Two werses from the 86th Psalm (9, 10), provide the Golden Test: “All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name. For thou art great and doest wonderous things; thou art God alone.’ Bible selections include the following from Psalms (111:7): “The works of his hands are verity and judgement;' all his command- ments are sure.” Correlative reading from “Science and Health with Key to the. Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy include: “A material world implies a mortal mind and man a creator. The scientific divine creation declares immortal Mind ~ = universe created by God’ Pp. le Cems Of Thought , GIFTS Material gifts and pastimes tend to obliterate the spiritual idea in consciousness, leaving one alone and without His glory. Mary Baker Eddy. Every good gift and every per- fect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. —James 1:17 A little given seasonably ex- uses a great gift. —George Herbert.

Among the great philosophers, Plato and Aristotle stand out pre- eminently above most others and “|in the field of ethics and politics Aristotle still stamps the thinking of leaders in either field. At one time he had a thousand men at his disposal, scattered throughout Asia and Greece collecting material for his natural history. Political and natural science began with him. H. G. Wells lists him as one ~ |of the greatest men in history. It is strange that H. G. Wells, the historian and one whe dees | not confess to being a Christian, should place Jesus as the great- | est man in history. Perhaps it | is because Jesus introduced a different kind of teaching and an unusual message. He said, “Seek ye first the Kingdom of Ged,” and “Whosoever will save his life shall lose it.” Thi: 1s re volutionary since kings and em- perors had become great in pre- portion to their ability to take of this world’s goods. The message of giving has wrought a perman- ent change in the lives and think- life of the people, Jesus’ message was universal in character with ne limifations of time or place. This Great Teacher accumulated nothing for himself, He built up ne temporal empire to tumble down and crumble with time, but he did start men thinking and the world is different because of his message, with all the vigor end ey that has persisted after mM.

Touchton Will Offer 2nd Sermon In Series On “Advent” ‘Annunciation’ Rev. Simmons’ Theme Sunday Ley Memorial Methodist Church, Truman Avenue and Georgia St., announces the following services and meetings for Sunday, Decem- ber 7. Sunday School 9:45 a. m., morning worship 10:50, Methodist Youth Fellowship choir rehearsal, supper, and evening meeting 5:00 to 7:15 p. m. “The News Magazine of the Screen” will be shown at 8:40 in the evening. At the morning worship hour the j pastor, the Rev. Eldon Simmons, has chosen for the sermon topic “The Annunciation.” This is the first in a series of three Christ- mas sermons to be given during the Christmas season. At 7:30 evening hour the choir will sing “Just For Today,” and Holy Com- munion will be observed. During the week the schedule includes the regular mid-week wor- ship service at 7:30 Wednesday evening, and the semi-monthly meeting of Ley Memorial Metho- dist Men on Friday night at 7:30, That which is given with pride and ostentation is rather an ambi- tion than a bounty. —Seneca. Presents keep friendship warm. — Proverb. Active plant material such as leaves contain about 90 per cent water, “Stagnant and Stymied.” Those whe have stood around a nant pool after the flood waters have receded remember quite well the slime and stench of de- | caying vegetable and ..animal matter. Such @ condition is un- pleasant and unhealthy. No one cares to live in such an enviro- ment. However nature is gener- ous in wiping out the unpleasant and unhealthy conditions of life if proper rules are followed. Car- rien scavengers of land and sea and air soon dispose of ail fetid material and with the sunshine | comes an exhilerating cleansing which makes the whole world | bright and beautiful. No matter | how stagnant and stymied a sit- vation may be, the forces of God tegether with these ef man can make this @ peaceable and a livable world. Miss Martha Morris, the organ- ist will play for the Prelude Sun- . “i Wonder as I Wan- der” an Appalachian Carol. The Anthem for the morning service is, “The Holy City’ by Adam. The Offertory s Praver™ by Malotte and the soloist is Mrs Dennis Dreesmaa The pastor of the First Metho-, dist Church, the Rev. J, Paul Touchton, will preach the second in a series of sermons on Sunday morning for the Advent season. The topic will be Jesus, Son of God, Son of Man. Jesus being the Son of God became the Son of Man that we might have faith and thus be enabled to become the Sons of God. Since he was both God and man he was called by both titles Son of God and Son of Man. Christians cherish very dear- ly the fact that Jesus was God’s invasion of history that we might come to know God and thus come to have that abundant way of life. More is made of Christmas than any other of our holidays but too often it is not in harmony with God’s revelation of Himself to us. At the morning service the choir under the direction of Mr. Earl Anderson will sing “Prepare ye the Way of the Lord.” - Garrett. Mr. Wilbur Phipps will sing a solo: “I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say.” - Harris. He will be accompanied by Mr. David Moody. At the Evening worship hour the Holy Communion will be admin- istered. The pastor's meditation will be “In Jesus Was Life And Light.” The choir will sing “I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes.” -Nor- man. Visitors and service men will find a cordial welcome at this friendly old church.

But how and where can life- | giving truth be found? | | Public Address by W. A. ELROD Rep. of Watchtower Society SUN., DEC. 7, 3 P.M. KINGDOM HALL | 1218 PETRONIA ST. KEY WEST, FLA. All Kingdom-Seekers Welcome The lesson today reveals the great Teacher largely because of his message. Jesus was preaching from a boat as a pulpit on the Lake Galilee. The people were pressed closely about him to get every word. There is no involved theology which generally leaves one cold, but. in the three para- bles he is talking about their own experiences and lesson_re- mains in their minds and has been the source of material for the Sweetest Story ever told. He says, “The Kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man that sowed good seed.” The of God is the rule of Gor in the hearts of man and exists here and now, not in the faroff fture. After the multitude left the disciples asked, “Explain to us the parable of the tares in thhe field.” The lesson explains that the ‘‘Sower” is thhe Son of man and after the wheat is sown the enemy sows the tares which is the bea.ded darnel, a poisonous grass hardly distinguishable from wheat bat is easily separated when it comes into ear. It can be seen that if the tares were harvested with the wheat and ‘made into bread it would have been poisonous. For that reason, when the grain is ripe and more easily separated, the tares are pulled up and burn- ed. A question naturally arises in our minds when we see so much evil in the world, why does Ged allow all this? Jesus is net pre- Pounding @ theory to account for this when he says “an enemy hath done this,“ because it is not according to the perfect will of God. This is simply Ged’s way of dealing with evil while we might destroy good snd preduc- tive grain by trying to get rid of the evil in our midst. The healthy corn has nothing te fear from the evil.
