"You can't have good law en-

GOSPEL TEMPLE

We were very fortunate TO have
as guest speaker Sunday morning
Clifford Ford the president Of an
Oil firm in Denver, Colorado known
as a Christian business man. His
message was taken from st. Luke
1910 and IL verses. He that is
faithful in that which Is least is
faithful also in much: and he
that is unjust in the least Is I'M
Just also in much. If therefore ye
have not been faithful in the up
righteous mammon, who will com
NIT to your trust the true riches 2"
He expounded on prevaricating
Christians, who profess TO love
God and still rob and steal NAL
achi 3.S, "Will a man rob God 20
Yet we have robbed me in tithes
and offerings" Most Christians
win not rob, cheat or steal from
one another but when we don't
give God a tenth of our earnings,
we're liars when we say we love
God He further emphasized on
the greatest value to man is time
and money Are you using your
time and money for Kingdom
building?
Our visitors were Mrs. Lindsey
Of 751 Bryant Ave. No, Mime
apolis and Mrs. Nellie Van Horn
ISL Marshall, ST. Paul who had
both been sick for the past several
weeks.
Our speaker for Sunday night
was Rev. Mckinley Calhoun of

poral. :,
Death is inevitable, we are all
going to die some time unless
Jesus comes and takes US up
in the rapture. We take it lightly.
We are never ready for it. Moth
ing Is so dark and 50 hopeless
as the home where death comes
in and Christ Is not there.
The lesson for today tells about
a mother who had lost her only
son. She had gone through sorrow
before because sc was a widow.
When Jesus met her following her
son to the grave he stopped her
and said, Weep not" Then Jesus
raised the son form the dead and
returned him to his mother.
Jesus performed more than a
physical miracle here. He Gained
her troubled heart. There win be
sorrow and tears when we loose
dear one but Jesus says" Let
not your heart be troubled.
As this mothers son had died
physically so many mothers sons
have died spiritually. The same
powerful Word that brought the
son back to life can also bring
back spiritual life to those who
are spiritually dead.
In closing Pastor Sunwall quot
ed the 23rd. Psalm His emphasis
was on, YEA. though / walk
