If a man should keep all the COM
mandments of God, from his youth, why
would that entitle him to eternal life?
Why is it possible to keep all the
outward commandments and still miss
eternal life?
This man was evidently sincere in
thinking he had kept all the command
ments. mentioned by Jesus, but what
is the proof that he was mistaken?
Why cannot i man have eternal life
who puts more value upon his present
property, than he does upon heavenly
riches?
This was evidently a very good
young man, but what serious defect
did he have in his character?
As a real self-interested proposition
which is to be preferred, and why,
treasure in heaven, or riches en- earth?
Is the condition Jesus stated to this
young ruler, to sell all his earthly pos
walton essentially a condition for every
body, and why?
How much of influence or time or
money, may Christian retain for
himself, and remain well pleasing TO
God?
Verses 2S-26-Why is it impossible
for rich man to enter into the king
dom Of heaven?
If a man with great possessions holds
all he has at the command of God, and
is using his money in the cause of God,
what difference is there between him
and A true Christian with no earthly
possessions

At first each seemed to me a huge

continued TO look the birds sprang into
life. They raised their heads and
craned their necks, and I thought they
imagined us corpse bearers. moment
later a funeral made its way up the

AS the procession drew near the
birds grew excited. They tapped their
wings and flew from one side of the
tower to the other. The slope of the
grating is such that I could not see
the little body as it was stripped and

two weeks before she died her recovery

talked freely about dying, expressing her
willingness on several occasions, stating
that she was prepared to go. Miss Bulah
was born in this community about IS years
Dry Greek Baptist church when a mere
child, and dur ng all the years she was
seldom absent from church or Sunday
school. She loved Divine service, was
student of the Bible and was we'll

and assuming yet positive in her con-
victions. She was kind to every enc,
and her friends were limited only by her
acquaintance. She is che person of whom
the writer never heard an evil word
spoken. Her life of self-sacri6ce and
thoughtfulness for the welfare of others
was beautiful. Nc person ever did more
to make the declining days of mother
happy than she. Even in the last days
of her illness, when she was so weak
that her voice was scarcely audible, she
would call her mother to her bed daily
