HOWELL Recently, our nation commemo rated a day which stands out in the history of the United States— Independence Day. We are proud of this day because of the rights and privileges which were given every individual when the Declara tion of Independence was signed in 1776. It was on this day that our nation won freedom from, our mother country and freedom of speech, worship, and press. This was a great day because it gave us these liberties, but there is an even greater day than that of Independence—the day that Christ died to liberate us from the bond age of sin. In the beginning, Cod created man perfect, but man fell and, therefore, was doomed for hell. He needed a Redeemer to redeem him from sin and bring him back to God. It was for this reason that' Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to this world to die for man. Jesus came “to seek and to save that which was lost" and “that we might have life and that we might have it more abundantly.” He was not forced to give up His life, but He freely laid it down for us at Calvary. Since Christ died at Calvary, it has come to hold a dear spot in the hearts of the Christians. We love Calvary because we know that there is only one way Home and that is by Calvary through the cross. We love this place because it is here that, we find eternal life. Today, if you are carrying the burden of sin, all you need to do is come to Jesus and He will free you because He Is our Burden Bearer. There is perfect freedom in Jesus because “he whom the Son makes free is free indeed,” John 8:38. , Calvary is. the place to find for giveness of sins and peace of mind —which is for all people—because it is not God’s will that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Therefore, today, let’s make use of the benefits of Calvary. ■ News of tbs Negro Population 3 #T Mn.
