DENTINGER PASTOR OF ASHFIELD We cannot grasp the meaning of a Christian. unless we have adequate knowledge of Christ. To be called Christian im- plies that, in some way, one follows the teachings and example of .Christ. Otherwise the name "Christian" is, for that person, a sham and void of meaning. Thebospel accounts of the life of Christ have been subjected to the most critical analysis and scrutiny that any book has ever received. New evidence uncovered in research always affirms the authenticity of the writings. Jesus performed his miracles to prove his divine sonship, to prove his claim to be believed. His teaching stirred men's hearts, "for no man had ever spoken as this man." He demanded full faith, as to one sent by the Father to te,ach mankind the way to salvation and peace. The unique thing about Minister' stud Christ is not that He is a stupendous historical hero, a wise person or wonder worker. What makes Him apart from all others is that He rose from death. Had He not risen, as St. Paul says, then would our faith be in vain. Had His death and crucifixion been the end, the disciples would have thought of Him as a great man but only a man and not what He claimed to be - the Son. of God. It was Christ's resurrection that made, the whole difference; as St. Paul says: "Christ is alive and dies no more". The faith of the Apostles was deeply shaken by His death on the cross. But when they later realized that He was aline, th"v understood His words spoken a short time before His death: "I am with you all days to the end of the world." To be a Christian then, not only means accepting the teachings of Christ, but believing in a living Christ. The true Christian communicates with the living Christ by prayer, private and public. If he fails to live his Christianity, he is but a sounding brass or a tinkling symbol. But to those who live their faith, this is the Huronview residents enjoy classes Jim Ruddock, Norman Speir, and Cecil Skinner combined theft talents with ;Mrs. Marie Flynn on Monday af- ternoon at Old Time Music.
