GREAT HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH, CARSISLE, PA.

THE MEETINGS CLOSED TONIGHT WITH A GREAT CROWD OF GREAT HOPE FOLKS AND SEVERAL VISITORS. TWO OF THE VISITORS, A YOUNG MAN AND HIS GIRLFRIEND WERE SAVED THIS EVENING AND ONCE AGAIN THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR WAS IN USE. THE YOUNG MAN THAT WAS SAVED AND WAS ABOUT TO ENLIST IN THE MARINE CORPS, HEARD THAT I WAS PREACHING AT GREAT HOPE, AND CAME HE THOUGH, JUST TO TALK. WE TALKED ALL RIGHT BUT VERY LITTLE ABOUT THE CORPS AND LOTS ABOUT THE LORD. IF WE CAN JUST GET THE LOST UNDER THE SOUND OF THE GOSPEL THE LORD WILL SAVE THEM OR OPEN THEIR HEARTS FOR FOLLOW UP. ONE TWENTY-ONE YEAR OLD YOUNG LADY WAS SO CONVICTED ABOUT HER OWN PERSONAL STANDARDS OF DRESS THAT SHE AGREED WITH THE LORD TO WEAR CLOTHING THAT ONLY CHRISTIAN LADIES WEAR. CAN YOU HEAR ME SHOUTING ABOUT THIS? THE LORD CONVICTED ANOTHER LADY ABOUT HER PUNY EFFORTS TO HAVE HER DEVOTIONS AND BIBLE READING AT NIGHT AND PRAYING FOR VICTORIES OVER BATTLES THAT SHE HAD ALREADY LOST. SHE BEGAN THIS WEEK TO PRAY AND HAVE HER DEVOTIONS EARLY AND INDICATED THAT THE LORD HAD ALREADY CHANGED HER LIFE WITH VICTORY VICE DEFEAT.
