“REMISSION OF SINS”
MOVEDiLARGE AUDIENCE
Rev. Granberry Delivered
Powerful Sermon
Interest in the revival services at.
the Fallow Lawn Baptist church co:i-|
tinues. The clear, forceful sermons
by Mr. Granberry have found attent
ive listeners.
1 Last night's sermon was one of
special appeal and marked interest.
The texts were:
Hebrews 9:22. —"Wihtout the Shed-1
ding of blood there is no remission/'
I John I:7.—“The blood of Jesus Christ
His Son cleanseth from all sin.”'
“Man should be careful of how he
speaks of the deaih of Christ. The
Book declares that one of the greatest
i
themes of all Revelation is that re
mission or forgiveness of sin is possi-j
ble through shed blood —the life—of
Jesus. The world’s wisdom will make
merry around the cross, but the wis
dom that is from above compels rev
erential acceptau9e of the great and
glorious fact of Jesus’ sacrifice for
mankind.
“Various, indeed, are oftentimes the
methods used by men to secure remis
sion of sin. One of these is seen in
repentance. ‘lf you have a sorrow for
your sin, God accepts you.’ This doc
trine is untrue to the Word. We
should repent, but all the repentance
in the world cannot blot out one spot
of hideous uncleanness. There is no
atoning power in bare repentance. Re
SUMTER COUNTY A GARDEN
IN HER WEALTH OF CROPS
Americus will indeed be the Mecca
of the man behind the cotton bale
when the harvest season comes in Sep
tember, as every indication points to
a splendid crop of corn and cotton
i
and a continuation of the prosperity
which has been felt by the farmers of
Sumter and of this entire esction in
very recent years.
'lt is conceded on every hand that
the lands are in better shape and the
crops further advanced now than for
many seasons heretofore. Added to
this is a spirit of optimism that is
worth much. The farmers are not
only hopeful, but they are working and 1
planning to better purpose than ever
before.
Never before has the prospect been
so bright for an abundant harvest, nor
have the farmers been so well up with
work at this season. Every available
acre of land is under cultivation, and
as clean as a yard.
The farming sections of Sumter are
indeed beautiful now, and one speed
ing over the line roads in an automo
bile will see the most superb farms to
be found in all 'Georgia—excepting
none.
The open weather early in the year
afforded opportunity for farm work
many weeks in advance of the usual
season. Gang plows pulled by gasoline |
engines broke up the ground to a
great depth, the effect of which is seen
upon growing crops now. More fer
tilizer was used than in previous years
and the result is gratifying.
Every field is a garden, and the
county a modern Eden.
Corn—thousands of acres of it—is
half knee high and growing vigorous
ly. Cotton—thousands of acres of It—
is chopped out, as a rule, and the
prospect the prettiest ever known here
in Sumter. Vast fields of oats and
wheat, waist high, and heavily loaded
with fruit, greet the eye in every sec
tion of Sumter.
The acreage in oats is even greater
than last year, when Sumter county
produced 300,000 bushels, and the pros
pect is excellent. In some fields a !
Stetson hat thrown uot will be sup- ]
ported easily, so rank is the grain.
Mamy fields here, it is estimated, will
yield fifty to sixty bushels per acre i
easily, with good seasons. s
prize. This offer will positively not
be repeated at any time during the
Contest.
You are at liberty to get as many
clubs as possible, and no matter where'
you get the subscriptions they will,
count the same. As soon as we receive
'the subscriptions we will issue the
regular votes and extra votes, too,
! and forward same to you that they J
I may be voted or held, as you desire. \
If you have not already entered the j
Contest you should enter as a candi
! date today. A few hours' work would
put you in the lead of the Contest, as
the Contest is just starting. Don’t de
lay; start today.
The list of .candidates is far from
full. There are excellent opportuni
; ties in every district for energetic and
ambitious people to enter and win a
prize. With the announcement of the

pentance is one sign of grace, hut it
alone does not relieve of the guilt of
sin. ■ Ijj.lfHi
"Another means whereby men seek
remission of sin is by or through good
deeds and self-denial. Now these are
good. Let us have reformation. But
the question is how is a past debt
paid by not getting further in debt?
Does future good behavior condone for
past delinquencies?
I • “Others believe that in the cere-
I monies of the church there is re
mission of sin. How wide of the
mark! We are baptized because we
are saved and wish to obey God’s com
mandment; we are not baptized in or-
der that we may be saved,
j “Now all of these means or meth
j ods are futile fancies. These- things
mentioned above are parts of the gos
pel, but not the heart of the gospel.
“God’s plan for salvation from sin
is- through a personal faith in the
Crucified Christ. This sacriflcal act
of Jesus was foretold in the Old Tes
tament, and emphasized in the Nerdt
| Jesus often spoke of the Calvary ex?
periemce and of the glorious benefits
, which would ensue. The sacrifice of
Jesus satisfies the Righteous and Holy
■ i God, and when God looks upon you in
L Christ He beholds a ‘new creature.’
'I “iMan’s part, you say? Well, it is
|to trust Him. Believe in the plan of
■ God and commit yourself to it. If
■ we had had our way we would r:o
i doubt have devised some active plan,
’ but God's way is plain and simple. The
■ | only place of safety is found in the
! Cross of Christ. In the cross we see
‘ the fullest expression of grace. Won
t drous cross! You are not redeemed
) with corruptible things, but with the
-1 precious blood of Christ.”
The finest wheat ever seen here is
growing now, and many farmers will
make their bread supply, something of
a new departure in recent years.
In a fifty-mile ride over the county'
a day or two ago the writer saw some
of the finest portions of the county,
and the best crops to be found any
where. In this distance not one acre
of uncultivated land was to be seen,
while the cotton and corn fields were
perfectly free of grass.
Farmers are well up with work and
more contented than ever.
There is little, if any increase in the
cotton acreage in Sumter this year.
iSumter is now as much a grain-produc
ing county as it was an all-cotton
county <a few years ago, and the divis
ion this year as between grain and
cotton is well nigh even.
Diversification is the watchword, too.
in this new march of progress, and
bay, cane, potatoes and the smarter
crops are given special attention. Ev
ery 'Sumter county farmer is fast
learning to live wholly at home.
The cool weather of the past week
has done no material damage to the
cotton crop, as anticipated, and with
continued favorable seasons a record
crop seems assured. Planting is com
pleted and stands are excellent. iAs a
rule, many farmers are almost through
■ chopping, and only sunshine and show
ers are needed now to insure a yield of
35,000 bales in Sumter.
This is indeed the banner county
and the garden of Southwest Georgia.
In other counties contigious—notably
Lee, Schley, Macon, Webster and Crisp
conditions are as good as could be de-j
sired or expected. Crops in all sec-j
tions are excellent, and the prospect'
the finest ever known at the end of
April.
