Jehovah’s Witnesses Meet In Dowagiac “We are surrounded with so much lawlessness now that it takes an extreme example to shock most people,” a Sunday afternoon audience of 1467 was told at the Union senior high school in Dowagiac. The speaker Marvin L. Holien, a district minister of Jehovah’s Witnesses the subject “Law and Order — When and How?” “Four factors stand out,” said Holien, “that make law and order by man an impossibility. First, the legal systems and those who enforce them are imperfect and corrupt. Second, even if laws were perfect, the governed people are not. Third, Jesus said at John 12:31 that Satan the Devil is the ruler of this world. Fourth, Jehovah God, the Creator, never did give humans the right to independent self-rule. So it is proper to look to God for lasting law and order.” Holien then told the 17 congregations present that as long as God permits the many varieties of human governments, far be it for the true Christian to feel he must step in and demonstrate or attempt to overthrow the existing authority, only to replace it by another one just as imperfect. Most laws are enacted in public interest, and obedience benefits everyone, Christian and non-Christian. Jehovah’s Christian Witnesses, now in 200 different lands, use the same Holy Bible and find that its regulations and principles are most appropriate. Under every form of human government they follow God first, yet “have honor for the king” and ’’obey the higher powers placed in their relative position by God.” Those in the Syracuse area were introduced at the conference to their new circuit minister, Frank J. Picel. Mr. Picel, who originally is from Pennsylvania, serves 17 congregations in southern Michigan and northern Indiana. Picel will be serving the Syracuse congregation during the month of October.
