SERMONS OF SUNDAY
Dr. Be’k Talks of ‘‘Ths Life and Influ
ence of Daniel.”
L'RGE CONGREGATION PRESENT
Dr. Headdon Delivers one of the Beet Ser
mons He B»» Preecbed Chis Ye»r.
At Other Place,.
A lare e congregation greeted Dr.
8. R. Belk at the First Methodist
church Sdnday morning.
.All were highly pleased with the
sermon on "The Life and Influence of
Daniel” by Dr. Belk.
He characterized D" niel as a grand
man and "noble politician. ” He
thought that every child and man and
woman could learn useful lessons from
the steadfastness of life of Daniel.
He was not a man who could be
bought, nor could he be driven from
what he thought was right by fear of
punishmeqt. He was cast into the
lion’s den and’pilloweds his head on
I the mane of one of the kings of the
forest.
Dr. Belk told of an incident in the
life of a mechanic named Henry Wil
son, of Boston, wtio refused to drink
wine with President Adams, and af
terwards became vice president of the
United States.
The sermon was heard with close at
tention throughout by the large con
gregation. 5
At the conclusion of the sermon a
conference was held to arrange re
ports to be sent to the North Georgia
conference which meets at Athens in
seven weeks, Supt. H. B. Parks, of
the Sunday school, reported a». aver
age attendance of 165. Dr. Belk
stated that be knew every man,
woman ahd child in his congregation
and had made 500 visits since Sept. 8.
Other interesting reports were made.
The First Baptist Church.
To a large and attentive congrega
tion Dr. Headden delivered one of his
strong and impressive sermons at the
morning service.
He read a portion of the stb chap
ter of Matthew, Christ’s sermon on
the mount, as the morning lesson, and
from the 13th to the 16th verses inclu
sive, he took his text.
The leading thought in his discourse
was based upon the words: "Ye are
the salt of the earth” and "Ye are the
light of the world.” Christ, speaking
to His disciple, gives them for an ob
ject lesson two of the most important
factors of life, sunshine and salt, and
the benefit derived from each. But
should the disciples fail to live as
they ought they become as salt that
has lost its savoir.
They should let their light shine
ever as a city set on a hill, or as a cau
dle on U candlestick and not hide it
under a bushel.
The doctor also spoke of the influ
ences for good flowing out to the
world from the Bible and its teachings
even upon those who were not pro
fessors. The lives of Christian men
and women exerted an influence al
ways for good when they let their
lights shine.
Some Christians were like a clock
that did not strike the hours, and yet
by looking at them we know they were
true followers of Christ. Others were
like the clock that struck the hours,
always ready by word and deed to
proclaim their allegience to the cause
of Christ and work for the good ot
mankind.
An earnest appeal was made to ail I
Christians to strive to exert and in
fluence for good, so let their lights
shine, to striee for a purer and holier
life and in every way to help on the
cause.
A word of warning was also given
to’the unconverted in bis earnest man
ner, and an impression for good was
lett on all hearts which will no doubt
bear good fruit.
