The trite expression, “Ignor-
ance is bliss” has been used
for many a year in an effort to
escape facts and realities. But
is there really a blessing in not
knowing? Are we better off to
“tend to our own affairs” and
pass through life unaware of
facts and obligations that might
bother us? Many have this atti-
tude, but God’s word teaches to
the contrary.

Peter writes of those who
“willingly are ignorant” of
God’s power and udgmeut. (2
Peter 3:5) He admonishes, “Be
not ignorant..” (verse 8) for
though God is long suffering, we
must all stand belore His throne
and give account. (2 Cor. 5:10)
Friends, let us beware of pre-
sumptuous ignorance.1

Yet, many figure, if they do not
know what God (or ignores what
God) has commanded, they will
be -‘alright” in the judgment.
Some go to such passages as
I Timothy 1:13, where we find
the apostle Paul “obtaining
me rcy ” beeai i se he h indered the
church “ignorantly in unbe-
lief”. But 1st Timothy doc snot
equate ignorance with justifica-
tion!! Paul was ignorant yes,
but the man Saul of Tarsus was
also LOSTl What he is really
stating here is that he persecut-
ed the church in all good con-
science, but he was wrong. (Acts
26:9)
Nothing comes from ignorance
of God’s will/ No servitude is
produced toward the Heavenly
Father, consequently one is not
a servant. In Luke 12, Jesus
tells us that even though a man
may be ignorant he will receive
“stripes” or be punished. This
harmonizes with Paul’s teach-
ing in 2 Thess. 1:7-9, “...shall
come in flaming fire, taking
vengeance on them that know
not God and that obey not the
gospel of Our Jesus Christ.”
Many ask, “What of the person
in deepest Africa” or “one who
never has a chance to hear the
gospel.” - - I sincerely doubt
that there is any portion of the
world that the gospel is not be-
ing preached. Paul said it was
preached to “All creation” even
in his life time.(Col. 1:23)How-
ever, the word of God can not
lie. If God says that ignorance
will not justify, you may rest
assured “it shall be, even as it
is told”. (Acts 27:25J Due thing
is for certain, we will be judged
by a J 1ST and MERCIFUL God.
Let’s get right with Him, via
His word/
Twelve Attend Club Meeting
There is a great need here in
Delta County , a need for foster
homes for neglected and abused
children removed from their
homes because of circum-
stances which prevent them
from getting love, care, and
attention from their natural
parents.
Each year thousands of chil-
dren are injured by their nat-
ural parents or caretakers. At
the worst, children are crippled
or killed. More children suffer
in their minds and bodies from
abandonment, neglect, and de-
sertion. This is a cycle that is
frequently repeated when abus-
ed or neglected children grow
up and have children of their
own. You can do something
about this problem by opening
up your hearts and homes to
these children. As a foster
parent, you can break this cycle
by providing a healthy , secure
childhood environment and by-
loving and caring for these
children like you would your
own.
A foster home offers tempo-
rary placement for a child dur-
ing times of crisis. Perhaps the
child’s parents were abused
themselves or there isabreak-
down of family relationship.
Foster homes offer care until
the child is placed back with
the family, is adopted, or giv-
en institutional care.
As a foster parent, you
would receive $2.20 per day
for each child if you choose to
accept the boarding payment.
Clothes for the children and
medical bills are paid by the
State Department of Publ ic Wel-
fare and the Delta County Child
Welfare Board. If you have a
loving and adequate home, you
have the basic requirements for
having your home licensed by
a representative of the State
Welfare Department. We need
your help. Yew can do some-
thing about this problem.
Wfxild you like to help?
Contact your local State Depart-
ment of Public Welfare and
make a Foster Home Applicat-
ion. Write to Box 271, Cooper,
Texas, or call 395-2318 Mon-
day through Friday, 8:00 a.m.
to 5:00 p m.
