Living In Heaven Now

On the calendar we are in the
midst of the Easter season. In our
Bible study we are in the midst
of the Sermon on the Mount. Have
the two any connection ? Apparent
ly not, some would say Easter
celebrates something that happen
ed to Jesus. The Sermon on the
Mount is something for us to work
out, pattern for living Christ
assembled to heaven but we are here
on earth. He lives above the sky,
not in any world we could reach
with a space-ship but in the spirit
world of heaven. We live under
clouds, real clouds with rain in
them.
In fact, living here on earth 1--WE
think makes the Sermon on the
Mount even harder to live by. If
we were in heaven, now E. But at
that point the Apostle Paul breaks
in. You are in heaven, he says. Oh,
but I can't be, you say. I'm not
dead even. Yes you are, he replies:
"You have died, and your life is hid
with Christ in God"

THE CHURCH FOR ALL :.
ALL FOR THE CHURCH

The Church is the greatest factor on earth for
the building of character and good citizenship
1t is storehouse of spiritual values Without
strong Church, neither democracy nor civilization
can survive There are four sound reasons why
every person should attend services regularly and
support the Church. They are: G) For his
own sake (2) For his chiIdren's sake. ~ For
the sake of his community and nation. (4) For
the sake of the Church itself, which needs his
moral and material support Plan to go to
church regularly and read your Bible daily.

posed by Senator Williams,
Republican of Delaware, to
strike out the House language.
Compromise Reached
House and Senate conferees
compromised on all except that
one difference in recommend
ing adoption of a $4,84r,914,000
measure for operations of the
two departments during the
fiscal year beginning July l..
But the Senate on Monday
voted 1925, insisting that the
Williams amendment be in
cluded and requesting another
conference.
House leaders as well as Ap-
preparations Committee mem
berS have not yet disclosed
what they will do. They show
no eagerness to bow to the
Senate in this matter. Many
House members and some Sem
ators contend that House mem
bers- have special problem and
should have this broad leeway
in franking.
Senator Robertson, Demo-
crat of Virginia, who opposed
the Williams amendment as
unnecessary but also opposes
use of the franking privilege for

bility of a postal shutdown un-

General Franking Not Issue
The wrangle does not in

Post Office Department out of
general tax revenues. The long
established practice is defended .

the franking privilege. The term
Junk mail" generally describes
letters and cards addressed
only to the occupant" of
designated dwelling, Office or
other establishment.

new church. And we are happy to
call them our Jewish neighbors and
friends.
