The Forum MAN HERE AND HEREAFTER LIFE AFTER DEATH ASSURED Part 7 Th« metal faculties—reasuping, memory, judgement, will power, imagination—cease to function with the destruction of the hu­ man body, as do also other body activities, such as the heartbeat, digestion, circulation of the blood, and breathing, when a man dies. “His breath goeth forth, he re- turneth to his earth; IN THAT VERY DAY HIS THOUGHTS PERISH.” Psalms 146:4. “The living know that they shall die: but the DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Al­ so their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion forever in anything that is done under the sun.” Ecclesias­ tes 9:5,6. Therefore, the admonition is given, “Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, no knowledge, nor wis­ dom, in the grave, whither thou goest.” Verse 10. “The dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down Into silence.” Psalms 115:17. (See also Isaiah 38:18,19.) Job said of the dead that “till the heavens be no more, they shall not wake, nor he raised out of their sleep.” Job 14:12. Here death is spoken of as a sleep. Death is repeatedly com­ pared by Bible writers to a sleep. The obituaries of the Holy Scrip­ tures frequently speak of a man as having “slept with his fathers.” Paperhanging Painting - Signs FRANK H1RSCH Keasey Rt.

Lee Motors Sales and Service PHONE 173 For God the death of man is like a sleep, because He has the power to wake them from it and raise them up from their dusty beds to life. A notable example of this is recorded in the gospel story of the life of Christ. Lazarus was gravely ill. His sisters, Mary and Martha, sent word to Jesus to come at once, but the Master de­ layed His coming. Afterward Christ said to His disciples: “Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep. Then said His disciples, Lord, if he sleep he shall do well. Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that He had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.” John 11:11-14. “Then when Jesus came, He found that he had lain IN THE GRAVE four days already.” (Verse 17. Lazarus was not in a hell of fire, neither in a purgatory of fire, nor in a celestial paradise during those four days. He was in the grave, and his body was in a state of decomposition. Verse 39. Jesus ordered that the stone be removed from the cave, and when this was done. “He cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave clothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, loose him, and let him go.” Verse 43,44. The Lord did not call to Laz­ arus and tell him to come up out of a burning hell or purga­ tory and enter into the decom­ posing body in the grave, in or­ der to be raised from the dead. Neither did He tell him to de­ scend from heaven and enter into the corpse, to be raised up from the grave. Lazarus Wa3 dead and in the grave, and from the tomb the Lord called him back to life. To be continued. G. F. Brown GAS PUMP BROKEN Last Thursday night, Feb. 22, the gas pump at Big Eddy was broken into, gas was spilled all over the place and things pretty well mussed up. All day Friday we tried to get a cop. At last it was suggested we try the sheriff, which we did in the late after­ noon. The sheriff promised faithfully to send a cop Satur­ day. Well, Saturday came, no cop, Sunday, no cop, also Mon­ day, no cop—Some service! Sure is a different proposition just before election or if they want a raise in pay. Now Big Eddy service station is not op­ erated for profit, and sometimes it barely pays its way. Some people probably don’t think of this but I imagine they would miss it if it were gone. Maybe some fine morning they will wake up to the fact that the Little Big Eddy had closed and those that are trying to keep it open had turned to more profit­ able business. Mrs. L.
