King's Business - 1969-06

“ Sodom and Gomorrah.” The grim, joy­ less and intellectually unacceptable views of such pastors cause many to turn from the churches. Such refugees from intolerable religion often go to excess in their search for some meaning in life. Fortunately, Christianity oifers some­ thing better than these bleak alterna­ tives of Puritanism and hell-raising. Christianity rightly understood, is a doctrine of joy, courage, reason, and love. There are Christians who find no attraction to either rigidity or flesh- pots. They have something better to do with their lives. Long Beach NEGATIVE EDITORIALS I have taken THE KING’S BUSI­ NESS for years, and I just love every article except lately the editor must be getting up on the wrong side of the bed. He ranted about the past adminis­ tration and also the Council of Church­ es. I think it would do him good to read and reread John 17. Christ never sepa­ rated us. We do'that. The only way to live as He taught is not to think our church or congregation is better than others. My church believes as the dis­ ciples taught; we refuse no one, no second baptizing; we baptize into Christ. Esther Reger, San Jose, California ENJOY MAGAZINE The time has finally come when I am doing what I have intended to do for a long time — mainly, to write and tell you what a continual source of bless­ ing THE KING’S BUSINESS MAGA­ ZINE is to me, my family, and those to whom I pass it on. We are delighted with it, from the beautiful covers right on through to the end. Dr. Sutherland’s editorials are more than worth the price of the magazine. Mrs. Nick Lehman, Ninilchik, Alaska Although time is at a premium here, I felt I should write to thank you and the unknown donor for the subscription to THE KING’S BUSINESS Maga­ zine. We have enjoyed it thoroughly the past year. Please accept our sincere appreciation. K. L., Kowloon City, Hong Kong APPRECIATE COVERS Just a note of appreciation for the lovely cover photos on THE KING’S BUSINESS. I have framed two of them and given one framed as a gift. A Kansas City Reader THANKS We express our grateful appreciation for co-operation in the forwarding of back number magazines, and for the ad in KING’S BUSINESS soliciting voluntarily your subscribers to forward back numbers; it worked profitably on this end. Hundreds have been received. May the Lord bless as abundantly. One bundle of magazines came from a Mr. Wiebe of San Paulo, Brazil, some from California every few days. Lyln Gregory, Dallas, Texas
