terday—Will Speak In Tabernacle
To-night and To-morrow
Much of the success of the first
three Weeks of evangelistic work in
the borough appears to be due to the
energy displayed by Mrs. C. B. Hillis,
wife of the evangelist, who, with her
attractive manner of speech, is quite
a drawing card and her services are
greatly in demand. Yesterday after
noon she entertained a large audience
in the Main Street Church of God.
This evening at 7.4-6 o'cloek sfce will
open the tabernacle service with a well
prepared address and to-morTow after
noon at 2.30 o'clock she will speak at
the same place on the subject, MThe
Valine of Purity." This meeting will
be for women only, or girls over 14
years of age. "'First Things First"
was the subject used by Evangelist
Hillis last evening. He said:
"The saddest thing we find in life
is that so many people are putting un
important things first. Everybody is
seeking something. Many men are seek
ing money first. It is all right to get
money if you get it honestly, but its
place is not first. God is first. Another
thing that people are seeking is pleas
ure. This is all that many society
women are seeking. The siu of modern
society is something awful. You never
see real society women at a revival or
at church.
I "Many are seeking after fame and
notoriety. The ißible says we are to
seek first to be a Christian. Being a
Christian is having Christ live in you.
"W e should seek to be a Christian be
cause of the shortness of life. It be
hooves every one to consider where he
shall spend eternity, in heaven or in
hell. When you are asked to become
a Christian do it, for if you don't after
while your heart will become as hard
as a stone. When ought you to seek
Christ and become a Christian? Seek
first, now. What are the results! A
peace that passeth all understanding.
A joy that shall never end. Victory
over every sin."
