"Ed" DICK 676-9633 standard Oil company ot California NEWS AND VIEWS FROM THE FRIENDLY CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE Is it too wonderful to believe? That God loved you so much that He gave His only son (Jesus Christ) to die for you. God's Word, the Bible, reveals all truth necessary to your sal vation and eternal fellowship with Him in a beautiful place called Heaven. How do we know God's Word is true? The unity of the Bible has astounded many. This Holy Book was written over a period of fourteen hundred years in three languages by forty men from various backgrounds. Yet the stories agree like a glove fits the hand. "The New Testament is in the "Old" concealed and the Old Testament is in the "New" revealed". The frequent quot ing of Old Testament events by Christ and His disciples attest to their authenticity. The Bible gives an ethic, a challenge, a dynamic, a high concept of heaven, and a logic far superior to the teachings of other religion. In all the writings of the Scrip ture a common chord is well emphasized all men have sinned; yet God loves man: man is not able to pay the debt of sin he accumulates; but God sent Jesus Christ to the. World to suffer and die as the Divine sin-offering for Man's sin; all who be lieve in and entrust their lives to Jesus Christ are forgiven, and delivered from the penalty and power of sin. The Bible abounds with accounts of physical, mental and moral healings. Christ still transforms lives today. It is wonderful and yet true! ALWAYS FIRST QUALITY " V A! T4t 1 LADIES' PANTS SALE! REG.
