The Saving Power Of Jesus Christ It is often said — don’t let anyone cause you to doubt or question the hope you have in Jesus Christ unto eternal life. It’s true we should never doubt the promise of Jesus to save us by His free gift of ever- lasting life. But we should be careful to consider whether we are in the right relationship with Him whereby we will be saved. Out of all the people of Noah’s day when the flood waters were upon the earth, only eight people were saved. When Jesus walked the Earth two thousand years ago, nearly all of the spiritual leaders were teaching for doctrine the commandments of man. The calmaity of all calamities is for anyone to be tricked into believ- ing that they are perfectly safe in a lost condition. In Isaiah 8:20, the test is revealed that will safeguard anyone from being lost. Because of the fact that the saving power of Jesus leads to righteousness or right living in harmony with His character, this test quickly shows what spirit is behind most of what’s being presented these days. The focus is on the earthly that’s passing away rather than on the preparation neces- sary to live forever in the heavenly. The day is coming when many will say to Jesus that they have done many good things in His name but find themselves forever lost be- cause they continued “living unsaved.” They never took hold of the sanctifying power that would transform them to love righteousness rather than sin. (Matthew 7:21-23). Because it is sin that’s the problem, we must know that in 1st John 3:4, sin is defined as lawlessness, or as one version states it to be, the transgression of the law. It is also shown in Romans 7:7 that it is the Ten Commandment law that warns us of sin in our life and not the ceremonial law of sacrifices and ordi- nances that expired by limitation at the cross of Calvary. Now it must be understood that keeping any or all of the Ten Com- mandments cannot save anyone. It’s only Jesus that can save. But willfully continuing to not keep any one of them will ultimately end in total condemnation. In the time remaining there will surely be a grand appearance of godliness in the world, but without the saving power — of Jesus Christ.

Sports Update By Joan Seaman

Lady Wildcat softball tightened up when it needed to. The girls started the season 3-0, lost a 7-6 heartbreaker to Palmetto and dropped a game at Lake Wales before going to Lemon Bay on Fri- day night for a 1-0 shutout victory in the first district game of the season. This week’s games will include the two other district oppo- nents, DeSoto and Sebring. ——— Meanwhile, Wildcat baseball, which had won all five pre-season games against opponents such as the Ridge Bolts. Lakeland Dread- naughts, LaBelle Cowboys and Avon Park Red Devils, ran into some tough tangles last week. After beating Lake Wales, Hardee lost to Lemon Bay and Berkeley Prep. There are a dozen seniors and a half dozen pitchers (including underclassmen) to spot the Wildcats. The junior varsity Wildcats beat Lemon Bay handily on Friday night but continues to have many cancellations and rescheduled games to contend with, making it difficult to get actual game expe- rience for these young men. ——— Keyon Brown and Joshua Almaraz lead Hardee weightlifting. The senior duo is working hard to qualify for the regional and state meets. PHOTO BY MARIA TRUJILLO ——— The junior varsity Wildcats trounced Lemon Bay on Friday night. The team includes (front row, from left) Isaac Flores, Girls tennis is a 5-2-1 after a tie with Lake Wales when rainout Adam Salas, Ryan Moore, Brandon Franks, David Badillo, Russell Weems and Dalton Tubbs; (back row) assistant cancelled the deciding match.

Results from boys events have, Ethan Cord, Andy Manley, manager Frankie Coronado and Head Coach Travis Tubbs. so far, been unavailable. ——— Hardee tracksters are doing well. The boys won a five-team meet at Sebring last week.
