Witaass Lemon fir November I, INA ! lU<krr*an4 Reriptar*: IX Timothy 1:1-14. Dev*Un*l K«*dliM: Psalm 37:1-1, 7-14. , rpHE BEST advertising is not A in print. Manufacturers set aside enormous sums to full-page ads in newspapers or slick magazines, for posters and bill* boards, for spots on TV, and so forth; but what no company can

buy is the best advertising of all — word of mouth. One person telling another; I’ve tried it, and it’s great! is the surest way of getting the truth — if it is true — spread the population.

Dr, Foreman around among

You can pay to have lies printed; but you can’t pay people to lie about your produet; word-of-mouth advertising is generally truthful. For Truth, not trifles Christian life is more than talk. It begins with faith, and this is a matter of attitude, of response to God, not of words. The real test of a Christian is never first of all. What does he say? Nevertheless words are a part of the Christian life, and an important part too. Man is a word-using and word-making creature, and if Christianity were a silent wordless thing, it would be unfitted for the life and needs of men. - The amount of words poured out in conversation every day is enormous, no one can count them; but how many of those are Christian words? This brings up another question: What kind of talk is Christian? For one thing, the Christian speaks up for truth, not lies, —* of course. Many books today, many speakers from public platforms, many editors, feed the public with lies or half truths. The Christian man will pot ask first of all what is' pleasant and popular, but what is true; A lying Christian is no Christian at all. But the truths M which Christians speak are the important ones. For those who have no voice A communist will tell you that all religions, including Christianity, are gigantic frauds; tranquillizers to make people forget their fears and troubles; and that only communism has any real interest in the people on the bottom levels of society, the poor, the depressed, around the earth. This is one of the communist lies. A great deal was said and done for the oppressed and voiceless of the world long before any communists were heard of. For example: In England, When machines were first used in industry, much of the work was done by little children, as young as seven years. Their working hours were from five A.M. to eight P.M., standing all that time. In the mines it was even worse; little children five years old, boys and girls, had to drag tubs of ore out of the mines, through roadways often under 28 inches high, —for a sixteen-hour day. Those child workers were voiceless, they needed a voice to speak loudly for them; and it was Christian voices, especially that of Lord Shaftesbury, one of the great Christians of any century, who roused the conscience of England, and changed the laws. A “Christian” who is silent about injustice when he has a • chance to speak, a “Christian” i who is blind to injustice hardly deserves the name of Christian. For Christ 2A Christian’s witness, then, is always for truth; always for justice; and also, first and last, for Christ. Speaking up for Christ, seems often more difficult than speaking for truth and for the Victims of injustice. Don’t we often leave all the witnessing for Christ to the preacher? But the fact is, if we do that we are dodging what can be not only our duty but our delight. What does it mean, really, to “witness to Christ?” It just means speaking i up for him. When you hear some ' one talking-down a Christian; truth, whenever you hear some ■ one denying that Jesus was right,; whenever you hear Jesus ridiculed as long out of date, or hear Christians caricatured as starryeyed fools, then is the time to to speak a good word for him. Speaking out for Christ means letting people know you are a Christian.

GOD WANTS US IN CHURCH Rev. James R. Meadows God wants His children to assemble in His house to praise and magnify His meat holy name. He has ordained His church for this purpose. In His house the heavenly Father meets and greets and blesses His blood-bought children. Certainly, “we will not forsake the assembling of ourselves together in God’s house, as the manner of some is.” We know that you have sorrows and burdens. We also know that your sorrows and burdens will become lighter if you will take advantage of the blessing of God’s house. The Gospel of Jesus Christ has that wonderful power to heal your broken hearts, to change your sorrows into joy and your weeping into laughter. Why not take advantage of this power of God unto Salvation? Jesus says, “Come.” See to it that He need not look in vain for you?
