' First 111 rush up to Jesug and I'll

"Think On These
Advice of Rev. "Billy" Sunday
; Hilly" Sunday's sermon Saturday
ulnrht waa as follows:
. Tett: "Whatsoever things are true '
think en theae things.- PhlUlp
ulans, lv;L
; It pays In a thousand ways to be In
line and harmony with things that are
demonstrated to be true.
it is af act that a certain direction Is
always north and has been the salvation
of every ship to guide Its course by the
compass which always points In this
inreolion.
i It Is a fact that there was a great
giant In steam which for ages lay waiting
to be discovered to be made to drive
trains and turn machinery.
It Is a tact that there has always been
a great power in coal, waiting to be
discovered to heat the houae and make
steam and do a thousand ether things.
It Is a fact that there has always been
an enormous power In electricity waiting
for ages te be discovered te be made to
drive oars, light bouses, whirl fans.
It Is a fact that there la a fortune In
almost every weed that grows by the
road waiting to be discovered to make
someone rich. J believe that every dis
ease can be cured by some weed If we
an only discover It. There Is not an all-
ment that God hasn't somewhere an herb
Browing that will cure that ailment,
Bo It Is sound advloe that from all
known experience It Is profitable for men
to think on these things.
So we have to think or we will suf f sr
great losses. The world suffered the loss
at theae great things until . these men
stopped te think. This Is true of religion,
""Whatsoever things are true, think on
these things."
Whatsoever Is true in the material
world Is true in the real man and truth
which affects the soul ts more Important
than truths that affect the body.
Disease affects body but not soul. Tou
think and buy clothes to eovsr yourself
and keep you warm. Tou think and buy
foci to keep you from" getting hungry.
Therefore, It la a fact that the soul U
more Important than the body, so think
en things that will benefit the soul.
People. Dos't Thlasu .
Health Is mure Important than the coat
of paint on your house or the color of
your dress or suit. You think of these
things, but there ts nothing harder than
to get a man to think of things pertain
ing to his soul. ...
If they'd only think and anticipate a
little there wouldn't be so many families
in poverty today. If we would only
think a little there wouldn't be so many
souls outside the church today and the
no rid wouldn't be going to the duvll so
fiut.
Hut pruple won't think today. That's
tho reason so many are . living In
wreKhvd poverty. The tuotiey rolled In
and th.y spent It They didn't stop to
think of the morrow. That's tha reaaon

They don't stop to consider tiod's law.
The fact that you are here tonight le
proof enough, for me thet you eju-e will

which will t fur your benefit -
Almost every steamship disaster, every

That's why we suffer so much today.

"IJIIly'e" sermon was the same as In
the afternoon and he varied but little
frofn It. Onre he was carried away with
Indlsnatlon at what he called the "great
flood of fool. Jarkesa laws that are aweep

"I marvel." he cried as he stamped
the floor, "that the railroads of tbe coun

Another time his wrath feel thick and

beoause ef an editorial wrlch had ap

There was mueh amusement when,
after be had mentioned that all the good

took time to think.
If I could only get you to think.
"Whatsoever la true, think on these
things." ..
Bible le tend'a Word.
X want you tonight te think of some
things that are true.
First, the Bible Is the word of God.
Nothing has ever been more clearly
established In ths world today, and Ood
blesses every nation and people that
reverence It
It has stood the test of time. No book
has so endured through the ages. No
book has been so hated. Everything the
cunning of man, philosophy, brutality,
could contrive has been dona, but It has
withstood them all.
There is no book which has such a
circulation today. Bible, are dropping
from the press like the I leaves In
autumn. There are KO.000,000 coplea it
Is read by.all nations. It has been trans
lated Into M0 languages and dialects.
Men have been thrown to beasts and
burned to death for having a Bible in
their possession. There have been wars
over the rtlble; cities have been de
stroyed. Nothing over brought such per
secution as the Bible.
Kverythlng vile, dirty.' rotten and inl
aultoua has been fcrouuht tn tuu
it because It reveals man's ouaeedness.
But It s nere, and Its power and In
fluence IS greater todar than ve

panderer and everything evil has ba
against It. and la against It, but It ts
the word of Ood and millions of people
know It
This being true, It U of the highest im
portance that you should think of tbe
truth In It I'll bet my Ufa that there
are hundreds of you out thM h.i
haven't read ten pagea of the lilble In
ton years, some of you never open it
except for a birth, a hiarrlmsa
death, and then Just to keep your family
recorus straight It's a dlagraoe and an
Insult I repeat it. It's a dlagrace and
Insult -
Don't blame Ood If you wind up' in

about It

it Is the only buuk that telle r m
Ood that we can love, a heaven to win, a
hell to ahua and a Savior that can aava.
Why did Ood five ua tha Hlhl.T aw.
Lthat we might believe In Christ No other
sooa tells us this. It telle us why the
lilble was written, that wa mlvht bliv

Tou don't read a railroad guide to learn

book what the author put In It. find out

as dead as those that are mangled. Alt
or them are dead. They no longer llv.
Many a man, alive physically, but dead
spiritually, la dead to Ood and the power
of the Fplrlt. A lot of you out there to
night are dead to Ood.
Aome men are dead to Ood more than
others. Some are drunken, dirty sots,
while others have led a moral life, nut
both are dead to Ood. It Is as necessary
for a man to believe In Jesus to hsvo
spiritual life, ss It is to have eyes to sne
and ears to hear.
I've seen men who were really In
earnest when they said thsy had trlej
and couldn't believe In Jesus Christ 1
rouldn t once, but I got right and no'V
I can.
The trouble with them Is they want M
hold en to some sla. That's why I knock
so hsrd against sin. I never ',iew any
one who would not believe In Christ who
hadn't some sin be was holding on to.
That's tbe reason I go so hard against
sm ana try to get you to abandon It
and not try to persuade you through
your intelligence.
There is only one way to have ths

obey It
Tou say you can't understand It.
There's an A B C In religion Just as In
everything else. When you go to school
you learn the A O C's and then you go
on and pretty soon can underatand some
thing you thought you never could when
you started out
So In religion. Begin with the simple
things and go on and you'll understand.
That's what It was written for, that you
might read and believe and be saved.

The age-Ions cry of the human heart
hss been for the revelstlon of a super
natural Saviour. The cry was heard from
the day of Job down through the cen
turies. How does It hapimn you never hear of
any man being saved by I'latn, Emerson,
Carlyle or any other msn? No. Never
by any one but Jesus Christ Why?
I'll tell you. Because Jesus Christ Is
the son of Ood. That's tru. The Bible
says so, and It's true. When any man
stsnds up and praises Jesus Just as a
good man, but denies ills divinity, it's
an Insult to Ood. I say to him that he
Is Insulting Ood. I say to him that he
Is Insulting Almighty Ood.
All men must die and after death the
Judgment. We all must die. Our lives
may be anuffed out In a moment or we
may die after lingering Illness, but we'll
all die some time, that's sure,
We don't know when It will be; It may
be tonight; so Isn't It good sense to ac
cept Jesus now 7 Why, certainly.
I can't understand on my soul I can't
understand wliy men won't accept Christ.
I preach till I'm tired and my voice Is
all worn out and I am troubled and can't

sleep, and I can t understand why any
msn refuses to come to Jesus. I can't
understand why It should be necessary
to plead with people to accept Jesus
Christ and live as He would have them
live.
Heathens Believe In a Jodameat.
All the heathen nations believe In a
Judgment Isn't that queer? Can you un
derstand It? It Is to appease his gods
that the Indian snake dancer dances while
he wreathes himself with writhing
snakea. It Is his hope that those snakes
will find their way down to ths bowels
of the earth and placate the gods he wor
ships and before whom he has got to
stand Judgment
The Asteo prepared his altar of stone
and laid his daughter upon It and saorl-
flced her. It was hla hope that her blood
wouia ne accepted as a saennce py nis
god and that he would be saved in Judg-
hisnt.
It was because of this belief In Judg-
ment that ths Hindu mother takes her
baby down to the banks of the Ganges
and raises It aloft and throws It Into the
yawning Jaws of the horrid crocodiles
who live In the filthy river ahs thinks
sacred. She hopes that her god will ec-
cspt her baby's life as a sacrifice and that
she will be saved.
These heathen people do these things
because they believe in a Judgment and
want to escape it.
You are trying to bribe Ood with cul-
ture and philanthropy. If you don't be-, nd self-sacrificing and pure and vlr
lleve In the Judgment you are lower down . tuous Is bidding for them. All that ts
than the heathen. If you have any sense vlle "nd rotten and unKodly la bidding
you won't want to facs tbe Judgment un
saved. I don't want anything to do with
It that way, myself,
Captain Arkwright ascended the Ap,
In Swltserland and he slipped and fell
into a rift in a glacier and met death,
They could not find his body.
Thirty years after they found his body
there where It had fallen. It was not de
cayed, but was Just as it was when he
met his death. Ills watch was thors, his
pocketbook waa there. Everything waa
aa It had been thirty years before.
So, In the Judgment everything will be
preserved Just at It was on earth, and
will be revealed before the sight of Ood.
Decide Where to Spend Btrralty.
A doctor called me into his office and
said: "Bill, I want to show you the X
ray." He took a pin and placed it in the
middle of an unabridged dictionary, and
with the X-ray I could see It there.
I could see his backbone, with the bones
branching out He showed me his skull
through It, and I could look right through
his feet and see the nails In his shoes.
I saw the outline of a living organism,
and it waa his heart.
That was wonderful, but Ood will see
more clearly at the Judgment Nothing
will be hidden from Him.
Tou are going to live forever, some
where. Don't forget that Death la net
an eternal sleep. If I knew that there
was no hell I'd live Just the same kind
of a lira that I am now, because of the
peace of mind, ths happiness that comes
In this world, to say nothing of the nert
Tou are going to live forever In heaven
or you are going to live forever In hell.
There's no other place Just the two.
It is for you to decide. It's up to you.
And you must decide now, while you
are alive. You can't go to heaven unless
you repent, and the only chance you'll
ever have to repent la In this life.
It's true that there Is a heaven, but
It isn't for everybody. It la a place set
apart for those who believe In Jesus .
Christ. If you die in your sins you can't j
get into heaven. Never, no sinner can
enter there. It wasn't mads for sinners
that's all.
Those facts ought to inspire everybody.
I never could understand why tt is neces
sary to have to work hard to get people '
to go to heaven.' Just the promises of
Ood should make people want to se' Ve !
Him. I
It's true that there Is a hell. Jesus 1
talked more about bell than He did '
about heaven didn't try to describe It to
us at all. He Just said: "In my Father's !
nouse are many manslona. I go to pre
pare a place for you. If It were not ao 1
would not have told you."
But Jesus said a great deal about hell
He said hell ts everlasting.

The Judgment will fix your sternal des
tiny. Ood permits man to choose whether
he ahall be a rtbel or a loyal subject of
Hla That's the wonder of It to me. that
Ood should luave such a dtcUlon to us.
He gives you the right to choose
whether you ahall obey Him or not. but
He hold, you responsible for the choice
you make. You can go te hell If you
want to. That's God s law.
Law Is necessary. It is necceeary to
men; and law would amount to nothing if
there Was no penalty. Lawa are nccea
sary to tell you what you may do and
what you may not do.
Ood says: "Here U ths law. If you
do wrong here is the penalty."
If Ood had no penalty for sin we'd
laugh Him to scorn. Ood leaves tt all
to you He tells you exactly what the
ree-ft of your decUlon will tie either
way. Il l liod's law.
Whenever man makea a law and at
