Oregon The crowd packed the streets of Jericho to see One who could open blind eyes and raise the dead. But Zaccheus, a rich man and grafter, was too short to see oyer and he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree. At that place, Christ called to Z a c c h e us to come down — “For I must a- bide at your house tod ay.” Out of the hours that followed, Zaccheus saw G o d's eternal love for the lost and it changed him so that you hear him say that if he has cheated any man he will restore to him 4-fold—the law of the day. So Zaccheus became a new man. But Christ must yet go on and die for Zaccheus sins and ours also to clear us with God. And how do you stand with family, neighbors and city? Peo ple must see Christ in you to believe you are a sure-enough Born Again. G-N-T, Portland 1, Ore. Send out the Good News and God works. This space paid for by a family of the county.
