mountains of Ararat." Genesis ga.
o.-Do you think Jacob will be
saved?
Alt is written in Luke 1928, of
certain workers of iniQuity, aye
shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and
Jacob, and all the prophets, in the
kingdom of God, and you yourselves

o.-Does the Bible claim that il
10 inspired?
A.-The Bible uses such phrases
as thus saith the Lord" or "God
said" about $500 times. In 2 Sam
uel 23:2, David said: The Spirit of
the Lord spake by me, and His
word was in my tongue"
o.-My friend tried to tell me that
we will observe a special day of
worship In the new earth TO come.
That isn't true, is it?
Allow about Isaiah 1922. %?
For as the new heavens and the
new earth, which will make, shall
remain before Me, saith the Lord,
so shall your seed and your name re-
main And it shall come to pass,
that from one new moon to another.
and from one sabbath to another,
shall all flesh come to worship be-

A-The earth is to be purified

redeemed. Revelation 21;1, 5: And

earth: for the first heaven and
the first earth were passed away;
and there was no more sea.
And He that sat upon the throne
said, Behold l make all things new.
And He said unto me, Write: for
these words are true and faithful"
The end Of the world refers TO the
end Of this age OF sin and death.
not the end Of this earth as planet.
God made this earth TO be inhab-

that formed the earth and made it;
He hath established 1t, He created
1t not in vain, He formed it to be

Observations

GREECE IgBEhI nWH@ zWEEHHE
Many are called, but few are
chosen.
So many young students get
discouraged after trayeAng a
long way on the journey because
they have not attained the goal
for which they aimed. This is
usually because the student
hears a chosen, or accepted per-
former, and straightway resolves
to do the same as that perform
er. Seldom Go they stop to con-
slider the road Travelled to reach
the position attained. No artist
can succeed without great APP
plication, regardless of natural
aptitude. All of our actions are
the result of habit. The per-
former must acquire the habit
Of performing, and the more he
practices the stronger becomes
the habit Of performing If ne
practises correctly, he forms the
habit of performing correctly,
and, believe 1t OF not, good ha-
bits are as hard to break as bad
ones. Now, if you have the urge
to perform for the edifcation of
the public, try your performance
en- a few of them and increase
your work to meet the demand
for your services. If the public
likes you, the public will de
mand you, and you will be one
Of the chosen. Every performer
cannot make Symphony Hall.
It is natural for you to think
that you are good, but you are
biased-prejudiced in your own
favor. Don't blame the public,
and accuse them CT not appre-
ciating you. Examine yourself
honestly, and you will probably
find something which will ex-
plain the public's wanting very
little Of you. Try self examin-
alton first.
