WHY HAVE LENT? “I don’t believe 'in L en t,” said Sam. “T hose days are like any other days.” "It is true," said Eob. "but don’t you feel th at a special tim e should be set aside to think about the L ord's su ffe r ing?" "If you moan His d eath and resurrection, I sure do," said Sam, “but let the L ord o r the apostles set th at tim e." So we m ust go to the New T estam ent. Let us read M att. 26:26-29; Mark 14:22 25; Luke 22:15-20. I believe from these scrip t ures we m ust agree th a t the Lord w anted us to take of the bread as of His body and th e cup the fruit of the vine w hich represents the blood th at the Lord shed on th e cross. 'Tie was talking to the apostles.” says Bob. T hen read I Cor. 11:23-30, w here P aul told th e C hristians (the church) to do th e sam e as was com m anded of th e Lord to the apostles. T hat is w hat th e Bible says to do. "When should we do this?” asks Bob. The Lord says as often as you do this in rem em brance of m e you do show fo rth th e L ord’s death till he comes The apostles came together to break bread on the first day of the week. Acts 20:7. T here is no place in th e New T estam ent w here m en should w orship or keep any day of the y ear o r m onth or by any signs or changes of th e moon but it does m ention days of the week The Lord was raised from the dead on the first day of the week. Luke 24:1-10; Mail. 28:1-6; Mark 16:1 6: John 20: 1 20 T he Lord or the apostles did not tell us anythirfg about L ent and it was not practiced until the apostles w ere all dead so therefore it w ould h ave to . It is not the Lord’s goapel according to His will or testa ment. W illowcreek electric water heating’s great . . . and it lowers your rate Whether you have the new Quick Recovery (three times faster) electric water heater or the standard model, your electric water heater is the key to BEST BARGAIN electricity. It helps you enjoy more electrical convenience at lowest cost — since the water heater uses only a portion of the low-cost kilowatt block it provides. That's one reason why home makers served by Idaho Power Company enjoy a standard of electrical living more than twice as hiqh as the national average.
