Religion Sunday School lesson J ? ? Jermiah Romans 1: U-M ItMMllUl We have been studying a series of ! lessons on how God reveals Himself J to mankind, and noted in last week's J lesson that the ultimate revelation of ? God was His Son, Jesus. f ; | We begin today a series of four ? lessons on "God Redeems His '? People." Today's lesson is entitled J "The Problem: Sin." It really is. ; When we look at all the trouble spots J in the world today we may ac ? curately say it is happening because '< of sin and evil in the hearts of people. ? ' When we see men fighting and ) ! dying over some barren piece of \ land; when we see children being ; caught up in these clashes, starving ? for lack of food and in need of shelter, ? we may surely say it is because of sin land rebelliousness against God and ; His commands. God does not will this to happen. God wants mankind to live a righteous life. "Holy and acceptable unto ISm." The Apostle Paul, writing the epistle ot the church located in Rome said, "All have sinned and come short of the Golory of God." (Romans 3:23) Through Adam and Eve's sin in the Garden of Eden, man has lived in a state of separtatioc from God. God's will and purpose is to redeem all those who want to be redeemed ? those who will accept His plan of redemption which He set forth. Before the coming of Christ, God had laws and commands; and if the people lived by and kept His com mandments, they would be a righteous people, God's people. Most people, however, would not live by them; or if they did, it was on an "on again" "off again" basis. So God sent His own Son to pay the penalty for man's sins. He (Jesus), who knew no sin, took on Himself the sin of the whole world ? put. present and future ? that through Jesus' death on the cross, man could be reunited with the Heavenly Father. Yes, the sin of man is and has always been the problem causing human suffering in the world. The first Scripture given for today's lesson comes from the Book of Jermiah and deals with the Children of Israel. Basic Sin Jermiah 2: >-13 Sin's deadly work was far ad vanced in Jerusalem when Jeremiah spoke for God. The time was about 600 BC and about 800 years since the people had left Egyptian slavery. Jermiah was trying, by holding forth the Word of God, to stop the flood of evil that would surely bring destruction to the Children ol Israel. We should understand that we serve a God of Love and Mercy, Who tries to direct us in the right paths. However, God is also a God of justice who will bring judgement on people who refuse His words of warning. Jeremiah was pleading for the people to change their ways so to escape the punishment. The people had been chasing after idol worship and false gods. They were breaking the first thrfee of God's commandments. They were punished. God used mighty Babylon to take them captive for about 40 years. We need to think twice abut following after false gods of our age. It can only lead to destruction. . Church news ?

In tones of amber, red, and golden brown They come to earth, and then, by winds flung high, Are tossed about, each one an impish clown. These leaves that graced the trees, now piled awry, Their work complete are quite content to die. So short a time from bud to flaming crown, For things to grow, to serve, to say good-bye ! The hand Divine that painted every leaf Has work for each of us within His plan ; We know not if our life be long or brief, We only need to do the best we can ; In simple faith to laugh and love and pray, And like the leaves, to serve and go away.

I have discovered a quick and nutritious one-dish meal using pasta, cheese, butter, cream and parsley that can be prepared in advance and reheated at seving time. I serve the dish with either a fruit salad (avocado and grapefruit is especially tasty) or a tossed salad of Romain lettuce with a light oil and vinegar dressing. Use this as a side dish with roasted meats as well. Noodles Alfredo 1 lb. pasta (linguine, fettucine, spaghetti) 2 cups cream 1 stick butter 3 cloves garlic, minced 1-2 cups grated Parmesan cheese 1 cup dried parsley salt and pepper to taste Cook pasta al dinte and drain well in a colander. In a large pan, melt butter, add garlic and saute lightly. Stir in Parmesan cheese, parsley and cream. Simmer two minutes. Stir in noodles, toss to coat well. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Turn into a casserole dish if you do not plan to serve immediately. Top with seasoned bread crumbs. Brown in a warm oven or cook at 300 degrees until heated thoroughly. Serves 4. Chicken Tetrazini Chicken Tetrazini is a delightful way to serve a crowd. When I make this, I usually prepare an extra for the freezer. Reserve some of the thickened stock or pour a can of chicken stock over the casserole (if you have frozen it) prior to cooking so it will not become dry. The pasta will tend to soak up the sauce. Serve with a tossed salad as a filling one-dish meal. 3-4 lbs. chicken 4-6 cups chicken stock 2 cups green onions, diced 1 lar jar pimento 1 green pepper, diced 1 lb. mushrooms, sliced ) V4 cup dried parsley | 1 lb. spaghetti noodles, cooked and drained salt and pepper 2 cups grated Cheddar cheese V* cup butter | V4 cup flour Boil chicken in lightly salted water until tender. Remove from bones. Reserve broth. Saute onions, peppers and mushrooms lightly in butter. Stir in flour. Add broth and whisk until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Add parsley and pimento. Add chicken, cut into bite size pieces. Toss mixutre with drained noodles. Turn into a large casserole dish. Top with grated cheese and seasoned bread crumbs (optional).

For Your Information Dear friends, As soon after a fu neral as the family's composure returns,, proper acknowledgment should be made to those whose gifts and personal service have meant so much. It is customary to send personal notes to the clergy and to the pall bearers ? to those who gave their service, who contributed food, accommodations, use of cars, etc. ? and to those who sent per sonal sympathy notes.
