Volume 47. PARENTS, Are You Guilty? SHERIFF Millions of lost souls will stand in the judment day before the Great White Throne and, hearing their condemnation, will historically scream, “I accuse my parents”. There are thousands of parents who have given their children everything but God. They have pro vided them with nourishing food, warm clothing and liberal educat ions but with no saviour. They have showered them with gifts and protected them from harm but have not provided a family altar. They have read them Dick Tracy and superman but not the Bible. They have taken them to the mov ies, but not to Sunday School. They have cursed their children, but nev er prayed. Thus thousands of chil dren have lived to curse their par ents for bringing them into the world and raising them without Christ. One of America’s great moral problems today is juvenile delin quency. The majority of criminal offenses are being committeed by teen-agers. They have no revemc for God and thus no respect for authority. Public schools have in stilled their anti-Bible philosophy of “behaviorism” in their heads and they are expressing themselves to the utter consternation of educat ors, statesman, clergymen and police. Juvenile delinquency is but the outgrowth of adult deliquency. The son will be no better than his father, the daughter no better than her mother. A Godless, Bible-less drunken father will produce an equally worthless son. A smoking, beer-drinking, gadabout mother will produce a loose-living and pleasure loving daughter. God Almighty will hold you par ents accountable for sending your children to hell. Judge Healy of the Juvenile Court of Detroit, address ing a young People’s Rally on July 7, 1945, said: “Eighty percent of the youngsters arrainged in my court came from homes in which there has been no religious train ing”. Bible-less homes produce po tential criminals. One authority states that “One child out of every eight born in America is illegitiminate”. The breakdown of moral among our youth is the direct result of throw ing the Bible out of America.. Boys and girls who are already reaping the disastrous results of their sin ful orgies, are already crying. “I accuse my parents; they never told me about God, Christ, the Bible, sin and sex.” To be responsible for the demor alization of a youngster is a crrime of collossal proportions. If your child goes to hell, it will be, to a great extent, your fault: If you are on your way to the lake of fire, your child is following in your footsteps. Friend, you can lead your child ren to heaven or hel. The sole solution is for you to accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour. Then you must begin liv ing for your Lord in your home by immediately establishing a time each day when you gather your family together for prayer and the reading of the Bible. Then by God’s help endeavor to lead your children to the Saviour who in turn will keep them from the polutions of this world. “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Rom. 6: 23. Many of these thoughts were suggested by David D. Allen. W. R. CALLAWAY DIVISION OF BEEF GRADES A new division of grades of beef will go into effect June 1, accord ing to the U. S.
