BOB JONES BOB JONES GREENVILLE, The average sinner thinks that a person who becomes a Christian has to give up the pleasant things of life in favor of a life of monotony and misery. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Christian life is a way of happiness. True faith in Christ implants in the human heart an unspeakable joy. Jesus Christ came in order that men might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly (John 10:10). A life without joy is not abundant; it is barren and empty. The Apostle Peter says of the Lord, Whom . . . believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory (I Peter 1:8). The heart of the child of God has good reason to rejoice. The Christian rejoices because of something Christ has given him and because of something Christ has taken away. The Christian has been given salvation and the assurance of Gods presence both now and hereafter; he has had taken from him the sense of guilt and Released by the Gospel University SOUTH CAROLINA 29614 the weight of sin. He has been freed from the domination of old habits and impulses and has been led out of darkness into light. Surely this is enough to cause springs of joy to well up in the heart. The Christian's joy is develexperioped by his ence of Gods mercy. Trusting his Lord for comfort in the time of sorrow, the Christian finds that comfort supplied. Leaning upon the Lord for strength in a moment of weakness, he finds himself upheld. Turning to the Lord in the hour of need, he finds that need met. No wonder the Christian day-by-d- ay is able to rejoice! "These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full (John 15:11). In other words, as the Lord speaks to us through His Word, our joy will increase more and more. Certainly it should not be hard for the surrendered child of God to "rejoice in the Lord alway (Philippians 4:4).i Fellowship Association controls. j Senator Moss noted that technologies also developed by NA-Scould be applied to this demonstration.
