"Mathematics" Is
Timely Theme For
Sermon Sunday
The theme for the Morning
Message at the First Baptist
Church this Sunday has some
thing of thi ring of the school
bell in it It concerns niathe
inatics, tin mathematics Jesus
used in summing up life. The
mathematics .lesu- uses, said the
pastor. O. \\ Sumcrlin, i> n
exacting and a- rigorous a any
found in t: > scientific world,
and extremely exciting. It stand-
it contradict:oi to the way so
many peoplt add up life.
Many people, the pastor con
tinned, look for a church where
they can be at ea.-e in the in
diligence of a selfish life. And
even then, the most they seek
from such a visible connection
is that of "funeral membership "
They want t e flourish of re
ligion over their mortal remains,
even though they never got in
witn the church and pushed and
.struggled for the Eternal Val-
ues which called the church into
being. Jesus has a positive and
most encouraging word for those
who do differently. Here is the j
great value of the kind of a.ith
luetic which Jesus Use.-. A wel-
come awaits you at the First,
Baptist Church.
