You may well say "I don’t know,” tor various reaione, to such questions. But being a Christian is tomething different Are you one? You ought to know. You’re not i a perfect one, you may not yet even

be a very good one. It is quite right to say you don’t know just how much of a Christian you are, for only God knows that But if you have ever decided for Christ if you ever accepted Christ as Savior and Lord, then you are a Chris-tian-by-intention. If you never settled that before, you can settle it before you read another line. "Ttat Yen May Know” There is one ot the New Testament letters which has as its theme, "We Know.” It was written by the same person who wrote the Fourth Gospel In both the gospel and the letter, the author says plainly why he has written what he did. To the readers of the Gospel, John says, "These (things) are written that yoi» believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name." (John 20:31.) Now there must have been a number of people back yonder, as there are now, were uncertain whether they really "belonged as Christians, or not. If you asked them, "Do you believe?" they would say "Yes." If you asked them, “Are you sure you have eternal life?" they would say, like their modern descendants, "t don’t know, I hope so." John writes to just such people, so that they won’t have to give such a tipiid uncertain answer any more. "I write this to rather sit alone. Fellowship is lharing-with-love, it is a sharing teva. With Man It is a striking fact that although John is writing to and about the Christian church, he writes two of his three letters without ever using the word. Perhaps it was too cold and formal a word for him, al- _ though Patil loved the word "church” and so may we. But John did not want to be misunderstood. So he uses simple words like “God’s children,” “brothers.” The church is the place for fellowship among God’s children. In a real church,’ there is bound to be a closer, dearer tie between ChrisitlMl uq Christian than there ean be between persons outside the Church, or between Christians and outsiders. What brings Christians together in the first place is not simply themselves as human beings. It is their fellowship with God. It is because they are so close to him that they become close to one another. Now fellowship with other Christians in the church '; again more than sharing. Even on the sharing-level, how much of it is done in the typical church? What do "members” of the same church share? Pews, hymnbooks, the same sermons, preacher, potato salad at . chureh suppers? All this may be the doorway to Christian fellowship, but still not quite it. Two people ean sit at opposite ends of the same pew, and est out of the same salad bovfl, for years on end. without ever finding out what real fellowship means. It Is only when they really share the love of God, when together they let his love flow through them in joyous serv- _ ice in his name, that they discover Fellowship. . — Learning Hew .Christian churches would wither without Christian homes. Little children learn lessons in living first at home before they learn in Sunday school or church. Father, mother and children can learn together what Christian fellowship . is, and if they do, they will know what the preacher is talking about If they do not learn at home, thii minister, and the Bible, will seem to be talking tn a strange language. Actually, there Is not a great deal of time to practice fellowship in the church. Maybe one spends five hours a week there; it’s more than most do. But there are 168 hours in a week; what about the other 163? If the church is the lecture-room for fellowship, the home is the laboratory. The Bible tells us that it will work. Home is where we ean find oat how right it Little choices determine habit; habit carves and moulds charcter, which makes the big decisions. He who never made a mistake never made a discovery.

The Abundant Life Rev. J.R. Meadows Some people picture Christians as long-faced, gloomy, joyless creatures. They believe that when a man becomes a follower of Christ, he must say farewell to all earthly happiness. Nothing can be farther from the truth. The happiest people in the world are those who have forsaken the, life of sin and who have found the life that is in Christ Jesus. Indeed. only these-the heirs of heaven and of life eternal-have reason to rejoice. This earth would be cheerless indeed if we were robbed of our eternal hope. It is only when pur lives have been truly yielded to God. that the song begins in the heart-the song of thanksgiving and praise. "Rejoice in the Lord always!”
