PILGRIM BAPTIST CHURCH NEWS
On Easter Sunday, our pastor. Floyd h.
Massey. spoke from the topic, The Vic
tory Of the Spirit" He pointed out how
Iesus Christ taught mankind through His
teachinRs death and resurrection that the
way Of force and fighting fire with fire
will not save the world. There must be
the indwelling Of the Spirit Of God.
Ministers have pointed that way 20 con-
gregatOns for centuries. Now that scien-
lists and newspaper cOlumnists are telling
US the same. maybe we will hear. Jesus
showed that goodness is the greatest force
IN the world. There can be a spiritual
victory through US. II we give God n
chance"
