ConneL' BAPTIST CHURCH NEWS The Dead Sea represents death because there is no outlet. That same thing happens to us spiritual ly unless there is an outlet in service. *‘Ai the Father hath sent me, even so send I you" will be the text of the message Sunday morning in the Baptist church by the pastor, Rev. L. S. Clark. “OUR SUPREME TASK" will be the subject. The above words of our Lord spoken just after the resur rection are significent for two reasons. 1. First, He makes Himself equal with the Father in claim ing the right to What the Father does. 2. In the second place, He ais- sociates his disciples with Him- self in promoting the eternal purpose of God in world redem>- tioh. He is Divine, and we are hu man. He came to reveal the Father, we are to proclaim this revela tion. He came to provide redemp tion, we are to preach redemption. Our Lord it emphasizing that his mission and ours is the same. To carry out his commission we must have an adequate motive—a con quering spiirt, and be sufficient ly empower^ for our work. If we have failed Him in the past, He comes to us again sa^ng, “Arise, .Let’s Go.” No evening service, but Train ing Union for ages as usual at 6:30 p. m. Come and make much of this training hour.
