OBITUARY Emma Rockhili was born September 16th, 1850, and died March 26, 1929. She was the daughter of John Orr and Hannah Orr. On September 17th, 1870 Emma Orr was united in marriage to Frampton Rockhili. For many yeais the Rockhills’ lived at Brazil, Indiana, where they became members of the Methodist Church, to which they remained faithful during their lifetime. Aieiut the year 1905 they moved to the city of Greencastle, where they continued to reside during the remainder of their lives. Mr. Rockhili died on June 30th, 1925, and his widow continued to make her home at their residence on Beveridge Street, in this city. Mrs. Rockhili leaves two daughters, Mrs. Ralph Hill of Greencastle and Mrs. W, G. Badger of Indianapolis and three -ons, Lawrence Rockhili and Howard Rockhili of Greencastle, and Frampton Rockhili Jr., of Brazil. Emma Rockhili was a good Christian woman. She was kind and considerate. She kept the faith. Her children, grundchildtcn, and a host of neighbors and friends, will mourn, as if she were gone, but truely, in the larger meaning of things she is and will ever remain with us, her influence stamped by her life and her faith on those with whom she came in contact, will go on forever. ( ARD OF THANKS We wish to thank our friends and neighbors for their many acts of kindness and sympathy shown us during our recent bereavement in the death of our beloved mother, Mrs. Frampton Rockhili. Her Children.
1. The empty sepulcher (vv. 1-3). (1) The coming of the women (v. 1). As an expression of affectionate regard for the Master, they came with spices for His body. If they had believed His words, they would have known Hint His body could not be found in the sepulcher. (2) What they found (vv. 2, 3). When they came to the sepulcher they found the stone had been rolled away, but they found not the body of Jesus. For them to have found Ills body in the sepulcher would have been the world's greatest tragedy. The empty tomb spoke most eloquently of the deity nnd power of the Son of God (Rom. 1:0). 2. The message of the men In shining garments (vv. 4-8). (1) “Why seek ye the living among the dead?" (v. 5). This question, uttered by the angels, has been reverberating through the centuries. (2) “He Is not here, but Is risen.” Jesus had told them that the Lord must be betrayed nnd crucitied and that on the third day He would rise again. Had they given heed to His words they would have been relieved of their perplexities. 3. The women witnessing to the eleven (vv. 9-11). Their thrilling testimony concerning the empty tomb nnd the words of the angels appeared to the apostles as Idle tales nnd they refused to believe. 4. Peter Investigating (v. 12). While the testimony of the women seemed ns idle tales, Peter was not of the temperament to dismiss the matter from Ids mind, therefore he ran unto the sepulcher. Upon Investigation lie found the linen clothes lying In such a way ns to prove the reality of the resurrection. II. Jesus Preparing a Place In Heaven for His Own (John 14:1-3) These last words of Jesus were words of comfort. The hopes of the disciples were utterly shattered when Jesus told them about the cross. He consoled them by pointing to the reunion In ttie heavenly Father’s house. 1. He asked them to trust in Him, even ns God (v. 1). Faith In the God man, Christ Jesus, will steady the heart, no matter how intense the grief, or how great the
sorrow.
2. lie Informed them that He was going to the Father’s House in heaven to prepare a home for them (v. 2). lie assured them that there was nlmndnnt room there for all. lie said, there were many “abiding places." Heaven Is an eternal dwellIng place for God's children. 3. He assured them that He would come again nnd escort them to heaven (v. 3). Jesus will not depend upon nor wait for His own to come to Him, but will come nnd rail forth from the grave those who have died; transforming living believers, nnd take them all together to be forever with Himself in the heavenly home. III. Jesus Christ Is ths Way to the Heavenly Father (vv. 4-6). Jesus informed the disciples that they knew the place to which lie was going, nnd the way. To this Thomas Interposed a doubt, In answer to which Christ asserted that He Is: 1. The Way (v. 6). Jesus Christ Is more than a mere guide to God. He Is the way itself. 2. The Truth (v. 0). He Is not merely the teacher, but the Truth Incarnate. In His Incarnation the spiritual nnd material worlds were united; therefore every line of truth, whether spiritual or material, converged In Him. 3. The Life (v, C). Christ Is not merely the giver of life, but lie is the very essence of life. Only those who receive Christ have life In the true sense.
