If you want to succeed in the world, you must make your own opportunities as you go on. The man who waits for some seventh wave to toss him on dry land will find that the seventh wave is a long time a-coming. You can commit no greater folly than to sit by the roadside until some one comes along and invites you to ride with him to wealth and influence. John B. Gough.

The Church Invites You “There can be no conflct between science and religion,” says physicist Arthur H. Compton. “Science.is a reliable method of finding truth. Religion is the search for a satisfying way of life. Science is growing — yet a world that has science, needs as never before, the inspiration that religion has to offer.” Most of us want to live in accordance with truth, but the realization of truth is like the pursuit of a flying goal and some are unwilling to pay the price for its pursuit. The basic truths of life require truths are to be found in the will of God, shown in the life and teachings of Jesus, as proclaimed by the Christian church. WHY NOT ACCEPT THE INVITATION AND COME TO CHURCH NEXT SUNDAY? THE BETTER WAY Avoiding Confusion Dr. Wendell Fifield has said the following on this subject: “Confusion in life cannot be completely avoided, but it can be kept at a minimum. Banish those elements in life that are of little or no consequence. The greatest confusion is found in lives that are cluttered with the inconsequential. Every life should be equipped with a mental wastbasket into which unimportant things may be discarded. If one is to achieve a sense of order and purpose instead of confusion, he must have a standard by which to judge what is important and unimportant. Our instincts and desires are likely to lead us astray at this point. The standard of values for ite'Christibn is to jfe found in the teachings of Jesus. When we commit ourselves wholly and devotedly to His way of life, life’s confusions are at a minimum. Read Isiah 26: 1-10.” DANIEL EMENHISER Painting & Decorating Bam & Roof Painting Part ytew Drive PHONE 3-4158

Our Preacher The nature of what we see is partially determined by the glasses we wear whether they be rosecolored or any other. Some might say this is unfortunate since we do not see objects as they really are, but if the color protects the eyes, or increases beauty of vision, it is good. What we see is primarily determined by what we are and we would be wise to look at the world through spiritual glasses. CHURCH FORUM WHAT ARE THE QUALITIES A SUCCESSFUL PASTOR SHOULD POSSESS? Observe this list of spiritual qualities-a bill of particulars-con-sidered as imperatively inherent for a successful pastor: The strength of an ox The tenacity of bulldog The daring of a lion The patience of a donkey The industry of a beaver The versatility of a chameleon The vision of an eagle The meekness of a lamb The hide of a rhinoceros The disposition of an angel The resignation of an incurable The loyalty of an apostle The heroism of a martyr The faithfulness of a prophet The tenderness of a shepherd The fervency of an evangelist The devotion of mother. And remember, please, this list is by no means complete, merely suggestive.

CREAMED COMMENTS CREAMED COMMENTS ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON. EZEKAIL PLEADS FOR REPENTANCE, Ezekail 1:1; 2:3-5; 18:1-4, 30-32, for Sunday, August 12. Jerusalem fell to Babylotr>in 597 8.C., a young prophet, Ezekail, had a vision and heard the voice of God telling him to prepare his fellow exiles for their return to their homeland. Ezekail was held in high esteem by his fellow exiles and his captors. He cautioned, condemned, reproved and comforted people in despair. He is said to have been murdered eventually in Babylon and one can still see his tomb not far from Bagdad. V.l. “Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the ‘month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.” Here Ezekail indicates the date he became a prophet. His vision, inolving God’s manifestation of His supreme sovereignty, was what Ezekail needed to establish his leadership among the captives. Above the power of their captor was the unchanging power of God, who, although supreme in the heavens, cared for them . Vs. 3-5. “And he said upto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me: they and their fathers have unto this very day. . . For they were impudent children and stiffhearted. I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God. . . And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear (for they are a rebellious house,) yet shall know that there hath been a prophet among them.” Jeremiah was told to prophsey to a people who long rebelled against God, who were stubborn and unrepen. tant. Ezekail was in favor with the rulers of Babylon and could have had an easy life, but he accepted his difficult mission because it was the will of God that the Israelites should be brought back to Him. Whether the exiles followed Ezekail’s advice or not, later events would prove that what he told them was correct, and he would vindicated. Vs. 1,2. “The word of the Lord came unto me again saying, . . . What mean ye, that ye use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, the fathers have eaten sour grapes, and, the children’s teeth are set on edge?” The captors found it convenient to blame their ancestors for their misfortune and believed that God visited the iniquity of the fathers upon the children. This quotation was a poular proverb and emphasized ■ corporate responsiblity rather than individual responsibility for one’s conduct. Each generation does influence succeeding generations by what it does but not to the extent of eliminating personal responsibility for one’s actions. Vs. 3,4. “As I live, saith the Lord God, ye shall not have occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel. . . Behold, all souls fire mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine; the soul that sinneth, it shall die.” Individual responsibility has been one of the major emphases of the Jewish faith and of Christianity. The prophet insisted' that the people should never again blame their misery and their sins on anyone else. God treats everyone alike and none receives speical absolution of the results of sin. True morality is always higher than the current maxims of society. Every generation coins new proverbs to rationlize their sins, but the wisdom of God’s law is always the same. The prophet emphasizes that the captives must accept individual responsibility for their sins and not blame their

condition on their parents. Va. 30,31. "Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord God; Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so Iniquity shall not be your ruin. . . Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?” Repentance is the first step in reformation. Unless the people did repent and be transformed by giving up all their transgressions, they would be destroyed. The wages of sin are death. One cannot turn from the source of life and continue to have life. Every man will some day be judged by his deeds. Vs. 32. “For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.” God is loving, but He is just. He dislikes seeing anyone suffer, but He abides by the laws He establishes and the soul that sins shall die. Ezekail pleaded with the people to look to God for hope and life since there is no ultimate security in human power. — Based on copyrighted outlines produced by the Division of Council of the Churches o fChrist Christian Education, National in the U.S.A., and used by permission.
