blue circle reminds us of God the Father who provides for us. Louise, do you think you can tell us who the red circle represents ? "It stands for the second Person of the Trinity—the Son of God, who offers pardon to those who trust Him as Sav­ iour.” We are to learn today about the third Person of the Trinity—the Holy -Spirit. This green circle has the words “HOLY SPIRIT” written on it. Beneath these words, we find' the word “Power.” The word "Power” is found on page 539 of this dictionary. I hold in my hand a bottle of gasoline.

Modern engines develop great power by using gasoline. We will place this green circle to the left of the triangle. In thinking of the Holy Spirit, we should never forget that He gives power to those who are the children of God by faith'in Jesus Christ, We read_ in Acts 1:8, “Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you." In thinking of the Trinity, let us re­ member that God the Father makes "Provision” for all our needs; that God thè Son offers "Pardon” from sin; that God the Holy Spirit gives “Power” to live and witness, and that the Three are One.

exhortation (vs. 32, 33). It will be noted that the command was for positive obe­ dience, rather than mere negative as­ sent. The instruction to the people was: “Walk in all the ways which the Lord your God hath commanded you,” to find peace and plenty, safety and security, and permanent possession of the land. n . T he C hoice (Deut. 11:26-28) The children of Israel were given a clear-cut choice between obeying and disobeying God. If they would obey, blessing would follow; if they disobeyed, suffering would result. God’s promises of evil are as certain of fulfillment as are His promises of good. This truth has an application for mod­ ern people as truly as for Israel. God’s rich blessing awaits the individual or the community that honors Him; His right­ eous punishment awaits the one that flouts and disobeys Him. God the Crea­ tor has authority over Civic as well as personal affairs, and He will hold lead­ ers responsible who disregard and deny Him this authority. Because of the widespread Idea that making money is the supreme objective of human life, and because of the enormous profit to he acquired in the liquor traffic, civic au­ thorities are tempted to overlook their responsibility to the Creator, and to permit a traffic that ends in commu­ nity downfall. i.ti i j i ) n íj /.¿.no N OHTEOUSnESS EXflLTETHA nRTIOrfc BUT Sin 15 REPROACH TO fiflMPEOPLE’
