I believe that Mr. and Mrs. Scism spoke out only because they are concerned for the children of this district. In Amos 5:15 the Lord says we are to “hate the evil, love the good, and establish justice in the gate.” Because we love our children we should want to protect our children from such filth. The corruption of our country thrives on filth such as this. Corrup- tion such as homsexuality, pornography, drugs, prostitution, etc. Peo- ple are too naive to realize how sins like the above are sweeping our country and our present area of living. Schools are the first place they start because children are their targets. : I Peter 5:8 says “Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about seeking whom he may devour.” Kruschev once said Russia will take America without firing one shot. At the rate we are decaying within ourselves we will surely fall. Wake up, America! Luke 16:13 says “No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will hold to the one and despise the ohter; ye cannot serve God and mammons.” I John 2:15, 16, “Love not the world neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.” To Mr. Scism and his wife, I say, congratulations for speaking out. In I John 3:13 it says, “Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.” And in John 7:7 you will see why the world hates those who stand for right. “Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.”-Jeremiah 17:7. “Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man and maketh flesh his arm and whose heart departeth from the Lord. If sex is to be taught, hire a man who loves the Lord and can teach it as God meant for it to be and not as trash. Mrs. Carolyn Kuykendall Kings Mountain Help Homeless Dear Editor: The new outbreak of violence in Lebanon has claimed the lives of thousands of victims while leaving countless more homeless, without access to even the most basic necessaties of life. The International Red Cross estimates that over 3000,000 are homeless; others put the figure closer to one half million. * In the rural areas, whole communities have fled, many of them hud- dling on open beaches, scavenging for food and water. Beirut itself is englufed in fear, death, and destruction. Empty streets and shuttered shops stand amid the unremitting shelling. Stunned and greiving families stretch from one end of this tiny country to the other. And, as always, it is the children who are the most vulnerable. Mov- ing from place to place looking for what might temporarily be safe shelter, sleeping on open staircases or in empty fieldslacking food, clean water or a change of clothes, the toll of young lives continues to mount. ‘ Save the Children, the international child assistance agency that has been working in Lebanon for over 25 years, is providing emergency services for these children and their families through their established health centers. A team of 45 trained professionals is working around the clock to alleviate the suffering. Volunteers have been mobilized to assist the displaced by locating témporary shelter and distributing medical supplies, clothing and blankets. Save the Children, in coopera- tion with the United Nations and other voluntary and bi-lateral agen- cies, is making both an immediate and long-term commitment to the relief and rehabilitation of the Lebanese people. In order to assist those struggling for survival, Save the Children is issuing an urgent appeal for funds. As a member of the organization’s 50th Anniversary Committee, I strongly urge you to take this oppor- tunity to extend a helping hand to the suffering children of Lebanon in their time of crisis. Any contribution, no matter how small, can make a difference. Please mail your check today to Save the Children, Lebanon Emergency Appeal, Dept. P., Westport, Connecticut 06880. Sincerely. Rev.
