Guest Speaker: Dr. Lincoln Wadsworth Are you a beneficiary of the last will and testament of Jesus Christ? This is the only document that can provide for you after you leave this world. Do not let any one deceive you or misrepresent its terms. Some deny that it is a divine will; many regard it as authen tic but do not comply with all its terms. This instrument is not a forgery. It will stand in any court today. Its terms are pre cise and unchanging. They re quire strict obedience and must be interpreted correctly. To inherit eternal life you must be obedient to every com mand and precept. Christ's will and testament has four distinct divisions. Four books of biography called the gospels. These record the birth of Christ, his childhood, baptism, teaching, miracles, his enemies, trial, death, resurrec tion, and his return to heaven. Next is one book of history; an explanation of how, when and where the Church was es tablished and how to become a Christian. Following this book of Acts are twenty-one books or letters teaching how to live the Chris tian life. It closes with a book of reve lation, concerning the future of the Church, and a description of the heavenly home of the faithful. To be continued. - THE CHURCH OF CHRIST 1056 Court St., Medford I n
