His crown was one of lowly thorns, His symbol was a dove, His kingdom was both heaven and earth, His golden rule was — love. This fove rose and transcended All color, race and creed, Thoughts And encompassed all living things And soothed all souls in need.

Jim looks sheepish, slightly annoyed, and reluctantly mutters, ‘You’. He even giggles nervously — and Jim is not the giggling type.

To escape God's punishment for , sin, a fitting substitute is needed to take our place. “Christ died for our sin, according to the Scripture.”. Because Christ arose, we know His sacrificial death was sufficierit to exhaust the penalty and power of sin and provide Re- demption for all who will accept it. ae Ghrist be not raised ye are yet in your sin.” (1 Cor. 15.) Because Christ arose, we know that all men shall be raised from the grave even as He said, The hour is coming in which all that are in the graves... . shail come forth’ some “unto the resurrection of life” and some, “un- to the resurrection df damnation.” (John 5.) As Job, we can say, “I know that my Redeem- ertiveth , .. After the skin worms destroy my body, yet in my flesh shall 1 see God.” Re- deemed souls at death are “present with the Lord,’’ and though the body go to the grave, it shall be raised incorruptible and glorified as Christs! They who reject Christ, shall also stand again, body and soul, before the Judge- ment Throne to be cast into eternal torment. Because Christ died and arose, the glor- ious resurrection power that brought our Sa- viour from the dead, can now work within our beings! When we claim, in faith, the merit of His redemptive work on Calvary, we have! the forg of sin; are red d for eter- nity; have peace with God and are “new crea- tures in Christ.” We have thus ‘‘passed from death unto life.” We are thus “born again.” This is Salvation!

In recent years, practically all the things which determine how much money has to be paid out have been increasing. Here are some of them: 1 The Cost of Cars —The $2,000 car of yesterday has become the $3,000-$4.000 car‘ of today. And even a “low price” car may smash another vehicle costing much more. The cost of insurance must always be related to the cost of xepair or replacement. 2 The Styling of Cars — Tho modem car has many improvements over the car of yesterday —all costing money. Wrap-cround windshields ' improve visibility, but cost five times as much to replace when broken. Power steering improves ‘handling, but is expensive to repair. One-piece body units eli rattles but costs. In cost of parts ‘alone, the repair bill that must come out of insurance premiums is more then ‘double that of Yesterday. 3: The Cost of Repairs — Quite aside trom Parts, the average garage repair bill is far higher than it used to be, because the garage’s costs have - gone up also and the garage repairman gets a higher rate of pay than he used to ~~ as do mosi Canadians today. 4n Medical Cost: too, must charge higher rates today than. they used to—and pnce again this cost must come out of the car Other 1 costs are (Borne costs of "Lost Tima’ —: Canadians generally, are a con- siderably higher incomes than they used to.
