Revelation Seminar Sponsored By
Pembroke Seventh Day Adventist Church
Graduates 27 Students
On Nov. 17. I9H5 gradua
tion ceremonies were held tor
27 of the more than 50 people
who started the Revelation
Seminar recently sponsored
by the Pembroke- Seventh
day Advcntisl Church. The
graduation speaker was Pas
tor Harr\ Robinson, author of
the seminar. The local pastor.
Charles W. Godfrey, was the
instructor and participated in
the awarding of the diplomas
arid special awards for atten
dance and for those who had
high scores on their quiz
envelopes.
The Basic Course was 24
lessons long, and covered
many of tire basic areas that
needed to be understood
before the Advanced Course
could be taken. The class was
excited about learning the
things wTiiien in Revelation.
Many of the class members
stated their amazement and
appreciation at what they had
learned and weff taught in
such a short time*.
From the beginning, the
class was told that neatly half
J
nl ihc Book ni Rcvelaiion is
borrowed from other parts of
the Bible, not only in symbols
used, but in actual quotations
used. This meant that the
class members had to use all
the Scriptures in determining
the answers to the seminar
lessons that they were requir
ed to hive completed each
evening prior to the class
study.
Many of the students found
new meaning in the things of
God as a result of taking and
completing the course of
study. Certainly the words of
one religious author arc true
when she wrote:
"In the Revelation arc
portrayed the deep things of
God. The very name given to -
its inspired pages. "The Rev
elation.' contradicts the state
ment that this is a sealed
book. A Revelation is some
thing revealed. The Lord
Himself revealed to His ser
vant the mysteries contained
in this book, ant^^c designs
that they shall be open 10 the
study of all. Its truths are ?
f " *' * ] f
addressed lo those living in
the last days of this earth's
history...
"Those whose hearts are
open to the reeeption of truth
will be enabled to understand
its teachings. _ and will be
grafted the blessing pro
mised 'o those who 'hear ihe
words of this prophecy, and
keep those things which are
written therein.'
Those graduating from the
Basic Course are as folhiws:
Eric Austin. Anna Blue. Dan
Blue. Maniw Bray. Emma Jan
Bullard. Don Cufnmings.
Carolyn Daniel. EUdie Dar
ton. Mary Davis, Roy Lee
Davis. Myrtle Dcese. Prentice
Floyd. Marie Hallendorfer.

man. Lorainc Tuck. Teresa

Our sinccrcsi congratula
tions go out lo these gradu
ates. Many ol them under
stand not only the Book of
Kevelation better, but now
have a new respect, love and
appreciation for the whole
Bible.
If you are interested in
taking a Kevelation Seminar
or if you would like to talk
about the Bible and better

concepts and how they relate
to your life. Pastor Godfrey
would be delighted to talk

4 You Have No Excuses,* Says
Health Manpower Director
Concerning Financial Aid, Sat
Scores
. . ; :? \ ? . g
Dr. El Lavonia Allison,
director of the N.C. Health
Manpower Development Pro
gnun, speaks to high school
students in a special confer
ence at Pembroke State Uni
versity.
"Today you have no ex
cuses."
This was the theme empha
sized again and again by Dr.
El Lavonia Allison, director of
the N.C. Health Manpower
Development Program of
Chapel Hill, in speaking to
some 100 high school students
and eight high school coun
selors at JVmbroV* 9?et?
University Thursday.
She was speaking about
excuses for not having enough
money or not doing well on
scholastic aptitude tests in
"getting into college."
"Money is available
through the Pell Grant and
other means," said Dr. Alli
son, who supplied each stu
dent and counselor a handful
of information concerning fin
ancial aid sources.
In pointing out the sources,
she asked defiantly: "Do you
have any excuses about
money?" And the students
said in chorus: "No!"
As she displayed book after
book about financial aid, she
asked: "How many of you
have ever heard about this?"
The audience was silent
"There have been student
aid programs since 1945, but
many are just learning about
them," she said.
This is one reason why the
three-hour Health Careers
Information/Academic Skills
Enrichment Conference was
held: to inform the students of
their opportunities.
She spoke of the many
scholarships available, includ
ingthe Morehead Scholarship
at UNC-Cnapel Hill, which
she said is worth $37,000.
"And it has nothing to do with
reed " she said
Dr. Allison pointed out that
books costing $7 or $8 are
available on the scholastic
aptitude test and other infor
mation. "What do you place
your values on? What does a
pretty hair-do cost? Why not
miss a hair-do one month and
use that money to make
yourself pretty on the inside,"
she said, referring to the
students' brains.
She said succeeding "is not
nature- it's nurture."
She urged young people to
take the PSAT (preliminary
scholastic aptitude test) in the
ninth or 10th grade in high
school.
"How does a basketball
player succeed in putting the
ball in the basket?" she
asked. "By practice! Ask
yourself, 'How often have I
practiced taking tests?' It is
not that you can't do well on
tests. But you haven't pre
pared."
Dr. Allison urged any stu
dents who haven't started
practicing to start today. "Get
a couple of these books--and
your SAT score will go up.
The books include the kinds of
questions asked."
She compared doing well on
the SAT to getting one's
fin vers Ver..*e " kt t\\
go in to get your driver s
license without reading the
book, do you? If you make
some mistakes, you take it
again and again until you
pass, studying the book each
time before taking the test.
The same should be true ol
taking the SAT in preparing
yourself for college."
She than asked everyone
who hadn't scored 1,000 on
the SAT to listen closely.
"Remember the Lord passed
out good brains. Don't say: !
can't do it' That signities
failure. Remember what a
coach says when his team
goes into battle: 'You can
win!" And you can in the same
way."
.Jt was an inspirational
conference for high school
students who walked away as
did their counselors-with a
wealth of information about
how to succeed in health
careers or any careers.
A New Beginning!
Our thanks for
your kind support
in the past. We're
looking forward to
continuing
knowing and
serving you in the
New Year ahead.
