POWDER SPRINGS GOSPEL TENT
e e
A large crowd gathered in the tent
Sunday night to hear Mr. Wilson on
“the subject of “Is Man Immortal?”
~ Among other things the spaker
_said “My purpose tonight is to an
swer some of the perplexing ques
tions about man, and in order to do
this intelligently 1 shall consider
man’s nature as follows: Man in
life, man in death, and man in the
yesurrection, and in doing so I shall
answer the following questions so
‘often asked:
“Where does man go Wwhen he
dies?” ’
“Does he go to heaven?” “Does
“he go to hell?”
~ “Does he go to purgatory or Para
dise?”
“Does he go anywhere?”
The Bible which we have been
studying in this tent for over a month
answers all of these questions, and if
it did not I would not undertake to
answer them, for my business in Pow
der Springs is to teach the Bible and
the Bible only, for it is the only safe
guide for a Christian.”
Mr. Wilson said further, “The
Psalmist David tells us that God
made man a little lower than the
angels, and Jesus says we shall be
equal with the angels if he lives in
obedience to God, and Moses tells
us that God made man out of dust,
and Job says he is mortal, (subject
to death,) and Paul says God alone
3s immortal, Ps. 8:4-6; Luke 20:35,36;
Gen. 2:7; Job 17:13; I. Tim. 1:17;
6:13-17. So we see from these Scrip
tures that man is mortal, subject to
death, and that God alone possesses
this nature.” |
Continuing the speaker said ‘“Paul
also tells us that all men lost their
Jives in Adam, and that eternal life
comes through Christ, and Ezekiel
says a man's soul dies also, and Sol
omon tells us a man doesn’t know any
_thing when he is dead, while David
_makes it plain that he does no think
ing while dead.” I.Cor. 15:22; Rom.
6:23; Ezek. 18:4; Ecel. 9:5; Ps.
146:34. “Then that most ancient of
- Bible writers, Job, tells us where
man spends the time from death until
he enters upon his final reward.”
Job 14:10-14; 17:13. “This place
.of waiting is the grave. In harmony
with the writers of the Bible our Sa
wior says the hour shall come that

all, both good and evil will be called
out of their waiting places or their
graves.” John 5:28; 1. Thess. 4:186.
To close his remarks Mr. Wilson
said, #From that man is not immor
tal, he ‘does not have a “never dying
soul,” but when he dies he is dead,
and remains so until Christ comes and
resurrects him from the grave, which
is the hope of the Christians in all
ages. God is not the author of the
doctrine of the immortality of man,
but the Devil is, and it is his first lie,
told to our mother Eve in the gar
den of Eden when he flatly contra
dicted God by saying “Thou shalt
not surely die.” Gen. 3:1-10.
The meetings will close next Sun
day night, Aug. 17, after which, Mr.
Wilson and his company of workers
go to the Annual Conference to be
held in Atlanta from Sept 1 to 7.
Powder Springs is stirred as she has
not been stirred before. It is not an
ancommon thing to see groups of
men and boys gathered on the street
corners discussing Bible subjects.
Many have said they have been great
ly benefitted by the meetings. It is
probable that Marietta will be fa
vored with a similar meeting later
in the fall if it is possible for Mr.
Wilson to find the time.

MAGNIFICENT GREENHOUSE
TOPS LARGEST HOTEL
In the very heart of America’s
largest city, opposite the largest rail
way station, there has just been
opened the most magnificent and
sumptuous of greenhouses, according
to the September Popular Magazine.
The ground at that poiht is of al
most incredible” value; but the new
greenhouse, to make its Yocation still
more peculiar, is more than 20 sto
ries above the ground—perched on
the roof of the Pennsylvania hotel,
which is, to use_the superlative once
more, the largest in the world. The
conservatory in the sky is, as a mat
ter of fact, a group of three huge
glass-inclosed halls, each a wonder in
itself.
Other extraordinary qualities
might be expected of such an unusual
greenhouse as this, and they are not
lacking. The feature first to strike
the eye is the great unsupported span
of glass-paneled roof, 55 feet from
side to side, The next effect that
startles the visitor is the apparent
absence of confining walls—the illu
sion of distance as the vision travels
on into green jungles. That is the
l(lec‘orator*s art, of course; the walls
are treated to produce just that ef
fect. And the illuminating engineer
has co-operated. Fairy butterflies
wies incandescent bodies reflect their
light downward from translucent
wings, veined and shaded in vivid sem
‘blance of life.
PANAMA CANAL AIR
DEFENSES BEING .
PLANNED BY ARMY
Air defenses for the Panama Canal
will be planned after the report of
a military board, now investigating
on the isthmus, has been received, ac
cording to an announcement in the
September Popular Magazine. In
structions given to the board indi
cate that the War Department in
tends to place several defensive aerial
units in the Canal Zone, besides four
balloon companies to assist the coast
artillery in adjusting fire. The num
ber of aerial units necessary and the
best sites for their stations will be
decided by the board, which also will
consider other questions relating to
the protection of the canal.
