The OHIO INDEP NDENT BAPTIST Mr. Huff went on to ,point out that when we are not con ciou of God in our live at all time we are living a though God were not a realit,,. "In • fact, we are living as though we were practical athiest - a though God did not exi t." He further pointed out that when we live without the reality of God' pre ence we are a leep piritu– ally and we make error in deci ions and judgment which affect our future . We mu t eventually arrive at the place where we can no longer continue in thi outward appearance of form and di play. We mu t admit that we are ' fake. " It i ,then that we need the reality of Hi pre ence in our live . Mr. Huff illu trated by bowing how he a a boy enjoyed tarting hi father 's car and "gunning" the motor but that a he grew up thi no longer ati - fied · he wanted to "go omewhere. ' In our Chri tian live we need to be "going omewhere." We need to be growing and if God's pre ence i a reality in our live we 11 not be "gun– ning the motor' ' but will be di content if we are not "going omewhere." There were ap,proximately eight young people who re ponded publicly to the invitation eeking the reality of the pre ence of the Lord in their live . When men peak ill of you, live o that no one will believe them. Bible seminary trainees equipped for service It continues to be the purpose of Bapti t Bible Seminary, John on City, N.
