COULD HAVE A

VERY SERIOUS
'^connotation!
THE TAKING OFF OF A SHOE IN BIBLICAL TKAES
WAS THE SIGN A WAN USEP TO SHOW THAT HE WAS
NOT WILLING TO WAKE A PEAP BROTHERS WIPOW
HIS WIFE—THIS WAS A LEVIRATE PUTV WHICH EN-
ABLEP THE PEAP MAN'S NAME TO BE KEPT ALIVE IN
ISRAEL, FOR THE FIRST SON OF THIS UNION WOULP
BE COUNTEP AS THE PEAP MAN'S SON ANP WOULP RE
CEIVE HIS INHERITANCE. BOAZ, A NEAR-KINSMAN OF
THE WIDOW RUTH (RUTH A< 1-14) WISHED TO MARRY
HER BUT THERE WAS A NEARER KINSMAN TO WHOM
THE PRIVILEGE BELONGED. HOWEVER,THIS MAN WAS
UNWILLING ANP,IN THE PRESENCE OFTEN ELPERS AS
WITNESSES, HE TOOK OFF HIS SHOE AND GAVE IT TO
BOAZ, SHOWING HE DIDN'T WISH TO "STAND IN THE
SHOES OF THE PEAP MAN",THUS BOAZ WAS FREE
TO MARRY RUTH AS NEXT OF KIN,WHICH RESOLVED
THE MATTER HAPPILY HOWEVER....

...IT PIDNT always work out AS EASILY AS THAT.' THE LAW, AS
STATED IN DEliT.2S-5-IO, HELP THAT A BROTHER OR NEAREST OF
KIN WAS OUTY-eoUNP TO TAKE HIS BROTHER'S WIDOW TO WIFE IF
THE BROTHER DIED CHILDLESS (IF THE WIPOW HAD CHILDREN,THEY
HAD TO CARE FOR HER IN HER OLD AGE). NOW, IF A MAN REFUSE TO
TAKE HIS BROTHER'S CHILDLESS WIDOW AS A WIFE, THEN, BEFORE
THE ASSEMBLAGE OF THE TRIBE SHE WOULD "LOOSE HIS SHOE FROM
OFF HIS FOOT, ANP SPIT IN HIS FACE'', BECAUSE THE CULPRIT WOULDN'T
DO HIS DOTY TO HIS C?EAP BROTHER BY GIVING HIM A LIVING SON !
HIS NAME WOULP THEN BE KNOWN THROUGHOUT ISRAEL AS‘THE HOUSE
OF HIM THAT HATH HIS SHOE LOOSED". SOTO REFUSE THIS DUTY WAS
A MARK OF SHAME TO THESE ANCIENT PEOPLE—BEFORE A MAN
DIP THAT, HE'D BE BETTER TO- IN THE JARGON OF TODAY'S YOUNG
PEOPLE—"COOL IT WITH THAT SHOE, AAAN!"

Stephen Ullom, missionary of
The Wesleyan Church to Sierra
l.eone. West Africa, will speak at
700 p.m., Tuesday at the East
Gold Wesleyan Church, 610
East Cold Street, Kings Moun
tain.
A graduate of Bartlesville
Wesleyan College, Bartlesville,
Oklahoma and Bethany
Nazarene College, Bethany,
Oklahoma. Ullom received his
Bachelor of Science degree in
biology in 1973.
In October, 1978, the Ullom
family went to Sierra Leon for a
term of missionary service. Here
Steve made a valuable and
much-appreciated contribution
to the growing evangelistic,
medical, Bible College and day
school work by suing his abilities
as a construction and
mechanical engineer. Experience
gained in construction work and
in assisting in local church ac
tivities in the homeland proved
to be an important asset to his ef
fectiveness as a missionary.
Ullom will tell about his work
in this interesting country of
West Africa and of the people
and growth of the church.
Curios will be on display.
The Wesleyan Church serves
32 countries, including Canada,
Great Britain and the United
States. While the major em
phasis in the overseas outreach
of the church is placed on gospel
evangelism, an extensive medical
and educational program has
been carried on by the
denomination in many areas of
this worldwide gospel enterprise.
Bible Colleges and training
schools are given major em-
