C., THURSDAY, MARCH 22, 1951 The Easter Story It is the custom of THE CHRON ICLE at Christmas and Easter to jjnnt passages from the Bible. Today we print the marvelous story of the resurrection of our Ixird, as recorded in the New Testa scent. John 20:1-18 (According to King James Version) The first day of the week cometh Rlary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and sreth the stone taken away from the sepulchre. Then she runneth, and cometh to Eimon Peter, and to the other disci ple. whdm Jesus loved, and saith un to them. They have taken away the Lord out the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him. Peter therefore went forth, and 25, beginning at 10 a.m. Juniors, intermediates, young peo ple and adults will meet in the edu- cational building, with adult women generator and battery with low meeting in the main auditorium for j pressure atomizing burners, their worship period and going to the j Ane 3 to 5-ton tandem roller new building for their classes.

Christ's Resurrection and Ours" AN EASTER MESSAGE By Dr. Robert C.

The laws of evidence sus tained the truth that Jesus Christ rose from the dead. However, the question comes as to what this means to me personally. First, it means that one day I will rise from the dead. The Bible teaches that because Christ died and rose again, we know that in a future day, when Christ returns to this earth, all believers in Him will have their 'bodies raised from the dead, and will have bodies like Christ’s. But what does this mean to me in the present day? In the New Test ament epistles, the resurrection of the (body of Christ is referred to in 25 different passages. In every case the resurrection of the body of Christ is linked with present day living. Christ rose from the dead, we who are Christians are also to live in newness of life, that is in resuiTection power (Romans 6:4). We are to know what is “the exceed ing greatness of His power to us who believe, according to that working of the strength of His might which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead” (Eph. 1:19). When a man takes Christ and is saved, the Bible says that a miracle happens: a dead man is raised from the dead. Becoming a Christian is not merely giving up certain bad habits.
