subjoot of the sermon was
"Christ Our Mediators." Tho
speaker first cleared away all er-
roneous opinions ooncorning tho
law acting as a propitiation and
showed that wo were under the
now dispensation whioh was ush-
ered in by Christ. The dootrine
whioh Christ taught as far as
wo aro oonoorned covers every-
thing that is given us by tho law.
Christ is tho way tho truth and
tho life and no man oometh to
tho father oxcopt by him. A
number of apt illustrations were
given to show that all are indeed
very Binful and aro unworthy to
approaoh God. But Christ stands
as our raeditutor with tho Father
for us and through Christ wo
aro mado fit subjoots to approaoh
tho thronoof God Christ is tho
only ono who oan defend us.
