FIRST STREET M. E. EUt'RrH.
sternum l>) lll*hup Uecncr.
A Large congregation a sembled at the
First Street Methodist Church Sunday
morning to hear the sermon by Bishop
Keener. There were many ministers in
tho congregation, most of whom had
never before had an opportunity to hear
tho Bishop.
Tho text was Genesis xxit: VIII. "And
Abraham scud, ‘My son, God will provide
Himself a lamb for a burnt offering.' ”
There can bo no analysis or de'erip-
tion of this sermon which can convoy a
just idea of its character. It was a pro
found logical oxegisis of the plan of sal
vation through tho death of Jesus Christ,
and tho preacher presented tho wonder
ful lovo of God, through which tho sacri
fice was made, in tho glowing language
of truth and eloquence.
Tho Bishop is not a fine orator; but ho
is a profound thinker, and his magnifi
cent reasoning powers amount to tho
highest gifts of eloquence, no uses
many fine figures of speech, and is very
happy in the selections of his illustra
tions and parallels, and keeps so closely
in view the point under discussion that
he does not lose sight of it for a moment.
IBs congregation was greatly edified by
tho sermon.
After the sermon tho ceremony of or
dination of Eldersjwas performed. Some
half a dozen candidates presented them
selves and were ordained according to the
forms of the church. The Bishop was
assisted in this serve v by some of the
Presiding Elders and two of the oldest
ministers in the Conferuee.
