A woman was the prize in one knightly saga. A king put up his horse, falcon and sword for a maiden and engaged in a game, winner take all. The king lost.

It is said that American chess champion Bobby Fischer has gotten the highest stakes in A wmsm Hi "WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE?" 2nd Psalm and Acts 4:25.

Am quoting from a letter just received from Asheville, N.C. Sir: It is with Interest and utmost disgust that I read your column. You deliberately misquote The Bible and history like most religious fanatics. Oliver Cromwell, like Adolph Hitler was a nut. He was a traitor to his country and beheaded his soverign King.

For this he is no doubt in hell today. People like him all through history were enemies and persecutors of God's people. England finally had to go back to the monarchy and some tolerance of all religious conviction. Your type venom is nothing more than facism under the guise of religion. Like your communist counterpart you are of the beast and bear his mark 666.

There are 666 Denominations, the exact number of the beast and false prophet of satan. As for myself, I am a Baptist, but when God says to separate ourselves from your kind, we will and thus have avoided God's wTath. Take care how you misuse the Bible. The late Sam Jones made the following comment concerning that heart of yours: "That heart in your bosom is a 'muffled drum' beating a march for you to the cemetery, and the Judgement of God Almighty!" Hebrew 9:7 tells man "It is appointed unto man once to die, but after this the judgement." "THE JUDGEMENT!" Consider these judgments of God already announced over 2,500 years ago, written down and preserved and found in the 3rd chapter of the Book of the Prophet Ezekiel: "Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from Me. When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life: the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity: BUT HIS BLOOD WILL I REQUIRE AT THINE HAND.

Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his inquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. "Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; ALSO THOU ILAST DELIVERED THY SOUL." (It occurs to offer the above as an apology to those who get offended with this scribe.) Please also read Ezekiel Chapter 18 and chapter 33. P. 0.
