Rooms were offered for certain sum of money When he arrived to book room at what he thought the charge would be he found the attendant was asking for lot more The price on the sign was only for commercial peo pie The other cheap rooms are all taken By DOROTHY KILBURN At the time Teddy Roosevelt was arriving in American from one of his famed African hunting trips missionary who had won many people to the Lord was also returning on the same boat The wharf was throng ed with hundreds of people waiting to greet Teddy while the bands blared the crowds cheered and the governor and mayor offered welcome greetings Ther was no one there to greet the miS sionary Arriving in New York another jubilant recep tion awaited Teddy but not one person was there to welcome the missionary When he got off the train at The man had believed the advertisement It proved to be misleading He was really upset Something worse than this can happen We can refuse to believe something which is true We can miss out on hap piness right now and eventually suffer more than petty in convenience ETIIRNAI TITLTII In the Bible we find absolute eternal truth concerning God man sin Gods method of forgiveness plus information about everlasting punishment and everlasting life Whether one believes these truths will not affect the truths man may say dont believe Ive sinned and need Gods forgiveness dont believe God punished His Son Jesus for me In fact dont Points to ponder Homecoming moment of meeting God his home town his eyes sear ched the platform for the familiar face of friend There was none The only person who greeted im was the old baggage master who called casually Hi there as though he had only been gone for the day The missionary felt blue but suddenly the weight lifted as the truth dawned upon him He found himelf saying aloud Wait minute am not home yet His homecoming would be the moment he slipped the bands of his body and entered into the presence of his Lord Until then he was not at home in the world The true follower of Jesus FAITH MISSIONARY 229 CrawIOrd Street Barrie 7373062 Pastor Rev Wayne Domm 7268750 945 am Sunday School 1100 am Morning Worship 700 pm Evening
