368 O people, gejt so Identified with Jesus Christ that His loss is your loss, and His gain your gain; your pain His pain and your problem for His solution. Now If anybody were to ask me why I have preached this sermon, 1 should have to say. I do not know. And If any body should ask me what result I expect from this sermon, I should still say I do not know. I thought It out in faith, I stood up to preach it In faith; I have preached It in faith. But if any woman goes back to her home today saying, “ I can trust and not be afraid;” and if any man can pick up the burden of life again saying, “ I,can bear it and stand up under it,” then all the pain I felt last week in thinking out the sermon, and all the pain I have suffered while preaching it will not have been in vain. You cannot under stand it now and here. Sometimes I look this church and congregation over when I am alone, and I pray for this one, and the other one, and the next one because I know you cannot understand your life. It is a problem that will drive you mad if you persist in trying to find it out. But just trust! Be the world's fool and God’s wise man and wise woman, and hear Him say to you very often, "What I do thou kriowest not now, but thou shalt know hereafter.” 4&H ifli?

In His Book God warns us concerning the "perilous times” in which we live and certain dangers about us. This is the warning as to apparent education and philosophy: "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and rain deceit, after the, tradition of men, after the rudiments oH he world and not after Christ” (Col. 2:8 ). As to men falling away from the faith the Bible Btates: “ Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils” (1 Timothy 4 :1 ). Tile Remedy What are we to do? The last verse-of the chapter states: “ Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself and them that hear thee.” There is also a warning for those Who say that they do not know whether or not their pastor, their denominational officials higher up, their missionaries that they help to sup port, their church paper, and their Sunday- School literature are orthodox. They seem to forget that they have a Bible •in which this admonition is given: “ But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.

Fiction of Force Character Building “Best” Books The Bells o f the Blue Pagoda By Jean Carter Cochran r „1 This delightful book cannot be -praised too highly. I think 'The Bells of the Blue Pagoda' is the best story of the life in China that has been pUt out thus far. A million copies of it ought to be read by the young people of America. It is true to life— to every phase of life you touch. Nothing is overdrawn. All the characters are true to what has happened in recent years. Everything is true to life."— Isaac Taylor Headland.
