A Toast to Vickie the Elephant?

By Lee & Mark Jackson {Caldwell Journal}...You are probably thinking, “a toast to an elephant named Vickie at a golf course in Granite Falls?” Well that was my first thought when I was contacted by Bethany Hickman about attending this special event planned by a local book club. It took me a day or two to come to terms with this and eventually gained enough nerve to reply to Bethany only to ask her if she was pulling my leg. After Bethany informed me that there was indeed an elephant buried at the golf course I still had my doubts so I went about asking many Granite Falls residents if they have heard about the elephant buried on the 3rd fairway of the golf course. Sure enough, each and every person confirmed my doubts that there is an elephant buried at the golf course. On Wednesday, October 15, the Ladies “Rowdy Robust Readers” Book Cub got together to toast Vickie the Ele-phant at Granada Farms Golf Course in Granite Falls, North Carolina. Granite Falls Brewery Owner, Mario Mastro and Brewer, Brad Myers were also on hand to provide everyone in attendance with a special new beer named “The Vicki the Elephant Peanut Butter Ale” brewed just for this occasion. This beer has been such a success the Granite Falls Brewery has kept it on tap along with its special logo. Brad Myers treated the book club members and others in attendance to a very special toast that he wrote himself (you can find the toast on page 19). After a special toast and a snack of peanuts, the ladies enjoyed any evening at the Granite Falls Brewery. In attendance were Brenda Vlkojan, Bettina Boudrot, Nancy Brock, Pam Craig, Johnnie Jansen, Sandy Hancock, Susie Bowers, Marlu Taylor, Barb Bennett, Sheri Binning, Debra Batman, Susan Van Fleet, Barb Hersey and Bethany Hickman.

Madison Bumgarner Wins Game One Of The 2014 World Series

By Mark Jackson {Caldwell Journal}...Madison Bumgarner put together an amazing performance in game one of the 2014 World Series. His calm and cool approach throughout the game was not what you would expect from a 25 year old in game one of the World Series. Not only was his pitching stellar with the excep-tion of giving up a home run in the bottom to the 7th inning, he also contributed to the win with two great defensive plays fighting off two line drives. Madison pitched 7 innings giving up only 3 hits (one a homerun) and struck out 5 batters. Giants won 7-1. Joe Buck stated during the game that “He (Madison) is becoming one of the best post-season pitchers we have seen in a long time.”

Granite Falls Town Council Votes To Approve Rezoning Of Property

By Mark Jackson {Caldwell Journal}...At the regular town council meeting on Monday, October 20, 2014 the Granite Falls Town Council considered Rezoning Petition #2-2014 for approximately 2.7 acres of property owned by Dale and Alene Starnes located at 37 Pinewood Road. The request is to re-zone the property from R-15, Single Family Resi-dential to H-B, Highway Business. A motion was made to approve Rezoning Petition #2-2014 as submitted. The Granite Falls Town Council does hereby find and determine that the adoption of the ordinance rezoning the following described property is consistent with the adopted Granite Falls Horizons: Land Development Plan and that the adoption of the ordinance rezoning the following described property is reasonable and in the public interest due to its consistency with the Land Development Plan and, as a result, its further-ance of the goals and objectives of the Land Devel-opment Plan. This was passed by the town council 5-1 with council member Marc Church voting against the petition. This same property was up for rezoning last year but that request was denied by the town council. One year had to pass before another request for re-zoning could be submitted. The details of the rezon-ing petition really didn’t change from last year to this year. Cathy Hefner submitted these rezoning requests on behalf of her parent’s estate and at-tended this council meeting with Jobie Redmond, a potential buyer for the property interested in mak-ing an investment in Granite Falls. The adjacent residential property owners spoke about their con-cerns with the natural buffer. Potential property buyer Jobie Redmond took notice of the concerns about the natural buffer between the properties and offered his understanding. Council Member Marc Church brought up a con-cern about the overload of traffic on this section of Pinewood Road. Others agreed that a solution is long overdue. As far as future use for this property that has been rezoned, there is nothing definite at this time. The potential property buyer said that a study would be undertaken to determine the best use and it would be something “classy” if everything worked out.

Spartans Suffer 27-10 Loss To Undefeated Freedom

By Freelance Sports Writer Dan O’Neal...It was a tale of two halves, one half being dominated by a class 4A team while the other was controlled by a 3A squad. Amidst the shades of pink that were visible throughout Spartan Stadium in recognition of October being Breast Cancer Awareness month, the end result was the team controlling the last twenty-four minutes of the game emerged victorious. In the first twenty-four minutes, it was all South Caldwell as the Spartans offensive unit would ac-count for one-hundred-thirty-five yards of total offense while the defense held undefeated Freedom to a "whompin stompin" forty-six yards, thirty-six of those yards coming from Patriot's star tailback B.J. Emmons in the last thirteen seconds of the first half while limiting his carries and yardage beforehand and leaving the Freedom coaching staff in the booth flabbergasted. There was also the 10-7 halftime lead by South that was encouraging. Then again, might this run by Emmons have been a preview of what could transpire in the second half of this key conference matchup? While the Spartans offense made some quality plays in the first twenty-four, their only scores came in the first half; one was a fumble recovery in the end zone by offensive lineman Logan Wiksewski and the other being a twenty-three yard field goal by placekicker Will Benfield. What happens in the second half of a football game tends to be more telling. In the second half, there were turnovers, penalties, and special teams miscues that hampered the Spartans offensive arsenal. There was also the Patriots defense making adjustments and rising to the occasion limiting the Spartans to a total of fifty-seven yards offensively. There was also the change that Freedom made in their offense, enabling Division 1 recruit Emmons to rush for 125 yards and three touchdowns in the second half, quite the opposite to only the kickoff return for a touchdown by Niguel Moore directly after the Spartans touchdown in the second quarter. The end result of this tale of two halves was Freedom winning by the score of 27-10, halting the South Caldwell four game winning streak and outright first place in the Northwestern 4A/3A Conference. This now leaves South Caldwell focusing on the winning conference games to qualify for the state playoffs. "It was a game of field position. I (as a coach) have to clean up some things. The kids have done every-thing I have asked them to do. We played them close and we have to build off the positives. We have good guys and a good team. We also have to work on not playing behind the sticks (reducing the penal-ties) which hindered our drives offensively" commented South Caldwell head coach Butch Carter. In their pursuit of the state playoffs, South Caldwell will take to the road next Friday to face the St. Stephens Indians, who won over Hickory in their last outing. Kickoff is set for 7:30pm.

Dr. Herb Says….Take These Steps To Health

Energy

It is hard to function in life when a person does not have any energy. There are many things that you can do to help your energy level. During your waking hours stay active: Do some-thing. Work and exercise is good for you. And, at the time you are supposed to rest; rest. Stay active during the day and sleep at night. Do not stay up all hours of the night watching TV or anything. Your body needs rest and sleep to have energy for the day. Do not eat foods that deceive you; that give you energy at first then do not feed your body and actually drain your energy supply. Such foods are sugar, and refined carbohydrates. Do not take drugs to try and stimulate energy. Do not drink alcohol or caffeine drinks: they rob your energy. Smoking is bad to deplete your body of energy. Eating too much, and eating all the time, takes a lot of energy. Keep your mind on the Lord and trust in Him. Avoid stress. Worry, anxiety, stress, will zap your energy: when you could just turn it over to the Lord, He can han-dle it better than you can. Drink water and eat fresh and raw foods that God made. Do not eat man-made foods, which are robbed of their nutrients. Do not eat anything animal; it takes too much energy to digest it and process it through the body. Do not eat at night, you will rest.

Low Thyroid

The Thyroid regulates the function of all our cells. It is essential that the thyroid is normal in order to keep our energy up, and our body warm. There are many symptoms of dysfunc-tion when the thyroid is not up to par. The most common are fatigue, depression, cold hands and feet, slow doing everything, headaches, emotional, weak, and just feel cold when every-body else is warm. When waste is left in the body, it putrefies causing a bacterial problem. Bacteria can get in the thyroid and cause mal-function. Some people have been helped by eat-ing foods high in iodine, such as kelp or using iodized salt. It is better just to clean out and eat God’s food. Also you can drink water instead of man-made drinks. Eat foods high in minerals and trace minerals. Eat foods high in B-vitamins. Eat mostly raw foods; cooking kills B-vitamins. Get adequate rest and sleep. Be active; work for exercise. Be sure to eat foods that are good fiber so they will go through the body, and not clog it up. Meats, cheese, and any-thing animal does not have fiber. Digestion does not work properly at night. Be sure to go eliminate colon, three times a day and kidneys seven times.

High Blood Pressure

High blood pressure is referring to the pressure that blood exerts on your arteries and veins while the heart is beating and resting. The pressure while the heart beats is called systolic force, and the pressure during the hearts rest moment is called diastolic force. Normal blood pressure is represented by 120 systolic and 80 diastolic. The worst place to get an accurate reading is at the doctor’s office: Some people are up-tight and stressful about going to the doctor, so stress causes blood pressure to be higher. Some things that cause blood pressure not to be normal are: eating at night, eating too much too late, eating sugar and refined car-bohydrates, too much waste left in the body, not eating foods with proper nutrition, especially minerals and amino acids, smoking, taking in caffeine and/or alcohol, side-effects from some prescription drugs, not enough rest, water, oil or exercise and no break in eating. Eat a good breakfast of fruit and protein. Fruit and protein foods such as sunflower seeds, almonds and all nuts, beans avocadoes, bananas, cantaloupes are good sources of calcium, potassium, mag-nesium, minerals. Fruits and vegetables are good sources of vitamins and minerals to help strengthen veins and arteries.

Osteoporosis

Most every person has bone deterioration; some worse than others. We have all been brain-washed to take calcium, and/or drink milk. Milk is designed for an animal growing bones, but not sustaining bones. Once a person gets the bones growing, we need sunshine, exercise, and hormones to sustain healthy bones. When you start growing; start living. Do something; get exercise. Get outside and get some sunshine. Interact with people. In other words, LIVE! Do not just stay cooped up in a box called a house, and do nothing, and let yourself deteriorate. There are other things besides lack of living that cause you to deteriorate. Watching the world and all that the devil is doing in the world, can dry up your spirit, keep you depressed and will take a toll on your body. Watch God: He has a great future for everyone who wants it. He will lift your spirit and give you hope. Also, there are some physical things you can do that can cause you to deteriorate. Eating animal protein actually wears your digestive system down. Eating sugar destroys nutrients and can add to the deterioration of your body. Alcohol, caf-feine, drugs, smoking all take a toll on helping your body to go downhill, and take away your health. Eating too much physical food and not enough spiritual food will cause to deteriorate.

You Can Be Old and Healthy

If we carefully preserve the life force and keep the delicate mechanism of the body in order, the result is health. Without health, no one can distinctly understand or as completely fulfill his obligations to himself, to his fellow-beings, or to his creator. Therefore, the health should be as faithfully guarded as the character. Getting older does not mean we have to have poor health. Genesis 43:28 “And they answered, “Thy servant our father is in good health, he is yet alive.” Genesis 47:9 “And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrim-age are a hundred and thirty years.” Jacob had good health at one hundred and thirty years. Moses was still healthy at one hundred twenty years old. Deuteronomy 34:7 “And Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died; his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.” Caleb was healthy at age eighty five years old. Joshua 14: 10, 11 “And now, behold, the Lord hath kept me alive and now, lo, I am this day fourscore and five years old. As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me.” He was as healthy at age eighty-five as he was at forty.

Obey God Stay Healthy

Disease, sickness, death are from the devil. God wants us to be healthy. Acts 10:38 “God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power; who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil for God was with Him.” Believe in Je-sus and obey Him. If other people want to be sick, we do not have to follow that way. Disobe-dience or following the devil has diseases with it. Deuteronomy 28:27 – 28, 60 – 61 “Boils, scab, itch, whereof thou canst not be healed: Madness and blindness, and astonishment of heart. Diseases which thou wast afraid of; they shall cleave unto thee. Also every sickness and every plague until thou be destroyed.” Disease is not a punishment from God, but a re-ward from following an evil devil. Deuteronomy 7: 12 – 15 “If ye hearken to the Lord, thy God shall keep thee; He will love thee, bless thee. Thou shalt be blessed above all people. And the Lord will take away from thee all sickness and will put none of the evil diseases which thou knowest upon thee.” Obeying God is much better than having headaches, pain of all sorts and a miserable life of sickness. Without health, no one can enjoy life. And it is not worth following the devil and pleasures of sin!

Stay Healthy For God’s Glory Sickness is the body cleansing itself. When someone has the flu, they get diarrhea, throw-up, fever, perspire; this is the body’s way of eliminating toxins. We should never allow ourselves to let toxins build up so bad until the body has to go to drastic measures to cleanse itself. Fasting one day a week is good to let the body do some housecleaning. One of the biggest de-ceptions the devil has pulled off on mankind is thinking we have to eat all the time. Jesus fasted forty days. Jesus never set a bad example. The four thousand people that Jesus fed had been with Jesus for three days with nothing to eat. We cannot even get people to set in church only two hours without wanting to go home and eat. In Rev. 14:7 it says, “Fear God and give glory to Him.” How do you give God glory? 1 Cor. 10:31 “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.” God made us. The devil is trying to mess up God’s creation. The devil does not want God to receive glory, or for us to be healthy.

Lemon

The Lemon is a natural antiseptic. Lemon juice will destroy harmful bacteria in cuts, or other places in the body. Mix lemon juice with honey and destroy the bacteria that causes a sore throat. Lemon juice is good for acne and eczema. Lemon juice is good to kill the bacteria trying to come through the skin, by way of a boil. Lemon juice is good for blackheads, and clogged skin pores. Put lemon juice on wrinkles, and leave for several hours, and then wash it off, and apply coconut oil. You can rub the inside of the lemon peel over your teeth and gums to help remove stains, and prevent teeth and gum problems. Mix the juice of one large lemon in a glass of water, and put it on the hair and scalp to help with dandruff and give your hair a shine. Lemon juice is also good for relieving the itch of insect bites, and also good for poison oak or ivy. A lemon water fast, one day a week is good to lose excess weight. Lemon juice is good to get rid of stuff that causes breathing and sinus problems.

A Toast to Vickie the Elephant?

Now…What about Vicki Vicki the elephant had quite a life indeed. Her story began in Charlotte on Sunday, Septem-ber 11, 1955 when she escaped from the Airport Amusement Park, a circus on Wilkinson Boulevard which was not far the Douglas Municipal Airport. At this time Vicki was six years old…an Indian Elephant. Louis Reed, a former Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Cir-cus elephant trainer, was flown in, promising that he could bring her home with "Indian Jungle Calls" and "talking like a baby." His efforts finally brought about the end to her partying days. Vicki's unprecedented foray in the Queen City finally came to a close on Tuesday, September 20. Reed, with Partlow, Stickland and a posse of policemen and civilian volunteers were able to herd Vicki into a nearby large enclosed field, where she was allowed to run about freely until finally running out of steam. Partlow and Strickland rushed to the elephant's side to help calm her down. A short time later she was said to be munching down on sweet grass and slurping up giant gulps of water (too much partyin' obviously left the girl a bit dehydrated). Newspaper reports indicate she was led back to the amusement park calmly and without incident. It took nine days to capture her.

Charles Kurault which was a writer for The Charlotte News at the time wrote a colorful story about Vicki’s ad-venture (you can find the story beginning on page 17). Two years later, Vicki was sold to A.L. Lord, who oper-ated Granada Farms Zoo, an animal attraction in Granite Falls. It is said foot injuries sustained during her Char-lotte escape never healed; Vicki was found to have an in-curable infection and the peanut-eating teen was eutha-nized in 1958. But the story doesn't end there. Vicki’s 2 ton-plus body was buried at the zoo which was redeveloped as a golf course in 1973. Vicki is said to rest under the No. 3 fairway.

So, if you are ever golfing at Granada Farms, be sure give some special thought to Vicki as you near Fairway No. 3. Enjoy some peanuts or your own special toast!

Vicki Captured After Chase Lasting 11 Days By Charles Kuralt

The elephant who went out like a lion came in like a lamb.

And in the end, it was the amateurs who did it. Veteran elephant hunters Louie Reed (Ringling Bros. Circus) and Smoky Strickland (Airport Park) rested in a jeep on Wilmont Rd. yesterday, while a group of 20 high school players and volunteer firemen tussled Vicki to a standstill.

That's the way 11 days of kudzu-chomping, earth-stomping came to an end for Charlotte's AWOL elephant.

Vicki in shackles was a different animal than the sapling-snapper she was in the woods. She marched the last mile back in Airport Park with her head down, her trunk swinging sadly. She walked through the park gates, entered her old stall willingly and submitted to photographers' flashbulbs going off in her face.

She was dirty and tired, and swilled buckets of water as fast as handler Thomas Seeley could bring them to her.

Owner Jack Partlow said Vicki will spend a couple of days in seclusion and then she'll go on exhibition again. A veterinarian paid her a visit this morning, administered a few shots for protection against any malady she may have picked up in the woods, and mended her ear where an elephant hook did slight damage yesterday.

Vicki's captors pursued her doggedly all yesterday afternoon. They were amateurs who had been asked to stay out of the chase for fear of "frightening" Vicki.

They surrounded the elephant at 6:20 p.m. in a clearing halfway between Wilmont Rd. and the disposal plant on Yorkmont Rd. They circled around her with ropes, "like a spider catching a fly," said Francis "Pickle" Moore, one of the hunters.

Then Moore got a hook behind her ear and the terror of West Mecklenburg became a kitten.

"Soon as I got that hook in there," Moore said, "she calmed right down. I patted her on the snoot and that was that."

Smoky Strickland, who commanded the hunt more of the time since Vicki tore away from a handler and bolted to freedom Sept. 11, had the pleasure of leading Vicki home.

The elephant loped along at a comfortable walk, ropes around each ankle, with old-timer Strickland hanging on to one ear and taking into it calmly. It seemed all a matter of course to Vicki that she should be coming home again.

The caravan back to the park was joined by about 20 policemen and sheriff's deputies. The 20 young conquerors of Vicki led her out on Wilmont Rd., walked her past Jackson Homes on to Harlee Ave., the back road from the airport to Airport Park. Story continued on page 18...


Vicki Captured After Chase Lasting 11 Days Continued from page 17... By Charles Kuralt

It took two and one-half hours to bring Vicki home. She was led through the park gates at ex-actly 9 p.m.

Much of the credit for the successful elephant campaign was given three men who contributed their dogs, as well as themselves to the last hunt, Monroe Hines, Andrew Beatty and Ed McCullough.

"Whenever we'd lose her, the dogs would find her for us," hunter Earl Daniel said.

Others known to be in the amateur roping brigade were 20-year-old Bobby Hunter, son of Mecklenburg County Sheriff, J. Clyde Hunter; Jimmy Rowland, former Harding High football star; C.P. Brown, Roy Lambert and Richard Fisher. A crowd of about 30 closed in after these shock troops got Vicki under control.

"Almost as much fun as the night we beat Central," Harding's Rowland whooped.

Only casualty reported was a broken arm suffered by Woodlawn's Volunteer Fire Dept. Assis-tant Chief Tyler L. Garis when he fell into a hole trying to get out of Vicki's way before capture.

"And it could have been a very serious thing," Owner Partlow said. "I'm the happiest man in Mecklenburg County . . . these police officers who worked with us are the finest in any coun-try . . . and these boys (the captors) were wonderful, just wonderful . . . "

The day's last hunt began on the same unpromising note of the dozens preceding chases. But by mid-afternoon, Vicki was surrounded. After that, it was just a matter of time until the ele-phant wore down from running, submitting to capture.

Photographers and reporters who stalked through the woods for days hoping to be in on the kill were all disappointed.

They had all left the day before Vicki was finally captured.

But Charlotte photographers didn't have to go far to get to the scene. The local Press Photog-raphers Association was scheduled to hold a meeting at the Airport 77 Restaurant. Instead, members grabbed their cameras to join Vicki's last walk home.

Many people, out for an evening of fun on the amusement park rides, remained unaware that Vicki was being brought in the back way. Another crowd, held back by state highway patrol-men, gathered at the gate to watch.

A sign tacked to a telephone pole 50 feet from Vicki's stall pro-claimed, "Vicki is here!"

For the first time in 11 days, it was right.

A Toast to Vicki the Elephant By Brad Myers (Brewer at the Granite Falls Brewery)

“We are here today to raise a glass and to toast to the amazing life of Vicki the elephant. Reflecting on her experiences has made me study my own life and appreciate what I have. You see, Vicki had a wild

spirit. A spirit that refused to settle for what life had intended. A spirit yearning to be free. An unchangeable desire to break loose and explore. To break away from the herd and go out on her own, to seek danger and adventure, to see the world. Imagine the wonder and amazement she had on her own adventures, experiencing new sights and sounds and textures. New smells, new lights. To actually run free and live life as op-posed to just participating in it. A stalwart re-

fusal to accept her destiny and the courage to make her own. This was her legacy. This was her lesson to us.

And after she was finally captured, she found a new life here, adopted by those that would care for her til her dying day. So in the end, she was taken in by strangers and died surrounded by those that loved her. We should all be so lucky.

So, I guess you could say I’m jealous. That’s quite a life indeed.

I leave you with this; let Vicki’s spirit be your beacon when you feel lost.

Live your life free. Be wild. Unchained. Set out to see all of this world you can. Bring smiles and wonderment to those around you. Find a home. And leave behind only those that will miss you.

Vicki, I hope they buried you with your nose pointed up. This one’s for you...!”

Amid a steady stream of happy clients coming in to enjoy all of the services provided in it’s new 12,000-square-foot facility, the owners and staff of Club Canine Pet Care and Training Center held it’s official ribbon cutting ceremony Friday, Oct. 10. Club Canine offers services for dogs including lodging, doggie day camp, grooming and a variety of year-round dog training classes and seminars. The state-of-the-art facility opened in June at 435 South Main St., Granite Falls, after outgrowing two previous locations since it opened in 2006. Owner Traci Whiteside said they are already planning to add additional rooms in the new facility because of high demand. In addition to Whiteside, who owns the center with her husband, Kenny, Club Canine now has 11 em-ployees, making it one of the larger employers in Granite Falls. “Kenny and I are delighted to welcome dog owners looking for the best in professional pet care to our new state of the art facility,” stated Whiteside. “We strive to give our clients the peace of mind no other place can offer while exceeding their expectations. It is an honor to serve our community in this way." The new facility was designed with consideration of dogs’ needs for safety and comfort while offering a home-like feel. Features of the new facility include luxury lodging suites with patios, state-of-the-art cleaning and sanitation equipment, epoxy-finished, non-skid flooring, large day camp and training rooms with comfortable flooring, multiple large covered outdoor play areas and an expanded nutri-tion center.

Officials taking part in the ribbon cutting were Sabina Hardy, vice president of shareholder rela-tions for the Catawba Chamber of Commerce; Barry Hayes, mayor of Granite Falls; Edward Terry, Ex-ecutive Committee Member for the Caldwell Chamber of Commerce; Mark Seaman, general manager of the Hickory Crawdads and Catawba Chamber of Commerce member; and Greg Wilson, Granite Falls town planner. “As mayor I think it’s [Club Canine] a wonderful place,” said Hayes. “Traci, Kenny and Jackson are a great family, and the employees and facility all make it a home away from home for dogs. I can’t imag-ine anyone treating anyone’s pets better than they would receive there. Traci and Kenny have been suc-cessful in their other two locations, and I know they will be very successful in their new facility. All of their hard work is an acknowledgement of their dedication to dogs.” Club Canine Pet Care and Training Center is open 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday and 8 to 10 a.m. and 4 to 6 p.m. Sunday.

Think This One Over

Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law? (Galatians 4:21) It is a well known fact that the torah or first five books of the Bible contain a minimum of 613 laws of various sorts to be observed by those who desire a perfect relationship with God. Of course there are punishments as well as denial of blessings and favor for those who disobey or simply fail to comply with all of the law. Adulterers as well as disobedient children were to be stoned to death and debt owers who could not pay were sold into slavery. If a husband died with no children his brother was to take the living wife as his own and bear children through her to preserve his brother’s seed! Oh Yea, the law is tough and always leads to guilt, shame and condemnation. One single offense of the law was equal to violating all of it. (James 2:10) I think I can say with one hundred percent accuracy that all of humanity would be in peril if our righteousness had to come through our perfect obedience to the law. “for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain. (Galatians 2:21) Here’s a better solution to all our sin problem and our obedience to the dilemma; place all of your trust and effort in the only one who kept and fulfilled the law, Je-sus Christ. (Matthew 5:10) By doing so you will be approved for heaven by the mer-its of God’s son whom he will never refuse and also you will be more understanding, patient and loving to others who are struggling with their own law problems. Re-member, “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us.” (Galatians 3:13A) Yes I think it is safe to say, let’s think this one over before we make judgments on others. In Christ Grace.

We invite you to Pleasant Hill Baptist Church at 699 Pleasant Hill Road in Lenoir. Call 828-726-6564 for more information.

God Bless You, Pastor John Gray
