FOUR LETTER WORDS
Good News, four-letter
words are not all bad. Why, the
words good and news are four
letter words.
What did you think of when
you read the title to this
article? The devil has his way
to such an extent that when
most people think of four
letter words they think nega
tively.
Did you ever stop to think
that the word “holy” is a four
letter word? Well, it is. Notice
these scriptures that use the
word holy, “The Lord is right
eous in all his ways, and holy
in all his works. Holy, holy,
holy, is the Lord.”
Another four-letter word is
“love.” Observe the use of this
word in these verses. “He that
loveth not knoweth not God;
for God is love. For God so
loved the world, that he gave
his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him
should not perish, but have
everlasting life.” Did you
notice the words, “gave” and
“life,” as well as the use of the
word love in those verses? My
friend, the h-o-l-y God’s 1-o-v-e
g-a-v-e Jesus that we may have
everlasting l-i-f-e.
Let us look at other four
letter words. What about the
words “heal” and “well?” Who
does not want to hear that
they will get well when they
are sick? Then there are the
words “calm” and “rest.” Are
you tired; doesn’t the thought
of a calm and peaceful rest
appeal to you?
Are there any of us who do
not like for people to be
“kind” and “nice” to us?
Don’t we all respect a “real,”
“just,” “pure” and “wise”
Christian? Then there is the
four-letter word “best.” Some
one has rightly said, “It is a sin
to do less than your best.”
The wicked have drawn out
the sword, and have bent their
bow, to cast down the poor
and needy, and to slay such as
be of upright conversation. (Ps.
37:16) Yes, the wicked think
nothing of spitting out vile and
ungodly four-letter words, and
our nation allows such words
to be fed to our children
through TV, radio, and printed
materials. Our youth should be

wise and hear God’s word,
“Let no man despise thy
youth; but be thou an example
of the believers, in word, in
conversation, in charity, in
spirit, in faith, in purity.” (1
Tim. 4:12)
Every person should medi
tate on this, “But the day of
the Lord will come as a thief in
the night; in the which the
heavens shall pass away with a
great noise, and the elements
shall melt with fervent heat,
the earth also and the works
that are therein shall be burned
up. Seeing then that all these
things shall be dissolved, what
manner of persons ought ye to
be in all holy conversation and
godliness, Looking for and
hasting unto the coming of the
day of God, wherein the
heavens being on fire shall be
dissolved, and the elements
shall melt with fervent heat 7 ”
(I Peter 3:10-12)
Are you “safe” from the
wrath of God? Have you neg
lected to “turn” and “pray” to
God for mercy depending on
Jesus to “save” you and give
you the “gift” of eternal
“life”? If you are not saved
then “look” to Jesus and
“live.” Now, let every Christian
be “true” to Jesus, “grow” in
grace, “walk” in God’s “will,”
and “work,” for the night is
coming.
“Work, for the night is
coming,
Work thru the morning
hours:
Work while the dew is
sparkling,
Work ’mid springing flow’rs;
Work when the day grows
brighter,
Work in the glowing sun;
Work, for the night is
coming,
When man’s work is done.”
VISION EXPOSED
MOSCOW A Soviet news
paper reported recently that a
Russian housewife who startled
the world seven years ago with
her claims of “finger vision”
has been exposed as a fraud.
Five scientists who tested
Rosa Kuleshova concluded that
she had been peeking through
holes in her blindfold.
