THE DALLAS METHODIST
The Christian Church was built
upon the fact of Jesus Christ, His
life, death, resurrection, and con-
tinued presence and upon His
teaching. The Church at its best
has always sought to know the
mind of Christ as found in His
teaching. ‘The pronouncements of
Church councils, the words and the
decrees of men, have been secon-
dary; His word has been primary.
When He came He came not build-
ing altars and churches, but “He
came preaching”. By His word the
Church is renewed and. corrected.
His word, is the word of Life.
It is fitting that during Lent we
should focus -our attention on the
teaching of our Lord. Our Lenten
sermons are based upon the gen-
eral theme—*“And Jesus Said”.
The sermon this Sunday, ‘And
Jesus Said—The Soul Has Pri-
ority’’. Our Worship Service is at
eleven o'clock. Pre-school children
are cared for in the Church Nur-
sery during the Service.
