Restoration Mind

What did you think of the Apollo 15 flight? There is surely a lot to learn from this wonderful universe that our Father has created! May the day not be too far removed when we shall be able to explore His bound revelation with the same eagerness and openness as we do His starlit creation. He most assuredly has blessed us with a curiosity that is not sated with answers, but rather one that finds in the answer the catalyst that demands an ever-increasing search for greater understanding. I would to God that we might find it possible to search His Word with a like eagerness and an insatiable desire to know, unfettered by the fear that truth will demand change. — James Ledbetter, 7622 Fleming Hills Dr., Huntsville, Alabama.

I get very angry and impatient when I think of how our Lord’s church has been prostituted while in the guise of a vestal virgin. Sometimes I feel like screaming “Is there no purity, no innocence, no ideals left on earth?” But so few would even hear me. Repentance is the kind of revolution this earth needs — total instantaneous body, soul, and spirit change NOW! Too many Christians have been sent into battle defenseless. I can see some spiritual weapons in your journal. May God bless your enemies with the wisdom to seek the Restoration. Maranatha.—FORCE (Freaks Organized for Restoring Christ Entirely) Jim Warner, 419 Probasco, Apt 11, Cincinnati, Ohio 45220.

I suppose one could say that I have a baptism to be baptized with and a cup of pain from which I have to drink. I did not ask my Lord that I could sit on His right side or the left side in His glory, but I did ask Him to immerse me in His Holy Spirit that I might become a vessel fit for His use and for His glory. He honored that request and now my brethren demand that I deny Him. — Phylene Pressley, Maricopa, Ca.

From observations I made while in the University Center and at various meetings in Nashville I am sure that the Holy Spirit is on the verge of the greatest break-through in modern times; Jim Olive, 4103 Gallatin Rd., Nashville 37216.

A thousand Cries shatter Stillness of night.

Are you my brother whom I can love,

Or are you Another whom I must fight?

You are different — my soul groans;

My Spirit moans as though to say, “I cannot accept!

You believe the Same another way.”

Prayer finds me in deep despair,

Seeking, searching Depth somewhere.

Then Truth in Love rings pure,

I then declare,

“My God is our God!

Great or small,

Our God is Father of us all.”

— Winston Hamby, 1312 W. Birch, Lovington, N. M. 88260
