We do not and cannot understand God in this mortal construction. Should we accept the theories and doctrines that have been handed down to us from our ancestâ€" ors? Should we accept any statements because it is commonly accepted? Have we not a right to reason things out for ourselves and not take for granted anything because it is held to be so? I have a mind and therefore as far as I have knowledge and ability, reaâ€" son and fathom out problems that I know is best for my own life. Where is God and where does He reign? In the heavens we are told, Where is heaven and what sort of a place is it? Is there one â€" heaven or _ more, thought in one account we have â€" a version of several heavens. What is our future existence _ after we lay down our mortal possessions? ‘Where do we go to after this life and what do we 40? Do all inhabit one place or more? If I hold a view of any one . O more thoughts. I have no proof apart from my own view that I am correct, that is, to convince to another that I am right. How are we to know what is right and what is wrong? The question is not so much what others believe but what I believe, moreover, not what I have and do believe but what I ought to believe. A person will under certain conditions and enâ€" vironments believe that â€" certain things are reasonable, yet all reason able things are not correct, but place that same person under different enâ€" vironments and influences and in many instances their opinions will change. The more a person reads, travels, studies and mingles with humanity, so accordingly their habits, ideas and actions are formed. There are no two persons identical any more than there No one has at any time proven to us by any intellectual reasoning that there is a God, who He is and. what IHfe is. We have the Bible with the teachings and attributes of God, but this we have been led to believe from childbhood and the view that is genet ally accepted. How many gods al© there? According to the christian view or doctrine we understanda the Creator of the universe _ to be God. Some worship the sun, some the moon others animals, reptiles, insects and images of gods and goddesses repTeâ€" senting differeht spirits and beings. First of all do we believe in God or a god and why? Upon what is OUT belief based and our reason for it? Why should different nations ‘believe in different gods, which is right _ Or are they all right and how do wE know ? liveth or dieth unto himself. No one can live an exclusive life but what they become sordiq and an outcast. Life is blended and moulded according to our associations and liv ing, what we make of it and our conâ€" trol of it. A true well balanced life is mot only spent for itself but also for the welfare of others. A deep problem that affects _ out belief is why is there so much sufferâ€" ing, whereas many live in luxury, reâ€" finement and contentment, why awe there so many who hardly know where the next rations are coming from, many who are constantly sufâ€" fering through sickness, pain and anâ€" guish, when there are men of wealth living in ease and pleasure? ° Why all this inequality and when will we see and know that all _ are equal in the view of God? If God is responsible why does He allow these conditions to continue seeing He over rulest all things? We can trace . a cause and result of these things but in mose cases they are beyond the control of the average person until some day the people Tise up in one body and _ control things â€" for themâ€" selves and for the good of all and not ‘a few. p I will now attempt to give reasons for my belief in God and also what is a general ‘belief. First, I _ believe there is only one God, a supreme beâ€" ing of all, the creator of the world, the heaven, stars and firmament. Though I cannot nor ever will see God in this mortal coil, yet I can see His beauty, handiwork and perfecâ€" tion above the earth, on the earth and below the earth. God made nature and the country, but man made the city with the reâ€" sult instead of adding to beauty and appearance ‘he has marred it and made it hideous. I realize that in God are controlled the marvelous, ceaseless, wondrous, workings of nature, night following day, sun and moon, the earth, stars and planets all working harmoniousâ€" ly in accord with His will and direc tion. The forces are too stupendous for man to comprehend. There is no more majestic and bril liant sight than the millions\ of stars, as seen through the telescope. As spring, summer, autumn and winter, ceaselessly follow each other, so naâ€" ture in her activities never cease, but roll onward.

The wintry curtain is now lowering cn some to rise no more, some for a better and more hopeful future, the last reckoning of affairs, the gshadow which knoweth noâ€" lifting and the sleeping of life, Man by his care and prudence will have provided himself for this period of calmer _ moments. As the glory of the white mantle of the earth should suggest purity and beauty so a well ordered life will tpring peace and happiness. The dawn of the day is when we must work, the night cometh when no man can work. The autumn.of life brings us to a moveless brilliant stage although con ditions will be reversing _ graNually but in ‘a different aspect. The trees have been putting forth new life that will bear fruit next year, everything has enlarged its growth and given forth its products according to its care and treatment. Mankind has been provided for and rewarded for his labors. The vegetable kingdom is now brilâ€" liant with its golden shades of foliâ€" age and beauty, the beautiful sunsets that refresh and inspire the eye and mind, the evening calm, serene with a life well sgpent. The autumn of life should be hallowed and old _ age should bring its joy and glory. The beauty and innocence of a well born baby should impel reverence and admiration. When we look into its face and consider the purity and inâ€" nocence in its young life can we not reason that there is something typiâ€" cal of God. What does God represent to us but love, majesty, wisdom; also of wrath and of justice. If a child is trained in the way he should go, not where he wants to go or others want him to go, there is no fear that he will deâ€" part from it. We cannot understand a child. any more than we can understand ourâ€" selves, our mysterious formation and workings we have not yet discovered, the secret of life though we can folâ€" low the results. We cannot understand the forces controlling the elements, they are in the hands of a master ~mind, an unseen being a superior power.. We have a faith in the Creator according to our knowledge and study of his atâ€" tributes of our willingness to live aright and for an example to others. I must have faith in myself, in my fellow beings and to God. I cannot live or move without it and is the very essence of my existence, I have to trust others in order to do busiâ€" ness with them and we have that amount of faith in as far as we put ourselves out to receive it. * We could not walk, travel or â€" do anything without faith, we have to believe in the ultimate accomplishâ€" ment of our actions and desires else We would not aspire after anything, this would mean decay and eventuâ€" ally death.
