A.
THE BROMLEY MEETINGS.
They have been in progress twenty
two days and the results have already
justified the money and time expend
ed. There have been only twelve ser
vices in which an invitation h«s bee.i
8 ven and over one hundred souls
have definitely sought the Lord.
Wagner is now somewhere near
ele'.en or twelve years old, but in the
past twelve days mere souls have
been converted in this citj than have
been won to Christ during these
twelve years. Will anyone, in the
face of this fact say that revivals are
a back number—a worn out method
and do not pray? Alright, folks, just
go right on wi'b that sort of reason^
ing if you get any comfort out of it,
but remember that the romley meet*
ings of Wagner, S. D., of 1912, is a
tremendous argument against such
illogical reasoning.
100 souls turned to God in twelve
days! What a glorious victory
And yet the tide is on and rising high
er with eaeh meeting, and the flip*
pancy noticable during the first few
services has disappeared. Serious
ness has settled down upon all classes.
Evangelist Bromley has a big warm
heart that takes in all men ill his
sympathies, and that fact is being felt
more and more, but he does not sacri
fice truth to please and draw men. lie
believes that the Gospel of Christ is
the power of God unto Salvation, and
preaches it in its purity. The wrath
of God is preached as well as h's love.
Hell is not whittled down just to ease
men's conscience or to suit the so-call
ed "new thought." Rev. Bromley is
a real preacher of Christ. He nas the
goods and is delivering them in a force
fill, blunt, manly way, and somehow
Wagner people are warming up to soch
preahing and are manifesting a real
relish for such preaching.
The truth-loving man inor oot^of
the cnurch is enjoying the high stand
ard held up by the Evangelist. The
card playing, dancing, theater-going
church member receives no quarters*
Such hypocritical preachers and
Church members are shown up and are
rightly branded. The church of Jesus
Christ is held up to be something more
than a club house, oi a gang of card
players and society leaders.
Another feature of Mr. Bromley's
work is his thoroughness. He is not
only thorough in his preaching, but
also in dealing with the men and wo
men who come forward io seek Christ.
This is no hand-shaking card-signir.g
revival. In otner words, Mr. Bromley
believes that men ought to repent and
confess their Bins and be genuinely
saved.
He believes that the churches have
enough worldliness ir them now, an"
what we need is real definite Cristian
experience that will separate a man
from his sins and give him victory
over the world, flesh and the devil.
Such is the character of the work
being done urder the Leader Bromley
and his workers, and it is a feast to
our souls to behold what God hath al
ready wrought in our midst.
Hi before ceasing we must mention
the fact that last Sunday was a grest
day in this campaign. The wiseacres
of the town have been wagging their
heads and saying that this campaign
could not be financed but last Sunday
that idea was exploded and these pro
phets proven to be false. Through the
careful management of the financiers
by Rev. Bromley the balance of the 1
four hundred dollars neaded to meet
the incidental expenses was easily
raised.
So
the coast ie clear and there
For Sale.—
J. Baker,
Wagner, S. D,
is
nothing left to do but to go in for soul
saving. We said in our first article
that Wagner was capable of doing big
things, and last Sunday proved it.
Then there was the men's meeting
Sunday afternoon which was attended
by a third more than were present at
the first men's meeting, and it was a
great lect're and an enthusiastic
bunch of men. It was a great ser
vice. Now, friends, you are all heart
ily invited to all the services for the
balance of this week. You simply can
not afford to mm one of them.
