WISE ADVICE °TO CHRISTIAN WORKERS “If I am concerned about do ing the will of God, He is infi nitely more concerned that I should know His will.” z “Don’t talk about minor mem bers in your church. God’s chil dren are all of major impor tance.” “Don’t talk about the tragedy of the cross. Talk about the tra gedy of sin that caused the cross.” “The teacher's task is to cry, as did John the Baptist, ‘Behold the Lamb of God,’ and not to attract attention to himself to gather a clique around himself.” “Too many Christians are seeking an easy life. They want the gospel train to be stream lined and air-conditioned, and furnished with parlor chairs.” “This age that does not want the blood of Calvary is an age of murderers above all other ages.”—Christian Index (Color ed Methodist Episcopal Church). GOD’S UNCHANGING WORD For feelings come and feelings go, And feelings are deceiving. My warrant is the Word of God, Naught else is worth believing. Though all my heart should feel condemned For want of some sweet token, There is One greater than my heart Whose Word cannot be broken. r I’ll trust in God’s unchanging Word Till soul and body sever. For though all things shall pass away, His Word shall stand forever. —Martin Luther. RAGSDALE MORTUARY Ch v ,t In the Valle, , 1100 E. Jefferson Ph. AL 2-3471 THURSDAY.
