NoBomb CanHurt
Evangelist
The Minister's Corner
Grandfaher is telling Midget how
a bomb might be dropped from a
plane and blow up the city and
kill all the people. Hear Midget’s
answer — “But grandfather it
couldn't hurt me for I belong to
Jesus and He is everywhere and
He will have me with Him.”
Away back in His days here on
earth, Jesus saw the little ones
turn to Him as being strong and
wise and loving. And said He—
Except you turn and become as
little children, you shall in no
way enter the Kingdom of Hea
ven.”—BIBLE, Matthew 18:3.
TURN AND TRUST—So Jesus
bids us turn and trust in Him.
Stand on it that Christ the Son
died for all your sins and God
gives you eternal life with him
self. From then on all your
life—sunshine or showers—look ut
terly to Christ to power you.—
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ
and you shall be saved—Acts 13:
31.
WOODS FULL OF HUNTERS
—Rev. Paul D. Sisler
The woods are literally and
figuratively full of hunters
these days. Red hats, blazing
guns, deer-draped jalopies, and
venison steaks symbolize the
one kind of hunting. Schools,
churches, theatres, auto-filled
highways, taverns, night clubs,
athletic stadiums, and many
other things tell the figurative
story.
We are all hunters. We’re
trying to bag the life that fully
satisfies.
It’s rather costly
business, too. Not many come
out of the woods with that
which really satisfies the soul.
There are many confusing
claims being made about how
to identify the game that’s
really worth while going after,
and how to go about tracking
it to its lair. Strange as it
may seem, not many of us
use even common sense in
sorting out the valid claims
ft am the empty ones. We listen
to the ones who shout the

.
We needn’t get the idea that
hunting for the big game of
abundant life is a cinch. It
isn’t. And that’s the rub. Most
of us are looking for a short
cut, and that’s why we come out
of the woods empty-handed.
The Master Hunter tells us
that he came “that they might
have life, and that they might
have it more abundantly.” It’s
a stiff course, this “Life Hunt
ing,” but you get the limit
without fail if you sincerely
fodow-every step of the instruc
tions. How about it, fellow
hunters?
Will you enroll in
the class that assuies you true
life happiness and satisfaction
or will you gamble with the
glittering, empty claims of the
shortcutters and go meatless
this coming season? It’s up to
you.
