Biggest Crowd Ever
An extra large crowd came
ut last night to hear Scottie,
tat phenominal preacher, deliver
:s sermon on "Haggling, Jaggl-
g, Squibbling, Squabbling,
rawfishing and Justification."
e took his text from Luke 10:19.
'here a young lawyer came to
}sus, tempting him, and asking
hat he should do to inherit
ernal life and that Jesus came
ck at him by asking him, know- j
g that he was acquainted with
e law, have readest them",
hat does the law and scripture
y? The young smart alec
swered and said "to love God
th all thy heart, soul, mind
d streng th, and thy neighbor
thyself." Jesus answered and
d "this do and thou shalt live."
rhis young man tried to justify
nself by asking "Who is my
ghbor?" He set a trap to
ch Jesus and got caught
it himself for he knew the law
1 had not obeyed it and tried
crawfish out of it like many of |
i folks. You try to justify
irselves by somebody else's
or your ignorance. You are
y a haggler and crawfish.
iy don't you meet the issue
are. Someone else doing
>ng does not justify you in
least.
cottie preached his sermon on
ification from a large chart
wing that man cannot justify
self before God. That Christ
the Holy Spirit, preacher,
st nor pope could justify a
i. That God, the Father, and
i only, could do it. That all
was against God and you
t get your pardon from the
b source as your condemna-
. That the doctrine of justifi-
>n is 1, by the grace of God,
edemption, 3, substitution,
tonement, 5, imputation, 6,
ition. He demonstrated his
sermon as he showed how God
had furnished His Son in our
place, that he might be just and
the justifier of all who would
take Jesus as their substitute and
Savior,
Scottie told the story of the
suffering of God in giving his
son and punishing our sin in his
body, and how Jesus took our
place and suffered the curse of
the law and tasted the second
death in our stead. It was a
most touching sermon and gave
the hearers a real motive for
loving God and Christ as they
had never done before.
At the close of the sermon
Scottie did the most phenominal
thing. He said "I divide you
into three classes: 1, The infidel
who does not believe the story; 2,
the ones that did believe it and
appreciated what God and Christ
had done for them and had ac-
cepted it and was sticking up for
them; 3, was the dirty, low down,
beastly, brutal, damnable scound-
rels, ungrateful robbers, thieves,
black hearted slackers, traitors
to right, cowards, who say the
story is true, and God gave and
Christ suffered for their sin in
their stead and they don't and
wont appreciate it, but will take
Christ's name in vain and run
with the bunch that is against
Christ.
The invitation was given when
Scottie said that if there was a
real man or woman that would
come clean before the world and
take Christ as their savior and
substitute to get right up and
come forward. The crowd was
as still as death and finally four
came and confessed Christ.
Scottie, to the surprise of all,
said good night, and the hundred
guilty sinners left with a deep
conviction of sin. Many flocked
to take Scottie by the hand and
to congratulate him on his ser-
mon and his fearless attack on
the slackers.
J. W. Tullis is quite sick with
pneumonia fever.
Mildred Long, the small grand-
daughter of B. F. Grigsby, was
quite sick yesterday, but is some
better today.
