GOD IN THIS
WORLD

On June 18th, Omaha was honor
ed to have one of the worlds lead
ing Negroes. This parsonage was
DR.. L. X. Williams, president of
the National Baptist Convention.
The most challenging thought inn
pressed me to get a newer and
stronger grip on God.
1--WE are living in a changing
world and there will probably em-
erge a new economic order out of
our present crisis. There is nothing
upon which we rely expecting per-
manent satisfaction"
OF course, the speaker concluded
that we need God and cannot ex-
ist without Him. | am Of the opin-
ion that, though We have tried
and many are trying new doctrines
and methors, unless we repent and
become converted as children they
shall perish. By being converted we
may have a change of heart and
mind about life, our relationship
to our fellow man and salvation.
The life and teaching of Jesus is
the best and only solution to our
problem, but these must be ap-
piled in our individual lives and
group life. We must live, act and
thust what we claim to believe.
We hope that every true Me-
thodist was inspired to be more
devoted as they probably oelebrat-
ed the birthday anniversary of John
Wesley on June 18th. If each
branch would cease trying to exist
as a church within itself and en-
deavor to be a real "Holy Club" as
the Wesley brothers formed that
of itself would create the greatest
revival of our lives and times. John
Wesley's intention primarily was
to bring about a spiritual awaken
ing so that is what is needed now
and methodist, the challenge is ours
