WILBORNE HARRELL A
A few years ago I wrote a
feature for 'Hie Herald, in which
I attempted to tell the story
of the development of rocketry
and missiles, and man’s poten
tial ability to some day cast
off the shackles of the earth
and penetrate outer space—pos
sibly to the moon and even to
( the far away planets. The story,
* incidentally, was titled, Reach
ing For The Stars, and in it I
made the statement that Wern
her von Braun and Professor
i Goddard had contributed more
to rocketry, and had furthered,
this science more, than any oth
/er men—in fact, they were the
parents of this comparatively
new scientific development. I
further predicted that von Braun
would be one of the outstanding
men of the coming space age.
And now it seems, my predic
tions are well on the way to
proving themselves to be true—
if the dreams and work of von
Braun materialize to their full-
Did Jesus Christ Arise?
By TERRY JONES
If Christ did not arise from 1
the dead then we are still lost ;
in our sins. If He did not arise
there is no God, no Heaven, sin
is all power and when death i
comes life is over for eternity.
If there is no resurrection Jesus 1
Christ was the greatest imposter <
the world has ever known.
I believe we have proof that
our faith in the resurrection is
not in vain. The empty tomb i
of Jesus is not a definite proof
of the resurrection, but it is a
strong testimony. If the body
of Jesus had been stolen the,,
linen clothes that covered His
body would have probably been
scattered on the floor of the
tomb, it is believed that the
clothes Peter and the other dis

est capacity.
Today, after several years, von
Braun has indeed contributed
more to the development of
rocketry than any other scien
tist, and in addition to his tech
nical knowledge of this new
science, he has also brought a
keen mind and an. imagination
that reaches beyond the bound
aries of the earth and dares to
reach out and touch the stars.
And now, to tell this fasci
nating Story, von Braun has
written a book, which coinci
dentally is also titled, Reaching
For The Stars, in which he tells
the story of his life from boy
hood, and traces the develop
ment of rocketry and how it
took hold of his scientifically
active imagination. And the
book further traces, step by
step, the road that man is tak
ing that eventually will lead to
the conquering of space. It is
von Braun’s firm belief, and in
which he has an unshakeable
ciple saw were in the same po-
I. . \
sition as if the body of Jesus
were still under them. His
body was transformed from a
material body to a spiritual
body. The disciples saw the
empty tomb and the .grave
clothes and believed.
We also have human testimony
of the resurrection of our Lord.
He lived on the earth forty days
after His resurrection. During
this time His disciples saw Him,
heard Him, and handles Him.
These three of the five senses
give strong evidence that Jesus
did rise from the grave.
In the last hours before" the
crucifixion His disciples denied
Him. After the resurrection
they were very bold in pro
faith, that some day, and not
too far distant, man will reach
this star-studded goal.
By all means read Reaching
For The Stars, if you are inter
ested in rockets, and what has
been accomplished and will be
accomplished, to conquer this!
last challenging frontier.
Last week I commented on 1
the fact that a certain place of)
business furnished no ash trays, |
and the customer had to snuff!
his smoke on the floor—or else
put it in his pocket. Now, as
a result of this little squib, ij
have been promised an ash tray,'
all for my very own . . . The
motivating idea behind this lit
tle tempest in an ash tray, was'
that I was reluctant to repay |
the excellent service and per-j
sonal consideration I received in
this store by deliberately mess
ing up the floor.
No compromise with Communism!
claiming Christ, and all but one|
died as a martyr for the sake|
of their Lord. If the resurrec
tion was a lie Christianity would i
have died. It would never have
grown to the heights it has
reached in the world today.
A very learned lawyer once
started to write a book to deny!
the resurrection. As he began
to study deep into the story he I
found the evidence so powerful I
that he himself left the life of
sin and became a Christian. He 1
then wrote one of the best
books on the resurrection known
to the world.
Yes, Jesus Christ arose. He
is alive today to everyone that
will open their heart’s door and
let Him come in and reign over
their life.
