In wishing our many personal and business friends a Happy and Pros perous New Year, w c would like to thank each and every one of them for their cordial support, both moral and material, in helping us to give the people of Barnwell and Barnwell County a weekly newspaper in keep ing with the .resources and progres siveness of this section. We realize that without their help, our efforts would count for naught and we want them to realize in fullest measure that this newspaper is not, in a sense, owned by an individual but belongs to the . people of, the county as a whole. The editor is merely their agent, to whom they have entrusted the duty of chronicling the weekly events of this section—holding up them, as ft were, a mirror in which they may see reflected their dailfr happenings. It is a changing pana roma that is reflected there—joy and happiness, peace and prosperity, sor row and bereavement, privation and want, each has its place in the pic ture. There have.been many changes in the past twelve months. Many have passed on to their eternal reward and their earthly burdens have fallen to •ther shoulders. shoulders. “To you from falling hands we throw The torch. Be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die W® shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders Fields.” Friends whom we have loved and trusted in the changing years are but a memory, but other friends have come to take their places. A Happy New Year to these ney friends. There have been business changes, too. Some have sought their for tunes in other States and to these The People-Sentinel sends New Year Greetings. New faces have come amongst us and we also wish them A Happy New Year. “The Moving Finger having writ, moves.on. piety nor all your wit one single line of it.” That we cannot do, but we have come to the tuminoof a new leaf upon which will be recorded the hap penings of 1926. Let us all so live each day that we will not want to "blot out one single line of it.” Let us indeed resolve to make of 1926 “A Happy and Prosperous New Ye^r.” writes, and.

The lessons for this quarter are taken from the Book of John, giving us an opportunity as teachers to present this great message from God. In teaching the lessons the teacher must get John's central purpose and hend every lesson to It. Happily the writer has plainly declared it In chapter 20:30, 31. It Is twofold. 1. To prove that Jesus Is the Christ, the Son of God. 2. To show that eternal life Is to be obtained through faith In Him. With this twofold object before him, John'proceeds lawyer-like, to lay down bla propositions and then to Intro duce his witnesses, one by one. to establish them. The section for out lesson is the prologue to the Gospel According to John. I. The Pre-existent Word (vy. 1-4). The Eternal Son Is called the Word of God because »He Is the expression of Gnd to mao. He Is the one who otters to men the Father’s will “the only begotten Son which Is In the bqsora of. the Father, He hath .declared Him” (v. 18). Observe: 1. The Son Is a Person Separate From the Father. - There Is at the same time an Insep arable union existing between them. 2. The Son Is Eternal. He was with God in the beginning. He did not begin to exist when the heavens and the earth were created, neither did He become the Son at His baptism, for He was before all things (Col. 1:17). 3. The Son Is Divine. The Word was God. He Is a being equal with God and one In essence with Him. _ 4. The Word of God Is the Omnipo tent Creator. By Him were all things made, the world and all things therein. The One who died to redeem us, made us. ft. The Word of Cod Is the Source of All Life. He la the eternal fountain from which all life has been derived. G. The Word of God la the Light of Meu. Man’s power to reason has come from Him. The conscience, and even the Illumination of the Holy Spirit, have their source In Him. II. Tha World’s Attitudo Toward the Word of God (w. 5-13). 1. Men are Insensible to the Preo- ence of the True Light (vv. 5-10). So dense Is the ignorance of mankind that the presence of the very I^ord of Glory Is unrecognized. Christ not only made the world but was in the world directing and governing the whole creation before the incarnation. He la the preserver of ail its forces and Interests. Being thus unrecog nised, God in His grace sent John the Baptist as a witness that all men might believe (vv. 6, 7). God was not willing that men should grope in darkness, sc He sent a man with a true testimony to point oat that light to them. 2. The Desperate Wickedness of Man's Heart (v. 11). The Word was rejected by the cho sen nation. They would not receive the one whom God had anointed to be their King. • 3. Some Received Christ and Thus Became the Sons of God (W..12, 13). While the nation rejected Him, some individuals embraced Him and -were crowned heirs of immortai glory. In this section we are shown how men become children of God. It is not by blood relation with the Covenant peo ple “of blood”; (grace . is not in herited) ; not by the efforts of theif hearts, “the' will of man; but of God.” The new birth is God’s work; man cannot change i himself, oeither can one man change the other. UL Tha Eternal Word Becaffid IfC carnate, “Mad* Flesh” (vv. 14-18). In these verses we are taught the Eternal Word became the Ihcarnate Son. The eternal Son of God be- l came man, born of a woman. He passed through childhood and youth Into manhood. Har^ was tested; He suffered and died in order that He might become Identifled with the race and lift It |o Christ, and thus restore the broken fellowship. This incarnate Son tabernacled among ua.
