woman whose husband is ungodly! There, the poverty-stricken young­ sters! And over there, the poor peas­ ants across Europe! Look at the be­ wildered ones of the jungles and masses of the Orient! They all wait for one glorious day of redemption! Read it! Believe it! “ I would not have you to be ig­ norant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope” (1 Thess. 4:13). When loved ones die, don’t be bewildered, don’t say, what do we have to live for now. It may only be a few weeks and we will see them again. Look at this: “ For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again [and we do], even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the com- ing of the Lord shall not preceed them which are asleep.” Let me remind you, man cannot annihilate the entire human race as many claim. Read your Bible! W e will not obliterate all mankind within the “ next 40 years” as Brit­ ish Philosopher Bertrand Russell has said. It is impossible to an­ nihilate all humanity before Jesus cornés, for according to the Word of God, some will be “ alive.” Re­ mind again the editors, writers, thinkers, theorists, humanitarians, that the Bible declares that some will be “ alive!” But what comfort if you are not sure you’re ready to meet God? You say, “Mr. Rosell, how is a man to be ready?” You don’t become a Christian by your own efforts! It’s the redemp­ tion o f the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. There must be active faith in Jesus Christ, God’s Son! Some will be saved, and some will be lost. You ran’t fool God. The true test— the final analysis — the eventual inescapable moment when you must meet God is based on these demands, “ That if thou shall confess with thy mouth that Jesus is the Lord, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved” (Rom. 10:9). We know which way the nations are moving — the trends and the trials but do we all know how to trust God for His plan and His personal salvation? END.
