W CHARLIE BROWN Definitely Weekly Devotional Bv Eugene Maddox. Pastor The Rock Baptist Church Jenkinsburg, Georgia SUMMER SUNDAYS BELONG TO HIM TOO! It’s that time of year again. We are having some beauti ful weather and we should thank God for it, but some of our church members will do just the opposite. They will take those beautiful week ends for their own pleasure, neglecting their church and their Lord (Jesus Christ). No man can break away from the church and its worship of God without feeling the effect of it in his own soul. If you see a man begin to serve the god of pleasure or money or fame, you will observe that very soon there begins a moral as well as spiritual decline. When a man begins to absent himself from church worship something bad is taking place in his heart. Church attendance is op tional as far as choice is concerned, but it is obliga tory as far as moral and spiritual welfare is concern ed. When Adam and Eve sinned they failed God at the appointed hour of worship, God was there but Adam and Eve were elsewhere. We, the sons and daughters of these first parents, are not all so different. If there is sin in our souls, it robs us of any desire to meet God. The first step to take to attain a happy whole life are Church Steps. Great deci sions for great living have been more often reached in God’s appointed place of worship. When we neglect and despise and absent ourselves from His appointed place of worship, we do so at our own peril. Whipping will certainly follow. We should know that payday will come someday. “Forsake not the assemb ling of yourselves together”, for worship. (Hebrews 10:25) SAVE SUMMER SUN DAYS FOR THE SAVIOUR PERSONAL B. I.
