ARE YOU A CHRISTIAN? To be orthodox in theory and heterodox in practice it is to mer it condemnation here and judg ment hereafter. We start life by faith, and we must continue it in evryday liv ing. Our Blessed Lord Jesus cen sured men who talked well and lived poorly. A Christian should be an unan swerable argument for the Bible. A rebuke to everyone living in hypocrisy, an invitation to all who are living in sin. A Christian is one who lives in right relations with God and re minds the world of Jesus because of His union with Him. Are you a Christian? Then, in your home you are true; in your business you are honest; in your work you are thorough; in your recreation you are consistent; in your life you are noble. To your church you are true. To God you are faithful. If you are a true Christian you will rejoice with the fortunate and sympathize with the suffer ing. You will be against everything that is wrong and in favor of all that is right. You will contribute strength to the weak and congratulate the strong. The world is in great need of sincere, honest, faithful, consistent Christians. Are you a Christian ? If so come and worship with us each Wednesday evening at 7 o’clock, in the Union Prayer services. The services alternate between the Methodist and Baptist church es. The leaders alternate between the Revs. Russell, Underwood, and Marshall. Come and bring your friends. If you are not a Christian you are invited to come and learn of Him. O. W. MARSHALL. Services will be held by Rev. O. W. Marshall at the Biptist Church on Sunday morning at 11:00 A. M. You are invited to come and worship with us, and bring your friends. O. W. Marshall. i Elders J. M.
