Good morning, yes, a good good morning to all of you. It's moments of melody time again. Jerome Hines, the well-known metropolitan opera singer, was an unbeliever with no concern for the Lord Jesus Christ. He wanted to prepare an operetta on the life of Christ, and to do this, It was necessary for him to read the life of Christ in the Bible. He went to the Gospels and studied them carefully. It was during this study that God showed Jerome Hines that he was a sinner and that Jesus Christ was the true Savior. Jerome Hines came to Jesus Christ in repentance and acknowledged him as Lord of all. Today he takes every opportunity possible to witness for Christ and his saving grace. Now here's Jerome Hines to sing, I love to tell the story. I love to tell the glory of an indignant of all. of jesus and his glory of jesus and his love It satisfies my longing that nothing else could do. And now we're going to read some of that old, old story from the Bible. The Gospel according to St. Mark chapter twelve. Then Jesus was approached with a question by the Sadducees, men who say there is no resurrection. Master, they said, Moses prescribed for us that if a man's brother dies and leaves a widow behind him with no children, he, the brother, should marry the widow and beget children in the dead brother's name. There were seven brethren, the first married a wife and died childless. The second married her, and he left no children. And so was the third, and all seven married her without having children. And the woman died last of all. And now when the dead rise again, which of these will be her husband, since she was wife to all seven? Jesus answered them, Is not this where you are wrong, that you do not understand the Scriptures, or what is the power of God? When the dead rise there is no marrying or giving in marriage. They are all as the angels in heaven. But as for the dead rising again, you never read in the book of Moses how God spoke to him at the burning bush and said, I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Yet it is of living men, not of dead men, that he is God. You are wrong, then, altogether. Here were men who should have known the sacred scriptures, but they didn't. The sad fact is that this is repeated over and over again today. And then look at Jerome Hines, a metropolitan opera singer who decided to search the scriptures. And as a result, he was born anew into the family of God. Now he loves to tell the old, old story. We'd like to urge you today to take time to read more from the Bible, from the sacred scriptures. In the scriptures you'll find how to obtain life eternal.
