Prophet^ Column "llie World By Wisdom Knew Not God” wisdom is your thinking, reasoning and intellectual and educational ideas. Salvation is in two parts; knowing yourself first, and then knowing Christ as yo^r Lord and your Sa viqur. It is under the con vioting power and work of thi Holy Spirit that a sin -Wfc lg brought in know himself as God knows him. If you are never brought to knfcw yourself, you will neye^want to know and longwer Christ. It is only wljen the Holy Spirit throws back the skylight of your soul, letting you see what a lost, guilty, wretched, condemned cri minal you are. And it is thtre that you come face to fa$e with the truth about your lost and ruined con diGon, and come to see an(i know that you must get to Christ or forever perish. I wish that multitudes of yop could get your heart opened now to the truth about your lost condition. Aflsrt from this, seeing yourself under the convict ing work of the Holy Spirit, y oil’ll die and go to Hell without warning. It was : j HOWTO I SUBSCRIBE TO THE POST?

Little said by some witness of a convicted murderer’s death just recently that when he was dying there came » surprising look on his face. That surprising look on his face was the result of his seeing that he was going down into an eternal Hell. And there was nothing he could do about it. Now you had better think seriously on these thingB YOU—too, will Ann day go out Into eternity. The multitudes of you are trying to drown out all thoughts of eternity and what you will face there. But you cannot drown it out completely because God said: “And it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment,’’ (Heb. 9:27. I attended a funeral re cently. The preacher did riot lay on the hearts of his listeners the importance of knowing Christ. We are told in the Word of God: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord. You are either going to die in the Lord, which means that you are saved, or you are going to die out of the Lord, which means that you were not saved. Which will it be in your case? I’m glad and thank the Lord that whe ther I pass out of this world by a natural death, or when Christ comes, I’ll depart in Christ. All because the Lord saved me by His grace apart from any works or wisdom of my own. I had no wisdom of my own that would get me to Christ. My so-called wis dom was sinking me deep er and deeper in sin. Let me ask you this question: flave you met the Lord?

As much a part of this seasonal cycle are the Spring fashions. This time around the emphasis is on femininity, achieved through clean lines and an elegant un derstatement of color. Pales and pastels, soft brights and neutrals fill the fashion pages and store windows. In makeup this season, less color is definitely more as the perfect complement to the easy, relaxed styles. The focus is on smoky eyes emphasized just enough as they peek flir tatiously from beneath the season’s most important fash ion accessory—the wide brimmed hat. -To add drama to voiir eyes, accent them with a black eye lining pencil; Avon’s Ultra Wear 12-Hour Eyelining Pen cil is easy to use. Draw a thin line and then smudge down to a soft; shadowy accent. Off set with paler cheeks and lips. Light-handed applications of your favorite blush and lip colors will give you the sea son’s look.... your way. Theclean lines and pale col orations of Spring’s fashions are just right for jewelry with a strong focus. “Black, white and gold remain important ac cents in accessories to pull to gether major trends in Spring apparel,” says award-win ning Paris fashion designer, Louis Feraud. Thus they are the basis for Avon’s “Blos som of Spring” jewelry col lection inspired by Feraud. 1 he necklace is fashioned with three goldtone leaves and two white flowers sus pended from a goldtone chain. The earrings are a goldtoned sculptured leaf. The bold outlines of the “Blossom of Spring” pieces create the perfect balance for the simple lines that will pre dominate in fashions this Spring. “Blossom of Spring” jewelry is available only from your Avon Representative.
