We have all experienced moments of
INSIGHT
In our Lives.
These experiences may be compared
To what occasionally happens to an amateur at sports.
A "Slmday golfer will sometimes get off a great drive.
An inexperienced basketball player will sometime make a
basket from thirty feet out.
So it is with all of us when we gain INSIGHT in our lives.
The fact that it happened once can mean that it could happen
again.
Each person has the capacity of insight. Search for the in-
sight within your life.

SEEDS FROM
THE SOWER
By Michael A. Guido
This morning a young
man exclaimed, "Become a
Christian now? Arc you cra-
zy?" Then he asked, "Why
should I become a Christian
while I'm still young?"
"Because," l replied,
"Christ, the Founder of
Christianity, was a young
Man." It was not an old
worn out man who was wea-
ry with life who died for our
sins
The supreme achievement
in human history was
wrought by One who never
reached middle age. At an
age when people are begin-
ning to do their great work,
He closed His career with the
words, "It is finished." Just
before He completed His
mission, it was said of Him
in Psalm 110:3, "Thou hast
the dew of Thy youth."
It was to men in the dew
of youth that our Lord Jesus
said, "Follow Me!" And it
was with these young men
that He triumphed. They
revolutionized life, put a new
heart in man and a new
face on society, and founded
the kingdom of God.
They were not high born
but heaven born. They did
not have possessions, but
they had the priceless re-
sources of youth; and they
yielded all of self for all of
time to Christ. Will you?

Hoskins urged delegates tolook

Now for Divine Rulership."
"Nationalism has been the
scourge of our time," Hoskins
declared. "Mankind has cho-
sen to substitute worship of
the state for worship of God,
and it has resulted in blood-
shed and misery."
Hoskins urged Christians to
avoid getting the "mark of the
beast." He explained this is a
symbol the Bible uses to in-
dicate one is a supporter of
worldly governments in opposi-
tion to God.
"One gets this mark by lend-
ing a hand of cooperation to
political organizations, or act-
ively taking part in its poli-
tical controversies, campaigns,
elections and nationalistic
plans," he said.
