THE PEOPLE OF TWO WORLDS
Jesse M. Hendley
Luke 20:34-38

If you have your Bibles, turn with me, please, to Luke
20, verses 34 to 38, as we speak to you on THE PEOPLE
OF THE WORLDS. "And Jesus answering said unto them,
the children of this world marry and are given in

DOWN AND SPEAK TO US, AND LET US KNOW HIS MIND AND HIS
HEART TOWARD US, AND TOWARD EVERYTHING THAT IS VITAL
IN OUR LIVES THE PAST, THE PRESENT, AND THE FUTURE---
believe me, friends, IT WOULD BE THE MOST IMPORTANT
THING IN ALL THE WORLD.

And yet, THAT IS WHAT WE HAVE, in the pages of the
BIBLE! THE WORDS OF JESUS! "And JESUS SAID...." Oh,
the IMPORTANCE of the words of the BIBLE, and
especially the words of the LORD JESUS.

Now what does Jesus TELL US in this parti ...
