The baskets were then passed rouad, and [ think about £100 was raised in all. The “ev. W. C. Webb, of Alexandria, then announced as bis text Matthew 4:1 to Ii. Subject: “Temptation of our Lord.” The speaker stated thai the temptation of vur Lord oceupies no slight place ja the list of the events of our Loid’s life as three of the Aposties have recorded it. There are those who would reduce this n&. ative to Action, but if this perrative is destroyed many of the other narratives recorded are desiroyed With it, and I would have you accept it this morning just as it is writtea. 1 would have ou accept that Christ was tempted as a Rumen belp¢, and not as @ divine one.

The ne- cessity of salvation is evident from the fact that man isa sinner agaist God, who has declared that sin, sball not go rnpunished. Il.
