BRING THE BOOKS
II Timothy 4:13

        Paul was a prisoner in Rome. Winter was coming on and he had left his cloak with Carpus at Troas. Therefore, when he wrote to Timothy to come, he made a request for him to bring the cloak, but ESPECIALLY his books and parchments.
                What a significant request. Paul says in effect:
                Let the winter come!
                Let me shiver!
                Let me freeze!
                I would like a cloak but if there is a shortage of baggage space, BRING THE BOOKS. My study must not be neglected!
        Christians who think for one reason or another they can neglect Bible study are mistaken. Nothing on this earth is more important than a thorough knowledge of the Sacred Scriptures.

        "Come let us reason together...."
                                             From the Northside bulletin

From the Pen of JOHN HOBBS....

We want to welcome Dennis, Ginger and Paden Reed who placed membership with us Sunday, June 16. they will be a great asset to the work here. They are a solid Christian Family who loves the truth.
In July, Dennis and his family will be going to Mexico to do mission work. The elders have made arrangements for us to help them and have fellowship in their work. If anyone would like to help, write "MEXICO" on your check and the elders will see that these funds are used in the work.
Let me again remind you to give me names and addresses of people to invite to our services.
On Sunday mornings in Bible School, we are studying the Gospel of John in the adult auditorium class. On Wednesday nights, we are studying the book of Job. We hope you will come join us in bible Study. The apostle Peter said, "Grow i Knowledge". (2 Peter 3:18)
I hope it is the desire of every member at Ninth and Main to see this church grow! We all have a part to play! Each and every one of us have someone we can invite. If we do not invite people, they will not come.
Jesus said, "Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." (Matthew 4:4) The bible is our guidebook to heaven only if we read it, study it, and obey it. True?
I hope to see your smiling faces in Bible School with your bible under your arm.

In Christian Love
John Hobbs
