-'w--- -~ - THRBMDATI 3UnR 23rd, 1055 T1fE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILL,_ONTARIO_ New Canadian Views Against 5 'I.follows Teachir Veteran's Ave Bowmanville Dear Sir:1 Atter readin.4 the different opinions regarding the propos-1 .d Christian Reformed School here in Bowmanville, Il as al new Canadian, wouid like to ,.bring' before the people of ths StoWn, both young and aid, my humble opinion regarding this separate school. In the first place, let us as new Canadians remember what Canada bas done for us in the last war. Canada offered the cream of her long manhood, on the aitar of Freedorn to save 1falland from the oppressa r. .Also let us remember the help we rece-ived fromn Canada in -the flood of 1953. 1 arn sure that the help received from Canada in the last fiteen years Wll neyer be forgotten. In the second place let us Took at the immigration prob- lem from both sides. For us new Canadians who have ta start as it were frorn the bot- ,tom up, learning the new ian- guage and getting used to tLhe- new customs, it will flot bc easy at first. But let us also remember that aur language,i customs and manners may aiso seem strange and that they1 niay flot be seen in the righti light and understood by the old Canadians. I I, as a Hollander but also a new Canadiari, do xnot knowl iExpresses Separate School igs of Ch'rist 1"fluch about your different churches such as Lutheran, An- glican Roman Cathoiic, etc., but f would think that they came into Canada by immil gr sf rom other lands, such as the Luthéran irom Germany. As far as I know about dif- ferent schaals I know that we oniy have the Roman Cathoici Scbools. But in the last years the Christian Reformed and the Dutch Reforrned have alsa had separate schools. I know that every country bas its own laws, freedoms, and customs. We Canadians shouid be thankfui ta God for the free- dom which we enjoy ini Can- ada, a land af liberty, a land with an open Bible, and a land where we are ail free ta serve God according to how we please. We also have the freedorn of speech. and the freedam of re- ligion, which also gives us a, heavy responsibility, nat ouly here in Bowmanviile, but over ail of Canada. We, as parents, are tesponÉible ta God of howv we bring up and educate aur chidren. It does flot matter ta what church we belong. We ail know the delinquency of today's youth, if we listen ta the radio or if we read the newspaper. This delinquency is not only in Canada, but it is al over the worid. Take yourB- ble and read Amas chapter four and compare it with your daily newspaper and you will' agree with me that the world is lni a chaos and on the way ta destruction. But thank God that we are stili in the day ai Grace. We are al luners before a right- eous God, but the bioodaio Jeaus Christ cleanses us tram aIl unrlghteoumness. He bore aur sins and died on the Cross oi Calvary for us. I amrnont for à separate schoal! Donýt we have enough division and trouble ln aur churches? 1 Cor. 3:3-4 "For yeI are catlnal for whereas there is amang you envying, and strif e and divisions are ye flot car- nal? and walk as men?" (4) "For while one saith 1 amn oi Paul: and another I arn af Apallos; are ye flot camnai? Do we remember aur respon- sibiiity ta aur chlldren? Do we tell them about aur Lord Jesus Christ and the way ai Salva- tion? We know that there are thousanda today, men, women and cbildren, who do not know the way af Saivation. They do flot know the answer ta the question: "Wbere wili you spend eternity?" We ail have smnned and corne short oi the Glory ai God. "Tbi.% is a faitb- fui saying and wo thy ai al acceptation that Chrst Jesus came inta the worid ta save sinners af whorn I arn chief." 1 Tim. 1:15. Each ane of us have ta corne ta the sarne con- clusion "ai wbom I arn chief,"1 but by the grace af Gad it is possible. There will carne a tirne when we have ta leave everything behind. When we are yaung and in gaad health and wlth- out worries the world is beautiful and we never think ai ieaving. But we ail know that the day will carne that we have ta leave everything behind and account for the work that we did with the talents that God bas given us. In that day it wil flot matter who or what yau are, if yau are a preacher or a teacher, or if yau are just an ardinary worker ,it will not matter if we have 1, 5, or 10 talents. It will anly count on what we did with these talents. When I look around me ta- day and 1 see the sin and the unrighteausness, I ask the ques- tion "How long wili Gad have rnercy and leave the doar of Grace open for the sinner ta corne in ta Him and be saved ,and find rest for his so>ul?" May we ail pray that rnany rnay corne ta the Saviaur in this day ai Grace, and that we here in Bowmanviile and aIl around, bath aid and new Can- adians. may corne ta the ane who is Christ Jesus our Lord. John 17:21. Looking unta Jesus the author and finisher ai aur faith, etc. Heb. 12:2 and remern- ber what he aur Lord Jesus did for us. But what do wa do for him? It is impossible ta serve God and mammon, or; world.Z. Qegera - ----802-860 -- Bowxnanville Ontario1 MA-438- t# E q1 L 0 ELEtTRIC- 38 King St. E.
