Choosing his text from the elev

affliction with tho people of God
than to enjoy the pleasures of «!r.

Disbtylef In God Dr. Morgat
thinks, In today among tho mamict
a thing “In good standing," a thing
at which tho world has ceased tc

"Underneath all the sins of so
ciety today," he said, “is the re
fusal of men to accept Christ at
the great savior cf the world.’
"You students hero w’oufd bo

his life. How he could either
have all tho pleasures of a royal

peoplo of God, with tho suffering

“Which are you going to do," tu

Broughton Says
Grant Wanted to
Fill His Church
Opens Series of Lectures
!At Bible Conference
Here. Skeptics Know
Least About Bible.
By D. H. TAYLOR
Even though there was a -con-
stunt down-pour of ruin ull the
evening, yet Dr. l#en G. Broughton
talked to a well crowded audience
at the First Methodist church I’ri-
nlght. Tho subject Hclccff*
tho evening was “The Mission oi
the Church."
The text portrayed the Disciple;
gathered together in a room and
Christ’s appearance. Since the
crucifixion, the disciples hod been
torn by doubt. They had expect
ed that u worldly kingdom would
be set up in which they a* follow
ers would have a part.. Now the
leader was dead. Christ came to
renew' their faith and start them
out on the evangelisation of the
world.
Jesus appeared to the disciples
in a miraculous way. The do:i
was closed, yet He was suddenl)
in their midst without a door be
ing opened. “Christ," says, l>r
Brouhton, “is the key to ever)
door.” Men scoff at such a miraclt
and declare it unreasonable. A
man appear in a room with closed
doors? . Yet these same men* ac
cept a’ commonplace miracle in
their every day life without t
question.
A flash of electricity In an air
tight vault and in the same in
stunt the ether vibrates on th*
other side of the globe and the
thoughts of (wo men thousands of
pernatural religion and then all
would be accepted.
"As my Father sent me so I send
you into the world.” In these
words the speaker told the mission
of Christ and the disciples. Christ
was sent Into the world to die on
the croM tyat (01 who believed
might live. Then when He ap-
the world of religion the superna
tural is scoffed t nt, while in the
scientific world the fact is accept
ed. Dr. Broughton said that we must
accept the fact that we had a su-
peured to His followers after the
crucifixion and resurrection. He
told them to go int? the world uml
preach a forgiveppss of sins through
the blood of Jesus.
