nI am He that liveth and was dead; and,
behold, I am alive for evermore.
The resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ
from the dead is mentioned 108 times in
the new Testament. Surely God,the Holy
Spirit meant to impress us with this fact
for there is no useless repetition In the
Word of God, Indeed, the truth of Christie
bodily resurrection is the very corner
stone of the Christian Faith]
The early followers of Christ asserted,
with a zeal born of heart-felt convict-ior
that Jesus of Nazareth was a living Sav
ior, not a martyred teacher and philoso
pher. It was a truth they held so dear
that they were willing rather to die for,
than renounce. A man, they insisted, had
risen from the dead - one who was both .
redeemer and Eternal Sovereign of heaven
and earth] This stratling message so el
ectrified their ministry, that their
testimony virtually “turned the world up
side down. "
It is this same message proclaiming a
living Saviour that fills the hearts of
Christian believers, the world over, witi
hone and with enabling, power for Christ
ian living.

A very learned professor once said to
a little girl who believed in the Lord
Jesus, "i-Iy poor child, you don’t know
whom you believe in,” There have been
many christs, in which of them do you
believe?" "I know which one I believe in",
replied the child. "I believe in the
Christ who arose from the deadj"
"Jesus Christ - declared to be the
Son of God with power, according to
the spirit of holiness, by the res
urrection from the dead."

GI Insurance Trouble Traced To ^
Beneficiary -
Washington (AFPS) Nearly half of the hol
ders of GI insurance policies had errors
of some kind in beneficiary listings, a
recent Veterans Administration survey
• showed*
One-third of the errers discovered were
..caused by the failure of policyholders to
.make- necessary changes in their major be—
inoficiary designations*.
In too many cases, the VA said, the
serviceman or veteran fails to change his
beneficiary when he gets married pr re
married, or has children* This can result
in someone other than those he desires
getting tho insurance benefits in case of
his death*
The VA has no choice m tne manor jut:
t must pay the insurance proceeds to the
.'person v/hose name is recorded as major
beneficiary, regardless of who may bo the
heirs of the deceased*
Policyholders are advised by the VA to
’ make certain their recorded major bene
ficiary is correct. Changes can be made
by'writing to the VA insurance office to
which premiums are paid.
