BY REV. FRANK CLARENCE LOWRY FOR AMP

heartened when tested this
is your time when Jesus steps in;
Satan's outlook to him, may ap-
pear ever so promising . but
if you stay on your knees, he
cannot win.
8. So give forth the very best
in daily service Satan can
come just so near; let God see
sincerity in your actions, and at
no time you need have any fear.
9. For right is might, and can
not fail, though all hell its do
minions employ; as long as one
keeps close to God, Satan cannot
annoy.
10. The only influence one must
shun is Satan's diabolic schemes
to make a man think he is more
than he is, with his mesmerism of
fantastic dreams.
! IL. 1t is this .reachery o Man
| to which every human being is
exposed and to those who
think they can double-cross God
and serve Mammon too, old Satan
is saying "just continue these
false moves, my man, and in the
end I'll Fire YOU"

AME CHURCH
DISTRICTS
CONTRIBUTE
$533,741.96 TO
WILBERFORCE

WILBERFORCE, 0. - (ANP)
Five episcopal districts of the
AME church contributed $685.
741.96 for the operation of Will
berforce university here, accord
ing to a quadrennial report re-
leased this week by DR.. Charles
L. Hill, president of the univer-
sity.
The AME church has been the
sole support of Wilberforce since
1947 when the state of Ohio with
drew its funds and formed Cen.
trail State college adjacent to the
96-year-old institution.
The quadrennial report also
disclosed that the church raised
$4,000 for the current expenses
of Payne seminary and $131, 900
toward the seminary's building
fund.
With $1O,965 received from the
department of education and
board of trustees, together with
100000 provided from fees and
private donations the total amount
showed a sum in excess of 81 ,000,-
900 for the operation of Wilber-
force over the four year period,
the report stated.
In 1948, the church enlarged
Wilberforce university support,
and sent five of its bishops to di-
rect district support. Five dis
tricts were included in what was
called the First Education Area.
They are the first, the third, the
fourth, the fifth, and the 18th.
Here is a breakdown on the con-
tributions of those districts dur
ing the past quadrennial:
First, $105, ,007.25, D. Ward
Nichols, bishop; third, $135, 1859 AS,
A. ]. Allen, bishop; fourth, $685.
064.75, George w. Baber, bishop;
fifth, $112,05O, D. Ormonde Walk
er, bishop and 18th, $56,5OO, John
H. Clayborn, bishop.
Wherefore is in the midst OF
five year plan to raise $780,
600. 1t will end in 1856 in time
for the ufriversity's centennial.

YOU'RE FIRED

l. This is a phrase now COM
monty heard that leaves some
persons much disturbed.
2. But at times there are those
to whom these words are spoken,
who are bigger than the one ap-
pearing as the spokesman.
8. The one thing that really
counts is to know that all re-
quirements have been met in
ones commission, leaving no
cause for misapprehension.
4. For the one who has done the
firing without just cause, will be
recognized as one in error, and in
the future be made to pause.
5. The person set aside is not
always at fault ill-judgement,
prejudice and meaness can't al

6. For, the blameless Christ in
His day, facing such accusers as

thieves on the cross; but His
hanging there only glorified Him,
and made the case for His ac-

low herself to be disturbed in her
teaching by isolated private op-
inions to the contrary.
The question became actual
again at the time of the RefOrma-
tion when the Reformers, after
considerable backing and filling,
finally decided to exclude the
books from their Bibles, and Pro-
testantism has since followed suit.
The reason for doing so must in
the last analysis be that they were
rejected by the Jewish doctors in
the first century after Christ But
then the question must be faced
who gives us our Bible, Christ
or the Synagogue?

Cardinal Explains
Church Attitude
On Works OF Art

LONDON - (NC) - Sacred
art is means to an end and not
an end in itself" His Eminence
Bernard Cardinal Griffin reminded
as he opened an exhibition of the
Guild of Catholic Artists and
Craftsmen here.
1T has always been the role of
the Church to encourage true art
and to watch over the interests,
not merely of artists but also of
the faithful for whom the product
of the artists is means of draw
ing nearer to Cod" The Archbish-
op of Westminster declared. "The
Church has always been the patron
of the arts and certain very clear
duties have been laid down for
the Bishops"
The Cardinal recalled that the
main purpose of the recent de-
cree Of the Sacred Congregation of
the Holy Office on sacred art was
to recapitulate the traditional
teaching of the Church and the
provisions of Canon Law.
While being conservative. the
Church does not try to frustrate
the creative instincts of artists, the
Cardinal said
Many styles Of architecture are
now used for ecclesiastical build
ing which conform to present-day
standards and requirements but
which would not have been the
work OF artists and architects in
centuries past" he stated.
over 20 selected works by liy-
inc Catholic artists and craftsmen
are being featured during the
month-long exhibition at the Royal
Institute of British Architects.
They include paintings, Sculptures
and the works OF silyersmiths.

scter OF books which Palestine was
prepared to reject. And this is
just what the Dispersion did. The
seven books mentioned above form
part OF the so-called Septuagint, a
translation of the Old Testament
into Greek which was begun about
the middle of the third century
&c. and which very quickly be-
came the Bible of extra-P Palestinian
Judaism. In the Septuagint, it is
important 10 note, the seven are
not a kind of appendix or after
thought; they are interspersed
among the others with no hint that
they we're considered to be of a
different, non-inspired. character.
Some Definitions
Judaism did in the end get
around to defining the canon -
to declaring that these books, and
these alone have God as their au-
thor. This was done by the Synod
of Jamnia which was held about 90
100 AID. On this occasion, the sew
en- books we're excluded from the
list of sacred writings. But in the
meantime something had happened
which voided the decision of all
authority. Christ had come and es-
tablished his Church, the Church
had supplanted the synagogue and
Gods voice was no longer heard
in the responses of the Rabbis.
Hence it was from Christ and his
Church. and not from the Synago-
que, that Christians were to learn
what was Scripture.
And what did Our Lord and the
Apostles answer TO the question:
There was no explicit statement.
since at the time none was called
for. But the Apostolic teaching
was clear from the fact that the
Bible of the early Church was the
Greek Septuagint, not the Hebrew
Scriptures. This is absolutely in
controvertible. BY far the great
majority of the Old Testament quo
tationS found in the New follow
the Septuagint rather than the He
brew The few exceptions are re-
stricted almost entirely to the Cos
pei according to St Matthew, which
constitutes a special case which
we cannot enter into here.
Now it will be remembered that
in the Septuagint the seven books
are so intermingled with the 9th
ers that there is not the slightest
question of their scriptursl charac-
ter II, however, Christ or his
Apostles had taught that they were
not scripture but merely pious
reading. il would have been the
duty of the Church to warn the
faithful against falling into a fate
ful error. She would have had to
say: BE on your guard here, Gene
sis, Exodus, Leviticus, etc, are in
