Wood officiating: - Interment was. in Colborne Yea .though 1 walk through the valley of the shadow of death. 1 shall fear no evil for Thou ort with me - . —2 rd Psalm The Minister's Study SUBMITTED BY THE REV. RONALD ASHTON The distinguishing marks of a •Christian are not .his, opinions .of -any sort . . . his accepting'this or that scheme of religion his embracing any particular set of notions , or mouthing the judgements of one man -or another. All these things really miss the whole point of what it means to be a Christian. All opinions which do not strike at the root of Christianity we thitjk, and let think, we take themOr leave them as our conscience allows. Neither does the Christian religion depend upon any peculiar way, of speaking. We don't.put.on airs by repeating certain s•crip•t•ural ex- pressions. Christians don't just refrain from doing those things that God has fobidden. We are not identified by our clothes or the way we walk: whether our heads are covered: or in abstaining Trom.certain foods or drinks.. Nor is a Christian identified because he bases his relgion on any particular part of God's truth. Christians ought to believe that, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God." There are too rrrar people who make a religion out of (1) doing no. harm, "or (2) doing good (often these two put together). Then what are the distinguishing marks of a 'Christian? Who is a Christian? A Christian is a person who has t.helove of God in his heart:This •is the gift of God's Holy Spirit. That same spirit causes a Christian to love the Lord his God with all his heart, with all his soul, with all' his strength, with all his mind. God is the joy of a, Christian's •heart. Naturally the Christian is happy in God. ,The peace and joy of God are constantly evident in his life and conduct, The Christian does not fear God's rkra'f:h for 'himself: Perfect love io'"'iGod,_ has driven out fear of God t punishment. For this reason the Christian is able to rejoice • The character of a Christian in God who is his Lord and Saviour. The Christian is one who realizes that he belongs to God instead of Satan. This is redemption, deliverance. It is possible only because Jesus gave His life ort the cross. He shed His blood to make a way of forgiveness for all those who believe. The Christian trusts in Christ alone for his salvation. The' Christian knows that the blood of Jesus has cleansed him from all -sin. . The Christian never forgets this. He shudders as he considers the eternal punish- ment from which he has been delivered by Jesus Christ. He rejoices every time he:thinks ofhis narrow escape from destruction, Every time he sees someone come to Christ for forgivgness he rejoices in God's mercy and love. . The Christian also rejoices because he can look forward contidently io the second corning of Christ. The 'return of Christ, predicted in the scriptures, holds no fear for. him, only joy and expectancy. Having this great hope, the Cemetery. Pallbearers were Ken Wilson, Randy Schrinidt, Brian Schmidt, Tom Schmidt, Allan Milburn and Rick Milburn. Flower bearers were Bob Aller/, Dave Williams, Greg Potter, Gary McPhee, Gerry. Eggleson, Bill Davids and Bill Fisher. Harvey Chisolm Johnston •= A well-known public ser- vant and Huron .

His confidence does not depend on whether things go good for him. His hope rests with the Lord: He trusts God in bad or good 'times. His faith does not dependant financial success or harmonious ,marital bliss. He believes that the God.: who saved him from his sins and began a good. work in him will continue to work all things out .to Hisgry. Also, the Christian has learned to .be content, whether he has much or little. Whether he lives ori dies he_ gives thanks to God. He knows" - no 'paralyzing frustration or anxiety. He has cast his every care upon God, never failing to let God know ,all his heeds and problems: The Christian never stops praying. His attitude' is always one of severance and' openness to God. His .prayer is the language of his heart The Christian's whole life- style is one of living in the presence of God. The Christian's heart is full of love - for everyone: To'the Christian there is no racial barrier, no language or cultural barrier, no ethnic or religious. r barriers. The Christian' even Ioves God's enemies. The Christian prays for,,those that trouble and insult him. The Christian qan live with a pure heart. He' can be clean from all thoughts of revenge, envy, wrath, desire to harm, from all unkind inclinations. The ' Christian can be identified just as a.tree can be identified - by its fruit. He can bear the fruit of- God. This fruit is joy, peace, gentleness; affection etc. Finally, the Christian is a person who sees that the greatest good, he can do is to help someone else get_ in the right .relationship with God. This ' is • the only way a man can have peace with God and with himself, • Wow! You mean to say that a Christian ought to be all those things? How is it possible to live like that?

Turkeys roasted early , About 12,000 young turkeys were roasted:. prematurely last' week in a blaze that destroyed a two storey building owned by Knechtel� Mills Ltd. of Hanover. The, Blyth fire department cap- tain, Jim Howson, said the estimated damage would be' around $100,000. The building was located near Auburn. Captain Howson . said the company insuring the building had put the cost of replacing it at $80,000. However it would be difficult to estimate the value of the young turkeys. He figured it might be about $20,000. The Blyth Fire Department received the alarm at 10:50 p.m: December 18 and was at the site, about. seven miles from the village, within 10 minutes. But .,,the 1.28,000. square foot building was beyond saving, he said.
