ProphetV Column Salvation Conies By Revelation” °y j. n. uttie We saw in our last study that as Cleopas and his fellow disciples were on the road to Emnnras^en—th«~ third day following the crucifixion of Christ, the Lord joined Himself to them and they told Him why they were sad. And we saw that their eyes were "holden” or veiled and they didn’t even recognize the resurrected Christ as He walked along the way with them expounded on the Scriptures concerning Christ beginning from Moses and going all through the prophets. Now, you may say; 'Bro. Little, 1 wish I could sit at the feet of Christ and have Him teach me as He did to the two on TnBToad— to Emmaus." Well, that is what happens under Holy Spirit conviction (Jn. 16:7-11), If you reject Holy Spirit conviction now, you would have rejected Christ then, your old natural heart hates Christ. Let's continue as we see -the Lord and the two near ing Emmaus, "And they drew nigh unto the village, - -Wfaithej^he^went: and he made as though he wouTcT have gone further. But they constraint him, saying;—■ Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them. And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.” (Lk. 24:28-30). Even though the two did know this was the resur rected ChfiSt, HiS teaching them and opening their understanding that they might understand the Scriptures. But His teach ing was so powerful and convincing that when He imade as if He would go on, they constrained Him to have supper with them, and the Lord went in and sat at the supper table and took some bread, broke it, giving His blessing upon it. And now I want you to listen and open your eyes, if you can, ask the Lord to open them. Listen arid lootr at a truth that will bless you for all eternity; “AND THEIR EYES WERE OPENED, AND THEY KNEW HIM; and he vanished out of their sight.” (Lk. 24:31). Right J.M. Little ' Second In A Series here is where Christ, the resurrected Lord of the Cross and of Glory was REVEALED to their ..hearts. They did not know who, He was "until He REVEALED Hismelf to them! The only way you can khow'the'restifTected Christ is for Him to be revealed to your heart! You can read, talk, and uiuut about Chrtst, _ but you'll never know Him until He is revealed to your heart. They had listened and their hearts burned for joy as He had expounded on the prophecies concerning Christ from Moses through the prophets. But they could not know Him as the rcsui ictted Christ until Ue revealed Himself to them at suppertime. Now, has Christ been REVEALED to your heart? If He hasn’t, then you do not know Him, you are not saved. When I was under con viction, I read, prayed, studied, until I burned my brains out trying to get to Christ. It seemed as if I became worse as the days went by. But, oh! What a blessed moment when Christ was revealed to my heart. I was glad as was the Two ih Emmaus. The great religious professors of our day have missed Christ altogether. They have intellectual knowledge of the Lord. But intellectual knowledge of the Lord is not sufficient to get you to Heaven, my friend. You must be brought to Christ Himself, He must be re vealed to your heart or all is in vain and lost with you. You cannot know Christ until He is revealed to your heart. Now you let that soak in. The greatest thing in air the universe is just to know the revealed Christ. Do you know Him1’ 1 am glad the Lord revealed Himself to me. And the things I know about myselfv I neither learned them from man neither was I taught them from man, I learned them by revelation. The blessed Holy Spirit opened my understanding as He did the disciples there in Lk. mai i mignt under stand the Scriptures. When ~IKe-blessed—Hoty-Sprr* opens your understanding of the Scriptures, He re veals your heart and adamic nature to you. You come to see and acknow ledge just what a wicked, low-down, hell-deserving sinner you are. And you realize that if the Lord doesn’t have mercy on you you’ll go on to Hell where you belong. When you take your place before God as a lost sinner, a guilty sinner, then you free the Hand of mercy of God to save you. " If you didnT come- to— "Christ the way I’ve laid out in these messages on “Salvation By Revela tion,’’ then you didn’t make it to Christ. Did you make it to Christ? Or do you just i 81 Churches Compete For Top Prize Continued from Page 1 and a member of the Senior Choir.. Employed by Stanley Products, Miss Kiser en joys sewing and working with young people.

Gray: New Low Income Families To Benefit From Bond Issue By Mac Thrower Post Staff Writer Low to moderate income families in Charlotte will benefit from the N.C. Housing Finance Agency's approval of the sale of $52 million of revenue bonds to finance housing for over 1,400 families and indivi duals. The Multifamily Bond Issue, authorized by the Agency's Board of Direc tors, will fund 29 apart ment complexes in loca tions across the state, in cluding Grier Park and Westside in Charlotte. Twenty-seven of the pro jects will be new construc tion and two are rehabili tations of existing struc tures; the bond issue should generate approxi mately 800 new jobs and over $125 million for the North Carolina economy during the next two years The Bond sale will en able the NCHFA to provide just over II percent inter est loans to developers. The projects are eligible for Section 8 rent subsidies and are designed to aid low and moderate income persons. The low interest rate was made possible because of innovative partnership with Wachovia Bank, which provided a Letter of Credit that allows investors to turn In their bonds at nnnT 'ortgtnat purchase price after the fifth year. The permanent mortgage interest rate is just over 11 percent on the 40-year mortgages, two to three percent lower than the tax exemnt interest rate that would have been possible without the bank’s partici pation. This helps provide lower rents to tenants and reduced need for federal subsidy funds, according to Gary Paul Kane, Execu tive Director of the Agency. Construction is sched uled to begin in 60 days Projects, locations and developers in Charlotte are: Grier Park, a Limited Partnership--50 units Family and Westside Apartments-Westside Associates--50 units Family.

Mary Magdalene was the first one Christ revealed Him self to after His resurrec tion. She would not leave theUuhb but siood pqtside - weeping. Mary loved the Lord and could not leave. This was the same Mary the Lord cast seven demons out of. As Mary wept (read Jn. 20), she stooped down and looked into the sepulchre and saw two angels, one at the head of the tomb and one at the foot where Christ had lain. They asked her why she wept and she told them it was because they had taken away her Lord And when she said that she turned herself back and saw Christ standing but didn’t know it was Christ. And tHe Ldffl"asked her;— ‘‘Woman, why weepest thou?” She thought he was the gardener. And Mary said to Him; “...Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.” (Jn. 20:15). Now you listen again as for eternity;: ‘JESUS SAITH UNTO HER, MARY She turned herself, and saith - unto him. -Rahhoni, which r is to say," Master." (vs. 16) Right here is where Christ was REVEALED to Mary as her resurredted Lord and Master, praise the Lord. Like the two on the Road to Emmaus she did not know the Lord until He was REVEALED to her. Mary thought Christ was the gardener at first. But as her heart yearned for Christ above everything ~anth-cvcrybody, Chriot ro— vealed Himself to her. What grace! Yes, it’s grace upon grace when Christ is revealed to any sinner. Has Christ been revealed to you? He has to me apd I’ll never cease to thank Him and I’ll never forget it. Mary reached out to touch the Lord but He told her; “...Touch me not; fori am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my bre thren, and say unto them, I ascended unto my Father, and ^rour Father;- ana my God, and your God." (vs 17) That’s shouting ground. Praise the Lord. Here was the resurrected Christ who had forgiven Mary of all her sins. ADS All classified advertising is payable in advance.
