"I Have
Chosen You"
There will be held at the 11:00
A. M. service at the First Christian
Sunday a dedication service of the
elders, deacons and deaconesses of
the church. A special litany has
been prepared for this occasion.
Preceeding the dedication, the min-
uter will bring the message of the
morning on "I Have Chosen tfou."
Thi; is the first of such a service
that has been held in the new
sanctuary There arc thirteen bre-
come in personal contact with the
Lord. Is this an experience in which
all believers may participate or a
special experience of one person for
a special purpose? Certainly if
there be a personal Lord he would
be concerned in all followers to
know Him However, one argues
these individuals experiences of
personal contacts were made in
order that they may be gathered
into a book called the Bible. Then
if one chooses to know the Lord let
them read these recorded happen-
ings. Thus we are commanded to
read the Bible that we may know in
whom we believe. Then, too, we arc
supposed to be people o;' reason. As
