ice. 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. -
