"The party that Jesus gives
never ends" Dr Buckner Fann-
ing said at the opening Cor-
nerstone Series lecture Tuesday
Feb 26 in Behrens Chapel
Auditorium.
"It gets better better and better.
So come to the party" said Fann-
ing who has been the pastor of
Trinity Baptist Church of San An-
tonio for 25 years.
In his first message to the HSU
students faculty and staff Fann-
ing suggested that Christians can
be more effective for ministry with
Drooer training. "God can use a
sharp instrument rather than a dull
one ..a trained one rather than an
untrained one... sincerity is not
enough. He wants to equip you
so he can better use you." The
theme of this year's Cornerstone
Series was "It's Party Time "
Fanning also pointed out that
Jesus "Never condemns anybody
whom society had already con-
demned He didn't go around
blaming everybody.
"Everyone else came into the
world to live except Jesus. He
came to die" he declared Fann-
ing added that the only reason
there was a birth at Bethlehem
was so there would be a death at
Calvary Jesus came he said to
destroy "That destroyer to the
party death."
The series of lectures which
was open to the public came to a
close following the Thursday mor-
ning Feb. 28 service. At that
time a dialogue session was held
beginning at 10:30 a.m In the
Religious Activities Conference
Room in Moody Center
