WHAT CHRISTIANS BELIEVE

Here is new statement of the
great truths believed and loved by
Christian people. II was drawn up
by the Congregati0nalists. but does
as well for Baptists. Methodists or
any other set of the followers OF
Christ.
We believe in God the Father, in
finite in wisdom, goodness and love;
And in Jesus Christ, His Son, our
Lord and Saviour, who, for us and
our salvation, lived and died and
liveth evermore;
And in the Holy Spirit, who
taketh of the things Of Christ and
revealeth them to US, renewing
comforting and inspiring the souls
of men.
We are united in striving to
know the will of God as taught in
the Holy Scriptures, and in our pur-
pose to walk in the ways of the
Lord, made known OF to be made
known to us.
We hold il to be the mission OF
the Church of Christ to proclaim
the Gospel to all mankind, exalting
the worship of the one true God,
and laboring for the progress OF
knowledge, the promotion Of justice,
the triumph Of peace, and the rsali-
zation of human brotherhood. .....
Depending, as did our fathers, up
on the continued guidance Of the
Holy Spirit to lead US into all truth,
we work and pray for the transfer
nation of the world into the king
dom Of God; and we look with faith
for the triumph Of righteousness
and for life and glory everlasting
Amen.

Fools make icasts and wise men
eat them.
God heals, and the doctor takes
the fees.
Keep thy shop and thy shop will
keep thee.
There never was a good war or a
bad peace,
II is hard for an empty bag to
stand upright.
Dost thou love life? Then do not
Squapder time.

but death and taxes
Never leave that for tomorrow
which you can do today.
If you would have your business
done, gol If not, send!
If you'd have servant that you

Those have short Lent who owe
money to be paid at Easter.
