B. Kaine,• in' First Presbyterian Church, Seaforth, in the coarse of the anni- versary services last Sunday. The excellent singing by the choir cif two numbers in the morning and three at night went a long way to- ward making the services a success. Under' the leadership of Mr; Rennie it seems only fitting to say that a better. rendering of the numbers given would be heard at few, if any, other places:' sreas,tttotu "ThLost Book," the text taken from III Kings, 22:8, "I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord:." Books are being continually lost, some great catastrophe or because they,&peak their message and have their day andcease ease to Ybe. We Out- grow books as individuals and as a race somewhat as a child outgrows its toys, But there is one book we have never outgrown. The Bible thou so old, is the newest and the fresh and most vigorous piece of literat in the world today, It speaks to needs of our day, and of all days, as if written peculiarly for that time, He said: "What are the most pro- gressive countries of our present day, They are the countries where the Bible is an open book. The people of Can- ada are, at least to some extent a Bible reading and Bible guided peo- ple, and Lain confident that if the day ever conies when. Canada ceases to be so, that the sun of her national great- ness will set forever," ' Every man should be interested'in the Bible from the standpoint of Lit ature. In it you will find the best b graphy, philosophy, oratory, poet -and songs. To understand modern 1 erature one should know his Bible., understand God one should read Bible. intelligently. Mr. Laine sa "The one great purpose of the book to give man a new conception of Go Its sixty-six volumes, written by men of every station of society from ploughmen and shepherds to prime ministers and kings, separafed by fif- teen centuries of time, are joined to- gether in that they give us a growing vision of the face of God." We should appreciate this Book be- cause of the cost of the book. God's sons have suffered for it. They have given their lives'' that we night have it. We should appreciate it because of the help it is to people in distress and because it is true. "Heaven and earth shall pass away but my word shall -'never pass away," In closing he. said: "See to it that you do not allow the Bible to become to you a host book;" You need its help in•youth, in middle life and in old age. .Give the Bible first place amongyour hooks, study it in the light of Jesus Christ and you will find yourself say- ing in genuine gladness, holy Bible, book divine, Precious treasure, thou art mine, *. * * In :the eyening the subject was "Christ's Bible:" Taking his text from Luke 4:17, "And Jesus took the book, and opened it and found the place where it was written 'The Spirit. of the Lord is upon me,'" he said: "Bear in mind that when the Lord would preach a sermon, He 'took a text, and He took it out of the Bible and He ound His illustrations in the Bible." Christ answered his temptations by notations from the Bible which he ad. In the defense of his disciples he ontinuously used His Bible and in indication - of Himself, He used His ible. During the last hours of his ' le he quoted from the Psalms, and fter He came back he proved to the isciples on the Emmaus Road, from he law of Moses, the prophets and e Psalms,—that was His Bible—that 1 these things were predicted of imself. Mr. Koine said: "Pam interested to now that when Jesus made use of His Bible, he picked the things that -day we cannot understand, the mir nlous, the supernatural things. He its His authority upon them by His Fusion to them." He said that Christ quoted from enesis, Exodus, +Leviticus, Numbers d Deuteronomy. From the histori- 1 portion of the Bible when He re- rred to first and second Kings and muel, He quoted Psalms all the me. Froin the major prophecies He toted Isaiah and Jeremiah. Jesus lked about Zechariah and Malachi, e minor prophets. Christ used His ble. He called it the Word of God d said this tremendous thing about s own utterances, "The words that speak shall, judge you at the last y" He knew and meant that His ord should come down to ,us, Mr. Laine said he preached this Ber- n because ass he wished I w s ed to call back ny to -day who are losing their th in the Word of God, to make the me use of their enlarged Bible that us Christ did of His smaller ,Bible. answer a man who said he would t study the Old Testament `because he needed was contained in the Ne Testament, To call the attention he younger people to the fact that us, when He walked on earth, be - ed in the Scripture, To once More firms, or rather re -affirm, that this rch is standing by the entire' Word LIONS' ENTERTAINMENT The Lions, Christmas.
