This has been the theme verse throughout the course. N onconformity is not a Mennonite doct- rine but a Bible doctrine. Conforming is to be made like unto and Romans 12:1,2 tells us that we are not to be conformed to this World but to be transformed. We discussed the spiritual ideals of non- conformity along with other aspects, such as: business, choice of vocation, courtship and marriage, leisure time activities, and attire. The World is a sinful and ungodly soci- ety. In I John 2:15 We are told, Love not the World, neither the things that are in the World. '

In the business life, no person who is a Soldier of Jesus Christ will get entangled with the affairs of this world so much that it will hinder his spiritual life. Be ye not enequally yoked together with un- believersf' This verse also applies to courtship and marriage. . The Christian will be careful to have his program of recreation in keeping with his profession or godliness. To do all to the glory of God means that all our conduct under all circumstances will manifest the presence of God in our lives. In the study of nonconformity in attire We learn from I Tim. 2:9 that women are to adorn themselves in modest apparel with shamefacedness and sobriety. This course was taught in two sections by Brother Sidney Gingrich from Myers- town, Pennsylvania and included 52 stu- dents. -Naomi Gingrich and Louise Shank THE HOLY SPIRIT AND HIS WORK We took this study of the Holy Spirit and His work to learn more of who He is and how He works through the Christian's 1 e. When Christ left this earth He sent the Holy Spirit as a Comforter to the Christ- ian. The Holy Spirit is one of the God- head. He is a divine Person, not only an Influence. He was sent to earth as the SP11'itof Christ, for He was sent to glorify Christ. He is not above Christ. He convicts men of their sins, and leads them to repentance. He creates faith and effects .the new birth. He is the secret power .in a Christian, and our strength OYQI' Slfl. He empowers for witnessing, g1V9S gifts to and guides the church and fglkefgiiiigcithin us all the virtues and graces thgvgleflvve receive Christ as our. Saviour We bliirit comes and dwells within. After S , .9 1eV9 we are sealed with that Holy pmt Of Promise CEphesians 1:13J. a yilgioneed to exercise faith in and have increire for His continued presence and ledgeased Wofklllg- We Should acknow- for H,C1'9d1t and trust in the Holy Spirit IS indispensible work. The Bible is the best and safest text- book to study to learn of the baptism of the Spirit, the filling of the Spirit, and the sanctification of the Spirit. There is much more given in the Blble about the Holy Spirit that we first realize. Outstanding scriptures are John 3, John 14 to 16, Acts 2, Romans 8, I Corinthians 12, II Corinthians 3 and Galatians 5, , A - -Samuel Stauffer A -Warren Martin 1 ASSURANCE The aimvof this class is to answer the question, How can I know I am saved? I am sure this important question has bothered all of us as Christians at one time or another. We need assurance to give our faith a sense of reality, and to sustain happiness in our Christian exper- ience. Assurance is based on the finished work of Christ in His death and resur- rection. John 3:16. Many people today do not have assur- ance because they were never really born again. Also, it is a test of our faith. Do we really believe what God says in Ro- mans 10:9-10? Assurance can be obtained by having real faith and trust in God and His Word. A continued study of the Word, a vital prayer life and a cultivation of Christian races must follow g . Here are a few questions to ask our- selves to confirm our assurance: ' 1. Are we walking in the iight of the Gospel? I John 1:7. Have we confessed and forsaken our sins? I John 1:9. r ' Are we obedient to all the commands of Christ I John 2 :3-5. 4 Do we truly love our brother and are we loyal to'Christ and the Church? I John 229, 15-17. ' Assurance plays a vital role in our wit- nessing. How can we convince the world if we are not sure of our own salvation? My prayer is that this class, along with ' Brother Moses Baer, may our teacher, t have true Christian assurance as we go forth in a world of darkness and uncer- tainty. 2. 3. ...Amos L. Brubaker
