LARGE (CONGREGATION RE.
SPONDS TO POWERFUL SER
MON BY REV. MR. LOVEIN. l
That “Our National has Jost all
consciousness of sin” is the “wstate-'
ment made last night by Rev. N. M.
Lovein, the evangelist who s con
ducting the revival at the Methodist|
church in Cordele. The evangolistl
was preaching from this subject, “Do!
we need a revival?” and it was in|
answer to his own question that he{
made out his case against the nation
at large. l
The text was from Hab. 3:2 and in!
a graphic manner the evangelist told}
of how Judah had in days gone by
walked with God and enjoved him,
but “In Habbakuk’s day, said Mr.
Lovein, “Judah was living as though!
there was no God and the whole na-|
tion was steeped in sin and wicked-l
ness. “And we stand right now!
where Judah stood in the Prophet’s‘
day.” “We have lost all conscious--
ness of God, and of sin, and all faithl
and all fear in a Judgment to coml"l
“And the thing that would save
Judah from her doom was the re
vival for which Habakkuk prayed,
and the only thing that will save our
land and secure our safely and well
being is a real revival of old time,
sin killing religion.
And at the close of the sermon,
practically every one in the large
congregation that greeted the evan-‘
gelist last night, stood, saying there
by that they believed that Cordele
needed just such a revival as M.
Lovein portrayed, and pledged
themselves to do their best to bring
it about. ‘
The singing under Mr. A. E. Park
is proving quite an attraction and
the solo work of this splendid singer
is creating much favorable comment
Rev. J. B. Johnstone, the pastor,

is today which held his hearers in
deepest interest throughout. The mes
sage dealt with the young people—
their growing demand for a share in
the responsibilities of both govern-
Flent and religion. l
He called attention to the fact that
a farreaching young people’s move
ment, starting in China and moving,
,through the greater distant nations'
‘was now working its influence among
American young people. Citing the
‘last annual meeting of the service
men of the country in Des Moines,
he remindad his hearers that these
men had given marked expression as
to what they intended to do in caso
of future warfare, made and imposed
by those who had nothing to do with
the actual fighting. His tribute to}‘
these young men as the advocates of |
peace was a very strong one. l
