the tribune stouffville ont thursday october 19 1950 its la the blood by r j deachman i drifted into ye old english tea room for a spot of tea the tea is served on a verandah running along two sides of the house the verandah is a latticed affair the lattice can be thrown back on fine days to admit more air and brighter view i have been at that tea room off and oil for six sum mers the management changes every season but the tea is good so also are the date cookies there is a tennis court not far away and 1 can hear the crack of the racquets on the balls from the distance comes the faint gurgle of a stream it seems to be in a tremendous hurry only to throw itself twenty feet more or less over a gorge and then lose itself completely in the mighty st lawrence i was early that afternoon there was the only one other guest i saw his snappy car at the door i nodd ed to him as 1 passed then when i had ordered my tea i asked him how he was enjoying his trip immensely he answered its most restful the river here is like the sea only less restless the weather is perfect at metis this time of year always cool but not too cool i must come back again you are an american i said his reply came slowly yes by adoption he said i am a natura lized american citizen i was born in germany thats interesting i said though i was really sur prised there was no accent not a trace so far as i could tell i asked him when he left germany i left it he said two days before the war broke out i have been back twice since germany is a lovely country hitler has made it a hell germany has been destroyed by a madman his tone was bitter let me tell you something he said i knew a man in germany knew him well one day he was picked up by the police nothing has been heard of him since his children had repeat ed something he had said at home he was nabbed by the nazi police what had he said i asked probably about as much as in canada cr the united states a man might say of an opposing political leader you probably know what that means that settled me i left germany i will never go back to live can you believe it one man hitler destroyed a nation then i asked him a question these changes must have come about slowly they would not be noticed at first where comes the breaking point he paused for a moment my mother he said was english my father was ger man blood will tell i had a rebel streak in me i wanted to know if there had been much change in germany on his last visit not much he answered change will be slow east germany at least will be communist sometimes when i try to get a glimpse of the whole picture i wonder if europe can ever again take its place in the civilized world i finished my tea and moved over closer to him this war i said how long will it last its a guess he said your guess may be as good as mine another year at least possibly two no man can guess what may happen tremend ous changes are taking place con sider india and china silent for years these countries must now be taken into consideration i am not sure that an alliance between china and russia can last who on earth would have said few months ago that a war would have happ ened ibetwceh north and south korea a tiny area at best with a population of 10000000 but which may sometime in the future be regarded as a pivotal point in world history it may happen who knows he got up and moved over to his car i started back to my hotel i wish i couid meet that man in august 1952 what might we then say of the war in korea or the state of the world voice of prophecy bible questions and answers question how long does it take to read the bible through answer about sixty hours of average reading time q was there syone on this earth before adam a in genesis 25 it is stated that before adam was created there was not a man to till the ground and in 1 corinthians 1545 adam is called the first man q does the word of god still uphold fasting a and jesus said unto them can the children of the bride- chamber mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them but the days will come when the bride groom shall be taken from them and then shall thev fast matthew 915 read also matthew 617 is and joel 21218 q how can you believe a book like the bible that teaches such an absurdity that the earth is held up on the shoulders of a giant a the bible teaches no such idea in job 20 7 it is wriiten he hangeth the earth upon noth ing and that is an accurate scientific statement q isnt the bible after all the word of men since the apostles were men a it was given through men but it is the word of god for this cause also thank we god with out ceasing because when ye received the word of god which ye heard of us ye received it not as the word of men but as it is in truth the word of god which effectually worketh also in you that believe 1 thessalonians 2 13 q where can i find the bible reference to the secret rapture of the church a i thessalonians 4 1318 is sometimes referred to but this describes no secret even rather the opposite read verses 16 and 17 for the lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of god and the dead in christ shall rise first then we which are alive and remain shail be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the lord notice the shout the voice of the arch angel the txump of god this is the glorious second coming of christ the days of yore from the files of the stouffville tribune 34 years ago bowling in one of the closest as well as
