There is a way that seemeth
right unto a man; but the end
thereof are the ways of death.
Prov. 14:12. a�

questioning of a. minister about

Now I'm sure 1I can hear
someone say, whats wrong with
good works, and'' I hasten to say,
nothing; nothing , at all. What. I
am saying is that no way do they
constitute a passport to heaven,
or in s
know. Now the sad thing about iiitual terms salvation
J �'• Erre ua �oo�. now � � iii
any , man should boast. ' And
further, Titus 3:5 "Not by.
works of righteousness which we
have done, but according to his
mercy he saved us.
Nowt in conclusion, may I
suggest do all who believe there
is- a heaven to gain and a hell to
shun, that you turn., for

the wicked forsake His way, and
the unrighteous man His
thoughts, and let him return
unto the Lord, and He will have
mercyupon him, and to our
God, for He will abundantly
pardon."
Having thus returned to
dhrist by faith for salvation,
through Him, and Him alone, we
now take a last look at man's
good works, this time in the
form of the ribs of the umbrella.
No longer a means of salvation,
which we have only in Christ,
but now as a•• loving and
reasonable service,. "to Him who
loved us and gave. Himself for
us.” Eph. 2:20.

`This week, as the tender'
green of Spring matures into
Summer, the winding . road
which ascends the Saltford
escarpment will suffer and die in
the name of progress. •
Cedar and maple which
provided welcome shade and
fragrance to those' who would
pass this way on foot or bicycle,
will fall before the cold -steel bite
of the chain saw, -to die limp' and
wilting „ in the heat of a
Summer's day. f) •
Earth and clay will be moved'
hence and thither to create an
`improved' straighter and wider
road flanked by brogd sterile
shoulders, along this road the
iron chariots may race in perfect
