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. Major General W. A. Clarke of Columbia De livers Stirring Address Here Memorial Day.
