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.
