INVOCATION BY THE GENERAL OVERSEER

GENERAL OvERsEER Jesus the Christ Himself said d
IAN THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE"
have particularly desired that this Service this
being the regular time for observing the Lords Supper
especially keep minds fixed upon
Jesus the Christ.
There three Persons in the Godhead:
GOD the FATHER and, express it, GOD the SON.
or JESUS the CHRIST the SON, and GOD the HOLY
GHOST
We should honor the Father should honor the Son. and
should honor the Holy Ghost.
Sometimes very good sincere well meaning people
phaze the Holy Spirit entirely the exclusion of God the
Father and of God the Son: they pray the Holy Spirit they
sing about Holy Spirit and all their talk is about the Holy
Spirit.
There are others who dwell almost entirely the Son.
COP, THE FATHER, Musr FIRST HONOR
You will remember that of the burdens of DR.. Dowes
Ministry lead the people back God the Father and
he used he feared that people had almost forgotten
the Father; and there is that danger ~
AS study Gods Word should pay the proper respect
attention and consideration the Father Jesus the Christ said
"When We pray say, "Our Father"
We should also pay proper respect attention and condera
ton Jesus the Christ the Son and in like to the
Holy Spirit, the Comforter
JESUS CAME TO TESTIFY OF THE FATHER
Jesus testify Of the Father and the Holy Spirit
testify of Jesus the Christ the Son.
The work of each Person in the Godead very clearly
forth in the Scriptures and only the realm of
around do find system and ORDER but in Gods Word
find perfect system If you want mathematics you will find
mathematics in the Word Of God If you astronomy, you
will find there If you want solution for every question
religious, civil social otherwise you will find it in the
Word of God
This afternoon approach the Lords Supper Of
the ordinances of the Church of God desire that you shall
think especially of Jesus the Christ, the Son.
JESUS HAD EXISTENCE BEFORE HIS INCARNATION He WAS
CREATIVE AGENT
1t plainly taught in the Scriptures that Jesus
that that He existed before the Incarnation There many
passages of Scripture bearing this truth Jesus SAID BE
\ FORE ABRAHAM WAS, AM" And again: He was,
finishing His mission this world He called upon God the Father
gloy Him with the glory which He had with the Father
before the world was Jesus the Christ "The Lamb sla
from the foundation Of the world" "In the beginning
Word He the Agent in Creation It in and through
Him that all things created
Therefore take up study of the life of the Christ
we have to begin Heaven and have follow Him all the
way from Heaven He according the record in the
Second Chapter of Phippans Bethlehem all the way
along His through Getseane Calvary into the
tomb Of the tomb and then back Heaven The earthly
Ministry of Jesus the Christ distinctly bounded the
side by Bethlehem and on the other side by O1vet
But if merely study His Ministry from the Incarnation
the Birth in Bethehem-to the Ascension you will have missed
important parts of His giving the Plan Redemp
ton to the world.
CHRIST THOUGH HAVING NAME ABOVE EVERY OTHER NAME
HUMBLED HIMSELF THAT HUMANITY MIGHT Be SAVED
In part of Paus epses he Second Chapter of Philip
plans we have what be the panes description of
the Christ He with the Father Heaven and
the time when He Himself decided become the Savior of the
world.
We dwell great deal upon the words found in John 316
