need the power and the work of
the New Birth in our lives. Jesus
said, "Ye must be born again

REGENERATION In Everyday Life
That which is born Of the flesh
is flesh-and that which is born
Of the Spirit is spirit we must
be born again"
The need of our community and
area is for people to understand
more about Regeneration or being
Born Again. The New Testament
declares Jesus to say: .. | am the
way, the truth, and the life; no
man cometh unto the Father, but
by me"
The plain unadulterated truth is
this: No man is ever saved until
God Almighty does something in
that man only God could ever do
THERE IS NO SALVATION
WITHOUT THE MIRACLE OF
THE NEW BIRTH. This New
Birth will produce such a change
in a man that will effect all he
comes in contact with. The Old
Testament describes it this way:
"A new heart also will | give you
and a new spirit will | put within
you. and l will take away the
stony heart out of your flesh, and
| will give you heart of flesh.
And l will put my Spirit within
you, and cause you to walk in my
statutes, and We shall keep my
judgment and do them. AS surely
as God in the realm of physical
nature transforms the grubby
caterpillar into the translucent
butterfly-He has a new birth for
every sinner. Appetites-habits-
desires-goals for living-all will
change, and the rcgencratc man
is a changed person.
We are known as a Christian
land with majority of our popula-
ton belonging to some religious
society vet if we would follow re-
ligiOus principles and statistics we
can only come TO the conclusion
that a lot of people have religion
but not salvation. Our annual per
capita expenditure for school is
$50 Our annual per capita cXpcndi-
turc for all religious purposes is
$50. As a nation we have problem
of 4.588. 600 alcoholics and 3,441000
problem drinkers not including the
so-called social drinker, which all
adds that we consider the business
of alcohol three time more i'm
portant than that of the church. We
have l divorce in every 4 marriages,
and at least 100000 Americans
spend their hard-earned cash on
some game of chance, from the
ladies afternoon canasta sessions
to the neighborhood numbers rack
cts and anywhere from S20,000,000,-
GOO to S40000.OOO,000 is gambled
each year.
We need something more than
a religious show today, more than
an organized sentiment, and for
