Appointment With God 1
v By TERRY JONES
“Therefore be ye also ready:
for in such an hour as ye think
not the Son of man cometh.”
—Matthew 24:24.
You have an appointment with
God. ; The time of this appoint
ment '• is not known. Every so
often someone will foretell the
end cjjf time, but they have al
ways failed and they always
wijl. Even the angels in heav
en don’t know when the end
will come, no one but the Fath
er knows. -- ,
Although Christ did give us
some hints as to when He shall
appear as a thief in the night.
Christ tells us in the days that
the end of time is near the sun
shall be darkened,-and’-the moon
shaU_ not give her light, and
tae stars of heaven shall fall,
and the powers that are in heav
en shall be shaken. On May
19, 1780, in the middle of the
day the sun blacked out. Can
dles were lighted in many
homes, birds were silent and
went to roost. Many thought
the day of judgment was at
hand. On that same night the
darkness was intense because the
moon did not give her light.
Ghrist said after this sign the
stars shall fall from heaven. On
Noyember 13, 1833 the most
wonderful exhibition of shooting
ssars the world has ever seen
occurred. Again many thought
the day of judgment was at

the quiet twilight, listen to na
• ture’s song all around us? Do
: we ever see a sunset, enjoy
quietly an interesting book? Do
we ever read the golden lines
of poets, spend a moment or two
, with the world’s best minds?
■ To be caught with a book of
i poems in our hands today, it
seems, is almost a criminal of
fense. Yet, in these things may
one find an inner peace, find
pleasure and enjoyment, that
cannot be found in today’s blat
ant crudities, and our eternal
and ceaseless struggle for the
material. We strive to fill our
pockets and not our hearts and
minds; but with full pockets our
lives can be bankrupt. Grand
ma and grandpa may have been
poor in pocket, but they were
rich ift spiritual values: and rich
in a contentment and satisfac
tion that I doubt this generation
will ever enjoy.
The United States, according
to military observers and writ
hand.
Christ gave more signs such
as the distress of nations, men’s
hearts failing, marrying and giv
ing in marriage and even more
than these.
But even if the end of time
is far away, I dare say your
appointment with God will be
less than a hundred years from
now, because your physical body
: s going to stop work. But your
soul—the real you will continue
to live forever.
The place of your appoint
ment will be before the great
judgment seat of God when a
revelation of your life will be
itretched before you. What will
'» decided here? Yous soul-will
rither be black with sin or
■vhite as snow washed by the
>lood of Christ
Is Christ your saviour, and
Lord or ruler of your life? Do
you deny yburself to please
him? Are you ready for your
appointment with God?
Honorary Society
Meets In Edenton
Pi Chapter of the Delta Kap

ng of the year in Edenton on
Saturday, May 6, at which time

ers, is preparing to fight the
wrong war. We are spending
millions on armament of all
types, from A-bombs to cap pis
tols, in the event of a shooting
war; while our- potential enem
ies are waging a cold war with
propaganda, subversion, infiltra
tion—and seemingly are slowly
winning over the small and
backward nations. If the com
munists eventually emerge the
victors with the United States
on the losing end, we will be
the first country to lose a war
by practicing good intentions,
right motives and good will.
Why don’t we fight fire with
fire? Because we are hamper
ed by traditional principals and
scruples the Reds scorn and hold
: n contempt. As I see it, we’d
better discard a few principals
and become a wee bit unscrupu
lous and morally blind .in. om
eye, if we and our way of life
are to survive.

Selections from “Science and
lea.th with Key to the Scrip

nclude (pp. 234, 235): “Evil
thoughts and aims reach no
farther and do no more harm
than one’s belief permits. Evil
thoughts, lusts, and malicious
purposes cannot go forth, like
vandering .pollen, from one hu

unsuspected lodgment, if virtue

From the Bible will be read
these verses from I Peter (5):
‘Be sober, be vigilant; because
your adversary the devil, as a
roaring lion, walketh about,
seeking whom he may devour:
Whom resist steadfast in the
faith, knowing that the same
afflictions are accomplished in

Soil Testing
Saves Money
Testing the soil can save
money for you.
Take the experience of 32
farmers in Bladen County—all
newly enrolled in the Farm and
Home Development program.
'These 32 farmers saved a to
tal of $2,115 on their fertilizer
cost,” says F. E. Leathers, as
sistant. Negro agent. “The.sav.-.
ings resulted directly from soil
testing”.
Edward Autry of Elizabeth
town, Route 2, saved $75. The
average saving for the 32 farms
was $66.
“The most significant lactor
behind this saving is that tnese
farmers will fertilize and top
dress their crops better this
year,” says Leathers.
Let Edward Autry speak for
soil testing:
“Soil testing provides the most
I accurate way to take the guess
work out of crop fertilization,
because it carries results of soil
fertility research to individual
farms—in terms of specific lime
and fertilizer requirements for
each field and crop.”
