SENECA LAKE

Seneca Lake, June 4-This may
be our last news reporting for
time, however, we will be back with
some new receipts, and cooking on
the front burners.
My first lecture program may be-
gin in West Lake, Mich, with the
Apostolic and Union people.
This is a 20-acre camp meeting
ground, and will begin on June Is
to July 9Th, from here I may go into
Maine and be connected with two
large camp meetings there.
Il will go where He wants me to
CO.. 1T is His will be done, HE
will lead me wherever l CO." We
leave everything up to the Lord.
Is Christ divided?" l Cor. I:I9.
Divisions are the result of a spirit
that divides. This cannot be the
Spirit of Jesus Christ; for in His
Spirit, we are all one.
Denominations have made void
the law of Christ; Oh Lord Thy
professed followers have made void
Thy prayer, it is time for Thee to
work. God is already at work. ONE
is Gods order. However, God wants
His people to be free. Free to tell
the truth as they see it, free to
think, free to ask questions, to ex-
change views and change views and
practice as new light necessitates
change to reman honest.
For the law having a shadow of
good things to come, and not the
very image of things, Heb. I0:1.
On the day of PentecoSt when they
were in the upper room, they all
became of one mind Christians
have drifted from the day of Pente-
cost.
Denominations have become judg-
ment seats, and are deciding who
will be saved. They have lost the
view that Christ will judge the
world. They have showed the Bible
to one side, and using doctrine.
Christ says, "All in Christ are one",
this is His law. Mans law will fail.
The people are delighted over the
sugar outlook and may have been
making cakes, the first for some
time.
The fox has dropped out of the
spotlight; now is the time to remove
the bounty on them. AS is it useless
to kill game this is doing no dam
age. It is possible that the fox rabies
scare was fifty percent just alarm.
People under strain are liable to 60
off half cooked and injure them
selves.
Big fish are being caught in the
Lake, but none have been reported
above the 33 lb'er that was caught
this season. Taxpayers are inter
eSted in lower taxes, and quit fl
nancing foreign countries. Why not
look out for U. S. citizens first?
Foreign countries have been look
ing out for themselves now for some
time, and doing their own thinking,
and what condition has it gotten
them into. Are we to continue to
encourage them to follow in their
own old foot steps.
Is it not time to call a halt on for
eign spending and shipping?
Success of the COP will depend
on their attitude toward the working
man. COP dropped out of the spot
light for several years on account
of their attitude toward the rich,
and their wanting large amount of
money piled up in the treasury, idle
dollars, also other reasons too num-
erous to mention.
People in these days are thinking
faster, it takes them less time to
make up their minds. So, it will
only require few errors for COP
to make to shove them back into
utter oblivion, to remain the rest
of their days; have they learned
the lesson
People are forgetting party, and
looking for the man. The party one
belongs to does not make him what
he is.
Keep and hold onto your faith in
the Lord, regardless of your faith
in man, Man cannot save you. Learn
to look out for your own soul, only
you can save it.
Remain Journal readers, it is good
reading. Bethel Bates, D. D. |
