It is easy to tell in which class the creeds of men fall—
So also shall
all the products of creeds— denominations and all false re-
link n—perish at the last gr< at day. Gcd will allow only his
w .■ : and the product of it—the church— to stand the test
of judgement.
When one speaks of religion, he almost invariably will ask:
“To wtnt church do you b<*long; what is vour creed?’’ Since
people are Name and Creed conscious it means only one thing
—that they have never investigated God s Holy Book on these
things. God tells us that the one name is that of Christ (A ts
4 12> and if the church has a creed ? is ‘Jesus Christ and him
crucified.” Acts 2:36.

Yes, disaster knows no season. But insurance — dependable, q lality in ur-

To be sure that your insurance against disaster is complete it
buy it only from an experienced, qualified Local Agent. Only

The Bible is our one and only rule and standard of fa.th
and practice. In it we find our every hope and Gods every
command. As a religious body the church has no man-made
creed or manual of faith. There is no place in true New
Testament worship for any practice or doctrine that we can-
not fird included in God’s Holy Word. Isa. 40:8 tells us
♦hat the word of God shall stand forever; xvhile on the other
hand I’eter tells that the earth and the works thereof shall
be burned. 2 Pet. 3:10. <
