being done at Canaan.Church.

I am very glad that I took time
out to go to Church this morning

because it was something # aig oe

them

until all- dimes
tions were finish
down stairs, While -he wilt sway
the up stairs boss took over, The
first speaker was a good old
deacon who ~didn~t know any better then fee up nd try to say
what he @as told fo say. He. was
speaking for the Pastor~s aid when
he ~said I have been~a deacon for
-over 50 years and I haven~t seen
a better pastor than Rev. Robbs.

Well, it is wonderful that God!

has blessed him with tong life,

but very shameful to admit. that)

he has seen so littip during ~his
long life.~

After he finished then the boss,
a man who gained power through | |
~the aid test~ at Canaan, spoke]
for about ten minuites. He pick

the occasion to say~ many things | |

and to ask a few questions. ~If
you oat ~to let others lead

certain people: iwere there. I say)
he was speaking: With authority
which bore. out my contention
all along that -law-and: order does
not..exist at Canaan: Church any
more. But whatever the big three
says is law. Th sceripture. is. being replaced. with. -such ~songs,
and off-the-wall: slings as those
used by the underworld.

This bright young man also sakea
this. question ~What kind of deacon would I be if I knew there
was something wrong at _ this
church~ if I didn~t have the cour
badly tieeded, which goes~to a |
what job of brain washing. is.

In what law do.do. ee proof
for that statement. Rev.~

aiid 99% of them conn: can

~Nobody. likes a stool pigeon.

racrinray hers aneeting, any:

more. Well. ae said ~whosoever
will come let-him come, and. you:
had better. say the same thirig.
Rev. ~Robbs:said. this morning that

just ~what law or Jaws-you will

use. to determine who is in good

standing.

Well, thie: 37th. anniversary @
thé~~church is over, but not
word~ of thanks or casual: 1
flow sed subtle of Unaee ne~ ha
blished the church,~ But all |

messages for, because history |.
proves that if. you stool on. one
person you will stool on another.
