GLAD EASTER

Il
Easter is that glad day when
all Christians rejoice to hear again
the good news. It is the resurrec-
ton Of Christ that makes the
Good News really good. It au-
thenticates the message. 1t crowns
the redeeming work Of our Sa-
vior. It proves Lord who is alive
forevermore. In the divine econ
omy it was indeed necessary as
Jesus had said more than once.
that He should be put TO death.
and ION the third day rise again. :"
The very ground of our faith
and the basis of our hope are
found in the transeendent fact
that Christ rose from the dead.
IF Christ hath not been raised.
then is our preaching vain, and
your faith is also vain, and we are
of all men most pitiable." So de-
clares Paul, who himself had seen
the risen Lord and who from the
first stressed the Resurrection as
an essential part of the Gospel.
sIt is by the resurrection of Je-
sus Christ from the Dead" says
the apostle Peter, that we are
begotten again unto a lively
hope"
As an eyewitness John writes
about the startling event. Simply
and graphically he relates facts,
that were undreamed of BY
the disciples, but glorious facts
that pulled them out of the black
ness of despair into the glow of
hope. OF the ten or eleven def
mite appearances of the risen
Christ, John selects to tell es.
pecialiy of those that emphasize,
the bodily resurrection, and that
mark the growth of faith until
the most obstinate disbelieyer was
convinced beyond the shadow of
doubt. 1t is important to OBJ
serve that in Johns record he
seeks to bring out the fact and
make it clear to ali, that Christ
actually, bodily rose from theI
dead.
There are those who deny any
sort of a resurrection in the face
of all evidence. The first prem
Use of their thinking puts them
beyond the possibility of proof.
To them the physical is everything.
Mental, moral and whateyer spirit
ual life there might be are de-
pendent upon the physical. This
materialistic thought is the de-
structive matter of this age.
There are those who would
'sidealize" the resurrection of |
Christ. Only Christ's spirit
rose from the grave. His appear
ances were only spirit appear
anees, all a sort of seance. A grea'
deal of modern Christianity"
seems thus mixture of oriental
philosophy, universalism, spirit
ualism, and what-have-you built
around Christ.
The disciples were very sure of
a bodily resurrection of Jesus.
They heard His voice. They saw
him. There were the nail prints
and the mark of the soldiers
spear. Jesus could be touched
and handled. Therefore, with this
definite and great fact before us,
and convinced of its truth, let us
not take our manner of living
from those who deny it and whose
philosophy of life is, "Let us eat
and drink, for tomorrow we die"

Pastor, First Baptist Church.

TIENTSIN, August 9 [P.-While the
Japanese Army completed its conquest
OF Northeastern Hopeh Province from
China today japanese administrators
moved slowly toward establishment
OF permanent civil government that
would ignore Chinese claims to soy

A japanese brigade of 5000 men
marched into the City of Peiping
yesterday with so trucks, 10 heavy and
light tanks and considerable cav
airy, took the ancient capital of
China's Manchu Emperors under its
protection and made it, for all prac-
tlcal purposes, a Japanese city.
The japanese troops, commanded
by Maj. Gen. T. Kawabe, paraded
along the boulevards and under arches
OF triumph that proclaimed imperial
China's glories, then the various units
deployed throughout the city, taking
up their garrison duties.
In Tientsin, army headquarters of
the Japanese who have wrested North

Secretary Ickes appears to be WIN

partially eclipsed in the last year or

Low-rent housing projects held

argued in the past that P. w. AS ex-

the same kind.

The sharp-spoken Chicasoan has
traded verbal blows with cabinet off,

from Nanyuan. south of Peiping, and
1000 from Kupeikow, on the Man.

Chinese said the japanese were

quiet prevailed in the area south of

A Japanese Army Headquarters

Japanese had no fear of a Chinese

Should there be such a campaipn
however, he said, Japan would quickly
tand forces at Tsingtao and cut
Chinese military connections between
the northern coastal regions and
Nanking.
Light Chinese japanese skirmishinp
also was reported from the north. 30

Chinese officials at Nanking declared
their willingness to negotiate, provided
that conditions laid down by Gen.

cepted as basis.
Those conditions were: A settlement
must not infringe on Chinese territor-

Cnahar political council; restrictions
must not be placed on the positions
held by the Chinese 29th Army.
