We have to choose— just as Ad- am and Eve did in the Garden of Eden—to obey God or reb- el against Him. We make that choice initially when we com- mit our lives to Christ, but we also make that choice day by day, moment by moment. A Christian is a person whose life has been changed. That transformation is the work of the Holy Spirit. A Christian is a person who has accepted a challenge. The challenge is Jesus' call to deny self—our own selfish ambitions,our own selfish sinful pleasures— and take up our cross. If any- one would come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. Mat- thew 16:24— by Pastor Billy Graham.

"And God spake all these words, saying, I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Thou shalt not make unto thee any grav- en image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, vis- iting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; and shew- ing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guilt- less that taketh his name in vain. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: but the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man- servant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six days the LORD made heav- en and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long up- on the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. Thou shalt not cov- et thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's" (Exodus 20 :1-17).

Yet even then their testimony did not agree. Then the high priest stood up before them and asked Jesus, "Are you not going to answer? What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you? " But Je- sus remained silent and gave no answer. Again the high priest asked him, "Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Bless- ed One? " "I am," said Jesus. "And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven." The high priest tore his clothes. "Why do we need any more witnesses? " he asked. "You have heard the blasphemy. What do you think? " They all condemned him as worthy of death. (Mark 14:57-64). Joe Henson, Pastor Matt Haycraft, Reporter ST. JOHN'S LUTHER AN CHURCH 6483 W. 580 N.

God has always intended that all His people worship Him—men and women, old and young, longtime believ- ers and newcomers. His commands (Deuter- onomy 32:12).
