-.1 tari l), we ask oursch'cs the question, "Is it possible fo r blood to speak ?" Y C5, all blood speaks. \ Vhen my hrother was shot on f-lan(\cfS f-icld at eleven o'clock at night and the doc­tors tol d him that he could not live more than five hours. he asked the male nurses to bring him a clean, white handkerchief. H e put that clean hand­kerchief over his blooc1~' lungs until it was drenched with his own l(fc blood and then he asked his aitcndant io send it to my mother, telling her that his last thOllg-hts on earth were of her. "':hen that handkerchief was recei\'ed by my dear mother do you not think that the blood upon it spoke to her. alike of both the horrors of \var and of the last loving thoughts of my dear brother?

The blood o f Abel spoke. Cain was the fIrst murderer, and the blood of hi s \·ictim spoke unto God. A ft er Cain had co11lmitted his awful deed God asked him, "\"!here is Ahel. thy broth­er?" He made an excuse in answer, but God said, "The voice o f thy broth­er's blood crielh 111110 Me from the ground." But we read in our text of a blood that speaketh better things than the blood of Abel. Abel' s blood cried Ollt. "Justice!" But the blood of Jesus Christ, that blood that speaketh better things than the blood of Abel, cries, "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do." That Blood cries for mercy. Let us study and see some of these better things which the blood o f Christ speaks of on our be­half.

T ire Blood speaks cleansi1lg. In Rev. 1 :5 we read, "Unto Him that loved

Otto J. Klinh

tiS, and washed liS f r0111 our sins in )Jis own blood." There is only one thing" that will wash us from our sins and that is the blood of the Lamb of God. \Vhel1 T was a pastor in the CiLY of Des Moines, Iowa. a young stu­dent from the Univer:-;it\" of Iowa came to me and said. "I ( yOI1 would not preach so much about the blood of J ('SIIS and t hc bloody cro~", and this blood sal vation, and would teach Jesus to be our model. Oll r philosopher, our teacher, and ou r leader, you would ha"\"c more success and morc people would follow you."

I asked him if he would fol\O\\I the Lord Jesus Christ wherever He led, and he said he would. I pointrd him to I John 3:.5. "And \'e know that lie was ;nanifested to take away our sins; and in Him is no sin." I asked him, "Do you accept Jesus Chri5l as your leader into a sinless past? \Vil\ you say before an intelligent awlirnce that vou havc never sinned ?" Of course, he had to admit that his past was not sin less. So T told him that he didn't need J esus Christ to be His teacher, or model, or philosopher, but he need­ed Jesus Christ to be His Saviour from sin.

\Ve are all by nature sinners and ha\'c come short of the glory of God, and God would not have provided a washing if we had not needed it. \ Vhen a woman docs her washing she does not take the clean linen and clean pil­low cases and wash them. She takes the dirty ones, puts them into the wash tub and g ives them a thorough cleans­ing. Opcn your l3ibles at Romans 3: 10-18 and you will see that humanity does indeed need a washing f rom its sins.

In 1 John 1 :7 we read that "If we walk in the lig-ht as He is in the light , we have fellowship one with another,

and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son c1canst.,th us from all sin." \\'e are not cleansed by confession, or by go­ing- to mass, but by till' hlood of Jesus Christ. The word "fellowship" that we n'ad here means a good deal. I like to have fellowship with the ~aints of God; but the hlood of Jesus Christ will g-i\"l~ us fellowship with the Fa.­ther, and with His Son, Jesu ... Chri~t. This word "fellowship" nH::ms fri('nd­ship, companionship, partnership, and it is a wOl1(krful thing to han p .. ,rt­nership with God the Father, and God the SOli, and God the Ii oly Ghost hv the preciolls blood of Jesus Clnist. J\s we walk in lhe light of God's holy \Vord we can enjoy this gloriolls fel­lowship, and moment by moment en­joy thi s marvelous c1t:ansing the cleansing of the blood of Jesus Christ.

The Blood straks iltstijicalio,t from sill. In Romans 5 we read of "heing now justified by lIis hlood. ·' \\'hat docs justification mean ? In \\'ebstcr's Dictionary justification IIIcans to he made innocent. By the blood of J('sus Christ we a re made innoccllt in the sight of God, as innocent as Adam and Eve wcre before the fall.

Do you rcmember the case o f Cap­ta in Drey fu s who was accused by the French govcrnment of having sold the plans of fortifications to the Germans. Dreyfus protested his innocence, but the French government found him guilty and sentenced him to Ii fe im­prisonment on Black Devil's Island. After a few years the French govern­ment became uneasy and sent a dele­gation to Dreyfus asking him to come back to France. Dreyfus answered, "T am an innocent mall and hav~ done nothing against my count;'y and I de­mand complete j ustice." There was a good deal of sentiment in France. Thc

Ally prcaching that makes provision for the flesh, or any excuse for mani­festations of I..'vil, is weak preaching. [ t lacks the \'ital heart th rob of Cal­vary.

Sin, the natl1rc of evil, is the damn­ing power of the world, and to rid re­deemed Illan from its thraldom is the purpose of the gospel. Otherwise what means the scriptu re, " For he hath made l lim to be sin fo r us, who knew no sin; that we !lli~ht he made the l'ig-htcotlsIH'SS 0 f God in 11 im ?" IT ere Christ has become, in His substitution­al wo rk, what we were in our sin ful statr, that w(; might be 1l1;1(\r. in I [is rc<i('llIptinn. what H e is in His holi­ness. "T hat we no longer should live the rest of QUI' time in the flesh to th(' lusts of lll(·ll. hut to the \\'i ll of God."

Sin is all old thillg-. 1t C;1me through the f;111 of I h~ original cr{'ation. Tt canll'. Ilot from God, but from Satan. Freedom from sin comes through the ncw creation. It is of (;0(1. through faith in ellri"t Jr"us. "T herefore if any Illall h(' in Chr ist. he is a new cr{'atur{'; old things arc passed away; hehold. all thin.l!s are hecome ncw. An el all things arc of God, who hath r(,COI1-ciled lIS unto hilllself hv Jeslls Chris t " This verse is. to m('. NIt' of the stron£::­cst in the Bible against the teachiTlg that sin must he endured hy the be­lieve r. The redecmed man is a new creation . T he old th ings have passed away al.1(1 all th ings a re become new, and all IS of God.

There arc th ree elements o f vital im­portance to one who seeks deli .... erance f rom the po\\'er o f sin. T hey a re, the k llo'w{cdgL' of Christ as dcli'4.'erer, the appreciatioll of the gracc of God , the challll e! through 'wll ich dcliverance f107(ls, alld Ihe appropriat io ll of f aith, the mea li S 'lvhcrrby deliverU1lce reaches tht' s('e/.·jug hearl.

The knowledge that is necessary IS

not great human learning. It is sim­ply, "Knowing this, that our old man is (R. V. was) crucified with !lim, that the body of sin might be de­stroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin." lIere we learn that our old man, the nature of evil, \vas cru­cified with Christ. This provision was made that not the fruit of sin only, but also the body, the very nature of evil , which has permeated our being, might be destroyed. This destruction of evil Illay be as real to a h{'lien'r as the destruction of cancer might be to a body healed f 1'0111 its plague.

The natu re of evil came with liS in our natural birth, and as a tyrann ical mons ter has lashed us with many a lash. Our poor hearts have been torn, our characters have been defiled and degraded, and ofT ended conscience has clamored for righteousness in our lives, un lil ou r whole being has be­come awakened to our terrihle condi­tion. IIow o ften have we been forced to cry, "0 wretched man that T am ! who shall deliver me from the boely of this death ?, Thank God e1eli\'er­ance has come "through J estl s Chr ist our Lord."

\Vhat have you done with your old man, the nature of evil ill your life? Arc you allowing it to have mastery over you? YOII need not li\'e in hond­age to its power another hour . \Vhen Jesus Christ died upon the cross. ] rc not only made prO\'ision fo r the par­don ing of your sins. I Ie made also full provision fo r your deliverancc from the power which made you to do wrong. "Behold. the Lord's hand is not shortened, that it cannot s<1\·e." That means that God is abunda nLi y able to deliver . "Sill shall 1\'OT have dominion over you." However power­fu l it might have become. a Gre;l ter than it has inter \'cned in you r bellal f, and when the hand o f God takes hold , sin loses its power.

Many works of the fl esh, our fallen nature, a re ment ioned in the scrip­tures, a number o f which a re named in Galatians the fif th chapter. All such works of the fl esh a rc the prorillct o f the one tree, sin, the old man, or the na­ture o f evil with which we are born. I s Christian freedom to be found in t ry-

living under the law. ] Ie who spends his time trying to o\'crcome the fruits of e\'il, without dealing with the power that produces the fruits, is doomed to bitter disappointment. Paul has clearly described one trying to at­tain righteousness in that way. "For I delight in the law of God after the inward man; but I sec another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into cap­tivity to the law of sin which is in my members."

Freedom from sin comes, not from trying to break off ce rtain branches of sinning. \Ve arc to recognize that the entire blight, root and branch, was tak­en to the cross of Ch rist and nai led the re. Our "old man," our old na tme 'Was crucified at Calvary. T his is the gospel. Bel ieve it .

\"hen knowledge has taught us that deliverance from sin is possible, and wc sec that such del iverance is only through the cross o f Christ, Our next step becomes appropriat ing fait h. " Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to bc DEAD INDEED unto sin . but ali\'e unto God through Jes lls Chr ist our Lord." F aith mus t reckon before feelings come. Do not reckon that you are dead to some branch of sin. Our concern is not with "branche<;;," or par­ticular sins only. Our reckon ing is to be that we arc dead to the entire tree of sin, root and branch-"dead TN­DEED unto si n."

But suppose temptation to evil comes. Faith is to reckon just the same. "T he blood of Jeslls Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. " The heauty of Christian deliverance is, not that it frees the believer f!'Om tempta­tiOIl , but that simple faith keeps through temptation. T he lime when one feels most t ried is the time when one needs to reckon most firmly . The heavy winds may blow abou t the heads o f the wav ing grass, but its rootage holds it steady in its proper place in the soil. T emptations may whis tle abollt the believer 's form, bllt fa ith says, "I shall not be moved ." Rooted and grounded in Christ , the Christian's fa ith can weather the fie rcest storm.

<y{ow 9 £Received the fl3aptism By H. C. Ball

T was converted in a Baptist meet­ing when fourteen years ot age. Soon I got into Christian service, leading prayer services. I became Sunday School Secretary, Church Secretary, and J also started services for the l-.lcx­iean people. I had joined the 11cthod­ist Church and was vcry content with my church relationship.

11)' attention was first called to the deeper things of God by an elderly Methodist preacher that visited our little village of Ricardo, Texas. This was Brother Harris-I canllot r('mem­ber his first name. His preaching was full of the power of God. He told llS of the wonderful way the Lord filled him with IIi s Spirit, calling it Hthe second blessing." Naturally he had confused Sanct ification with the Baptism in the Spirit. ~Jany of us were deeply moved and felt our need of the Baptism in the Spirit, but although he made sev· eral altar calls, inviting the Christians to seek the Lord for His fullness, for some reason none of us had enough courage to accept his invitation. But f rom that time on 1 was more or less interested in the subject of the Baptism in the Spirit, making it a subject of special study, and e"en preaching about it at different times.

Several years later, when the most of the ). [ethodists had mowd away from our little village, and our Eng­li sh Sunday School was apparently about to go on the rocks, the I.ord sent into our community a family that knew ahout Pentecost, that had been seekers, yet had not r«cei"cd the Baptism up to that time. The mother of this cer­tain family , upon hearing- that I was about to discontinue the English ser­vire's and devote all Ill\· timc to the Spanish work, visited 111e, urg-ing me to continue and promising to help me. \\'ith the new encouragement Ire· solved to give the English work another chance to live. This sistcr took a class in the Sunday School and became a very active worker. In convcrsations with her and her famih', 1 was told of the Pc-Iltecostal outp0tll:ing of the Holy Spirit in these modern times. ).[y hunger for the experic-nce increased. while at the same time there was re­bellion within l11e, for no other reason that I knew than this experience was apart from thc t\[cthodist church.

I II due season the Lord sent his messengers to a ncar-by city. Divine providence surely planned the whole th ing. I was attending High Schoo~ in K ingsville and would eat my nOOI1-

day mcal or lunch in a clTtain Illc5quite gro,·e. One noon 1 founel a kilt had hccl1 pitched just where I alwa~·s ale my lunch. I picked out a new place, not far from the lent. ~\ftcr having finished Illy IUllch, 1 would drop into the sen-ices for a few minutes. as these services did not always clost.' hv noon. 1 was much impressed with wllat little 1 h<:ard.

Shortly the Lord bCg'an to do things in Kingsville. :\{any of my friends wcre receiving the Baptism of the Spirit. \\,hile I had always heen hun· gry for more of God, something in me got stirred up, and 1 got anlagon· istic. This only lasted a few days, and it gan way to a del'p feeling of my need. I searched the Scriptures. \\-hat finally COIn-illced me that this wonder· ful present day out-pouring of the Holy Spirit is really from God was John 16:14. It reads thus: "He shall glorify me: for he shall receiYC of minc, and shall shew it unto you." The way these people glorified th(' Lord com'inced me it ·was the working of the lI oly Spirit. I had been engaged in prayer meetings for o\'er four years, r knew that often it had been hard to get the Christians to testify for their f!.Iaster, but in these Illedin.l!"s nll'n and women, old and YOllng'. would give such ringing testimonil's. all glorifying the Christ that had ~a\"l'(1 thelll and filkd them with His Spirit.

T began to go to the altar with the rest. The first nig-ht T !:l.rried until pa~t midnight, fulh- (·xl)(·ctil1.1.; to re­ceive. htlt did not. Three Wt'(.'ks pa~scd, allel while T sOl1ght the I.onl in cach ~cn·icc. and al~o in a grow of tree" on our lillie ranch, I had not rrceiycd the coveted experience. E:l.ch day T found myself yielding a lillk ll10re to the Lord, and myoid opinions and religiolls idc:l.s wcre also going. Fin· ally l11y last hindrance was plarcd he­hind. I had been very staunch for sprinkling as the Bihle method of Rap· !iSIll, a~d I was strongly opposed to Immersion.

On the fifth of Xovcmhcr I yielded all to the Lord, myself, my ide'as, my plans, my all; and the next day, the sixth of November, 1914, the blessed H oly Comforler callle in in Pentecostal fulness. I only knew ITe had cOl11e. I knew I loved the Lord better tha.n ever before and that I loved Ilis people better. T knew I wanted to preach and testify with a greater zeal than ever before. But I was disappointed. for I was not conscious that I had

Blessed Escape rn the recently published biography

of Cllil1ncss of H Ollan , by Mrs. H ow­ard Taylor, thcre is told the story of a gracious escape fro~ll the cll1tcl~cs ~f th(' evil onc that GUl11l1l'SS had 111 hiS

college days. 11 is biog-rapher writ.es, "Among th(' undergraduates at CalUs was one who had gone pretty far as a spiritualist and was unclCr!'ilOOd to be a medium. At his invitation several Callis men met one afternoon for a 5('aI1C(', including Whitfidd Guinness anrl his friend D. 1\1. Panton. One of the grollp was an agnost ic and another an Anglo-Catholic. For about twenty minutes nothing particular happened. The tahle round which they were scat­ed gave no response to the questions put to it, and they were gl·tting dis­tinctly tired. 'Just two minutes more,' urged the medium. The tahle heg'an to move a little, round and round, then rolled right over across the room. Aroused to interest , the group began to ply it wi th questions- two bangs on the floor meant 'no,' and three 'yes.' One asked whether his brother had passed his exal1l inati on.~. The table gave the right answer. Another want­ed to know the number of books on the bookshel f over which a curtain was hanging; it was not the medium's roolll. The table said forty-nine, which proved to be exactly right ."

• • • Putting the Test

Mrs. Taylor continues, "For almost an hour they went on showering ques­tions, all o f which were answered cor­rectly. Greatly intrigued, they now came to more seriolls matters, and asked how long it would take for them to become initiated- how many seances they would have to attend be­fore they could be considered med­iums? An arrow drawn Oil paper was placed on the table, pointing to each in turn, and the answer was rapped out: 'Panton, 15; Guinness, 13 or 14; the Anglo-Catholic, 5; the agnostic, 1.' A strange consciollsness of some

unSCl'n power was stealing over them . Guinness hegan to be uneasy. Then he r('nll'mhercd the passage, 1 J ohn 4 :1-3, 'Try the spirits, whether thcv arc of God .... Every spirit whirh confcssclh that Jesus Ch ri st is come in the ncsh is of God; and every spirit which confesseth not Jesus is not of God.' Quietly he put the qucstion. '1 ras JeslIs Christ , the Son of God, come in the flesh ?' The lahle rose right up, about two feet high, and crashed out an unmistakahle '\"" 0 l' That broke lip the atmosphere, and for Guinness it put an end to tampering with Spirituali sm."

• • • Rejecting rhe Atonement

Before the writer was horn again he accepted an il1\'itation one time to go to a spiritualistic seance, and after th(' seance hac! a long chat with the medium. The medium said to him, " T used to be a good Baptist, hut when I became a Spiritualist the first thing that had to go was the doctrine of the atonement." That was an illuminat­ing confession-that when anyone apostatizes to Spiritualism the first thing he has to throw awav is the aton­ing blood of Christ! The statcmcnt of this medium is confirmed by the writing of many Spiritualists. Sir Arthur Conan Dovle in his book on Spirituali~ll1, entitled The Vi/al lVay, deprecates the human race's "losing it­self in vain dreams of vicariollS sacri­fices and imaginary falls," rejecting alike the Cross of Calvary and that which made the Cross necessary. In another Spiritualist publ ication , .Mrd­ium ami Da:ybreak, it is written, "The blasphemous doctrine of atonement at one sweep (will) have to move out of the way." In the book Principles of Nature, written by a Spir itualist, we -:ead, "Sin in the common accept­ance of the term does not really exist. The innate divineness of the spirit prohibits the possibility of spiritual wickedness. . . , Your 'atonement' is the very climax of a deranged imagin-

ation. " The cross of Calvarv and the atoning blood shed thereon is the only means of the remission of sins, and all who reject the blood of atonement will ha\'e to die in their sins. "\\'ithout the shedding of blood is no remission." JJ eb, 9:22,

• • • Rejecring Christ's Spirir

It is good to train children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. I sha ll always be grateful for the Christ ian training that made me. even though just an inquis itiye youngster inquirin~ into the occult, reject what the Spiritualists taught. I was told that if T would become passive "a good spi rit" would come upon me and con­trol me. I said t o the medium, "There is only one Spi rit that I want to con­trol my life and that is the Spi rit of Christ," T remembered that the Old Book declared, "If any man have not the Spirit of Christ he is none of His." The medium argued with me for half an hour. declaring that the Spirit of Christ "had passed on so far" that I could not now receive Him. Thank God, I soon pro\'ed that statement a lie. A few months later I was a peni­tent at the fcet of the Lord Jesus, seeking forgiveness of sins. T received } I illl and knew that T was] I is. I knew that the atoning blood the Spi ritualists reject was applied to my heart , and I became a new creature in Christ Jesus. Not very long afterwards the same blessed Holy Spirit that came upon th" Lord Jesus at Jordan's banks c.·lIne upon me, and I know He came, for H e manifested Himself in the same way He did to the waiting disciples on the Day of Pentecost, causing me to speak in tongues as the Spirit Himself gave utterance.

• • • Trying rhe Spirirs

I am very g rateful that T received the Baptism in a church where they were obedient to the word, "Beloved, believe not cvery spirit but try the spirits whether they are of God." 1 John 4:1. I was not only tested then but many times since I have tested the Spirit within, always with the same re­sponse that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh (1 John 4:2), and that Jesus is

the Lord. 1 Cor. 12 :3. In the early da\'s of Pentecost in the assemblies with which I was in touch, we never failed to put the test to each one who was newly filled with the Spirit. As Brother Gee states, "It is not necessary to be spectacular concerning putting these tesls," Again and again we hayc found that as we quietly pray the new\y filled onc will of himself ac­knowledge that Jesus is the Lord. \\'c cannot too strong-I), emphasize the truth gi"cn to liS in 1 John 4:1-3, and I am glad that so many' of our Pente­costal ll'adcrs rccognil.c the import­ance of this trllth.

A nd then He will answer, "I never knew you; depart from Me, ye that work iniquity."

• • • Why God Slew Saul

There was no repentance in Saul for the evil which he had done, no humbling of himself and making con­fession for the great sin of slay ing the priests at Nob. \Ve find him at last reso rting to a spiritualist medium, the witch of Endor, and we are gi\'en a remarkable picture of what took place when he went to see that wom­an. God had clearly stated that those who consulted with famil iar spirits were an abomination unto Him. And the lloly Spirit has given us a very clear statement concerning Saul' s end.

The Lord \"ery clearly spoke to II is people of old, "Thcre shall not be found among you .. . a consulter with familiar spirits ... for all that do these things arc an abomination unto the Lord." Again we are warned in I saiah 8: 19, 20, "A nd they shall say unto YOtl, Seek unto them that have famili ar spirits, and unto wizards that peep and mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?

A ftN five )'car~ of mini!-.try in the Slate of Illinois we reached a. crisis in our Illini!-itry in connectioll with the denomination whirh wt: W('H' st'rving. Thert: was a split and w(' felt we could not take part in the fight, as G<xi had c'l.lled us to ]1r<'<lch the gospt:l and not to fig-ht. 1\1 that time Wt' first heard the tl'aching" of the "Fourfold GO!-ipcl," and it just s('cll!t:cI to suit om tried and weary I u:art~. \\'e wcre ddig-Ined with the t('achillg" and with the course which was pursued in bringing' the truth to us, and we took our stand not only for CIlI'ist OI(T .)·uviour mlft SWlctijirr, but fM Chri~t our Ilcaler, :ll1d Coming KIllg" a!-i w{'11. At that lime when we t.....1.lJle into tlw truth of Divine Ilealing my children w('rc small, and we took the Lord Jesus as Ollr family physician, My hahies had all the diseascs to which childrcll are heIr, bllt we took them to ./csus.),lany were ti l(' lcsti ngs but God did not fail us.

My own first htaling- was from lXli­son ivy, bUI God heard 111)' cries and deiJv('r{'d me. T lwn a few days later came another l('st, and 1 had a severc attack of erysipl'las which started in Illy IlL'Ck and w{'nt i1lto JIly head an extremely <Iang"crou!-i form which is us­ually fatal. I refllM'd ('\"Cry proffered remedy for 1 lon~ed 10 have a real tes­tin!ony for God. h W;J!-i at a time whtn 1 was preparing to attcnd a Olristian ;l lld I\1issionary Alliance Convent ion at Beulab Park, Ohio. ,\ party of seven were accompanying- liS and were depending 011 my going, My condition was so serums that had 1 not tr usted the Lord 1 should have bl:cn in bed instead of taking the tra in for Cleve­land . H owever 1 leaned hard on my Lord a nd pursued my journey, arriv­ing in the evening, suffering intensely. But I j list kept praising and adoring my Lord.

I arose from my straw bunk in the tent and walked the floor crying to the Lord. In tJle morning I called my hushand and said, " I am in desperate need. Something must be done. I must have deliverance. Please go and call the elders so that I may be anoin­ted." It was ,"ery early in the morn­ing.

In the meantin~e a dear saint o f God

came into the tent and said, "God sent me to pray for you. You must be ddivcred," I said "Yes, Sister, 1 have just sent for the elders.'~ She replied, "But God sent me," \Ve dropped to our knees and she laid hcr hands on me and prayed the prayer of faith. The fever instantly left llIe, amI we were in the very presence of Jesus, Yet 1 felt that God was holding me to ohey the Scriptures and be anointeu, so we walked out to the Tahernacle. where the elders were, and I was an­ointed, .'\11 the swelling Idt and with­in twenty four hours my face was like a new born babe's, completely healed. All glo ry to Jesus!

At another time in an explosion in my home in the kitchen gas stove, 1 was terrihly burtled, 11)' hair was all aflame and my face burtled. There were eight la rge blisters 011 my face and w-y ear was in a blister, my hands and arms were burned to the elbows. hilt by that ti me the mighty power of P entecost had come, and 1 was so fil led with the Spi rit that J dOIl't remcmber anything ahout the suffe rings whatever. 1 was caught up in the Spir it and with tears running down my checks and praises weHing up in my heart for God's protection from hl'ing hUl"I1ed to death, walking the floor with my hands uplifted , I just worshipped and adored my Lord.

~ly precious S ister Hanna (s ince gOlle to glory ) came and pled with me to let her do something for me but I refused, She sa id, "\Von't you call the sai nts to pray for you?" I said , "1 can, but I know God has touched Il"!e." H owever, I called lip my other sister (~1rs. Kamerer, ) by tdephone, and when she got to the door ~he said: "1 know God has heen ahead 0 [ l11e."' Together we dropped 0 11 our knces, just worshipping and adori ng the Lord, Before the week was over every bl is­ter had gone and the skin had dried up and was peeling oIT Illy face. The sores all healed and by the next Sun­day I was out to church with sca rcely any marks of the terri ble burns left. God marvellously and miraculoltsly "quenched the violence of fire." Heb. 11 :3~.

During those early years we proved God in marvelous ways. l\ ly husband was suffering intensely from hernia, and the much traveling over rough roads greatly intensified the suffering so that he was at times unable to stand erect in the pulpit. H e came home one Sunday after three se rvices and

clroPI)(:d on 11I~ km'c,:s to ask God to heal him. \\'e had little light on heal­ing- at that time. bUI he told the Lord that if Be did not 11(:al him he could not preach 11is go~pd. lie went to bcd, forgdting ahout his prayer, arose next day and went about his work. \\"hile tip in the haymow gl.'tting hay for the horse suddenly he thought about his physical trouble and God said, "You arc healed." He leaped (or joy in the haymow and from that hour never knew any more of the trouble. He was perfectly healed (rom hernia of seventeen or more years' standing.

11any times during those forty-four years we could say concerning th(, af­flictions that came to our home: "God healed us all of all oltr disrases." \\'e had flu, pneumonia. all sorts of throat trouble. and everything that comes in­to family life in the way of sickness, disease and weakness seemed to tOllch our family; but wr cried Ullto the Lord, "who healeth all thy diseac;es," and He met us. Ahout five yc.,rs ago. while in Kansas City, 1 was very ill with pneumonia. 1 lacked every opportuni ty for quiet. as the dilapidated hotel at which we were staying was located at the junction of s treet cars ;lnd fi re engine hOllses, and where thc line men were coming in at a ll hours o f the night. II ere it was that I was placed during a Bible conference for my stay in Kansas City. I became too ill to be moved to better quarters. so we were forced to remain until God ra ised me up. I had a temperature for many days o f one hundred and four a nd a half degrees, and in the natural, the re was very litt le hope o f recovery. "Rul God." "Bu/ PraycT/' and by His st r ipes I was hea led .

I refused all medical aid for God gave me the faith to rest on His faith­f ulness. God raised 111e Out of this sick bed on the last Sunday morning o( the conference. I went directly to church where I remained for the two services and witnessed to the mighty healing power 0 [ J esus Chri st. l3ef ore midnight I started on the journey to Springfield, 1\10. and then on to Cleve­land, Ohio, all the way proving the presence and power of J esus. O h, what a great Physician is Illy Lord! In the natural the doctors would have said I was a fool, but trusting Jesus, I was sa fe in His keeping. and there was no return of the trouble, .\11 glory to my adorable Lord!

Many, many times in my life I have looked death in the face, but I called on my God who al ways delivered me -not always instantly, not a lways with­out trial of faith, but truly lIe always manifested His presence in giving de­liverance.

I believe the Lord would have me

J Ie operated took three quarts of pus frOlIi his side. and put three tubes into ilis side for drainage purposes. On a Sun­day afternoon the doctor said he could do positively nothing more for my son, and gave him thirty six hours to li\'c. He was having One sinking spell after a nother. l\ext morning his father and J went to his room to say "Good morn­ing," and he told us what the doctor had said and added, "\Vhy doesn't God heal me ?"

J then turned to him and said, "Son, man's extremity is God's opportunity. You have been depending on the doc­lor, as ),011 were su(fering too greatly to give hilT! up. Now he has git'ell you up, and it is the Lord or death!"

\Vith that there came to all of our hearts a desperate taking hold of God, and we dropped to our knecs, confess­ing our faults OIlC to another, aSking God to forgive us and give ItS more patience and (·ndurance. As we did this, there came an assurance of victory into our hearts and we arose from our knees. J list then the nurse came in­to the rOOI1l. and :said, "Mr. Kerr, if yotl take the Lord as your H eale!", you can get right out of this bed."

Faith sprang up in the heart of my dcar son, he smiled and made an effort to arise. lIe had not been able to hold up his head without fainting for fi ve weeks, hut with our assistance he got on his bathrobe and we helped him into a Morris chair. There he sat all through that day singing and prais­ing God with a loud \"oice. \Vhen e\'en­ing carne 1 said, "Don't you think you had better retire ?" lIe turned and said, di'vl olher, where is yOllr faith?" 1 felt rebuked and told him just to obey God. However, shortly after, he said he believed he would retire.

11e fell asleep but awoke after a few hours, with intense pain. V\'e prayed earnestly for him. God answered and he fell asleep again. Then he awoke and told us that the Lord had said "'[ k • a·e up your bed and walk." He made an e(fort to walk, and came walk­ing through the house on the ann of the nurse, praising the Lord in a loud voice. Getting back to the bed he fell asleep again, only to waken with terrific pain. Again God spoke saying, "1 am the Lord that healeth thee." He arose and th is time he went through the house al~ne, praising God at the top of his vOice.

\\'ithin tw{'\\"e days he made a trip of o\·er one hundred milcs to Findla\", Ohio in the cold, storm\' ~larch \n:atfl­er. There he witlless~d ill the Bible class of the ~rethodist dlUrch. of which he had been a memhcr, telling what God had done for him. The people there had been waiting for news of his death, ami all rcalized that God had indeed performed a miracle as he told them of the mighty power of God which had brought him out of the jaws of death. He returned home and in three weeks from the tillle he took the Lord as his Healer he was back in the on-icc where he worked as an a<"count­ant. Thc company for which he worked did a 1110st unllsual thing; the)' pa id him for the three months he was ill. This too was God's doing.

On this particular night only the Persian priest squatted before a huge Urdu Bihle, while the little old white lady, with one or two more Eu­ropean friends , turned his medita­tions f r0111 passage to passage in the g-reat volume; for they did not proper­ly know his Urdu, and he did not properly know their English.

A ftcr an hour or more in which the grand old Book alone had spoken God's message to hi s hungry soul, with

hroken English and gesticulations he gav(, tllt'lll to understand that he ac­('pted the Gospel as truth, but as a Persian priest he was not free to fol­iow Christ, and now on account of his age and up-hringing he could conceive oi no other means of livelihood. Then he buried his face in his arlllS and :.at on as though in despair.

The little Qld white lady prayed on eartH'"tly in the ~ih:nce of that night till ~ht, fl'l1 asleep In a heap on thc n( or.

Shortly after it had been considered ~afe for him to go about in the ordin­ary way, he was on the seashore when a sweetmeat seller began to coax him to buy, He hought some, the vendor went on his way, and was lost in the crowd il'r'.mediately. Ko sooner had our friend, the convert, begun to eat than he had the most agonizing pains. .\s he struggled back to the house of his whitf' friends-which was some distance away- his mind, gradually be­coming more dulled with pain, was groping out after a further experience of his Saviour and God; "If they shall drink any deadly thing it shall not hurt them!' \,yhere had he heard that? How could it be?o Could it apply to him? That vendor-yes, he thought his face was familiar-of course, one of his old associates had disguised himself for this purpose, But oh.

Our case is not the same as that oi Captain Dreyfus because we have heen guilty. But the penalty of our sin, the death penalty has been paid hy another, nell J eS llS Christ, and His blood was shed on our hehal f. Thi s blood purchased our justificat ion, and when we are cleansed by the Blood we become innocent as though we had nc\"Cr sinned" \Vhat does God do with vour sins? ] Ie will throw them behind l1is back into the sea of His fo rget fu l­ness, never to remember them against us forever. That is complete justifica­tion.

Thc blood of ieSlts Christ speaks llighncss 10 God, "But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ." Eph. 2:13, This cleansing and this fellowship with God, and this nearness, is purchased by the Blood and not re­ceived by education.

with its encouragements and discour~ agcmcnts. The I Jord has worked among our Christian boys, but we long to see the boys who come from oUbicle homcs get tOllched by the Spirit of God. There arc 95 boys enrolled in our ho:mling school, and 37 hoard at home, Illaking a total of 1.12 boys al­together.

Of the .17 hoys who hoard at home only two are Christians, so that it would Il1c;)n !iOlllcthing to our work jf the 35 should get saved. \Von't you pray fo r them?

There is another great need. 'Are have a hon-::e started for our boys, but the new building had to stop for lack of fllnds. The walls are partly up, and if we could only get a temporary roof, it would house about 60 more boys. 11allY arc applying to us, but we arc ohliged to turn them away for lack of room. 1t makes Ol1r hearts ache to ('ven think of tllming them away. for they may get saved and scaled with the J loly Spirit, and thus provide another star in the crown of the Lord Jesus.

gospel tn fforeign days a ftcr the cOll\'ersion of this fam­ily, God smote the people with the plague, and I think fire enn J)urned up some hOllses, but for some years no one thought so much about it al­though we did not have so much to do with them on aCCOllnt of the trouble. By that T mean that we did not hire the I>cople from. this village when there was work to be done. The fire awakened within liS afresh the consciousness that God sees and knows and rewards either good or evil as lIe se(;s fit. The whole village was burned to ashes in a very short time with the exception of the huts of the low ca<.,te people who w(:re friend!'> and relatives of the fam­ily that hecame Christian and ant.: soli­tary hut in the midst of the burning \'illage ,vhich belonged to a poor man. There was no wind at all outside of the village but in the village itself it just roared, 50 that in an hour all was gone. It was a very peculiar fire, hut we realizc that evcn though wc arc on the dcvil's territory, yet in a way God's hand is still mighty over all.

This is our school vacation, and although some of the ho)'s have gone to their homes, Qur girls have comc home from school so we are a large family anyway.

\Vc had the privilege of holding Sun­day services in the social hall of the "S. S.

Sentinel, the Chris­tiall Science ?I'[onitor and other publications of like character, for the use of the pas ~ sengers.

Surely we Pente­costal people have a message that should be in greater circula­tion. It is indeed a message of life, and life more abundant. If the prince of this world is so active through hi s messen­gers, how eager and zealous we ought to be in the service of the great Prince of peace and life !

Lois Shelton Praise God for thc hunger there is

in the hean s of the 1'alipo people, and praise Him tOo, fo r some native Chr is­tians who have real joy in carrying the gospel to their own people. Let me tell you about Matthew and Helen, who were saved some two years ago when 1\1iss Gollan and l\liss Doml11er­muth werc in this station. l{eccntiy Mauhew said: "1 live in heathen town when God save me. ;\ iter that, when the people drink and cat and dance and ha \'c good time, they come LO me and say, 'l\l atthe\\', how you no come with us?' But I tell them my heart change this time. l\othing live in Illy heart that make me want to go with them. Then they leave me alone and 1 Slay in my house and pray. \\'hen they make devil-medicine and make sacri­fice to devi l, they come and say 1 must go there too, but 1 110 agree and then they leave me alone. J\ fler while I come and build my house in Mission T OWIl, and thcn 1 don't want to go any place, 1 fear missionary will tell some God word and 1 110 hear. 1 say I can't cnr leave Mission, I will stay here all my li fe. \\'hen 1 think how tOWI1 people don 't know God, I th ink, ' \ Vell , myself, I be saved' and I no trouble fo r town people. But after while my heart begin t9 trouble ; I want to go other places and preach God word to the people. Now I see that when I go and preach to others, God bless me too, but when I no do anything but sit down he re in Mission and hear God word myself, my soul get dry and 1 no want to pray. Some­times when I go to preach, the people say, 'First time we hear about how

missionan- talk we think that onl\, he ll1i~siollar~'\ country fashion. and we be difTcrcnt. ~o\\' we Sl'e vou be our coulllry man. lll\t you have 'same fash~ ion like missionary this time. So you mu~t tell m all the thing'> that mis­sionary tell yon.' Xow I know for true that God wants us country people to carry the gospel to our own people."

Helen is a precious Christian. Some­times we hear her long- he fore day singing-. praying, cryin.~ out to God, and God speaks to I I is handmaiden sending- her here and there with the message of sah·ation. Two weeks a.t!o she told us God had said she must go to Bowewah, a town Ii \'c hours from us, where no one had ncr gone with the gospel, and the ncxt morning she. with four of my girls. stt out on the jungle trail 'with their messag-e from the King. The people eagerly received them, saying, " \Vc sce that missionaries and mission people go other towns hut the)' nevcr cOllie here. \\'e think they no care for us. but now we know you care for you bring uS God ,,,·ord." They bcggL'(1 for a long visit f rOI11 the messengers of the cross, and C\'cryone in the town wcnt to thc Il!eetings held while therc. II is "hungry time" now, and the people did not have food to give them. but gavc them a sh illing 1O bring to their missionary. A few months ago Helen and the girls went to Tcdica to preach, There thcy l'aw a \'Cry sick man who had gone to all the devil doctors in the country around, hut none could htlp him. They praycd for him, and a mOllth later wilen they again visitcd Tedica, they found the man every whit whole. lIe s.aid, .. , don't know where my sick go, hut it go somewhere whell you heg God," Now that town wdcoilles the gospel and say they will build a church house wh(,11 the missionar\' st'll'rts the place for it. .

Some of the towns are sending hammock men to carry us free so that we may go preach to them. The field is white unto har\'(,st.

K'KG'S BUSINESS URGENT Evangelists Louisc Costello, and Louise

M arshall write: "In an old-fashioned re­vival at Perrylown, N. C, which s tarted May 4, and co ntinued for 3 weeks, a good­ly number were saved . believers reccived the Pentecostal Baptism, and the sick were delivered from their afflictions. A church was organ ized with 23 charter members, and a Sunday school with 51, which is still growing. The people here have the land clcared and timber cut to build a church. Believing that 'the King's business requires hastc,' they were plan­ning to begin crecting the building at once, when one of the members, Brother N. L. Harden, was thrown frolll a log wagon and a weight of about 4000 pounds rolled over his left shou ld er . The phy­sician said he would not live 2 days, but in answer to prayer he is now recovering; the physician has acknowledged the hand of God in his case. Vve praise God for victory through the blood and arc deter­mined to press forward."

CHURCH IN DAXGI~R Evangelist Shelt \Vebstcr writes from

Farmington, X. Mex.: "In spite of the difficulties and oppositions of the enemy we are forging ahead with the precious gospel of our Lord. This is one of the most needy fields [ have e\'er visited. The nearest assembly is about 7S miles away; many arc hungry for God but the heralds oi the full go:>pcl are few.

wri tes: "\Vo.: came here about 3 months ago and finding the church without a pastor we at once began to preach the vVord 10 those who were hUllgry. T he ch urch as ked us 10 rema in ill cha rge of the work, and since that time every meet ­ing, night or day, has been one o f con­tinuous re vival. For 3 Sunday mornings God's blessing and power have been so wonderfully presen t tha t we could not minister the Word, but have bad to give attention to those who came seeking the Lord and the fullness of the Ho ly Ghost. One morning there were 8 saved, and in almos t every se rvice from 2 to 8 are re­deemed from s in or filled with the Spirit. 111 tbis time the chu rch has grown to J times its size; 73 have 'chosen the bet­ter part' and been wa shed in the blood divine, 2-i have received the experience of the first Pentecost, the Holy Ghost se nt down from heaven; 34 have received Christian bapti sm, 33 names have been added to our assembly roll, thc Sunday school mcmbcrship has grown from 35 to 107, and each Sunday night we have to turn away many for lack of room. The best part of all is we arc still growing."

GOD COMES TO RURAL DISTRICT Evangelist Arthur C Bond, writes frOIll

Rogers, Ark.: "I ~gan a meeting at Pine Creek schoolhouse, June 21. They had had no gatherings for religious worship there fo r years. Pcople at once became inter­ested and bought an organ for the place. They have been like sheep without a shep­herd and are thankfully receiving the Word of God. This is only one of the rural di s· tricts where r have held meetings. The work of God is going forward in many of these fields which were once but a dry and parch­ing desert. I plan to continue here for the summer."
