if to protect him from the bullets, he dashed out into the zone. But what protection would flesh and bones be against steel bullets that could go three miles and go through 32 inches of solid wood? He ran out and grabbed his comrade and dragged him over the brow of the hill, when a bullet from a Spanish sharpshooter struck him Just above the heart. It 'went through him as if he were made of papier-mache. He dropped his com. -rade and a crimson tide spurted from his nose and eyes and lips. He said: "Tom, pard, I'm hit hard. It's all" up with me. I wish you well," and he reeled and fell dead. The man crept back into the ranks to tell the story. Oh, if Jesus could come down here, I wouldn't let Him get all the way here. I would Jump from the platform and go to 'meet him. He saved me and my wife and children, and I'll go where He commands me to go, and I'll go where He wants me to go.

been there. And a reading of the New Testament makes it mighty clear to the ordinary mind that Jesus at the time of His crucifixion was mighty popular with the masses. The common people heard Him gladly. Only a little while before His crucifixion Jerusalem turned out en masse to hear Him and they gave him a popular reception. -Christ Railroaded To His Death. And the only way that that miserable little clique of Jerusalem politicians and high priests could escape the wrath of the masses was to rail-

had said: "This isn't for you to have

your brother Philip's wife." He want-; ed Jesus and his brother Philip's wife, but he couldn't heve both, so he turned Jesus down and kept his brother Philip's wife, which was against the law. If you are willing to forsake every known sin, God will forgive you, but you can't compromise the thing. "What shall I do with Jesus ?" You must do one of two things, either accept or reject Him. There is nothing else to do. Neutrality is absolute: ly impossible. The opportunity to do right, imposes the obligation to do right. There is no middle ground; you either accept or you reject.

SUNDAY SAYS Pilata should have been willing to sacrifice his office and his life- to avoid convicting Jesus Christ, an innocent person. If you are willing to forsake every known sin, God will forgive you, but you can't compromise the thing. No man or woman on earth, no matter how low down or high up, can confine' the results of your acts to yourself. What you do influences other people. They are either damned or pleased by what you do. Any person that you displease by being a Christian is a low down pup.

The vilest sinner on earth if he accepts Jesus will be saved. Hell was prepared for the devil

and his angels. God never made hell for men.

God made heaven for men, but if a man is a fool and serves the devil, then he will go to hell and live with the devil. There are men and women that are held by the enslaving power of appetite in bonds stronger than steel and more enduring. I have got to assault some popular institutions and I don't care three whoops this side of perdition what may be said about me doing it. The wicked shall not live out half their lives and there is a day of judgment coming that will correspond with the kind of life that a man lives. As to whether I know what I am talking about, I will not pump hot

air at you.

Preaching one of hia beat sermon?;;' Sunday night, to an audience that fv jammed the tabernacle to the door.

Preaching on the famous words of Pilate, "What shall I do with Christ'" Sunday swept his hearers with one of the strongest orations that he has yet i delivered to a Richmond audience.
