The Apostolic Benediction was the
theme of the sermon in. the United
Church on Sunday, March 6 -- "The
Grace, of the Lord Jesus Christ, and '
.the love of God and the communion
of the Holy ,Spirit be with You all.' 1,,
The doctrine of the Trinity Is often
looked upon as' vary mysterious. In
reality it is only a Statement of nor-
mal Christian, expeelenee. ea God
active in creation and providenc'e
God active in revelation -and
redemption in Jesus Christ — God
active In the human spirit through
Christ unto. salvation — so the min-
ister declared.
The anthem for .the day was, "He
Keeps Me Singing" by L. B. Bridges.
I Colvin :stated it 'ae his opinion that
most Christiana to-day would 'a-
gree with the ,fertriele, "let my ex.
ample speak not my line, He point-
E ed out that if Christ bed Said
ing people Would have ,concluded
that. his miraclete were the work
of a Magician and not of the Bon
of God. if e doctor were to heal
any of 'YOU when yoa are very ill you
would sing his praise to your ietende
for you would not be content to let
them merely see that you were hese
ed,.
ChriSt told the' Demoniac of Mark
5, to go borne to his friends anti tell
them what great things the Lord had
done for him and how lie had had
compassion upon him. He Was sent
'home to tell abroad what Jesus had
done. When God Saves Our scups
from eternal dearth, creates a 'new
heart -within us; gives us victory
over our sinful desires 'we merely
hope that .people will notice a dif-
ference in us.
The world ie said to be searching
for (salvation, are we ready to offer
them ,Cihrisi,or must they find these
ealvation- through Communism with
its doctrines of the ,Soverign State.

NOTICE

The average church to-day does
not' give enough tc missions to sup-
Poet even. [half a mispionarye Mr
Colvin repeated a story told Settle-
day evening by Douglas Percy of
Toronto, • in Africa the Communist
party :in• one of the mining towns
had a man sitting near the baying
booth, when .the men. 'were paid,.
they gave. their envelope to the
Comniunist leader who gave thern
back what he felt that they should
have 'to live on and the rest was
given to spreal comaiumism in
Africa. Do 'we have such zeal when
'it denies to witnessing for Christ?
Mr. Colvin also ureed the ,young
.rtnen of the congregation to think
'seriously 'about the call of God to
'foreign mission work.
