Dr. W.J.B. Livingston’s
inspiring message was
“How To Be Victorious in 1
Living", based on Acts -
24:24-27. Paid is the speaker
in our scripture. He was one
hundred per cent opposed to
Jews aatil he met Him on
therund to Damascus. After*
mat experience, ne reamed
, that qvfol fulfilled per
, feetly the prophesies of all
and thereafter he
proclaimed me w
fill Living Messiah
wherever lie want. ItoadevO
And hfoiwn
people to turn against him.
When die people turned on
him, he was seat to the city
of Caesarea, a beautiful city
where (he governor lived.
This is wh«4-e Felix lived. He
perhaps is a symbol of the
arch politician-talked out of
both sides his mouth -
crooked as a person could'
be. By his devious ways, he .
had moved himself from
slavery to a position of great
importance. He was \i
gentile but had his eye on I
Drusilia, a Jewess, and I
managed to get her' away I
from her husband.
Is there hope for a person I
like this? I believe there is if I
he confesses his sins and I
accepts Jesus as Lord and I
Savior.
Felix, with his wife I
Drusilia, sent for Paul and I
heard him concerning faith I
in Christ. Paul did not argue I
-he reasoned with him about I
the sensibility, success and I
victory of doing things right. I
Righteousness and I
godliness go together.
How do we become right I
with God? “STRUGGLE” is J
the title of a file that I have I
about getting my life into a I
right plane with God. It’s • I
worth every bit of the I
struggle to get right with I
God. Paul was talking to two I
people whose lives were I
very wrong because he I
wanted them to get right I
with God.
Temperance was the next I
point brought out by Paul. I
Temperance in ALL things, I
including temper, eating I
and dealing with people • I
particularly today, in race I
relations. Recently, during I
school recess, a man came I
into the playground and I
began to blow up colorful I
balloons for the children, I
who had a great time I
floating them in the air. The I
bell rang and children ran 1
back into the building - I
except for one little black I
boy. He asked “Mister, if I
you blew up a black balloon, I
would it float?”. The man I
looked at the small boy who I
had questioned him and said I
“It’s not the color of the I
balloon that makes it float, I
it’s what’s inside”.
Paul’s next point was I
Judgement . Judgement goes I
on all the time. If you don’t I
paint your house, it begins to I
peel; if we don’t keep our I
minds active, they’ll I
become stale. God will I
judge us according to every E
secret thing that we do. He E
will hold us accountable for 1
every word we speak con- I
trary to his will. We cannot I
escape judgement. Felix |
almost decided to go I
Christ’s way. The devil said I
“Don’t do it”. He let the I
moment slide, the devil I
moved in and Felix never, I
never found that “con- I
venient day”.
We must become like I
putty in God’s hands. Let I
Him “break up the ground” I
of our lives into “fallowed I
ground” and plant seeds of I
righteousness in us so there 1
will be victory in our lives I
and no matter what the I
circumstances, we will be so I
in tune with God that we will I
be happy and can turn that I
which is evil into something I
good.
