    VOICE FROM AFRICA

    Evangelist David RussellAddresses Y 3L C A

    THE THE SOUL

    Cite the Story of Herod and Johnthe Baptist as Descriptive of theBattle Betrrcn Good and Evil thatEvery 3Ian Must FlRht and ofthe Choice Each Must Ttlalce

    Rev David Russell of South Aflca ad-dressed more than 300 men at tho massmeeting at the Young Mens ChristianAssociation Building yesterday afternoon-on The tragedy of the souL

    Mr Russell Is known as the foremostspeaker to men in South Africa His

    yesterday based on the story ofHerod and John the Baptist demonstrated to a large audience that his reputatlon as a pioneer evangelist is not oxaggerated

    Fight Between Good and EvilEvery soul is a battlefield between the

    and evil said Mr Russell inwhich Is fought out the groat fight

    good and evilWhenever the human soul becomes

    fined with the spirit of God the spirit ofnIl good the spirit of all evil will

    In the shock of battle One or theother will be the victor according to theside with which the will power of the in-dividual takes sides

    Tragedies which continually occur inthe minds of man were described by theevangelist as similar to the life of Davidand Saul as told in he Bible

    He roil and John the BnptifltIn Holy Writ said tho evangelist

    there is no sadder tragedy than thestory of Herod and John the BaptistHerod longed to enter the Kingdom ofHeaven yet he perished within sightGod John tho Baptist desired to beunited with God lived a life of exemplifi-cation and died in peace with his Maker

    These two men had souls capable ofloving God but how differently dem-onstrated this power

    Hero Mr Russell related in detail thestory of Herod and John calling par-ticular attention to the fact that KingHerod when bidden by John to give uprlotus living and forsake his brotherswife Hcrodfas refused

    Choice Between Good anti EvilThis is the great teat that confronts

    every man Herod was undecidedwhether he should give up God orHerodlas Like thousands of menthe present day he trIed to compromiseNo man yet has successfully compoundedwith his conscience

    The details loading up to the behead-ing of John at the behest of Herodiaswere rocked by the lecturer The crimethereby committed was termed thegreatest of all sins

    Herod died a hated man Like himmen of today willingly continue to lendbad lives and In that great test of menslives when they must either choose between God and passion play the cowardand In the end die miserable wrecksYoung men take this lesson as a warningand make your peace with God
