Roanoke
Well we have been talking some
j ately about the wheel, and the false
prophets, and false teachers. Now we
want to talk a little about how we may
lecome a spoke in the wheel, the
tpokes is what holds up the load that
is on the wheel, the load gets pretty
heavy sometimes and the spokes must
bn made out of good timber to stand
the load. Now the wheel that we are
talking about is a type of the church
on earth. Now Jesus said if we have
borne the image of the earthly, we
shall bear the image of the heavenly.
Now how are we going to start to be
come a spoke in the wheel. First we
must hear the gospel, before that we
can know just where we are at as a
lost sinner, and when we can see our
selves ad lost, and condemed to eter
nal death, that will bring about a sor
row for our sins, then we will begin to
want to know what we must do to be j
■saved from this condition and the ‘
Lord always has someone to tell us
how we may get relief from this state
that we find ourselves in. Then Jesus
through his servants will tell us that
we must repent of our sins and accept
Jesus Christ as our only Savior. Then
Jesus paid to such a one. Come ye out
from among the world, then how can
we come out from among the world
only by going to His church and tel
ling our experience of grace and then
the church will accept you as a candi
date for Baptism and in this way you
separate yourself from the world, then
you become a spoke in this wheel.
After you have heard the gospel and
repented of your sins and accepted
Jesus as your Saviour and been buried
with him in baptism then you are
raised to walk in newness of life, then
you are in shape to help carry the
load. Now Jesus willeth the death on
none, but rather that ail should come
to repentance and live. Now Jesus
told the people while here what to do
and he told them plainly what they
must do to he saved, so there is no
use for us to argue about what He said
Now he told those that did believe
in him. I go to prepare a place for you
and if I go and prepare a place for you
I will come again and receive you
unto myself that where I am there
you may he dlsq, and I want to be one
of them that lias borne the image of
the earthy, that I may also bear the
Image of the heavenly. Now let us
remember that our God is no inspect
or of person, but in every nation they
that fear Him and worketh righteous
ness is expected of Him, hut to them
that reject Him shall receive Dam
nation and I want to be ready, Don’t
you ? 1 just want to ask this question
why is it that we can’t all read and
understand God’s word alike. Does
the spirit of God teach one to believe
one way and another to believe an
other. The Lord said for us to be of j
one mind and of one accord and foi
us all to speak the same thing anu
that there he no division among us.,
Now it won’t do to charge God with
being the author of confusion for he
is not, but he is the author of peace
as in all churches of the saints, then
where is the trouble, it is in the peo
ple of course, then let us examine
ourselves and see where the trouble
is and let us get right and then we
can all agree. O may the spirit, of God
have its wify with us all is my hearts
desire.
Well we started up our Sunday
School last Sunday. Brother Fred Fi
ler came over and helped us to get
it started and he is to be with us again j
next Sunday evening at 2 o'clock, the
subject for our lesson is the 13 chapt
er of John. Everybody is invited to
come and be with us.
The sick is not much improved
yet. but hope that they will soon be
well so they can be with us in our
services. Han't forget our meeting at
Brother Henry Pucketts every Friday ,
night before the third Sunday in each j
month. We have been meeting regular |
now at this time for the last three
years and we always have a good
meeting, so everybody come and be
with us in these meetings. We only t
ask the blessings of God to be with
us all to lead us iti the way of truth
is our heat's desire. Wishing all well
1 will close for this time.
