Mature Thoughts

One of the thieves erucifed with Jesus modesty asked
to be remembered by him when he came into his Kingdom
He was not sefopninated and recognized Jesus az peR
the Christ therefore assured he would that very
day be with him in his kingdom which is paradise
The other thief not given any such assurance De
cause he was obrusve and seopnonated to recognize
who Jesus really is His attitude towards Jesus smut
him off from him.
If you suffer hard things to bear, it does not
always mean that you will have to suffer them unto
death And endure great trouble because OF being in
full accord by word and deed with the sounobtrusive
Jesus and the so just law Of God; thus il is
to have three at your call when in extremity unless
you happen to he the Father the son. or the
Holy Ghost
To be guilty and endure great trouble because of it
and then to admit the trouble was deserved is
to have three at your call when in extremity ana
will to enable you to triumph yourseJesus
alone The test is your ability to suffer hard things
in order that you may to the place of
being in accord with Jesus and the just law of
the Golden Rule by word and act
Some have to be taken from this life before they
will admit that the other fellow has endured great trouble
because of the belief in Jesus who put the whole
law of God into sentence when he spoke the
Golden Rule Only then will he to confess and
repent that he has not kept the law of the Golden
Rule because of his obrsve towards others and his self
opinionatedness
Regardless each is to be given another chance to
recover himself according to the promise of God given to

At the same time, he adds. he

Gil of Churches and similar groups,
and avoids controversial doctrinal
differences which have been used
to divide denominations and
groups.
One of the objections to revival
campaigns among the more re-
served Protestant bodies has been
their alleged emotional and often
bizarre character. Another is that
revival preachers often ignore the
relation of religion to social and
other questions in which the
churches are said to have a valid
interest.
Despite these reservations, lead
ers of major Protestant denomina-
tions who distinguish between
evangelism and revivalism, with
its more emotional and impromptu
appeal, are apparently taking the

Regarded as especially signif

Another indication of the cur

the growing popularity of 31-year-

In Los Angeles last fall. one
thousand evangelical Protestant

Sentinel:
Many folks belive that there is
wonderful opportunity for someone
with adequate finances to establish
a shuttle bus service west of Rock
: vile, making connection with the
Rockville buses and going through
Washington Grove, Gaithersburg
and Damascus, returning through
Laytonsville, Washington Grove,
and Gaithersburg to Rockville and
other local areas.
Stations wagons or small buses
should work out very well at a
minimum expense, at least for a
beginning. If such service were re-
liable as to the vehicles and. de-
pendable as to schedule, patronage
would be built up over a period
Of time as the people in this area
become assured of such service.
Anyone with foresight can certain
ly realize that the continuous driv-
ing of private car becomes a
nuisance owing to the difficulty of
parking adjacent practically all
shopping and business areas. With
proper advertising and publicity
and constant reminders to the pub
lie, under the supervision of some
one with a little imagination and
forethought, as well as business
ability, there should be established
an enyiable and profitable business
also providing a very much needed
public service.
The area west of Rockville is
rapidly developing, and anyone pro-
viding such local service west of
Rockville as far as Damascus
would be entering a field which has
tremendous possibilities for the flu
ture. Adequate service would be
greeted with tremendous enthusi.
asm by the people in this area but
proper steps should be taken to
