Alpha Huron has been preaching this since its inception. The members were made aware of this at a meeting held in Clinton Public School. President Pat Watson noted that the sanitary facilities for the han- dicapped at Suncoast Mall in. Goderich are installed to one side of the cubicle. This enables a wheelchair person to pull alangside and use the facility. If the facility is centered, as it often is, there is not usually room to do this and it is not usable.

Some think we cannot, others feel that only certain people may know. Some say "We'll know when we get there. The devil delights in keeping us uncertain about our salvation. God however through His Word offers positive assurance of eternal life. The Gospel is God's good news of a present salvation for all who believe or have personal faith in the Lord Jesus as Substitute, Lord and Saviour. Assurance of salvation comes in receiving what God has given, and by believing what God klas said to all who believe in His Word. It is the good news of a present salvation for repentent, believing inners as they are, here and now. It was for this purpose that God sent His Son into this world. John 3:17 "For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through Him might be saved." Then how come there ,are those who declare that no one can know that he is saved? We can be sure that if one does not know it, that it is not the purpose of God, but is the, result of God's Word being caught in the web of unbelief and becoming unprofitable. What do we think the Holy Spirit meant when He caused the Apostle Paul to write as he did in Rom. 1:16? "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that-,belie.veth, to the Jew first and also, to the Greek." Jesus Himself declared in .Luke 19:1"0."F..or the c THE SALVATION ARMY Son of Man is come to seek and to save that which was lost." Praise. His name, for many have heard, believed and are saved. The way of salvation is by faith: "It's strange we trust. each other And - only doubt our Lord, We take the word of mortals, And yet distrust His.. word. But, oh, what bliss and glory North Street United Church .. Would shine o'er all our days, If we only would remember God means just what He says." When you believe God's good news, the Gospel, you are saved. Eph. 2:5: "Even when we were dead through our trespasses, God made us alive together with Christ. By grace have ye been saved." and in verse 8: "For by grace have ye hien-5trved through faith; and that no[ of your- selves. It is the gift of I God, not of works, lest God, of works,' lest any man should boast."' God has life for us, it is a gift and we can receive this gift by simply believing His written word. John 20:31: "These are written that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through His name." Now Christ will do no more . for our salvation than He has already done, because there is nothing more that He needs to do. Heb. 7:25: "Wherefore He is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth to make in- tercession for them." If He failed to complete our redemption He would not be God, and to say that the believer comes into judgment for his sins after death casts dishonour upon the redeeming work of Christ. It would also be contrary to scripture for it is this that we are saved from. Salvation means to be saved from judgment, from the wrath of God to conte. Eph. 2:5 "For it is by grace, by favour and mercy you did not mercy you did not deserve, that you are delivered from judgment. and made partakers of Christ's salvation." You see, the believer escapes judgment because it has already been borne by the Saviour 1 Peter 2:24: "Who His own self bare our sins in His own body of the tree." and again in John 5:24; "He that heareth my word and believeth on Him that sent me hath everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation but is passed from death unto life." Romans 8:1: "There is now therefore no con- demnation to them that are in Christ Jesus." are Christ Jesus." Hebrews 10:17: "And their sins and iniquities will remember no more." In -Rev. 14:13 we read: "Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord, from henceforth, yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours and their works do follow them." Please note that the stavedenter into rest, not judgment and that their works do not go before thein to merit or open the way, but follow, for good works are the fruits or results of our salvation. Remember that we cannot save ourselves, that only Jesus can save, that there is no other -way. 'way. Remember also that one must be saved to escape the wrath of God which is to be poured out upon the unbeliever who must stand before God and answer for every wrong thing he has done ,in this life. • To be without Christ then is to stand con- demned already, awaiting trial . by none other. than God, by God who hates sin and who will deal most 'severely with it. If you are not sure where you stand with God then find out quickly lest you should die in your sins and face God's Judgment; For Wedding Banquets Funeral Designs, Green Plants, Hanging Plants and Pots, plus a full line of Fresh, Silk and Dried Flowers head for...
