The Source of Temptations
James 1:13-11

In our text for this week, the
word tempted" refers primarily
to solicitation to do evil.
Many times we read in the
news of someone who is quoted
as saying that it was God who
told him (her) to kill or assault
or rob someone else, etc. When
ever we read such articles or
hear someone giving such an
excuse for their wrong doing, we
know that they are lying or they
are not mentally right. God does
not sin nor will He cause others
to sin.
Verse IA of our passage gives
us the true explanation of such
actions. Every man is tempted,
when he is drawn away of his
own lust, and enticed." Lust is
strong desire. 1t can be good
or bad. In our text refers to
those desires which are bad. 1t
is strong desire for something
which cannot be ours morally
or which we do not want to
obtain legally. (Some things may
be obtained legally but not NOR
ally; for instance, another mans
wife, This desire is nourished
and finally results in the COM
mission of sin.

because he and his brother

Hendershot.
The gas well is petering out
and two of the four miles of
pipeline need to be replaced, he
testified. If the MEMBERSHIPS

ed worn out equipment, they
would have to raise rates ten
fold to realize profit, he said.
That would mean rates of $3.50
per thousand cubic feet.

Bible Questions
And Answers
ALBERT #. RANDOLPH

Question: Does the Bible speak
of Heaven as a real place or is
it just something we are in the
habit of believing?
Answer: Certainly the Bible
speaks of Heaven as a place of
definite reality. Heaven is the
home of the Redeemed and
blood-Washed of all ages, and
IS the eternal abiding place OF
the children Of God. In II Cor.
ST. we read, For we know that
if our earthly house of this
tabernacle were dissolved. we
have a building of God, an
house not made with hands,
eternal in the heavens.
Of this same place. is Jesus
speaking in John 14:2 as He SAYS,
In my Fathers house are many
mansions: if it were not SO. |
would have told you. I go to pre-
pare a place for you" The man
sions in this verse are not to be
thought of as luxurious dwell
llngs as of earth, although they
are far more beautiful and grand
than anything that natural eve
has ever seen, but they are to be
thought of as abiding places or
resting places" prepared of
Christ in the home of God for
the followers of God and of
Christ.
Again in Luke 1920 where
Jesus is speaking to the disciples
concerning the fact that they
saw Satan as lightning fall
from heaven says, "Notwith-
standing in this rejoice not, that
the spirits are. subject unto you:
but rather rejoice, because your
names are written in heaven
Again, Paul in speaking of the
patriarchs, says in Heb. 1915,
But now they desire better
country, that is an heavenly"
and Peter speaking in l Pet. IA
of our eternal salvation, saws.
TO an inheritance incorrupti-
bic, and undefiled, and that
fadeth not away, reserved in
heaven for you"
Then again the death-bed ex-
perience of the saints points out
to us the reality of Heaven as
they speak of the angels coming
to take them home, or of the
beautiful music or the beautiful
city they themselves see when
they are about to pass away.
These things are indeed real.
Heaven is indeed a place of
reality, far more real than the
things about us for they are
temporal and passing, but heav-
en- is eternal. 1t is prepared
place for prepared people, and
II VIII be to your eternal advan-
tage to prepare now for this
eternal city which is the Heaven
OF God prepared for those who
love Him. Seek Him. Live for
HIM and do not allow any one
TO take from you the hope OF
HEAVEN. The Lord bless you.

MISSION of SIN.

By Betty Myers

GENERAL members Of the
- Fairfax County Weayers'
Guild actually grow their own
blankets and suits. They have
their own docks Of sheep
which. they say. not only pro-
vide wool but make effective
lawn mowers"
The guild was organised
In 1850 by Mrs. Henry Joesting
and Mrs. LATE Allen.
For 10 years. the Joestings
had lived In Alaska, where
she learned weaving at the
territorial university. She re-
calls with amusement that the
students had to weave what
ever happened to be threaded
on the looms, which was
mostly baby blankets. During
the war the Joestings re-
turned TO their country home
near Lorton, Va. Later, she
met Mrs. Allen, who also was
interested In the ancient art.
It was no trick to ind men,
bers for their guild-within
a few weeks they had IL.
With warm wool blankets
and suitings in mind. Mrs.
Joesting started buying sheep
in pairs until she had Is
sheep and one ram. Every
June, she hires a member of
the All Club to shear the
animals. Last year, one Of the
sheep didn't fancy the pros
pect and spiritedly jumped
the fence. No one could catch
her, so she had to swelter all
through the summer In her
heavy coat, which became
dirty and scraggly by winter.
Mrs. Joesting says, That's
one blanket that got away"
