Page $. THE GAZETTE-TIMES. Bible Corner Sanctifying Spirit In Acts 2, we read of the great Pentecost event. It is still a mighty act of God in the life of the Church, for God the Spirit is active in Jta world. He has not abandoned us. He is the source of power promised by the risen Christ 'just before His Ascension. Throughout the course of human history, God has acted mightily. His mighty acts are recorded in Scripture. He acts even now, upholding, sustaining and still creating in this universe, of which man is just a small part. However, man is the highest order and the beloved of the Father. It was for us and for our salvation that He gave His Son, our Lord, the greatest Gift. Mankind wanders through life and creation as a vagabond for the most part. He is on a journey, and for many that journey has no ultimate destination. That lack of purpose or destination results in frustration, fear, and ultimately despair, which is the great anxiety. The holy Church separated often travels that same road only because the Church separated is made up of men and women who have no ultimate destination, who have not found the Burning Fire in their hearts, minds and bodies. i have come to discover that Church gathered, the burning lives of men. women and children, moie now dJ 4-H needs volunteers Population explosions occur in many areas apart from the major spectrum of countries. They occur within organiza tions as well. Still, in keeping with the national trend, often the influx of people far ex ceeds the full containment of available leaders. It is this very tight situation that has caught the Morrow County 4-H program, as well as many others, with a short supply. Reports Morrow 4-H staff, "There's a tremendous surge of interest in 4-H this TURKEYS - ROLLS MAYONN Aloe onunfcWW LETTUCE CRAB MEAT OYSTERS-.SPICESAND MANY Heppner. OR. Tfcirsd.

Since 4-H now extends into multi-areas of interest, the need for leaders has few boundaries. Creative arts and crafts, pet projects, small animal, machines and wood work have been indicated as particular areas of interest to the young people wanting to be 4-H members.

" burning in the second chapter of Acts the apostles and disciples, who were also stumbling around in fear, were gathered together in one place. Undoubtedly, the Spirit is not controlled by our whims and fancies, but when the holy people of God are gathered together, the Sanctifying Spirit enters into the midst of them as a mighty rushing wind and as it were tongues of fire. Fear was then cast out ; it can be today. The Apostles ran into the streets proclaiming the mighty acts of God. They were accused by the scoffers, which we have with us always, as being drunk. But they spoke in the language of the then known world and many believed and were baptized. Might the holy People of God gather together in one place regularly to hear the Word of God, offer the Prayer of the Church and break The Bread? Fear is cast out, the journey begins anew with a destination finally, however dimly, realized. May the joy of Christ be yours and may your lives be filled with power. Oh, the Sanctifying Spirit is a burning fire. He's a flame of love, he's a sanctifier. Yes, the Sanctifying Spirit is a burning fire, Won't you come great Spirit, Come. Shalom, Kenneth D.
