Dear Mrs. Collie: Your letter to the
Banner was read and its contents closely
noted. In reply will say:
One law, not ten. The ten command
ments are not ten different laws. They
are one law. If I am being held up in
the air by a chain with ten links and
break one of them, down l come just as
surely as if I had broken the whole ten.
II l am forbidden to go out of an en-
closure, it makes no difference at what
part break through the fence. "Who-
soever shall keep the whole law and Of
fend in one point he is guilty OF the
whole" The golden chain of obedience
is broken if one link is missing. Glove
is the fulfilling of the law" If the love
of God is shed abroard in your heart
you will be able to fulfill the law. Paul
reduced the commandments to one
Glove, the fulfilling of the law"
"Love to God will honor his name.
Glove to God will reverence his days.
"Love to parents makes one honor
them.
"Hate, not love, is murderer.
"Lust, not love, commits adultry.
"Love will give but never steal.
"Love will not SANDER or lie.
Gloves eye is not coyetous."
Are you ready? 1t is the height of
madness to turn away and run the risk
OF being called by God to Judgment and
have no hope in Christ. Now is the day
and the hour to accept salvation. Then
he will be with you. Do you step aside
and say, am not ready yet I want a
little more time to frolic and dance and
have big old time? You may not have
tomorrow. Wasn't Belshazzar cut of
suddenly? Would he have believed thai
was going to be his last night-that he
would never see the light of another
sun? That banquet of sin didn't close
as he expected. AS long as you delay
you are in danger.
If you don't enter into the kingdom O.
heaven by Gods way you cannot ente
in at all. You must accept Christ al
; your savior or you will never be fit to b.
} weighed.
So let's organize our singing and Sun
, day school and prepare for the summon
that God is sure to send so we may b.
ready to go. Yours very respectfully,
J. E. MCCAIN.
