The trouble that France caus ed there inevitably left a legacy of hatred. Prof. Robson further stated that many countries have bowed out gracefully from the “sore spots.” but hatred has been left as a re sult of their presence there. The speaker ;;ave the back ground of the first Negroes to come to America. It was about 1525 that Negroes were first introduced with in the present limits of the United States. These were brought to a colony near what is now James town, Va. In August, 1619. a Dutch vessel brought to Jamestown twen ty Negroes, who were sold into ser vitude.

The temptation of jumping ahead in the lunch room just because you are “Mr, Senior of 1958.' Yes, many temptations confront a Senior—and they look just as in viting as insects do to spiders.

We in the 20th century are not she only one who question God. We find that He was deeply dis turbed about things he saw hap pening about him. He had been taught to believe m God. He won dered “Why does God allow such sinners to exist?” “I will stand and watch and see what God will say to me ” We try to cram God into man’s mode of thinking God will answer any of our questions that we ask if *.ti place ourselves into a re sponsive and listening mood is a receptive mood. “The just shall live bv tln> faith” was God’s response. God is l ove There is no denial There is suffering. Only faith can reconcile one to the other. 8 REASONS FOR SUFFERING The three main reasons for suf fering are 1. Ignorance, 2. Foolish ness and Folly and 3. Sin. When we refer to ignorance we mean lack of knowledge and not stupidity. It is a matter of a lack of knowledge not knowing as to the remedy of suffering such as impro per diet, drinking, superstition, etc. Alone with ignorance we place folly and foolishness, tn this our enlightened age we have been shown what is right but we dis regard what is right for example we continue to rush which we know is against ns phisical. Rushing has caused heart trouble and mental Illness which were two of the lead ing causes of death rates of last year. And now comes sin. His disobed ience to will of God is considered, The ultimate wages of sin is death.
