We The Churches JOHN THE BBLOYKD DtSCdPLB TEXT: 1 John 1:9, If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Iff there is a power In this world that can strengthen character and purify human life. It is worth more than all the gold and silver of Un earth. Why make this conditional statement? The Gospel has that very power. John makes use of these words. "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our Bins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. "The trdth of this was demonstrated in his life. John was a fisherman. This was an honorable way to make a living for his own. It was an humble pro fession. As he was engaged in his work, Jesus called him and said, "I will make you to become fishers of men". What could Jesus make out of this rough uncouth man? At this time John's exterior was so pronoun ced, that Jesus called him "Son of Thunder". We shall see what a change came into his life. Tru'h works slowly, but does its work wt'l. It can not make progress within men unless he "permits and assists It. For about two years, John waB a personal companion of Jesus. During this time he was learning from the Master Teacher. We note the change that came into his life. From the worldly ambitious John who desired to sit on the right hand of the earthly king, he becomes the "disciple that Jesus loved." After the resurrection and ascen sion of Jesus, John with the other Apostles preached the glad tidings of redemption through the crucified and resurrected Redeemer. This was a very unpopular doctrine, yet it mattered not with the Apostles. It Is truth and should be proclaimed to the people. John was with Peter when the leaders of the Jews Im prisoned and threatened them for preaching the resurrection. When they were charged not to peak at all nor teach in tin- name of Jesus. These brave men answered, "we cau not but speak the tilings which we saw and heard". Again when John and the other Apostles had been cast into prison and beaten, they rejoiced that they were counted worthy to suf fer dishonor for the Name." Besides being a fearless and elo quent preacher, John became a Gos pel writer to whom we are indebted for five of the New Testament books. In the Gospel of John, he teaches the Deity of Jesus and declares that "these things are written that ye Pi the KITC 1EN CABINET Canned food will be needed next win ter as it hits never been needed before.

HOWS, Mngr. might believe that Jesus is the ChriBt the Son of God and that believing ye might have life through his name." His epistles are the love message of the New 'Testament. The Apo calypse shows the faith of the aged disciple in the triumph of tho Gospel, with Christ the conqueroring hero. His banishment to the Isle of Patmos by a cruel Roman Emperor only brought him nearer to God as is shown in the Book of Revelation. It is said that when he was too fee ble to walk to the services of the Church in the city of Ephesus, friends would carry him and his message was "Little children love one another." John long ago went to his reward. He was -cleansed from all unright eousness. The future will reveal many Who were brought to Christ through John's preaching and teaching. Many will be there who learned through John that "If we confess our sins, he Is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins und to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." Stephen J.
