W 6 SUTTON 2630 Magnolia Ave. Los Angele* California SILLY ASKS LORD i TO GIVE ATLANTA / SECMIO PENTECOST , If Everybody Will Work and - Pray, God Will Send Down f His Spirit Like the Rain, ’ Says Evangelist n r The revival at Pentecost and how such 1 a revival may happen in Atlanta, if f ’everybody works and prays for it. was Billy Sunday's subject at the tbalernacle Wednesday afternoon. Hig sermon in full follows; Just before His ascension the Lord made known to His disciples the woi k that He wanted them to do and the Teachings He wanted them to spread , broadcast throughout the world. It is recorded in Matthew. He said: "Go ye ' therefore, and teach all nations, t>apU»z , ing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost; Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and. lo I arm with you always, even unto the end of the world." And in Mark, he said: "Go ye into all the wofld. and ’ preach the gospel to every creature. every creature that is white, black, rich i or poor, illiterate or wise. And in Luke He said: "Behold. I send the prom ise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be enbued with power from on high." And in Acts 1.8: "Ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the . uttermost parts of the earth. ' W e see how faithfully they followed out these instructions in the famous ten days prayer ineeeting at Pentecost. My subject this afternoon is "The i Revival at Pentecost" and in what way it can be analogous to one of this city. In .he first place, this was not a man-gotten-up revival, but'one that God Sent down, and so is every true re ' vival of religion: but there are condi- I tions which human beings must fulfill ' before God will even send it down. A revival is something different from a rainstorim— you have nothing to do with ■ a rainstorm. God will exercise His sovereignty and will make it rain •whether you like it or not; and He will I make it snow in April when you think Ijt ought to snow in February; if He takes a notion He will make it snow in June, and so. the Lord runp the weather bureau on that proposition. But there are conditions on which God will save people but you have got to couple yourself up with the Lord before you ever receive the blessing of the Lord. The leader of that meeting was the Holy Spirit fro mstart to finish. Thue disciples went to that upper room wiXji no thoughts or plans of their owfl They had no’ committee on arrange , ments; they had no cut and dried schetf ule where they would have a response reading here and a prayer there, aqjl i take a collection here and a benediction.

No! They began without thought of plans or of methods and they looked to Him for guidance, and there was no visible lead er of that meeting. Now. listen, and we will find out what i they did. They went looking for two great things, and they were not disap pointed. They went first to receive the Holy Ghost and second to receive power. But please remember the re ireiving of the Holy Spirit always pre i cedes powei. ’ I hear people pray God for power , when their lives are so directly op ' posed to God that God can't answer that prayer, and he won't answer it, and yet they are inclined to turn around and blame God when the blame is upon themselves, for they fare not living in ■a way that God could give them the . Holy Spirit. And it is your fault and I not the Lord s. If God provides food and you are too lazy to cook it. if you starve to death it is up to you and i not the Ixird. GO TO CHURCH FOR RIAL REASOBT, HOT TO KILL TIME I think wc would have better pray- ■ er meetings and church services if tne people only went there looking for something, and not go simply because it is Sunday morning and they rang the bell and opened the door. Go there looking for something; not simply ‘ i "kill" time. And you often get nothing because you expect nothing. Well, you are no. disappointed, never in the world: And they can make prapers but they seemingly don't expect tljem to be an- ' swered. But they expected something, for they went standing on the promises of God. which are immutable, unchangeable, ir revocable and as enduring as Gibral tar. Now, the disciples were certain of another thing: They knew that to them was committed the work of car rying on the gospel, and they were chos en by God to do that very work. An other thing, we would be more in ear nest if we only realized that our mis sion is a God-given mission. And un derstand it now, our call today is just as unmistakably clear as was their call. If God is being represented by anybody on earth today, he is being represent ed by the church, and 1 have just as much right to demand of the preachers and the church their co-operation as the President and Congress Has to de mand the co-operation of the people at a time like this, and the only differ ence is. if you don’t co-operate they will send out a conscription and they will make you do it. The government has the power, and it ought to have the power and the right to make you do it if it needs to be done, but if you are not willing to volunteer to do God's work. God nev?r will send out any conscription, but you can go to the devil! That is the dif ference between the two propositions. So I have got a perfect right to ask your co-operation, absolutely. So if God is being represented by anybody today He is being represented by the church, and if we are not doing it, who is? Tell me and 1 will turn to them. Do the breweries represent Christ? Do you want me to turn to the Liquor Deal ers’ association? Do you want me to turn to the distillers and the barkeep ers? Do you want me to go to the red light district and let them line up their J bunch? Where would I go if I can’t I turn to the church? ' And if the church doesn't represent Jesus Christ, who : does'? Do the politicians, the cominer- I cial clubs, the businesses, the societies, ; the literaries? Where? No! 1 turn to God because your God is represented in the world, and we are expected to do the work of the Lord, and if we are I not God’s witnesses, where are the I Lord's witnesses? We have the same | commission to keep this world in a pir I petual state of revival that the disei j pies had. and our cMll is just as clearly ; from God as their call, to do in our day I and generation what they did in theirs. I It is up to us. and if we don’t do it, |it won’t be done. And had they been I like a great many church members I there would have been no waiting ten , days. They would have said: Well, i the way to do this thing right is to i scatter lr/all directions like a shotgun. ■ and one hundred and twenty would have ! rolled up their sleeves and they would I have gotten busy before breakfast, i they would have tarried in Jerusalem | for ten days. Why. that is a waste of , time! But the Bible teaches me that God has an order and away of doing I things—he has in nature, he has. my I friends, in spiritual things. Sow in the spring; reap in the fall? WORK AND PRAY: THAT GET’S RESULTS. Pray and work and you will see the | results of your labors. God has away of doing things spiritually just as well ias He has in the material world, and i you must fulfill the divine order if you want to keep from starving to death. You have got to fulfill the divine or der if you want to be healthy. You vio . rate God’s laws of sanitation and you ' will pay- the price with disease. All right! You have got to do it to live decently. So. work in harmony with the Lord and see how well you get along. The time spent in preparation is never lost. The time your l>oy or girl spends in getting an education isn't lost, for with a bright, brilliant brain they can go out and succeed perhaps better in life. And a tree will come down easier if you ■ take time to grind the axe. If the en gineer didn't take some time to get up steam, he never would get the engine out of the depot; if they didn’t take time to get up steam, they never would I cross the ocean. Time spent in prepa ration is never lost! If I didn’t spend time to hunt and read and get something to preach. 1 would have nothing to say when I got up. I believe in preparation. T believe yon have got to have it every where you tuVn around in life: you can’t do without it. We put fire-escapes on buildings, that is preparing the people, for away to get out. You don't wait until you fall down and break your leg and then run over tn college to find out how H. We have got men who know that now. You have to pre pare everything in life' We pre pare the ground before we put In the seed. We prepare the food before we eat it. So. al) through life, everywhere you turn, you are up against the same prop osition. Now. God's will had the right <of way for those ten days, and the track was clear, and the purposes of God swept on to marvelous victory. They made 1 their domestic and their business ar rangements so as not to interfere with God’s plan. They had no social par- I ties. All right! They had no literary gatherings to attend. They had no com | mittees and conventions, bad no sewing to be done, no house cleaning, no theater parties, hail no business to interfere in i those days, no polities, no lodge, meet- ■ Ings. lam not a member of any lodge, but if I were and lodge meeting came on prayer meeting night. I would go to When the Skin Seems Ablaze With Itching and Burning There’s just one thing to do. If your skin seems ablaze with the fiery burning anti itching of Eczema, real and lasting relief can only come from treatment that goes below the surface —that readies down to the very source of the trouble. So-called skin diseases come from a disordered condi tion of the blood, and the proper treat ment is through the blood. Search far and near, and you cannot prayer meeting instead of lodge meeting. I am not against them. I think they are doing a magnificent work. I pull my hat off to them for the magnificent things that they are doing. And they had no feasts, no suppers, no dances, no card parties, all other things had to get out of their way for God. When house cleaning < oines at the same time as a revival you know which suffers most. And they had nothing that would pre ' vent them from doing the work of God. You do the same thing and see what God i will do here in Atlanta. | "PULL A GUN ON MI, BUT NOT YOUR WATCH!" The Lord's cause had the right of way. They planned to be present at i the meetings. The last verse of Luke - shows how completely they fulfilled it. ' for I read. "They were continuously tn 1 the temple praising and blessing God I They had all-day meetings. Nobody . was anxious to get home by 9 o'clock. They had no clocks to watch. I preach ed tn a church where they had a clock ! screwed up on the front of the pulp't ■ and I think the devil used the screw- I driver. You will never have a revival : when the people are watching the clock. llt makes me sick to see some fellow tank out his watch as though I ant I trespassing on his time. If you want : to pull a gun on me, all right, but don’t I pull a watch. They took time to be religious. ! They took time to pray. They took ‘time to praise God. It is as nnpos.si- I I lc io pray ' earnestly when you are oi. the run as it is to run an automobile with dish water or pink tea. They took ' time to consider who God was. They i took time to consider what God was do . ing for them. And the disciples gave ' time and thought for God , Then, another thing! The brethren ' were there, too. 1 think if more mon I turned out we'd have better meetings, gui that men have a monopoly on reli gion. God knows they haven’t. Judg ing from church attendance, heaver. i won’t be overly crowded with men. If ■ they have enough to scare up a male ■ chorus they will do well. I have no doubt that the disciples bad just as pressing business as your ‘ husbands—Just exactly—but they found time to lay it aside and give God a I chance every once in awhile. They were there and they stayed through the meeting. They didn’t get up and hike out. Some people feel uneasy; some people have the capacity of a th iin file; ’others a hogshead. If you can get fill ed tip quick, why. I'll let you go. NO "DOGGY” HAND SHAKING FOR WILLIAM A. SUNDAY. Then, I find another thing. • They had warm, fervent meetings, no shak ing hands with two fingers, none of this doggy kind of shaking. When I see a woman shaking hands I wonder if she had a boil under her arm. I like the good old poke-handle fashion. It has some heart in it. This bunk oysters and sawdust business! Oh. gentlemen! I Wann meeting—no danger of catching cold by sitting clown in some seat that had just been vacated by some member iof the Official board. No ice water in that meeting, no marble heart, no Klon ; dike. Nothing of that sort. A warm, ' fervent meeting. 1 "And they were all with one accord. i They all wanted something. They, all I wanted it intently. They all wanted the same thing. And they all took hold of God in earnest, and all together, and they would not let go. and they all prayed in the same way. they all prayed for the same thing. Jhey all prayed with one accord. No matter who pray ed. everybody said. "Amen." Nobody said. "now. I wonder if he will pray all night? He will never get through. If I couldn't pray better than that- I wouldn't (Start." None of that spirit in it. No, none at all. Nobody criticised: nobody found fault: nobody knocked; nobody listened through their prejudice; nobody grumbled. I wonder, in God's name, if we'll ever have an other like It. Evidently we never have for we have never seen the results, and it is a disgrace that you have to walk back two thousand years in history to get an illustration of God’s power to save, because the Church of God from that day to this has not fulfilled the I commissions they fulfilled then. “With one accord and in one place.” I bet my life even if your own churches are lined up back of this meeting. I’ll bet your own preachers are knocking it. Be on the square now-. Didn’t you come here in the spirit of a woman last night. As she went by she said. didn’t know whether I would like you or not, but I do." So evidently she came here determined not to. Out in lowa one time they went around to a woman who was very wealthy, and asked her if she would entertain me in her home while I was there. She said, “T don’t know whether I’d like him or not." Finally she decided to take a chance on me. And so she did and her prejudice dissolved, and she said. “Well. : I didn’t know whether I would like I you Mr. Sunday.” I said, "Gosh, I don't know whether ' I'd like you." I said, "It w’ould be : jtist as inconvenient for me to be en ; tertained in your home if I didn't like i you as if you didn’t like me.” And don’t I you think that because you can buy I Persian rugs, and sit behind a power iof wealth, and you have a buttpn on your table, and press the button-z-z-z-z and have somebody running; it is all on your side, sissy. CVLTURID FOLKS CAN BE CROOKS, SAYS SUNDAY. "They were all with one accord.” We need "one accord” in the churches more than we need high church steeples. We need "one accord" more than we need a pipe-organ backed up tn the corner. Wc need “one accord" more than we need cookstoves. We need "one accord” more than we need dishes. We need “one accord” more than we need a grand opera singer up in the choir loft scrap ing calcimine off the ceiling and you can’t understand a word she says. We need "one accord” more than we need multi-millionaires sitting in the pews. God Isn't going to pour out his spirit because some rich duck sits in your pews. We need "one accord” more than ; wc need culture. Some of the biggest ! rogues I have ever met have been men I and women of culture. "One accord"—one mind: no contro- | versy; no discussion: or leaving the dif ficulties off: no denominational fusses; nobody hollering “water, water, water;” ; no Presbyterian talking about the per severance of the saints: no hair-split ting: no worrying about your dinner burning up before you get home; no growling because your note was due and you had nothing to pay it with. All with one mind. And everybody there knew Jesus Christ. Get this point. Ev erybody there was personally acquaint ed with Jesus. They knew him after the ,lesh before they crucified him. They knew him after the spirit after he was resurrected, and there was not a soul in that gathey-ing at Pentecost that was a stranger to Jesus Christ.

(Advt.) man and every woman present had felt his power and had been a recipient of ris power to heal, cleanse, and bless, or he'd dried the teais on their cheeks, or he cast the devil out of some mem ber of the family, or he'd sent a vom iting husband walking home sober to kiss her instead of to beat her up. and indirectly or directly they felt some benefit and blessing because Jesus Christ walked on earth. Everybody there knew Jesus Christ. The leper was there whose corrupt flesh Jesus Christ cleansed by touch ing him—as he touched the leper. Oh. Jesus Christ was better than the Mo saic Jaw. It was against the Mosaic law. It was against the Mosaic law to touch a leper, and that fellow cama up with the rotten, putrifying flesh dropping from his bones. He said, "Lord, if Thou wilt Thou eanst make me clean.’ He said, “I will." He reached out and touched him against the Mosaic law. Oh. Jesus Christ was better than the Mosaic law. Like David, He went into the tem ple one da>. They had been chasing him over the mountains. He was hun gry and He rushed into the temple and there the bread was on the shew ta ble. It .wasn’t lawful for anybody but the high priest, to touch it, and David grabbed it up and h t a hunk off of it and began to eat it, and God didn't Strike him dead. And why? Because David's ceremony was bigger than a priest’s. That’s the kind of a Lord you’ve got. God is no three-carat prop osition. And the blind beggar was there. And tn the ninth chapter of John—gentle men. when I get to heaven he is going to be one of the first fellows I am go ing to look up. And the paralytic whom they let down through the roof. There Is scriptural authority for doing things out of the ordinary. They couldn’t get him in through the door, and so they ripped off the roof and lowered him down in front of Jesus. So if you can’t do it one way do it an other but in God’s name do it. So he was there. Yes and the nobleman's son that Je sus had cleansed was there. The man with a withered hand that Jesus healed in the synagogue on the Safibath day, and that bunch of high-brow thugs knd crooks made at him because he did it. Oh. he was there. And Jairus wjis there and his litle daughter that JeStts raised from the dead one day- over in Capernaum, and the woman that crawl ed through the crowd und touched the hem of his garment, who had an afflic tion that was eating and gnawing her life away like a cancer. She was there. The centurian with his servant that Jesus cleansed was there. Yes. and the man who lain at the Pool of Bethesda for thiriy-eight years waiting for the angel to come down, and Jesus beat him there. Jesus came along and said, "Take up your bed and walk.” And he was there. And the disciples whose hearts burned within them as they walk ed on the way to Emmaus. They were there. Mary, and Martha, and Laarus, they were there. And the woman taken in adultery—in the very act—and Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go and sin no more.” "HALF THE CHURCH FOLK NIVIB WERE CONVEBTED.” .\nc Mary Magdalene, out of whom he cast seven devils, she was there, praying as earnestly and as fervently as any of the others. Everybody at that little meeting knew Jesus Christ and every one of them had an up-to-the-min ute experience, and if you'd call for a testimony meeting you wouldn’t have to nag and pull and beg and tease and coax for five minutes to get somebody to their feet. Then some good old saint would stand up and say, “The Lord la A Medical Mongoos We can manufacture poisons within our own bodies which are as deadly as a snake's venom. The liver acts as a guard over our well-being, sifting out the cinders and ashes from the general circulation. A blockade in the intestines piles a heavy burden upon the liver.

Do not take mineral oils or so-called "Russian Oil,” for the experiments by R. F. McDonald have shown as lately reported in a government publication of the U . S. Public Health Service, that mineral oil may act as an irritant that produces gastro-intestinal disturbances and that it may cause tissue prolifera tion. simulating cancer. The next important organ t<s be reckon ed with is the kidneys. Kidney disease carries away a large percentage of our people. What can the ordinary person do to properly balance bodily health? The answer is not easy, but I advise every body to eat less meat, eat coarse, plain food, with plenty of vegetables, drink plenty of water between meals, and take an uric acid solvent, such as Anuric (double strength), before meals for awhile. Anuric can be obtained at al most any drug store. —(Advt.) Not SI.OO, not even 60c, not one cent cost_to yoo under our easy condition*.

Doctors said my only hope of cure was an operation. Trusses did me no good. Finally I got hold of something that quickly and completely cured me. Years have passel and the rupture has never returned, al though 1 am doing hard work as a carpenter. There was no operation, no lost time, no trou ble. I have nothing to sell, but will give full information about how you may find a com plete cure without operation, if you write to me, Engenc M. Pullen. Carpenter, 462-D Mar cellus Avenue, Manasquan.
