। most of the apostles were still
I with them, and it was better to
hear the truth from their lips
। than to read it on a papyrus
roll.
But at last there arose a de
mand for such literature. Furth
ermore. the apostles and the
others who had known Jesus
and fellowshiped with him were
beginning to die. Soon there
would be no one left who could
sneak with authority as to
what had really happened and
What Jesus had really said.
Metthew, perhaps, made the
firsj important collection of the
teachings of Jesus, and this
v/riting became the basis of the
Gospel which bears his name.
The first complete Gospel ap
pears to have been the Gospel
ct Mark, who for some years
served as secretary to the apos-
Ve Peter. The congregations of
Rome are said to have request
ed Mark to write down the
events which they had heard
Peter relate and the teachings
of Jesus which he had set forth.
Mark’s Gospel was written for
Gentile readers, It contains very
little of the teachings of Jesus
but gives the simplest and most
succinct account of his activities.
Later Matthew and Luke used
the Gospel of Mark as an out
line in writing their Gosoe'.s
and incorporated into their
Gospels much that Mark had set
down. John write his Go-pel
t .ward the end of the century.
' Paul, over a period of about
I fifteen years, write epistles tr
■ the churches he had founded,
to others in which he had spe
cial interests, and to individuals,
setting forth with the full pow
guspel as it had been revealed
to him.
The first passage of Scripture
which we study today is known
as the Prologue of the Gospel
of Luke. It reveals a number of
interesting things. Many had
taken in hand to draw up a nar
rative concerning Christian
truth and teachings. Without
exception all such writers went
back to those who had been
■ eyewitnesses and ministers of
the w'ord.” Luke re-examined
all these writings, apparently
casting aside what he consider
ed inadequate or unworthy, a id,
before he incorporated them in
to his Gospel, tracing all facts
back to their source.
Luke was a scientific historian
before the days of scientific his
torians. He understood the va>ue
and technique of what is known
today as research.
Luke was in an excellent po
sition to ascertain the facis
about Jesus’ life and teaching:-.
He was a physician who ac
companied Paul on his travels.
While Paul was imprisoned in
Caesarea for a period of .wo
: years, Luke appears to have
used this opportunity to trace
down every fact he could lav
hold on concerning the subject
in which he had such passionate
interest. The death, resurrec
tion, and ascension of Jesus had
occured less than twenty-five
years before, and in Palestine
where living hundreds, and oer
haps thousands of people who
bad seen Jesus, heard him
soc»k. watched him perform
miiades, talked and fellowship
ed with him. When Luke -ays
that he "traced the course of
all things accurately from the
first,” he means among other
things that he had interviewed
many of these people and had
written down the interesting
facts they had told him.
The first three Gospels ate
known as the Synoptic Gospels,
meaning that they have a com
nion outlook on the facts wm -n
they treat. Although they dif
fer in many details and have
about them a variety which de
lights the reader, nevertheless
they are consistent in the'r
testimony concerning the things
that Jesus said and did. On the
hole they set forth the human
aspects of our Lord's life.
The second passage of Scrip
ture in today’s lesson tells us
that John wrote his gospel
“that ye may believe that Jesus
is the Christ, the Son of God;
and that believing ye may have
bit in his name.” John Marsha’-
ed his material and chose the
events which he treated for the
apparent purpose of proving
these points. Jesus is the divine
Son of God; believe on him
and you will share the eternal
lite which abides in his person
and which he alone can confer
upon men.
The third passage of Scrip’are
(John 21:25) tells us that only
a few of the things which Jesus
did and said were written down.
We have no biography of Jesus.
What we have in the four
Gospels are fee memoirs of .n- n
who either knew Jesus from
personal association with him
or knew of him from those who
hud been his close associates.
Matthew wrote for Jews;
Mark and Luke wrote for the
Romans and Greeks; John wrote
for the world. Os course the
writings of Matthew, Mark, and
Luke have performed a worid
v. ,de ministry, but they were
written with particular groups
in mind. The Gospel of John
arose in a day when men were
beginning to misconstrue th°
teachings of Jesus. Heresy was
abroad. John wrote to combat
these mistaken notions. His
object was io set forth Jesus as
fee Christ. Here, he said, is fee
Son of God; he has w’ithin his
nature a divine gift, namely,
eternal life; faith in him makes
one a recipient of this gift.
John was a great writer, a
faithful pastor, a profound the
ologian, and one who had the
gift of interpreting the eternal
truth of Christ in terms of tne
best thought prevailing in his
age.
The more we examine the
New Testament, the more we
are led to see that we could
' not get along without any ol
the twenty-seven books. But
with them we have all that the
soul of man needs. They are the
r basis of our Christian hope.
God's greatest blessing to man
kind is Jesus Christ, and th?
Ntw Testament gives us our
knowledge of him.

Warm Springs Is
Called The Best
FDR Memorial
“In the legacy of the Little
White House and the acres
atound it, Georgia has had the
good fortune to inherit some
thing of international interest.
The Little White House, itself,
will take its place in national
interest and affection with Mt.
Vernon and the Hermitage a
the home of a great President
ard the Warm Springs Founda
tion beside it will continue 10
give hope and help to the hanai
capped. Truly, President Roose
velt built his house in the woods
. and the world has beat a
path to his door.”
That’s how Georgia Progres:-,
official publication of the State
Agricultural and Industrial De
velopment Board, concludes its
story of Warm Springs and the
Little White House in its cur
rent issue. The article, which
traces the history of Warm
Springs before and after the late
F resident's first visit there in
l:-*24, is one of the most inter
esting and informative pieces
yet written on the subject.
It tells the stbry of Warm
Springs as a thriving resort 50
years prior to the President's
first visit; of developments after
he became interested in the lit
tle community, and of wfeat me
Franklin D. Roosevelt Warm
Springs Memorial Commission,
headed by Ivan Allen Sr., of At
lanta, has done and is doing in
developing the Little Whne
House.
During the years the Little
White House was closed for re
pairs following Mr. RooseveAs
death on April 12, 1945. thou
sands of visitors came daily and
diove by the gate slowly ar
slopped briefly to gaze at tne
President’s Georgia home. By
actual count, 2,000,000 people
drove by in 1946, an average
j ear. They came from every
slate in the Union and from 41
foieign countries, it was pointed
out. Now' that the house is open
to the public many believe th*
number of visitors will increase
and that eventually it will be
come one of the nation’s most
famous tourist attractions.
'Phousands.” said Progress,
"will journey yearly to the
Hyde Park home and the mu
seum there to do President
Roosevelt honor, more thou
sands will stand beneath Fus
portrait in Washington to re
flect and admire, but only those
who make the pilgrimage to
Warm Springs. . .who see the
Foundation in operation and the
Little White House in memory
. .can fully understand and ap
pieciate the man. President
Roosevelt built his own best
memorial in the lives and hearts
of the handicapped people to
whom he gave hope and cour
age by the example of his own
courageous fight. And this me
morial is everlasting."

Slate 4-H Dental
Project For 1948
Bryan and Terrell counties are
1948 state winners of the 4-H
Club Dental Project, Mrs. Martha
Harrison, assistant state 4-H
leader, announced this week.
Each county 4-H club council re
ceives a prize of SSO awarded by
Sears, Roebuck and Company for
outstanding work in this project.
Terrell County’s 300 Four-H
members made dental health one
of their main projects this year,
according to Mack H. Guest, Jr.,
assistant county agent, and Miss
Elizabeth Zellner, home demon
stration agent. With the aid of
local dentists, the public healtn
nurse and the visiting teacher,
they made a county-wide survey
of all boys and girls of school
age and found that an alarming
percentage needed dental atten
tion.
They are sponsors of the clinic
which is being established in
the public health office and they
are working toward having the
clinic in operation by next year.
More than two-thirds of the
4-H members in the county have
earned signed dental certificates
by visiting their dentists and
having their teeth fixed and all
of them made studies of the facts
about their teeth.
SUCCESSFUL BAKING
Baking failures result all too
often when hurried cooks make
rough estimates instead of level,
even measures, according to,
home economists. Too much flour
can make a cake heavy and
cracked, while too little flour
can cause it to fall.
The Governor also urged
young citizens of Georgia who
plan on attending college soon
Ito investigate the opportunities
i offered m the field of veterinary
