Too many live only for today
BY PASTOR ALFRED
FRY
"He Must Reign"
(1St. Corinthians.
15.25)
generations ago most
sections of The Christian
Church accepted the
doctrine of the„ Second
Coming of The Lord, and
were looking for His
personal return as the
great hope of The Church.
Services were -held to
stimulate interest in the
subject, and•thousands of,
Christian" people of all
denominations testified
to a quickening oftheir
spiritual life in con-
sequence. But one of the
saddest features of these
present days is that the
organized churches have.
almost entirely given up
looking for His coming.
Not only have they
ceased to believe in The
Lord's return as an ar-
ticle of doctrine, but in
some quarters they
openly challenge its truth
and hold it open to
ridicule. 'The tragedy is
that it is the professing
church, not only the
avowed infidel-. that is
saying, in the words of
(2nd Peter, 3-4) "Where
is the promise of His
coming? for since the
father's fell asleep,. all
things continue as they
'Were—Minthe creafiOrf.
It is a sad fact that too
many people have set
their minds on the things
of this life, trying to
improve things down
here, and all their
• energies 'are bent on
making this world a
better place in which to.
'live; they have forgotten
the injunction of the
Apostle, to "set your
affection on things above,
not on things of the earth.
(Col. 3-2.) Nowhere in the
New Testament are
Christians told to im-
prove the world in which
they live.
In Scripture the world
is spoken of as' being
incurably evil, believers
are reminded that they
are saved out of the world
and unto a future day of
glory. One reason the
organized Church has
largely lost its hold upon
the masses of to -day is
that it has lost this vision
of the eternal; .this vision
was so characteristic. of
The early Church.
The Kingdom of God
cannot and will not come
on earth, until the Literal,
Personal, and Physical
return of The Lord takes
place. "He Must Reign".
There are millions of
displaced persons
wandering aimlessly, in
the world, homeless,
destitute and despairing,
a legacy of fear , hatred,
and suspicion remains.
Violence, greed; lust,
cruelty and crirne is
rampant. (I am quoting
some facts by "B.G.
Wheatley" Of Sovereign
Grace Advent
Testimony.") I also am
writing after many years
of experience in the work..
of the Church.
In writing to the
Church,. Peter5, ' Peter
says "You shall receivea
crown of glory. What is
this Glory? It is not only
the Glory of Heaven, but
the Glory of. The
Millennial reign of Christ,
which is to be unveiled at
His Second Coming.
When He shall appear we
shall be like Him, (In
Glory) for we shall see
Him as He is. (1st. John.
3-2)'Thus' He must reign,
if our salvation is to be
consummated. Psalm 72.
speaks of the reign of The
King. "He shall have
dominion from sea to sea,
His enemies shall lick the
dust, All kings shall fall
down before Him.
What then should be the
attitude of the Christian

Look who's st
your electricity
If there's more than .6 cm. (% inch) of frost
in your freezer, you're putting energy on ice.
Regular defrosting is easy to,do and it's
easier on the fridge. •
•
s — : 1 •
Heavy dust on your refrigerator coils
makes it work harder to keep its cool.
An occasional vacuuming of the coils
behind or underneath the refrigerator
can help it last longer and it won't use
more electricity than it has to.
Take the $1 ball test. Shut the door of your
fridge on a dollar bill. If the bill pulls out
easily cold air can flow out too, adding to your
energy costs. The fridge may need a new
gasket or the solution may be as simple as
making sure the appliance is level.
Tune -up Clean-up
It's simple. Appliances that are dean and
well -cared for Last longer and they use
less electricity. Over the long run, you can
save money on appliance replacement.
And of course, the less energy you waste,
themore dollars you save.
Don't waste your energy
