IN THE LAST HOURS
(By Hattie M. Simmons)

The love for life began to fail
The reins of death over will fail,
The very heart will sleep
The hands of death will slowly creep
The is the last hours.
Doom is easy as love
When it received above,
Closed eyes in blessed sleep
The Angel in heaven will shout and
Leep in the last hours.
After death that's only dream
After the cross of Jordan stream,
The stream is so chilly and cold
The sheep are gathered in the fold,
In the last hours.
After the cross of Jordan stream
no more about dream,
In heaven where joy will never cease
In the last hours

THE BAPTIST BROTHERHOOD
Dear Brethren

FORASMUCH as many have confess
that they are called to preach the Cos
pei of Jesus Christ; we are most surely
believed their statement but we are
persuaded to believe that the essential
of being called, we must know the
Scripture before we confess our calling,
and then the apostle added Study 10
shew they-self approved unto God, a
working needeth not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth
Men are constantly, in an volunteerly
way, connecting themselves to the
Christian Church, and this is very nice
to do this way; we believe men did
something like this in our Christ's time:
the Ten men who had the lepers, is a
volunteer act, the return of one) the
two blind men and Nicodemus was a
volunteer disciple of our Christ; when
1t comes to leadership to preach the
gospel of Jesus Christ men are born:
and they are born for this work; thew
are elected, and selected: the king
dom is already prepared for whom God
fore knew, before they are born, these
are they who are chosen; but we see
men are in this group, who are picked
out, or they are called to higher de-
gree: they have a CONSUMPTION that they
can not resist to preach the gospel of
Jesus Christ; SO, it was with Isaiah,
and the apostle Paul and above all: it
was me.
The work Of the minister is too i'm
portant to be uned so care less, and
convenient: the preacher is not him
self, he is Gods man; and we should
see it that way. God is depending on
the minister to make disciples in all
nations, if SO, we must qualify our
selves to meet the emergency of all the
people.
The Great Commission, Jesus COM
mand the apostles to Go we therefore
and make disciples of all baptizing
them in the name of the Father, and
of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost
teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever 1 have commanded you;
believe when a disciple is made, he
needs teaching, and not gospel; but he
is to be inspired, instruction and correc
ted in righteousness. Now how can a
man function the office of a minister
when he is not literary prepared 10

delaney for the Bishopric. l know it
will seem strange to some that have no
vision, but the time has come that men
should be honored with positions that
have merited them and have the alb
ility to do something. People now
should forget sex, greed and denomin-
ational faith and elect men and women
who can give a program to the people.
I am supporting your race because l
don't see you as Methodist preacher
and l am a Baptist deacon. l see you as
man of vision, and that is what this
race needs. Where there is no vision
people perish Hope you will win.
