Questionable gospels in
dicate that Jesus Christ gave
his Apostles the power to for
give men their sins. Is there a
single instance recorded in the
New Testament when or where
they did SOP"
AnSwer-St. Paul seems to
have done this as recorded in
II Corinthians 2:10-"Anyone
whom you forgive, I also for
give. What I have forgiven .. .
has been for your sake in the
presence of Christ"
The fact that the acts of the
Apostles in bestowing forgive
ness of sin is not more fire.
quently recorded in the New
Testament would hardly be a
valid argument against the
fact.
Question: What is the bibli-
cal authority for observing
Sunday as the day of worship
as so many Christian people
do?"
Answer: This practice of
many Christians is not based
upon biblical authority. Very
early in its history the Chris
tian church began the practice
of celebrating its belief in the
resurrection Of Jesus Christ on
the first day of the week. The
holy communion or the cele-
bration of the Lords Supper
became a part of this practice.
AS I have said in an earlier
column in this series there still
are Christians who believe in
observing the Sabbath on
Saturday, even though they,
too, are believers in the ReSur-
rection. But the vast majority
of Christians follow the ancient
practice, which dates back to
the 1st century of the Christian
era.

Bible Class Reunion
MARKS 5Oth Year

Mrs. Daisy Hopwood Thour's
Bible class without a.

niversary today.
Some 100 Methodist women,
present and former members
of the Douglas Philathea Bible
Glass, marked its 50th year
with a luncheon at the Kene-
saw Apartments.
Until two years ago the class
had a home in the Douglas
Memorial Methodist Church.
Eleventh and H streets NE. So
many of the original members
moved away, however, that the
church was transferred to
another congregation in 1858.
Instead of disbanding too,
the Bible class remained intact
and has continued to meet
monthly in the homes of its
3e active members, who belong
to several different churches.
Today'S luncheon also hon.
ored Mrs. Thour, of II Critten-
den street NE. The recently
retired furniture store operator
is in her 40th year as president
of the Bible class.
Store Sold
Last September Mrs. Thour
and her brothers. Mason and
Thomas Hopwood. sold Hop
woods Furniture Store at
Eighth and K streets NE. The
store was started by her father
in 1895. Mrs. Thour, now Sc.
had helped operate it since she
was IL.
Despite her full-time activ-
tiles at the store. she has man
aged to remain the moving
force behind the Bible class.
She and -four or five other
girls" started the class on an
informal basis about 1908, she
says. In 1910 the class was
organized formally as part of
Philathea, worldwide fedora
ton of Protestant women's
Bible classes.
The class is not confined to
bible studies. Its members,
ranging in age from 40 to IS,

activities. They work closely
