pentitost Church
OF Jesus Christ
BY TILLIE TURNER

over our great city the past two
weeks, and God sent His blessing
down upon all that waited upon
Him for their healing. Thirty or
more Penticostal churches through
out the valley sponsored this great
meeting. It is a miracle how Elder
Roberts can come to our city in
the strength of the Lord and in
spire such beautiful fellowship.
know all present noticed how very
quiet everyone was.
There are other great spiritual
meetings here every year. Many
come seeking thir healing for both
body and soul and go away re-
joicing. We could hardly hear the
speaker for there was to much
noise outside, although the loud
speaker was used.
We should take great pride in
all of the spiritual meetings, and
if we go seeking a blessing, then
we will always be inspired and
get something beneficial for our
| Christian lives in our minister's aid
/ and training union. We learn many
good things that will help us every
day. Our lesson for this week was
taken from Matt. 25:1-12, oil in
our vessels. The Kingdom of Jesus
in His great wisdom is dividing the
two foundations holy and unholy.
John preaching in the wilderness
told the people to repent for the
kingdom of heaven was at hand.
John knew that Jesus mission here
on earth was to begin. He came
to devide all that would obey Him
| from those who refused, and in
this chapter Jesus is laying a par
able for us. The saints of God are
ready at all times, and when He
come for us He will find us with
oil in our vessels and our lamps
shining bright, because we are wise
virgins, if our desire is to go back
| with Him when He comes then
! without doubt we must be pos
SCISSORS of this oil that Jesus is talk
ing about. For this oil is a symbol
of the holy ghost. When we have
this oil then we have Jesus, for
Jesus is that something within that
makes us wise virgins, and go
through the storms of life.
When the world seems against
U.S. then do we always have the
power from this vessel within TO
rebuke Satan and drive him away.
We are wise vessels unto God for
we have built our house upon a
solid rock and that rock is Jesus.
We also stand in bold authority
upon this rock, and look the whole
world in the face, for we owe not
any many, for Jesus paid it all.
Therefore we stand in protection
of His great love. Jesus left His
mansion above only for this cause
alone, that we may have our YES
sells clean unto honor, and be par
takers of His divine nature by
adoption into the royal family.
JESUS will not see us in the dark.
We have to let our lights shine
out. Even passing through the val
ley of the shadow death our lights
must shine out Shine out all the
way from earth to heaven, for
Jesus is there with us. We are
chaste virgins before the Lord.
Heb. 1:9, says, thou has loved
righteousness and hated inequality;
therefore God, even tiny God, has
anointed thee with the oil of glad
ness above thy fellows.
Bishop Loring, often in his teach
ings tells us we can't escape trials
and tribulationS in this world for
they will come upon us no matter
how high you are in the Lord but
Jesus will bless us if we go through !
then we will find a mountain Of
troubles moved away and we will
have victory over what has
troubled us. / so often hear him
tell us to stand up in Jesus, for
