A pril 7, 1928 Text : 1 Jno. 5:11

“ I was taking a short drive one day in a southern city,’' says James McConkey. “ Coming homeward I began to give the Gospel to the man who was driving. I tried to show him that eternal life was in Christ Jesus and that when he received Christ as his Saviour he would receive that life. But he could not see it. I owed him a dollar for his fare. Reaching into my pocket, I pulled out a dollar bill. Then I took a small coin purse; folded up the dollar bill; put it into the purse; snapped the clasp ; and handed him the purse. ‘William, you have the dollar I owe you, don’t you?’ ‘Yes, sir,’ said he. ‘How do you know you have?’ T saw you put the dollar into the purse, and I have the dollar because I have the purse.’ ‘Well said, William ! Now listen to this : ; “ ‘ “This is the rècord, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath life, and he that hath not the,Son hath not'life.”-;’ “ ‘William, this iis God’s own record, that He hath ' given unto us eternal life. Mark, it is a gift just as surely as I gave you that dollar, only more so, for it is a gift without price. Now God has put this eternal life in His son. That is the record of His Book. As soon as you break with sin in your heart and take His Son as your Saviour, you will have eternal life, just because it is in Him as surely as that dollar is in that purse. Will you do this? Will you take Him now?’ I held out my hand as I spoke, offering him the Son in whom the Father has placed eternal life. He took my proffered hand ; the tears came into his eyes. He said, ‘I see it, sir’ : and right there, as I verily believe, he. found the Christ in whom God has put everything He; has, for lost; men and women, the Christ in whom alone, is eternal life.” 3& A pril 8 , 1928 Text: Rev. 22:16 Dan Crawford used to tell how, when his Africans were on the march and night was- coming on, they would lie down to sleep. But before dropping off to sleep there would pass from group to group about the fires the Watchword “ Lutanda” (Morning Star).- It was a laconic agreement to be up and ready to move when the morning star appearéd. To Mr. Crawford it was ever a parable for those who lay down in their last sleep with heart and mind fixed on Him who' is the bright and morning star, and who will awaken the sleeping to resurrection life and glory.
