6B RELIGION/IEtt C^rlottc $ot Thursday, August 25, 2005 Old documents provide insights Continued from page 8B the way they spent member dues. “They were the ones who helped people get buried,” Jones said. “They put togeth er their nickels and dimes, provided food, clothing and supplies to widows and chil dren, insurance to men.” For reasons unknown, the Alderson Odd Fellows had lar^ly disappeared by about 1940. The local black Masons lodge then took over the hall’s upper rooms, but they too, have not been active in Aider- son for years. Church members, doing some spring cleaning and addressing the hall’s shaky roof recently, entered the upstairs hall for the first time since anyone could remem ber. “That’s when we discovered the treasures that we’re find ing now,” Jones said. They indude a cofBn and a pair of gilt-fi'amed portraits of an unidentified but apparently prominent black couple. Meanwhile, the Alderson community is coming togeth er to save Shiloh Baptist, which has been hit hard by Greenbrier River floods over the last 75 years. “Another year, and this building may be beyond hope,” Jones said. Teleavangelist Robertson criticized Continued from page 8B Percesepe, Coordinating Director. “Jesus advocated non violence as a way of life, and in the spirit of Jesus the earliest followers of Jesus refused entirely to serve the Emperor, or to fight and kill in his armies. A consistent ethic of life' would condonn all forms of killing and embrace without contradic tion respect for a culture of life.” Venezuela is the fifth largest oil exporter and a mfyor supplier of oil to the Gospel Music United States. The CIA esti mates that U.S. markets absorb almost 59 percent of Venezuela’s total exports. Venezuela’s government has demanded in the past that the United States cradc down on Cuban and Venezue lan "terrorists” in Florida who they say are conspiring against Chavez. Robertson has made contro versial statements in the past. In October 2003, he sug gested that the State Depart ment be blown up with a nuclear device. He has also said that feminism encour ages women to “kill their chil dren, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians.” “Pat Robertson is not only wrong politically, he has revealed himself to be bank rupt spiritually,” Percesepe said. I The Baptist Peace Fellow ship of North America is an international organization that educates, gathers and mobilizes Baptists to build a culture of peace. Charlotte Post Staff* Writer Ch^is F.

Little - Teacher There on November 10, 2003, it was a sad day. But it was a high day because the God of all grace gave me grace and strength to be true to the souls of the people at my wife’s funeral. There were a lot of highly educated souls there. They left saying they had never been to a funeral like that. I felt so weak and helpless. I didn’t know what to say. There were other religious leaders who spoke. But I felt so ignorant. The Lord had a message, I believed, for someone. And now some here are telling me for the first time that they want to know Christ. Praise the Lord. Every elect of God will be saved. Friend, whether you get saved or not. Heaven will be populated. I am just a poor sinner saved by the grace of God. I had nothing to do with my salvation and no preacher had anything to do with my salvation. God never saves a sinner until He gets all the glory. Are you saved? Are you rejoicing in Christ? I am. I would not exchange one scintilla of what I have in Christ for ten thousand worlds of silver and gold. Over the last few weeks I had occasion to crawl down into deep holes, some eleven feet deep and one about twenty feet deep or more. I did not go in the twenty foot deep hole. And as I picked up several rocks and the soil, it was cool. I thought about lost souls being buried and their bodies going back to the dust from whence they came, but their souls and spirits going to hell. Never before in my life had I crawled into deep holes like that. But then my Lord was buried for me, and He was raised for me. What about you? Was Christ raised from the dead for you? Did He die for you? He died for me. I told the folks there at the funeral: “I can sum up my theology in just four words. ‘Christ died for me’.” I’ll leave you right there. If you want to know that Christ died for you, come to Him! The Lord is dealing with your heart, God doesn’t tease a sinner! Turn to Him while He is dealing with your heart. May you soon be brought to know Him is my prayer for you. H.O. Graham Metropolitan Presbyterian Church 2929 Old Steele Creek Rd.
