here late Wednesday.

examination and blood tests at a

NOME GOSPEL HOME
TAMPA, Fla. — A young
couple who were accused of for
gery here have been sentenced to
ten years — ten years in church.
Judge Thomas Caro put Mr. and
Mrs. Harold J. Bevel on probation
with the stipulation that they at
tend church every Sunday. When
asked why he imposed this un
usual sentence, Judge Caro re
plied: “I think the church can do
more good for them than the
jail.”
How true this is. For everything
that the true Church of the Lord
has to offer 'is good. She has the
commission to preach the Gospel
of the grace of God, a message of
good hope which, when received
into one’s heart, changes their
whole life for time and for eter
nity. When a needy soul lets the
Saviour come into their heart,
then a new and wonderful life
has begun. . . . Our risen Lord has |
spoken these words of promise:
“I am the Resurrection and the
Life; he that believeth in Me,
though he were dead, yet shall
he live.” (John 11:25)
