The Prophet’s Column
This Is a paid advertisement by J. M. Little
MY DEAR FRIENDS,
As we have closed another
year, my heart is heavy
because the multitudes of you
are not saved. And many of
you have no desire for the
Lord Jesus Christ.
The greatest thing in aU this
universe is just to know
Christ as your Lord and your
Saviour. I can give you some
thing that may last for a
while, but my Lord can give
you something that will last
you for all eternity, the
REVEALED CHRIST (Matt.
16:17). Salvation is Christ
REVEALED to your heart. I
urge all you sinners, don’t
stop short of Christ. But my
heart bleeds as I see our elder
ly people coming down to the
end of life and you are not
looking to go home to be with
the Lord. Our elderly people
are trying to hold to the mate
rial things of this life.
There is no salvation in the
material things of this life!
Oh, how sad! When you were
a little child you made a reh-
gious profession, but here you
are coming down to the end of
life and you have no founda
tion to rest your poor soul on.
What a tragedy! How many
times since God saved me
have I thanked the Lord for
redeeming me with His own
precious Blood, delivering me
out of the “empty religious”
profession handed down to me
from my late preacher grand
father and father. All they
had to offer me was an “empty
religious” profession. For
nearly twenty-five years, since
God saved me. I’ve been point
ing sinners to Christ as their
only salvation. Christ, and
Christ alone, is salvation. I
have not failed to point you to
Christ. But so many are sleep
ing their souls to hell under
the truth! You will not always
remain where you are. For
you to trifle with precious con
victions is most dangerous.
You grieve the blessed Holy
Spirit by trifling with His
impressions.
Wake up, sinner!

MY DEAR FRIENDS: We
have now passed the close of
another year and my heart is
heavy because the multitudes
of you are still not saved. And
many of you have no desire for
the Lord Jesus Christ. The
greatest thing in aU this uni
verse is just to know Christ as
your Lord and your Saviour.
I can give you something
that may last you for a while,
but my Lord can give you
something that will last you
for all eternity, the
REVEALED CHRlST(Matt.
16:17). Salvation is Christ
REVEALED to your heart. My
heart bleeds as I see our elder
ly people coming down to the
end of life and not looking to
go home and be with the Lord.
Our elderly people are trying
to hold on to the material
things of this life, but there is
no salvation in the material
things of this life. Oh, how
sad! Maybe, when you were a
little child you made a reli
gious profession, but here you
are coming down to the end of
life and you have no founda
tion to rest your poor soul on.
What a tragedy!
For almost twenty-five
years, since God saved me, I
have been pointing sinners to
Christ as their only salvation.
Christ, and Christ alone, is
Salvation. I have not failed to
point you to Christ. But so
many are sleeping their souls
to Hell under the truth. You
will not always remain where
you are. For you to trifle with
precious convictions is most
dangerous because you grieve
the blessed Holy Spirit by tri
fling with His impressions.
Wake up, sinner! I wish I
could shake you sinners out of
the death sleep you are in.
You don’t see any danger, but
you are under the wrath of a
sin-avenging God. You are
condemned to die, and die you
shall and meet the Lord, but
not in mercy. There is mercy
now for you if you turn to
Him. Remember, you cannot
hold to the world with one
hand and to Christ with the
other.
You must come out from
among them (H Cor. 6:17) and
God will receive (save) you.
'There has to come a complete
separation. I’ve done every
thing I know to get some of
you interested in knowing the
Lord, but each day you are
blinded more and more. If the
goodness of God will not melt
your stony heart, I don’t know
what will. May it be that the
Lord will have mercy on some
elderly person here in the
evening time of life and save
them before they go out into
eternity. It means something
to be saved, my friends.
Oh, if only you knew my
Lord!
Flag flap escalates
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CLEMSON, S.C. - The state’s
largest black Baptist organiza
tion has endorsed removing the
Confederate battle flag from
atop the Statehouse.
More than 700 ministers rep
resenting 400,000 members of
the Baptist Educational and
Missionary Convention of South
Carolina adopted the resolution
Tuesday.
Convention President Willie
Givens said the endorsement
doesn’t necessarily mean the
group supports Gov. David
Beasley’s proposal. Beasley
wants to move the flag to a
Confederate monument on the
Capitol groimds.
The statement the black
Baptists endorsed, written by
the South Carolina Christian
Action Council, says the flag
should be moved “to a more
appropriate location.”
It also says the religious lead
ers aim to “represent the voices
of respect, honor, reconcihation
and healing.”
The deadline
for
Church News
is 5 p.m.
Mondays.
