Large Congregations Continue To Attend Prayer Week Services

Last night in St. James Church a large congregation worshipped. The service was conducted by the minister of the church. the Rcv. R. Moorhead Leonie assisted by various City ministers.

The Rev Hugh Miller brought the message on the theme. "The Chris- tian's Assurance," or in other words "The Verities of our Chris- tiau F‘aiih.” Every Christian pcr- son has his confcxsion of faith though he may express it in dif- ferent dorms. Confession or declaration of faith must be ex- pressed in a positive crccd. Some- times we may have difficulty in ac- cepting the truths disclosed since the beginning of Christendom. When the clouds come and hard- ships face us perhaps we hesitate to accept the old beliefs. In world conditions we sometimes find a stumbling block to our beliefs.

The old traditions are decaying Social and enonclnic customs are not holding as in ages past. In- stitutions are clunibJiig inio dust. In these conditions we find our- selves face to face with our faith.

We are ourselves, Is there any- thing which cannot be shaken Our answer is definitely "Yes," and we will enumerate a few of them: 1st. Sovereignty of Almighty God. The Lord God oninipotent still reigneth and He is not afar off, There are times when God's throne is surrounded with dark- ness. This conciiiiou should lead us to see the judgment of God.

2nd. The Supremacy of spiritual forces. Sometimes this is difficult to bcleievc. We face the danger of letting slip moral and spiritual forces-for mere temporal forces. (a) Truth is a spit-halal force and etemai. Christ was truth. (b) The cry for freedom of the soul of ninn is another spiritual forcc. (c) Love manifest. in Jesus Christ is eternal.

3rd. The law of moral retribu- tion, "The wages of sin is death" -"The soul that sinncih. it shall die." A'l sin lends to (loath and not merely death in the future- but death of something within us every time we sin.

Text 2 Tim. 1:12. "I know in whom I have bsilicvcrl and am prr- suaded that Ho is ablc to kccp that which I have committed unto Him" The Apostle found assurance in Christ. We may hnve the some assurance.
