Gleaton Rev Inabinet and Rev Johnson as assis tants Bishop Mouzon gave the first of a series of messages on the Gospel of St Mark Mark said the bishop "was the traveling companion of St Peter" so the gospel before us Is rather the Gospel of Peter The bishop based his first study on the first chapter This chapter gives us a day In the life of Jesus "He went about doing good" Several points are here suggested irst there is a man of authority Sec ond: There Is a message of author ity Third: One who had authority over the evil spirits The authority of Jesus is direct He needs no creed or church councils to give au thority Turning to the beautiful flowers adorning the pulpit Bishop Mouzon said flowers need no external authority there they are look at Jesus was a busy worker He was bone of our bone and flesh of our flesh but he was more than that You can reduce Jesus to the stature of a man We cannot deny the super natural In him "Many of our theo logical Institutions are trylne to raie out all except the ordinary and the commonplace" Jesus was a man of prayer He arose a great while before day and went out Into a desert place pray This is the source of his power At the close of the bishop's great address tne conference arose and sang as only a body of Methodist preachers can sing the hymn "How firm a oun dation" Rev Herbert presented the report of the presiding elders nom
