Morehead City stadent who U attending Campbell College. He aiki that he not he Identified. Yoo Bay not agree with what U said here, hat it re veal* what at lead one college stadent ? aad mayhe more ? are thinking ). Yes, no Christmas this year. San ta is coming with all his toys, but as far as Christ is concerned there will be no Christmas. Put yourself in Jesus' place, sitting at the right hand of God. Jesus looks down to see what happens on His birthday, but what's this, everyone is giving each other gifts, but none for Jesus. Think, how would you feel if your "friends" came to your birthday party and gave gifts to one another, how would you feel? No, there will be no Christmas for Jesus. Santa will be around this Christ mas, however, who or what is San ta? Santa is nothing . . . except the biggest tool the Devil has in getting people away from the main reason of Christmas. You may say Santa hasn't done anything to hurt Christmas, but ask twenty children between the age of 3 and 8 what Christmas is to them. If you get one out of this number to say Jesus' birthday, whom may I ask, did you ask? Some Christians would even say a child this young does not know what Jesus is "supposed" to mean to him. Maybe so, but tell your child of Santa, then when he finds there is no Santa, try and tell him about Jesus. Do you think your child will believe you now, after the lie he was told of Santa? Love is the most important theme of Christmas, because God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that through Him the world might have eternal life. Jesus says in St. John 15:12, "This is my commandment, that ye love one another as I have loved you." Yes, there is so much love; this Christmas we may receive a Third World War as a present. Racial problems are appearing all through the US. Is this an act of love? Jesus said, "Love one another as Retired Marine Sergeant Plans to be Missionary M/Sgt. Robert J. Jernigan, who retired from the Marine Corps at Cherry Point Nov. M, look* over the world-wide mission territory on ? map. The former non-com missioned officer in charge of the air station's education office, plans to enter missionary work after com pleting his schooling for the Baptist ministry. (USMC Photo). By S/SGT. JACK BAIRD Cherry Point ? "Now you can stop listening to other peoples' troubles," a fellow Marine advised M Sgt. Robert J. Jernigan, of New port, when the latter retired here on Nov. 30 after 20 yeari of ser vice. "To the contrary," replied Jer nigan, "I plan to go right on help ing people." While serving as non-commis sioned officer in charge of the air station education office, Jernigan counseled and assisted hundreds of Marines with their educational problems. Now that he is retired, he plans to enter Campbell Col lege, Bute's Creek, to study for the Baptist ministry. After further schooling at Wake Forest Seminary, Jernigan hopes to serve as a missionary in Japan. Sergeant Jernigan first becamc interested in missionary work when he reported to Camp Gifu, Japan, for duty with the Third Ma rine Division. He spent much of his off-duty time assisting mission aries and aiding children in near by orphanages. In June 1935, he helped organize a drive to raiae funds for a new church in Gifu. The church was subsequently built and dedicated in Sept. IMS. Jernigan returned to the US and Cherry Point in January MM. He hid previously served aboard the air station from November 1952 to September 1954. A native of Savannah, Ga., Jer nigan first enlisted in the Marine Corps July IS, 19?. He is the son of Mr. Thomas J. Jernigan, Reeds viile, Ga., and is married to the former Miu Kate Porter, of Col lins, Ga. They live in Newport with their six children, Robert J. Jr., 14; Jessica, 12; Hugh, 11; Kenneth, 5; Elizabeth, 2; and Mary, 1 mo. I have loved you." Jesus didn't say love the "white mm" as I have loved him, but love the world as I have loved the world. ?Your pastor may say that the Negro is all right in his place, but who is your pastor? Is he Jesus Christ, the Son of the "Living God"? You have probably beard people say, "I don't want to be in Heaven, If Negroes are going to be there". That's just fine, if that's what they choose; there'll be just as many, if not more in Hell with them. The reason Christ is not in Christmas is because Christ is not in the hearts of the world today. There are thousands of "church members" that are going to burn in Hell, because they knew not Jesus in their heart. If you have your doubts about there being a Hell read Revela tions, then look around at some of the world's people, where but Hell can they go? You may think you're fine, if you've been good all of your life; but Jesus said, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." How can we put Christ back in Christmas? The first thing to do, when putting Christ back in Christ mas is to put Him in your heart. To put Jesus in your heart you must do three things. First you must realize the need of a Savior. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.? Rom. 3:23. For the wages of sin is death: but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.? Rom. 6:23. Secondly you must repent. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions: so iniquity shall not be your ruin. Ezek. 18:30. Except ye repent, ye shall ' all likewise perish. Luke 13:5. Him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. John 6:37. The third step to salvation is through faith receive Christ as your personal Savior. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved. Acts 16:31. He that helieveth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believcth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. John 3:36. Jesus stands at your door knock ing now, ,will you let Him in. Just open your heart and let Him in. If you have accepted Christ, let Him guide your life, as well as your Christmas. This paper is not meant to cause any trouble between anyone, or any number of persons, but is writ ten in hope of drawing someone closer to Jesus. If the country we live in would turn to God, and pray together as a Christian na tion we could pray the world out of its present state. How can anyone think the US can do anything without God? We have heard many speeches con cerning the world's problems, but not once have our leaders asked us to get on our knees. May God Have Mercy on Our Falling Away Nation.
