Democracy stands In It's great
est danger and the security Of
American people Is most imperil-
led when the constitutional pro-
cess IL by-passed or completely
thwarted
And n we apply that sense OF
perspective referred 10 earlier, we
recognize that the whole picture
OF racial change during the past
year Is not composed only Of these
gloomy aspects. Many OF the
current Developments were In
evitable once the Supreme Courts
decision was handed down and
should have been expected by
thoughtful observers as a neces-
sary. though Rgonizing, phase OF
the emerging maturity OF the
American people.
For people can improve only as
fast as they can learn; the learn
ing process can be Bpeeded, but
people cannot be saved against
their win. Therefore. the very
fact that we have entered this
eliminating phase OF struggle and
suffering can give us a grim kind
OF encouragement akin 20 that

must work his way through a moi

but who sees at the tunnels end

The very emasoulation OF the

devices were employed as a last

Rev. S. A. Thomas. pastor
D. B., reporter

Our deep need is for religious
reality. 1t is easy to fall into the
mistake of the Pharisees whom
Jesus condemned. AS we study the
life of Jesus we notice that there
was special sense of His Faith
er's presence with Him as He
healed, helped and ymoathized
with the sorrowing. May we not
learn from this the secret of re-
igiouS reality.
Our Sunday School activities
are wonderful. 1t is most gloriou.
to note the effect the teaching of
the lessons from Sunday to Sum
day. 1t is beautiful sight to see
the children accepting Christ as
their Saviour. This is encourage
ing to us as teachers. Hands are
high to the superintendent who
are guiding us.
Our morning worship is very
good and, of course, the services
were preceded with baptism
which was inspiring. The SER
mon was taken from End limo
thy, 3rd chapter.
The BTU is becoming more and
more interesting each Sunday.
Let us keep up the attendance.
Try and increase our membership.

The message given by Elder
Fred Parker, our guest speaker
on Sabbath, Feb. %, was refresh
ing to the heart of everyone
present in the morning worship.
His subject, 1.-THE Love of God"
was taken from I John 4:8 and
Romans SIS, Elder Parker said,
Love spreads, it is not narrow
nor is it selfish.
The love Of God goes farther
than just where we stand. The
love of God shed abroad in our
hearts will be shown in our
homes, community, churches, and
everywhere we 60.
He said In order for US to have
this kind of love we must sur
render all to Jesus, and take up
the cross and follow him.
The Illustration given on the
love of Abraham to God when
asked to sacrifice his only son,
cau-ed real heart searching. Elder
Parker is doing great work at
Carver Ranches where they have
a building program for a church.
Bethany gave 500 toward their
building fund. He has presently
done outstanding Evangelistic
work in the Pomloano area. Law
renee Harrington sang beautifully,
ssHow Lovely Are Thy Dwell
ings."
You are invited to worship
with us.

Sis. Ethel Cooper, reporter
School Of Wisdom started at 10
am. The subject, "Signs of The
Times" has a deep meaning. We
may understand Jesus as being
God in the flesh, the Master
Teacher and the fact of his death
on the cross, but we may never
come to understand the deeper
and fuller meanings of these facts
unless we look beneath the sur
face and see their Implications
for our lives.
Many are still asking the Lord
to show us a miracle when the
Lord Jesus Christ is the greatest
miracle of the ages. His birth,
life, teaching, preaching, healing
death, resurrection and ascension
were all miracles of the super
lative kind None could be great
er and yet there are those who
ask, Give us a sign from heav-
en-"
The fast our archbishop re-
queSted us to go on is getting
Sweeter as the days go by. AS a
result of this universal fast, the
Lord began to pour out His spirit
Sunday night in the devotional
service, and everyone had a pow
erful shock of His mighty burn
ing fire.
Let me remind you to listen to
our Voices of Triumph" each
Sunday on station WMBM from
3:15 to pm.
Our prayer for today is: Be
merciful unto me, o Lord, for
cry unto Thee daily.

ed benefited by the lesson. Sub
ject, "Signs of the Times"
At the IL o'clock devotions our

sage. The text was taken from

spirit had its way.
The No. one choir rendered
