Make Church - Going A Habit ... HOW BOOKS BECAME THE BOOK International Sunday School Lesson for May 4 Memory Selection: “Heaven and earth shall pass away; but my words shall not pass away.”— Mark 13:31. Lesson Text: Exodus 34:27; I Chronicles 29:29-30; II Kings 22:8-13; Jeremiah 36:27-32; John 21:24-25; II Peter 3:15b-18; Revelation 1:11, 19. There have been few books, over the cen turies, about which so much controversy has raged as over (he Bible as we know and accept it today. And so great is its scope, that one can readily see why. There are those who argue that the Bible con tradicts itself—as witness the fact that the Old Testament portrays God as a stem and “jealous" God, while the New Testament teadhes that God is a loving God, and one whose justice is tem pered with mercy. We, ourselves, like to think that this vastly differing opinion is explained by the fact that part was written before Jesus’ advent on earth—and part was written after— hindsight, admittedly, always being better than foresight. And while some argue that with the story being handed down from father to son through generation after generation; with it being tran scribed into many tongues, it doubtless lost nothing in the telling—but rather gained much— there are certain fundamental truths in both the Old Testament and the New that pertain (very aptly) to man’s life—both temporal and in the Hereafter. The Scriptural passages which are the basis of this lesson give us three specific examples of how the message of God to man was placed on written record, and thus preserved for the instruction and guidance of humanity through out the ages. First, after the burning of the original writ ings by King Jehoiakim, God commended the prophet Jeremiah to dictate his prophecies again to a scribe. The second roll contained many prophecies that had not been contained in the first, and this second recording doubtless became a major part at the Book of Jeremiah as it is known and studied today. Thus we are con fronted with the irrefutable fact that in spite of human opposition, the Scriptures have (and will) endure through the ages. Paul, too, became recognized by men as a great writer and teacher of the Gospel. Through his Epistles to the various churches in scattered communities (founded previously by himself and a handful of devoted followers) he held the Christian churches together, strengthening them from many miles away with his inspired pen manship, as they faced an equally dedicated op position to their doctrines. And, through his travelling and teaching methods, many learned of God’s plan for mankind, first-hand. The Bible is a God-inspired creation from be ginning to end. It is not—as so many of us pre-suppose—a single volume which attained its Continued on Pag# 7 BELK - TYLER’S EDENTON’S SHOPPING CENTER W. E.

I was amused, too, as I watched her imitate her mother on the way to church the next day. She really had that walk down to a “T.” I’m glad her mother is her model. She couldn’t have a better one. Mary’s love of God is reflected in everything she does. Her happiness in serving God and His church is contagious. I should know! When we were married, I was a sometime church goer. Now, I teach Sunday School, sing in the choir and am chairman of the building committee. I find it deeply satisfying to know that my church needs me. Every church needs the dedicated effort of its members. Experience the joy of serving God. s ..piu-.i teierird by reffc Ifi, A-nrrican B.M, V-orly Cnwnakt 1969 Knurr Advertising Service, Inc .
