ADOPTION: In this week’s Explorer, the Bible lesson theme is:

has a good explanation of the process and permanency of it in the Roman
World. I will have some copies if anyone would like to read it.

For you, brethren, have been
called to liberty; only do not
use liberty as an opportunity
for the flesh, but through love
serve one another. For all the
law is fulfilled in one word,
even in this, “You shall love
your neighbor as yourself.”
Gal. 5:13-14 (NKJV)
And let us not grow weary
while doing good, for in due
season we shall reap if we do
not lose heart. Therefore, as
