I wrote several columns on unity and used the 17th chap ter of St. John where the Lord prayed that we all be one even as He and His Father are one, and I believe almost everyone who read them would be w ill ing to have unity if you would just come over to our church and we would all be the same denomination. T h at is im possible for people to do, because m em bers of each denom ination th in k they are ju st as good o r a little b etter th an th e rest. I know most everyone thinks the same of me: that I would like for all the denominations to come over to my church. But it isn't true because I don't have a church and do not be long to any religious :denomi- nation. C hrist has a ch u rch and it isn’t a denom ination. It is the one He said He w ould b u ild in M att. 16:18. He did build il on the day of Pentecost through His in spired apistles that were filled with the Holy Ghost. Acts 2. And m y friends, if you w ill ju st do w h at P e te r told them to do in Acts 2:37-41, He (C hrist) w ill add you to His church ju st like th e w rite r said in th e 47th verse. Now let us notice what the word denomination means: the act of designating, a sect, class or division, a part of the whole. Now in o rd er for us to u n ite w ith o u t going o v er to som e- ones church, we m ust go back to th e Bible and do ju st w hat it says to do, no m ore, no less, and w e w ill be of th e sam e m ind and th e sam e sp irit and God w ill m ake us of th e sam e body and we w ill all be one as C hrist prayed. I know, you may say I would be w illing to do it, but the rest of the congregations won't lay down some of their traditions. It is good if they would, but there isn't any excuse for you, because you can overcome those htings yourself, and God w ill give you a crown — the same as Christ was writing to the seven churches in R evela tions, chapters 2 and 3. T here w as only one church th a t C h rist d id n ’t find som e th in g w rong w ith an d th a t w as the church a t S m yrna. The other six churches He offered a promise if they would overcome their faults. He says, “to HIM th a t over- com eth,” so th a t m eans to a n y one th a t overcom eth and does His will, no more, no less, u n til the end, C hrist w ill give a crown. I would like you to read Rev. 2 and 3, but at least Rev. 2:7, 10. 17. 26 and Rev. 3:5, 12. If you do not u n d erstan d how P eter in ten d ed people to be added to the church. I w ould be glad to study it w ith you in y o u r hom e at y o u r co n v en ience. Phone 3318 (Paid Adv.) For best results use the Journal Classified Ads.
