: "The public is with us. It says

Two-Minute Sermons

THINK OF OTHERS.
The firt thing a convert la
Christianity think of is the other
fellow, tlow (ten have I seen
people at a revival fall on their
knees and call out, Tray for my
mother,"' Tray for my sister," or
Tray for my huband."
Why, if the Christian spirit shoutJ
gain a stronger hold, there would
even be fewer automobile acci
dents, 1'eople would never forget
me rutin oi in
ers. The man who
takes his pleasure
or profit at the
expense of others
is committing a
great wrongs. No
one has any busi

1 1 ,,ie Christian a
VI foreign thing. He
thinks of others
at all times. Who
saves his life shall
lose it. I am most truly my own
when I have given every vestige of
myself. I am most truly live when
willing to die for others.
In the 91st Tsalm you will find in
one verse: "I will say of the Lord:
He is my refuge and my fortress;
my God, in Him will I trust." In
the next verse the psalmist ex
presses the idea, "I'm safe, you may
be saved, too." in these words:

"Please help me to find my father,"
writes Howard Burnett, IS. 21S Thir

Mayor Dahlman. "My mother is
not stronir and we have our living to
make. 1 have not seen my father
for six years, but we heard from him
in 1919 and he gave the address, 704

Inquiry at that address failed to

the noisome pestilence."
The selfish life does not think of
anybody. When one becomes a
Christian, self goes with the last
load. We save our soul in saviug
others. It is not the question fl
that man out there will be saved if I
do not go to him, but the ji estion is,

Socrates said. "Know thyself."
Jesus said, "Deny thyself.'
The real Christian studies large
maps; he can't help it. It is a big
thing to be a Christian. It requires
big thinking and big living. But it
is possible to any man of strong will
or strong faith.
Text: Then shall they also answer
him,' saying, Lord, when saw we
thee an hungered, or athirst, or a
stranger, or naked, or sick, or in
prison, and did not minister unto
thee?
Then shall he answer them, say
ing, Verily I say unto you, inas
much as ye did it not to one oi the
leant of these, ye did it not to me.'
