managed to peel the PC posters off the wall behind as well In complained about being able to pin down the PCs on the concrete facing the province Nobody perfect but remember the wages of sin Drichamer ImmitnielLatheraaChurcb Nobodys perfect How often have you heard that aid Its usually said an attitude of resignation Oh well nobodys perfect ton lot of mistakes After all only human This an old idea for the ancient Roman philosopher Seneca said To err is human People admit of many kinds Do Ihey admit mistakes In their relationship to God Yes moat people are willing to admit thai they have not been perfect in their relationship to God At least theyre willing to admit to a few small sins Oh haven been the best person but I not the worst either And anyway God Is loving and forgiving isnt He The problem is that the attitude doesnt take Gods Law seriously The Ten Commandmenlsorc very strict and they were interpreted very strictly by Jesus in His Sermon on the Mount see MatlbewS Its not as If God doesnt care that people sin He has forbidden sin And we are all sinners with not Just a few small sins but quite a few pretty serious sins Is there no hope Under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit St Paul put the situation very precisely and concisely For the wage of sin is death but the gift of God Is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord Romans God loves sinners but He does not Just forgive them for no reason at all Sin must be punished Christ MS given God the only possible reason to forgive us our sins He suffered the punishment for our sins in our place Jesus Christ Who Is true God as well as true Han never sinned But He became Willi all the tins at all of us He suffered the punishment for them for uat when He suffered and died on the cross He satisfied Gods anger against our sins He established peace with God The forgiveness of sins was earned on the cross for you there ready to be believed in You will not care about It if you do not know how serious a Gods Law tells you Ihst it is serious But the Good News of Ihe forgiveness of sins for Christs sake that God means to bring you to faith in the forgiveness of sins For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God Is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord CLERGY COMMENT THE CHURCHES Baptists urge more control over gambling The Baptist Federation of Canada the United Church and the Salvation Army

congregations are already practising this form of communion although unofficially Martin Luther broke away from the Roman church due to many differences in belief Are these now being swept away or overlooked as Christians endeavor to understand each other belter A recent by the Toronto Stars religion writer shows stale of failh In the modem church Tom uses the Scriptures to maka the statement that the Apostle Paul was an agnostic Even more appalling he Stales that Jesus Christ himself was also agnostic The word means unknowing but the general definition and understanding today of the ward agnostic is one who believes In a supreme power as opposed Supreme Being and for want of a better name calls It God The two come nowhere near agreeing and a person that believes this way Christ is an agnostic can never while thinking this way be called a Christian The name Christian was given to disciples or followers or Christ at These followers were dedicated enough give their very lives All
