The Church is the greatest factor on
earth for the building of character and
good citizenship. It is a storehouse of
spiritual values. Without a strong Church,
neither democracy nor civilization can
survive. There are four sound reasons
why every person should attend services
regularly and support the Church. They
are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his
children’s sake. (3) For the sake of his
community and nation. (4) For the sake
of the Church itself, which needs his
moral and material support. Plan to go
to church regularly and read your Bible
daily.

Is this lighthouse built on sand? Seemingly
so! All you can see at its base is sand.
Actually this towering structure is built on
rock. Underneath these dunes of sand is a rocky
ledge, firm and enduring. The sand may be
carried away by sea or wind, but this lighthouse
will stand secure. There’s a rock; a firm founda
tion, underneath!
Some people look at the Church and see only
sand. They see the shifting sands—of custom —
and fashion—and passing personalities pile up
and wash away around the Church. “Why is it
still standing?” they ask—for they see only sand.
The Church would have fallen long ago were
it built bn anything so fickle as fashion, so casual
as- custom, so impermanent as mere people. The
Church is built on rock, firm and enduring. It
will stand secure for all ages, shedding light and
imparting strength to all who are guided by it.
It stands on the “Rock of Ages,” the divine per
sonality of Jesus Christ and His message of hope
for all mankind.
