Conservation Aid Set My answer By BILLY AM Here's a question I've had im my mind for some time. Please give me an honest answer. The idea of God (hat people siich as yourself preach is so difficult to grasp, how is anyone to believe it? T. I have said many times that God cannot he put into a test tube, nor can He be proved in a laboratory. But it is also true that God can't be disproved either.

If you try to account for the wonders of our world without a plan and a Planner behind it all, you have greater problems than the idea God presents. 1 think it's harder to be an atheist than a believer. But you ask, how is anyone to believe'' The answer is FAITH. Hebrews 11:6 says: "Anyone who comes to Him (Christ) must believe that He exists, and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him." Faith, is the bridge to God It's a gift whereby God enables us to believe, and it we exercise it, it brings us to Him. Faith is not anti-intellectual.

It is an act of man that reaches the limits of our senses. Missouri will receive about $2 million in federal aid for fish and wildlife restoration and hunter safety programs for fiscal 1975.
