(Heb. 9:27) Th’s is an appointment man did not mke, but one which ajl men shall keep. > • . 4,1 “The first udgment we bf this evening is that of Christ ’Jesus bearing the believer's sins in His own l>ody > “Verrily verrily I say unto you that h-e that heareth My word, and believ* th on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting l'fe, and shall not come into judgment, (that is condem nation) but is passed from death unto life.” (John 5:24) Therefore the Be liever, in Christ, possesses a right eousness i n which God Himself can f nd no flaw, because Christ Jesus is h’s righteousness. “The second udgment is that of self. For if we would judge our selves. we should not be judged.” (1 Cor. 11:31). Self judgment avoids chastisement. “The third judgment is tha-t of the believer’s works before the judgment seat of Christ Jesus. “For we must all apper before the judgment seat of Christ; that everyone m|ay receive the things done in the body, accord ing to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.” (11 Cor. 5:10) The judgment here spoken of is of works not by works. Not a judgment for sins, for the beieve-rs s-’n have been judged at Calvary. But it is a judg ment to determine whether there shall be rewards, o loss of rewards, for the work done in the body of the believer while a n earth child # Eternal life is a gift, not a reward. “W 0 are saved by grace through faith, and that not of ourseves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest any m|an boa:►.i('F}pjh. 2:8-9).

Sheep, goats and brethren. The test off this judgment is the manner of tieatment accorded those to whom Christ refers as “My Brethren /’ That is the Jewish remlinant who preached the gospel during the tribulation pe riod spoken of in the Book of Reve lation, as well the Prophecy of Daniel “The next judgment, which is the fifth of which we study, is that of Israel, to determine who shall enter into the land for Kingdom blessing in that Day. “And I will cause you to pass under the rod .and I will bring you into the bond of the Covenant. (Ezk. 20:\37) During the mlillehiel reign of the Lord Jesus throughout the earth for the thousand years as promised in the prophecies of His Word, The Jews shall come into ful fillment of the covenant mode by Jehovah with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. “The sixth Judgment to which we refer, if that of the fallen angels. “And the angels which kept not their first estate, but leitf their own habi tation; He hath reserved in Everlast ing chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day, i.e. the day of the Lord.” (Jude This judgment tafyes place at the close of the millennial reign of Christ in the ea fth • “Then the seventh, and last judg ment to which we call our attention, is the judgment of the wicked dead- One thousand years previous to this judgment, hath the saints of God been judged: not for sins, but to de termine the extent of their rewards. Now the Great White Throne judg ment takes place. The books are opened, also the Book of Life and those Who claim justification through their works will find an awful blank' where their name might have been. “And I saw the dead, small and great stand before God; and the books were .opened; and another book was opened!, wihioh is the book of life, and tihe dead were judged out of jtho«e things wtthdk arc; wwxattgn jUk TALENTED MUSICIANS AT REV IVAL MEETING ML. v WiT t ~ 1 to*- ■ A |M MISS MURIEL C.

Two talented musicians are to be ’kdded to the staff of the union re- meeting at the Big Henderson if Warehouse beginning Monday evening and continuing through the remainder of the campaign, it was announced today by Rev. H. C. Caviness the evangelist. He said he had arranged for the coming, as his guests and those of Mrs. Caviness and others who assist him in all his evangelistic endeavors, two -ladies from Norfolk, Miss Muriel C. Smith and Miss Guila M. Logue. the books, according to their work, and the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell deliv ered up the dead which were in them; were judged every man ac cording to his works. And death and he’i were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And who soever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” (Rev. 20 12:15.) - “This is 'the judgmen tof terror; the judgment before which only one kind bf people will appear, that is the ..unsaved, the unbeliever. No per son who hath been regenerated, no believejr. shall appear for judgment ..here, thank God. But one finds that after -the resurrection of the -wicked dead they are still termed “dead. ” Dead forever. Dead to God even While they lived. One finds a strik ingly significant thing in Genesis Fourth Chapter. The descendants of Cain are not said to die, but the child ren of the promise die. One find that set forth in Genesis Fifth chap ter. The child of promise; that is, the believer, does die, but bis death is only physical; but the descendant of Cain, that is the unbeliever, while he dies physically, yet he never dies spiritually, and h’s punishment be comes greater than he ca nbear, but borne it must be, and through the long eons of,eternity the udgment is stil lexacited; the debt is never paid. At which judgment shall thou be? “Believe On the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.” (Act 16:31). Revival Leaders At Aycock School Friday Morning On Friday, M3ay 5 the pupils of Ay cock high school were fortunate to have Rev. H. C. Caviness, the eva gelist who is in chare of the revival meeting at the Big Henderson ware-- house, conduct their chapel exercises. Prof W. C. Poe voiced the senti ment of all present when he said, “We are indeed grateful for the pri vileis-e.” i Rev. Mr. Caviness paid tribute to Charles B. Aycock and Charles Mc- Iver, two of the greatest educators of North Carolina. He said he ap preciated the great men, but that he did not come to Aycock to talk-about dead men, but to talk about “living things.” The general theme of the evangelist's message Was “Living Is To Know Christ.” He emphasized the foot that n o one can, do your task fosfr you,” and that things in life are not always what they seem.” He read Mark 10: 17-21 containing the . conversation between Christ and the rich young ruler. He pointed out that the young ruler had knowledge and riches and that he held an hon orable position in life, but one thing he lacked—he did not know how t live in the true sense. At this same hour “Johnny” Jones, choir leader of the revival led the school in singing several songs. Ay cock school certainly enjoyed having these two consecrated men visit them, —Reported. DR. ELLIS APPEARS AT SCHOOL FINALS Dr,. Hugh A. Ellis, pastor of the First Baptist church of this city gave the commencement address on Fri day evening at Afton-Elberon school in.
