The Buffalo Bills, of Buffalo, N. Y., carried away top honors, with the Clef Dwellers of Oak land County, Michigan, taking second and The Antlers of Hint, Mich., reclining in third spot.

And in I Cor. 12: 13, 18, 21. 25, 27, we read: “For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body. But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body. And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. There should be no schism (division) in the body. Now ye are the BODY Oi* THE CHURCH, and MEMBERS IN PARTICULAR.” The church is here compared to the human body with Christ as its head. An eye separated from the body could never see. How foolish it would be for the hand to say, "I can be just as good a hand all by myself without being fastened to the body.” And yet there are some who believe they can be just as good Christians on their own without becoming members of the church. Some people today are dissatisfied with the churches. They see unfaithful church members in the church and doubt the efficacy of Christianity. But getting to heaven is something like crossing the Pacific. It would be much easier to cross with a boat load of hypo crites than to try to swim across all by yourself. The value of Christianity is seen in the life of Christ which is sometimes but poorly reflected in lives of some who claim to be church members. However Jesus set forth the necessity of joining the church in Matt. 16:19 w'here speaking of the church He says, "Whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” Concerning baptism our text in Corinthians states: “For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body.” Baptism is importan* because it becomes the gateway to the church. The means by which we enter or join the church. The necessity of being baptized is stressed in the words of Jesus in Mark 16:16, “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not sha’l be damned.” At the time of baptism we are “added to the church, as is indi- cated in Acts 2:41, 47, “When they that gladly received his word WERE BAPTIZED: and the same day there were* added unto them about three thousand souls—and the Lord added to the CHURCH daily such as should be saved.” So these and many other Scriptural references stress the neces- sity of being baptized when we come to believe on Christ and at that time, of courser joining the church. This is essential from the standpoint of our own spiritual need and also from the standpoint of Christ’s need for an organized group that can spread Christianity throughout the world as He has commissioned. (See Matt. 28:19,20) One thing that adds confusion to this picture is the fact that there are about 600 different Christian denominations in the world today. This makes it difficult to know which one to join after w’e’ve made our decision to accept Christ and join His church. Here is a problem that should not be settled by just doing as our friends and relatives do or by attending whatever church is closest. There is only ONE church or faith recognized by God al though there are honest and sincere Christians in all churches. Jesus says in John 10:16: “zXnd other sheep I have which are not of this fold: them also must I bring, and they shall hear My voice: and THERE SHALL BE ONE FOLD AND ONE SHEPHERD.” .See also Eph. 4:5). The true fold of the Good Shepherd can only be discovered by honest searching of the Scriptures. Notice what Christ calls vain worship: “But in vain they do worship Mo, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.” Matt. 15:9. Christ wants us to study the Bible for ourselves, laying aside all pre-conceived notions and ac cepting all that we find there even though it points out that we have not been fololwing all of its teachings. Which church shall 1 join? There’s only one answer, and that is to be found in a thourough and prayerful study of the Scriptures. A clue is given in Rev. 14:6-12, which designates the message that is to be proclaimed to al! the world just before Christ comes and identifies the messengers with these words: “Here is the patience of the saints: here are thy that keep the commandments of god. and the faith of Jesus.” And the complimentary text, Rev. 12:17, “And the dragon (Satan) was wroth with the women (the church), and went out to make war with the REMNANT of her seed, which KEEP THE COM- MANDMENTS OF GOD. AND HAVE THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST.” God has had a special people in every age and He identifies His las remnant church as preaching the great pre- paratory message of Rev. 14 and keeping all ten of His command- ments (Ex. 20) and having the faith and testimony of Jesus. Sev- unth-Day Adventists firmly believe that they meet each of these requirements and challenge you to “Search your Scriptures” prayer fully and carefully and determine for yourselves with the aid ol the Spirit what is God’s truth for today.
