We can by right thinking, right of Christ was foolishness unto man. And we experience the same thing the world today, especially those who are considered wise and earned in this world refuse to accept the gospel of Christ as the Son of God who came into thi" world to save man by dying lor nlm They, In their foolishness claim that no intelligent man can believe this.

They tell us to preach something modern in the church. preach culture, science, political and social reform. But, my friends, though there be many, yea most men denying and refusing the gospel of Christ, St. Paul testified by inspiration of the Holy Ghost, that of all truths there none with so firm a foundation as "Christ Jesus Is come into this world to save sinners. No matter how the mighty wise of this world may attack the gospel they can never exterminate It that gospel of Christ is a sure foundation and will remain so.

And why is this such a certain fact? Bccauss It IB not a man-made doctrine, but a divine doctrine. All human wisdom is founded either on the testimony of other men or on one's own observation. We know that what others have testified and what we ourselvcG have observed or experienced. But In this connection we also know from experience that those so-called facts which other men bring us do not always remain facts, but erred We are thing Is entirely that they have fooled.

"This Is a a i laying, and worthy of all accei.ta- tlmt Chrisl Jesus came Into the world In save sinners, of whom 1 nm chief," The words of our te.xt art- taken from the first epistle of St. Paul to Timothy. Timothy was pnntor nt the conprcRatlon at Enhe.sus.

thr Paul wrote to Tlmnlhy hp tells Timothy and all Christian ministers what ed of nnd what they MtpPCt- appenrs lo us at our first glance Many things which are considered truth today arc a laughable fallacy tomorrow. Many Iheorles have been propounded hy man and have beer considered un unallcrnble fact nnt suddenly they worn discoverci lo be foolishness. And what ler rlble errors man often mokes Ills own knovrlcdpc. 1 me merely make mention of the evolution theory which even today lnude.d bv many.

And so uncertain, my friends. Is all hu man experience and observation. Mow much different are Ihosi hinRB which perlnin to the doc rlnes of Ihc divine Word nnd cially lo the Iruth. "Christ Jesus came into the world to save ners." This truth did not sprou 1 from a knowledge and obser vatlon, but it Is a divine testimony God said it. This doctrine is found ed on God's testimony in the Bible in the entire Scriptures of Ihe Oli and New Teslnmcnt.

God testifies again and again that his Son would come into the world and came Int the world as the Savior of rinfu mankind. And God can not lie God does not err. "God is nol man, Ihat lie should lie; neither th Son of man, thai he should repent hath lie said, and shall 'he not It or he spoken, and shall nol make It good?" (Numbers xxli 1E.) May every thing, ail hums knowledge and --viadom collapse, th; remains, for It is God's Won And allhough all other doclrinc of ihe Word of God arc unalterabl truth, especially Is the doctrine reconciliations of Christ trull for Is Ihe center of all other doc irincs.

James' Methodist Sunday school will be held soon, and the First Lutheran school will have the equivalent of a rally day next Sunday, which is to be educational Sunday for the entire church. At the Lutheran Church the three Luther leagues will take part in the evening service next Sunday. The Westminster Presbyterian Sunday school is also making plans for a rally day, to be held Oct. 5, and at 1 o'clock Wednesday afternoon thoee who are to take part in the program will meet to prepare.

He declared that this was not a dead issue in Oalveston, and he referred specifically to the Open Forum, as "what is about to he imposed on Galvcston under the guise of education and free speech." "This is a land of free speech, nnd I would not hava it otherwise." Rev. Fickctt declared in his sermon.
