CLINTON NEW -RECORD
Where Will We Spend The
Eternal Ages?
By "PEG"
'Through the past weeks ou
thoughts have dwelt on Childhood
Youth, Young married life, Middl
Age, and finally Old iAge.
•Recently we discussed the most irn
portant question. What would th
corning of Christ mean to me?, NON
we have come to the last in this serie
"Where will we spend the Eiterna
A,gee?"
. During the past summer partiall
arly there have been accidents almos
without number where human live
have been ended without a moment's
warning. It is net our place to judge
but if that were to happen to you or
me where 'would the endless yeaes of
Eternity be spent? What a thought!
Yet how lightly we deal with it.
Many of us, just brash it to one side
end take it for granted that there is
no future, +God is a God of love and
would never send any of His people
to a place of torture and many ether
excuses why they do not accept
Christ.
Seme {4 the older people can recall
what was called the Methodist Re-
vival Meetings. Some were in favor
of them and others had no use for
suoh service. There was one thing
about them the Evangelists preached
Heaven and Hell as taught in the
Bible. There were many people
brought to .Christ in those days who
lived a 'Christian life from then on.
Others of ue ean recall going as little
children with our parents' and the
memory of those meetings has never
faded from our mincls On some occ-
asions those who had decided never
to touch strong drink were asked to
sign a pledge to that effect and how
proud we were of the little piece of
blue ribbon which was given us 'when
our signature was affixed to the re
-
gaited card. It has often been re-
marked that many fell t from those
decisions +but statistics show that
there are those who did not.
Why are such meetings not being
held to -day? It is seldom we hear of
them. Ministers then were not afraid
to preach Hell as +spoken, of in God's
word. Why are ministers, Elders and
Christian people in general disbeliev-
ing in a Hell while they have every
confidence that God has prepared a
Heaven for us? Let us beware how
we deal with these questions.
Speaking about Heaven those who
are followers of our Saviour should t
be very mueli interested M +that Land.
If we have taken His gift of free
Salvation we have a title deed to a
peoperty there, and there is no To -let i
sign in the window. Christ in John 1
14:2 says. "In my Father's house are t
many mansions: if it were not so, t
would have told you, I go to -prepare I
itplace for 'you." Each one of His c
°Bowers is entitled to one of those!
mansions, we can have a title deed of . o
it just by believing on Christ and r
accepting Him as our own personal
, Saviour. Our Home up Yonder will
e be built from material which we send
up front Christian work here, What
- beautiful thought that is! Here if
e we buy a piece of property' we have
v to secure it legally and when it is
s finally ours we have a deed couched
1 in language which is by no means
understandable to us, We have had
- to pay money to seeure bath the pre-
y petty and the deed but the title to
$ our Home above is absolutely free.
It is a gift, all that it is necessaret for
us to do is to believe on Him and acc-
ept the fact that He died for us and
that through His death we are saved
ger the Eternal Ages which lie ahead
of us, whether that time is to be spent
with Jesus Christor with His advers-
any, the devil.
The title to that mansion is not
transferable. Christ bought it for us
at tremendous cost and it is ours as
long as we want it, It may be in our
life time a friend has loaned us some-
thing which we were perhaps hot able
to buy ourselves. We have no fear
that it will be taken from us for the
friend made Stipulation that it was
ours as long as we wanted it. So
it is with our property Beyond. As
long as we want it, it is ours and
every bit of material which we send
up will be used in beautifying it
Just at the present bine our count-
ry is faced with strikes which are
making it almost impossible to seeura
building material, Even while that is
going on here opportunities are being
given us such as perhaps we never
had before to seed building material
up above.
Are these houses or mansions going
to lb° poorly constructed buildings?
As we read about the Housing short-
age we quite often see plans of mod-
ern homes, which ase being built. These
are being planned bymen who have
spent years in studying this line of
work, when they ean plan such lovely
homes. What must the plans of our
Eternal homes be like when they are
designed by the greatest Architect
and Builder who ever lived? It is all
beyond our comprehension. This home
will be exactly to our liking and will
lever need to be altered. There is
nothing about it which will ever need
repairing for God has made .the very
best out of what we have sent up for
he construction of it. Let us just
think of what we would like in an
Earthly home, make it just as elabor-
te and comfortable as we would like
t to be. Realizieg that we must sopp-
y the building material for it and
hen as we look it over let us have
he thought that God will make or
Ieavenly home everything which we
ould desire.
Nothing can break the foundation
f our home for it is set deep in the
ock Which is the true foundation of
Heavenly homes.
So often we hear of homes being
broken into here and valuables taken.
There will be nothing like that in the
glory Land foe anyone who wants
to do that sort of thing would never
be happy in Heaven.
Another thought comes to us as we
see pictures and read articles of men
and women and their families being
evicted from their homes here. There
will be nothing of that there. Happ-
iness alone will be our lot.
As we have said the sort of home
we will have depends entirely on the
material we send up. Let us beware
lest we are doing things for our own
glory. •That sort of material will
be of no use in our Eternal Home.
If we are exporting that, then we will
find our home is not a mansion but
a shaek.
We can never reach that Land un-
til we croes through the Valley of the
Shadow of ;Death. Many fear the
time when they -will have to Mayo
their loved ones and go out into what
they believe will be blackness. We
know not what lies before us but we
do know that Christ will stand wait-
ing to pilot us through 'that Valley.
We need net fear for one moment.
With our hand in His there is nothing
whatever to fear. A little child is
never afraid to go any place with his
Earthly father, no more have we any-
thing to dread as we step from earth
to the great Beyond and then when
we reach the farther shore there our
loved ones will meet us and oh, the
joy whic:h will be ours! We know this
is true for Christ went ahead of us
and all the gloom from that adjoin-
ing place has been expelled. What
a joy it is to look forward to that.
Since we have accepted Christ as our
Saviour He has walked every step of
the way with us and not one promise
has failed.
A little Swedish girl was walking
along with her father one starry
night It was one of those nights
when the stars all seemed to twinkle.
Als she seemed to be lost in thought
her father asked her what she was
thinking about She answered "I was
just thinking if the wrong side of
Heaven is so glorious what most the
right side be like " No Earthly
words can describe the beauty of our
Heavenly Home if we are preparing
to go there.
This is all for those who want to go
to that Home. There is only one way
to get there. The solution of it is
found in -Acts 4:12 "For there is none
other. name under Heaven given
among men whereby we must be sav-
ed,"
The there is the other side. Many
believe there is no hell, as we said
earlier. When it comes down to the
fine point they do not want to. They
bring forward every excuse as to why
there should not be a hell, but the
Bible which teaches us that there is
a Heaven also instructs us in the
follo-wing words that there is a hell,
We can believe it or not but if one
part of God's Word is true it all is.
Matthew 13: 40-43 tells as "As
therefore the flares are gathered and
burned hi the fire; so shall it be in
the end of this world. The son of
man shall send forth his angels, and

Remember the old expeession. "A
stitch in time saves nine"? This is
particularly true when it comes to
making repairs around your home. ee
Often a small job done at once is C
inexpensive, if delayed, it frequently fa
requirps more time, money and'
ma emal to make the necessary re-
pairs.
A shortage of ready cash need not
delay you in making small repairs,
You can obtain money at 27 cents a
month for each e100 borrowed
through the Bank of Montreal's low-
cost personal loan plan. auch plans
are repayable in twelve monthly in-
stalments. There are no deductions,
no extras, no handling charges.
Furthermore, when you get 'such a
loan at the B M, you may be sure
that you are not asking a favour.
When repairs are necessary in your
home or when cash is required for
any good reason, drop in and see the
Bank of Montreal neighbourhood
manager, Mr. 'Robinson, or his ae-
countant, Mr. Miller, who will be glad
to review your plans with you.
