It was devis ed in the 12th century. The first publication of the Scrip tures was St. Luke’s Gospel in 1834 at Singapore by the London Missionary Society. The American Bible Socie ty work was begun in Thai land as early as 1837 but it was not until 1890 that an agency was established. The Bible House in Bangkok has printed and distributed mil lions of copies of Thai Scrip tures. The printers of the Bible introduced into Thai usage the separation of words, instead of printing them in solid lines. Seminary Topics Will Be Taught The Chowan Baptist Asso ciation resutnes its Semin ary Extension program cm Tuesday night, September 7, with classes in Old Testa ment Survey scheduled at the Warwick Baptist Church, the Rehoboth Baptist Church and the First Baptist Church in Elizabeth City. Designed primarily for laymen, these classes pro vide an unusual opportunity for Sunday School teachers, all church leaders and the general membership to en gage in extended study of the Old Testament. By meeting from 7:30 to 9 P M. each Tuesday through November 23, a total of 18 hours will be spent in this particular study. The class at Warwick will be taught by Rev. Warren Rollins, pastor of the church. Churches in Gates, Chowan and Perquimans Counties are especially urged to en courage their membership to take advantage of this course. According to Rev. Robert S. Harrell, superintendent of missions for the Chowan Baptist Association, thous ands of lay people all over the Southern Baptist Con vention have benefited from the many courses offered by the Seminary Extension De partment. Over 80 people in the Chowan Association attended similar classes last year. Additional courses will be offered each year through these classes in Bible, theo logy, church history, re ligious education and music. In a time when so much em phasis is being placed on adult education, it is to be hoped that many church people will enroll in these special classes with religious emphasis. This Is The Life By DONALD B. THOMAS TRAIN A CHILD Last week the papers were full of riots in Los Angeles and Chicago. Prop erty damage ran into the millions of dollars and peo ple were killed. A mob can be very ugly and mean and they will not listen to rea son. Such a mob killed our Saviour Jesus Christ. Who is to blame? It is the par ents or is the church at fault? If the preachers do not talk against mobs and violence and against sin and do not preach tKe Word, if could be his fault. Maybe he is afraid if he does preach the Word, he will make some one mad or the association doesn't like it and he will lose his job. He should lose it if he doesn’t preach the Word. I don’t care what color the skin you have, the parent could be to blame. We let our children run loose and don’t pay them no mind. How many of us send our child to a Bible be lieving church where the Word is preached? The crime rate, drinking and so on is high because we don’t ‘rain our children in God’s way. Do you train your child? The Bible says: “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”— Proverbs 22:fi. Gratitude, in most men, is only a strong and secret , hope of greater favors. —La Rochefoucauld. “I used to * cry for no reason at all" One of the first *Change-of-life* danger signals No wonder a woman feels like crying!

Lesson Text: Ephesians 6: 10-20; James 4:1-8; I John 2:17. In last week’s lesson we took under consideration the sins of the flesh against which every man has to bat tle. These were primarily private factors. But in this ltsson we study those things which are outside of our selves— outside our control as an individual—which put pressure on us and can hin der our growth as Christians. Herein lies a persistent and continuous struggle, and this lesson should enable us to withstand these temptations more effectively recogniz ing them for the evils that they arc. Christian life is warfare, and for it, the Christian needs the armor enumerated by Paul the loincloth of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit. And, although the thought of continuous, daily strug gle may dismay some of us, still, we are adult enough to know that there is a lbt of truth in the old saying that if something is worth hav ing it is worth fighting for. And what could be more worth fighting for than God’s saving Grace? For it is true, that aS we face adversity and hard; ship and conquer them so we grow in stature as a person. How much more true it is that as we face the enemies of the spirit, and conquer them, so we grow spiritually! As we read Paul’s descrip tion of the armor needed by the Christian in his con tinuing warfare against evil, it should occur to us that Colonial Motor Co., of Edenton BUICK - OLDS - PONTIAC GMC TRUCKS Belk - Tyler’s W&r EDENTON’S SHOPPING CENTER W.E.

It should also oc cur to us, however, that the sword is an offensive weap on. In other words, we are not to stand still, merely warding off the onslaught of the enemy—Sin—but we are to strike back. It is not enough to merely refrain from being weak and bad. We must stand strong and good. , Spiritual weapons of cour age, truth, steadfastness and hope are-needed because the enemy we are facing is not made of flesh and blood. It is a spiritual enemy an enemy which would reduce man to the lowest that is in him. And it is a sad truth that we are not naturally equipped to face a foe like this; the very nature of man leans towards ease, indol ence, selfishness and indulg ence. It has indeed been truly said that the strongest chain is only as strong as its weakest link! The most telling weapon against sin in the world is the gospel of Christ. This is brought home to us as we take note of the adver sities which beset Paul. He never faltered in his devo tion to his Christian faith. If we will but follow Paul’s inspiring example, and be bold witnesses for Christ as we go our ap pointed ways on this earth, we will have the foe more than half vanquished at the outset. For the pressures from without become less of a personal problem for us if we are girt with the armor of Christianity. Remember we cannot fight this fight alone and win. We need God’s saving Grace to strengthen our stand against the forces of evil.
