W. McGowen wa1 hostess to the jnembers of the BMG Sew ing Ciub on Tuesday afternoon. The recular sewing bee was enjoy ed, after which the hostess served a tempting; chicken salad plate Dr. Foreman PLEASANT VIEW- THE FACTS of Jesus' death were simple. They nre told in the four Gospels without rirnmatics and without tears. Yet ' the drama is there, stark and terrible; and only the haVd of heart can read it with out tears. There is a deeper question than wiat happened Why did it happen? The first Chirslians were forced to think about the crucifixion. They all knew it was no legend. It was so. But they were haunted, as we are, with the question, Why? Here was a person whose teach ing was truth, whose touch was health, whose life was love. You would have thought the world would welcome such a man, and give him the highest honors in its power. But instead, all it had for him were nails and thorns and a cross. Why? If God, who sees all things, knew that even his Son would come 4o no better end than a death of shame, why did God allow Jesus to be born, much less send him into the world, the world where the cross was waiting? No Other End THERE WAS, of course, "histori cal reasons" why Jesus was killed. If we used the words "mur dered" or "lynched" it would be nearer the truth. Jesus' death, irom one point of view, was both a tragedy and a crime, and the Gos pel stories show this. Jesus died be cause Pilate was a spineless man. Jesus died because the priests of Jerusalem saw that if this man won, they would lose, and they would commit murder rather than be defeated. Jesus died because the Pharisees had closed minds and would not listen to truth if they did not think of it first. He died because Judas was a traitor, because his friends were cowards and even the best or tnem dared to show their faces only after ho was dead. He died because the Jewish people had their minds set on one wri u mwamu, Jesus turned out to be quite another sort, they would have none oi mm. Being altogether the sort of person hn was. in that kind of world, at that particular time and place, you could sav. as Jesus nimseii cuu, that the Son of Man "had to" die. rT.nW S4rSB.l No other end was possible. There was no help for it . . excent to turn cowara ana hide; and if he had been capable of that, he would not have been the Christ we know at au. Personals Magnolia News - - Mr. and Mrs. Henrv F.

The Chris tian church has always believed, even befpre these stories of the Knipiflvlnn were ever written, wai the death of Christ was in the plan of God. In fact, it is at the heart of God's plan for mankind. It is by the death of Christ that God reconciles man and .brings men back to himself. ' The Christian church believes and teaches that Christ died for us, that Is, for you and for me. We believe that this was not ' Imply Jesus' own Idea, some " thing God had not thought of till . Jesus suggested it. We believe that this w'jS the in tention of God "from before the foundation of the world." The God who is over all, works through all things, even very evil things, to make hls-tove known.
