This refuge has' been in exist- ence for thouhands of years.- God is our refuge in -temptation: He will keep us safe from all ills. In the times of danger no Israel- 'Res had far to go for refuge. There is only room for one God because He fills `Heaven•and earth: There are many w stories about the fight of ' our' Presbyterian an- cestors for liberty. During the reign of Henry VIII, Cardinal Wol- seley said, "If I 'had served my God is faithful as I have served my king, He would not have deserted me in my old age." , We must inake God our refuge by accepting Christ as. ,our Saviour and Our Lord. Although , 'we may be interested; and know quite a bit ,about- Kipgriont, it not enough,' We must trust ourselves to ilitn so that 'we can say, "God I will not be afraid."
