Charlie Wilson (right) chats with Carole Roush, chair of the Gallia County Democratic Party, during a brief campaign stop on Thursday in Gallipolis. that gathered on the public parking lot in Pomeroy. Wilson’s stop in Gallia County came on the heels of visits to two locations in the Sixth District where positive announcements were made concerning job creation. On Wednesday, he was in Lordstown where GM announced the creation of 5,000 jobs at its plant there. On Thursday, just prior to the Gallipolis visit, Wilson was in Piketon where USEC announced the creation of 160 jobs pertaining to uranium cleanup. “I think there’s some good things happening,” Wilson said. “Most of the time, we’re being met with very hopeful and good facts of job recovery. I think that’s what our country needs right now. We need to work our way out of this recession. I think it begins with getting back to building it America. The sooner we do that the better off we’re going to be. We are working in Congress now to close the tax loopholes that encourage people to send business offshore. We’re going to get it done.” Wilson said Congress is also working to help small business by allowing owners to pay off loans in an easier fashion and making more funds available for small businesses. “We think somewhere between 60-70 percent of Please See STOPS, A3 Beth Sergent/photo Bill Johnson, Republican candidate for the Ohioʼs Sixth Congressional District, made a Pomeroy a stop on his RV tour Thursday afternoon.

Covington will headline the festival with a free performance starting at 6:15 p.m. on Saturday at Star Mill Park. The singer spoke to The Daily Sentinel yesterday from his farm outside of Nashville, Tenn. “We’re bringing a high energy show,” Covington promised. Part of that show is Covington’s identical twin brother, Rocky, who is also a percussionist in his band and often hits the stage first, confusing the fans with a case of mistaken identity. “If you think you see me on stage first and thought I’d be better looking, I really am,” Covington joked. Covington promised fans will hear several songs from his debut album which hit the number one slot on the country charts as well as songs from his new album. He also teased there may be some “choice covers” throw in, saying he loved Elvis Presley, Pink Floyd and Joe Cocker. Covington said he wanted to acknowledge the people all around the country who are keeping festivals, like the one in Racine, going. He added it seems like a lot of these festivals are shutting down due to the economy and for a community to pull together and start one up and do so well was encouraging. “The main reason these festivals do so well is because of the people who go and support them,” he Please See HOST, A3 Please See BUCKY, A3 Bend Area C.A.R.E.

(AP) — A Florida minister who had created an international furor with his plan to burn the Quran on the ninth anniversary of 9/11 canceled the event under intense pressure Thursday, saying he agreed to back off after reaching a deal to move the location of a controversial mosque near New York’s ground zero. The imam planning the New York mosque said no such deal has been reached. The Rev. Terry Jones announced his decision Thursday afternoon, standing outside his small church alongside Imam Muhammad Musri, the president of the Islamic Society of Central Florida. However, Musri and the imam planning the New York mosque disputed Jones’ contention that a deal had been cut. After the news conference, Musri told The Associated Press there was an agreement for him and Jones to travel to New York and meet Saturday — on the actual anniversary of the 9/11 attacks — with the imam overseeing plans to build a mosque near ground zero. “I told the pastor that I personally believe the mosque should not be there, and I will do everything in my power to make sure it is moved,” Musri said. “But there is not any offer from there (New York) that it will be moved. All we have agreed to is a meeting, and I think we would all like to see a peaceful resolution.” Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf said he was surprised by the announcement and that he would not barter. Jones, the pastor of a Florida Pentecostal church of 50 members, has said that he believes the Quran is evil because it espouses something other than biblical truth and incites radical, violent behavior among Muslims. Jones on Thursday said he prayed about the decision and that if the site of the mosque was moved, it would be a sign from God to call off the Quran burning. “We are, of course, now against any other group burning Qurans,” Jones said during the news conference. We would right now ask no one to burn Qurans. We are absolutely strong on that. It is not the time to do it.” His decision comes after a firestorm of criticism from leaders around the world. President Barack Obama, the top U.S. general in Afghanistan and several Christian leaders had urged Jones to reconsider his plans. They said his actions would endanger U.S. soldiers and provide a strong recruitment tool for Islamic extremists. Jones’ protest also drew criticism from religious and political leaders from across the Muslim world. They warned that the plan would put Americans in danger around the world. In Afghanistan, hundreds of angry Afghans burned an American flag and chanted “Death to the Christians” to protest the planned Quran burning. Musri thanked Jones and his church members “for making the decision today to defuse the situation and bring to a positive end what has become the world over a spectacle that no one would benefit from except extremists and terrorists” who would use it to recruit future radicals. Russ Blackburn, Gainesville city manager: “It’s very good news for Gainesville and good news for everyone involved.” Jones’ neighbors in Gainesville, a city of 125,000 anchored by the sprawling University of Florida campus, also have said they disapprove. At least two dozen Christian churches, Jewish temples and Muslim organizations in the city have mobilized to plan inclusive events — some will read from the Quran at their own weekend services. Jones’ Dove Outreach Center is independent of any denomination. It follows the Pentecostal tradition, which teaches that the Holy Spirit can manifest itself in the modern day. Pentecostals often view themselves as engaged in spiritual warfare against satanic forces. Iran to free female American for holiday clemency TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran said Thursday it will free Sarah Shourd, one of three Americans jailed for more than 13 months, as an act of clemency to mark the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. The imprisonment of the Americans has deepened tensions between the U.S. and Iran, a relationship already strained over Washington’s suspicions that Tehran is trying to manufacture nuclear weapons — something Iran denies. Bak Sahraei, the second counselor of Iran’s UN mission, sent an e-mail confirming the release of Shourd, following up an earlier text message from the Culture Ministry telling reporters them to come to a Tehran hotel on Saturday morning to witness the release. The site is the same one where the three were allowed the only meeting with their mothers since they were detained in July 2009. Iran claims they illegally crossed the border from Iraq’s northern Kurdish region and had threatened to put the three on trial for spying. Their families say they were hiking in the largely peaceful region of Iraq and that if they crossed the border, it was accidental. “Offering congratulations on Eid al-Fitr,” the ministry text message said, referring to the feast that marks the end of Ramadan. “The release of one of the detained Americans will be Saturday at 9 a.m. at the Estaghlal hotel.” The gesture could be a calculated move by Iran to soften international criticism of its judiciary. Iran has faced a growing storm of protest over a stoning sentence for a woman convicted of adultery that has been temporarily suspended. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has in the past proposed swapping the three for Iranians he says are jailed in the U.S., raising fears that the Americans are being held as bargaining chips. There was no word on the fate of the other two Americans, Josh Fattal, 28 and Shane Bauer, 28, to whom she got engaged to while they were in prison. Releasing prisoners and showing clemency is a common practice in the Muslim world during the fasting month of Ramadan. Iran’s official IRNA news agency said Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has already pardoned a group of prisoners for Eid al-Fitr. The report gave no number of the freed inmates and did not say whether they also included the American. Shourd, 31, had told her mother she has serious medical problems. Nora Shourd, said her daughter told her in a telephone call in August that prison officials have denied her requests for medical treatment. The mother said they talked about her daughter’s medical problems, including a breast lump and precancerous cervical cells, and her solitary confinement in Tehran’s Evin prison. During the American hostage crisis in 19791981, Iran first released women and AfricanAmericans as a sign of respect for women and mercy toward minorities. In Washington, State Department spokesman Mark Toner said U.S. officials are in contact with Swiss diplomats who handle U.S. affairs in Iran. “We don’t know, frankly, what Iran is contemplating at this point,” Toner said. “If this turns out to be true, this is terrific news. The hikers’ release is long overdue.” A statement by Samantha Topping, a New York-based spokeswoman for the three mothers, said they are “urgently seeking further information.” “We hope and pray that the reports are true and that this signals the end of all three of our children’s long and difficult detention,” the statement said. “Shane, Sarah and Josh are all innocent and we continue to call for their immediate release, so that they can return home together and be reunited with our families.” Bauer’s mother, Cindy Hickey of Pine City, Minnesota, told The Associated Press that the mothers had hoped for a release during Ramadan because they knew it was a tradition. She said she was excited about the release, even if the hiker being freed isn’t her son. “I’m hoping that even if one is released, the other two will follow,” Hickey said. “I’m holding my breath for the official word on this.” Iranian leaders have repeatedly suggested a link between the jailing of the Americans and Iranians they claim are held by the United States. The Swiss embassy in Tehran has handled consular affairs for the United States for about 30 years, since after 1979 Iranian revolution. Swiss diplomats refused to comment Thursday on any possible release of the three detained Americans but are expected to be involved in any transfer. Once the American is released, normal protocol would be to turn the person over to Swiss diplomats to be taken to the embassy. There are direct commercial flights to Geneva a few times a week. While flights to Dubai, such as the one taken by the Americans’ mothers, are much more frequent, they are probably all booked because of the holidays. If the released American requires medical care, Geneva would also be the more attractive option. Ali Reza Shiravi, the head of Iran’s foreign media office at the Culture Ministry, confirmed that he had sent the message summoning reporters to the hotel. The high-rise Estaghlal hotel near Evin prison is where the three Americans’ mothers were allowed to visit them in May in a highly publicized trip. Iran’s president has in the past suggested the Americans could be traded for Iranians claimed to be held by the U.S. Iran in December released a list of 11 Iranians it says are being held in the U.S. They included a nuclear scientist, Shahram Amiri, who disappeared in Saudi Arabia but has since returned to Iran. Also on the list were a former Defense Ministry official who vanished in Turkey and an Iranian arrested in Canada on charges of trying to obtain nuclear technology. Three of those on the list have been convicted or charged in public court proceedings in the United States. The circumstances surrounding some of the others are more mysterious. Ali Reza Asgari, a retired general in the elite Revolutionary Guard and a former deputy defense minister, disappeared while on a private trip to Turkey in December 2006. The list also includes three Iranians who Tehran claims were abducted in Europe and sent to the U.S.: merchant Mohsen Afrasiabi, who it says disappeared in Germany, as well as electrical engineering student Majid Kakavand and a former ambassador to Jordan, Nasrollah Tajik, who it says vanished in France. Errant drone near DC almost met by fighter jets WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. military almost launched fighter jets and discussed a possible shoot-down when an errant Navy drone briefly veered into restricted airspace near the nation’s capital last month, a senior military official said Thursday. The incident underscores safety concerns with unmanned aircraft as defense officials campaign to use them more often during natural disasters and for homeland security. Navy Adm. James Winnefeld Jr., head of Northern Command, said Thursday that the August mishap could hamper the Pentagon’s push to have the Federal Aviation Administration ease procedures for drone use by the military in domestic skies. “It certainly doesn’t help our case any time there’s a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) that wanders around a little bit out- side of its controlled airspace,” said Winnefeld, who also is commander of the U.S. North American Aerospace Defense Command. “We realize the responsibility on our part to include the technical capability and proper procedures. We’d just like to be able to get at it quicker.” Currently drones are used for patrols and surveillance along the nation’s southern border, and sometimes at the northern border. But the military wants to use them more during hurricanes and other disasters to evaluate damage or target rescue efforts. The FAA has been working for some time on new regulations governing the use of drones, but has yet to complete them. And the August incident brought one of the FAA’s key concerns to bear — the prospect that remote operators can lose communications with the aircraft. Visit us online at mydailysentinel.com Your online source for news Drones routinely operate in war zones, such as Iraq and Afghanistan, where there is much less business jet or small plane traffic. FAA officials say there is a greater danger of collisions with such smaller aircraft in the U.S., particularly when drones are flying at lower altitudes away from large cities and airports, in areas where planes aren’t required to have transponders or collision warning systems. In such cases, according to the FAA, it is more important for pilots to be able to see each other and take action. Winnefeld said he was in the operations center watching when controllers lost the link to their Navy MQ-8B Fire Scout during a test at the naval air station at Patuxent River, Md., and it flew into the capital region’s restricted airspace. “Do you let it fly over the national capital region? Let it run out of gas and hopefully crash in a farmer’s field? Or do you take action and shoot it down?” said Winnefeld. “You don’t want to shoot it down over a populated area if you can avoid it. We were going through all of that calculus.” As the fighter jets were about to be launched, he said, the Navy was able to reprogram the helicopter-like craft and bring it back. Winnefeld said he agrees with the need for airspace safety, but maintains there is great demand for the drones and the military should be able to get them into the air more quickly when needed. “We can’t move quickly enough for me to solve this problem,” Winnefeld said. “We need to push forward into getting the technology and the permission and the comfort level up to where we can do this as a matter of routine. This is where the future is going.” Speaking to defense reporters, Winnefeld said discussions are continuing with the FAA to find ways to streamline the approval process. At the same time, he said the Defense Department also must address FAA’s safety concerns by insuring that the drones have the software and systems necessary to fly safely. He also said he is considering the need for a slower and lighter piloted aircraft that could be used during events such as outdoor sports games, political conventions or inaugural activities. The high-flying F16 fighter jets are too fast for some missions. While his review is only just beginning, Winnefeld said there may be a need for an aircraft that can fly much more slowly and at lower levels to monitor events. He said he’d like to have some answers within a year. �Page A3 The Daily Sentinel Obituaries Friday Society Virginia Alberta Backus Virginia Alberta Backus, 88, Middleport, passed away on September 8, 2010, at Pleasant Valley Hospital, Point Pleasant, WV.

Wilson said unemployment remains the hot topic on the campaign trail. “The unemployment numbers are under 10 (percent); we’d like to see them under 8 (percent),” he said. “It’s not happening fast enough. That’s the reason for more incentives. Jobs are what it’s all about. If we get jobs, I think all the other issues will start taking care of themselves. “When people go back to work, they’ll begin paying taxes, which is going to lower the deficit, which is going to begin the recovery of our economy,” he added. “And education, healthcare, everything else, all fit when people are working. I think that’s the major key.” When Johnson, RPoland, stepped off his RV in Pomeroy on Thursday afternoon, the first thing he noticed might’ve been the Ohio River, but the first thing he heard were complaints from Meigs County Republican faithful about a federal government they feel is out of touch and out of control.

The back of the “credit card” says it’s not valid unless signed by President Barack Obama and Wilson.

POMEROY — Meigs County Genealogical Johnson said if elected, he would work to balance the budget, reduce the tax burden and work with (who he hopes will be the next governor) John Kasich, R-Westerville, to make the Sixth District a business-friendly place. Johnson said there is a “wealth of a trained workforce that knows how to manufacture” in the district; a workforce that needs jobs. “Government needs to walk beside business, not on their backs,” Johnson said, explaining he hears hesitation from entrepreneurs in the district who want to grow but are distrustful of “what the federal government is going to do.” Johnson said one of the many fundamental differences between himself and Wilson is his belief in a smaller, less intrusive government. He then accused Wilson of supporting what he called “Nancy Pelosi’s job-killing policies,” saying 400,000 jobs had left Ohio and the unemployment rate had increased significantly in the Sixth District with Wilson in office. Johnson then pointed out Wilson voted for “Obamacare” (the health care bill), a bill which he said will tax small businesses, again “killing jobs.” Johnson explained the biggest complaint he hears about Wilson while traveling the district is, “He says one thing when he’s here but when he goes to Washington, he does something else.” What Johnson will do if elected remains to be seen. Wilson and Johnson are facing opposition from Constitution candidate Richard E. Cadle and Libertarian candidate Martin J. Elsass.

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution EPA wants to know chemicals used in gas drilling BY MATTHEW DALY ASSOCIATED PRESS The Environmental Protection Agency asked nine natural gas companies Thursday to voluntarily disclose the chemical components used in a drilling technique called hydraulic fracturing. The agency said the information is important to its study of the controversial drilling practice, also known as “fracking.” Crews inject vast quantities of water, sand and chemicals underground to force open channels in sand and rock formations so oil and natural gas will flow. The EPA is studying whether the practice affects drinking water and the public health. Drilling companies have largely sought to protect their chemical formulas, calling them proprietary. Environmentalists are concerned that the chemicals, some of them carcinogens, will taint underground water supplies. The EPA is taking a new look at fracking as gas drillers swarm to the lucrative Marcellus Shale region in the northeastern United States and blast into other shale formations around the country. Fracking is exempt from federal regulation. The process is touted as the key to unlocking huge reserves of clean-burning natural gas. Supporters say the practice is safe, noting that it is done thousands of feet below ground, much deeper than most water sources. They also point out that authorities have yet to link fracking to contaminated drinking water. The EPA said in March it will study potential human health and water quality threats from fracking. Letters were sent to nine leading national and regional hydraulic fracturing service providers, including Halliburton, Schlumberger and Key Energy Services. Chris Tucker, a spokesman for Energy In Depth, a Washington-based group that advocates for the energy industry, said the EPA study offers an important opportunity to demonstrate that fracturing technology is safe, efficient and well-regulated by the states. “If EPA believes it needs specific information to ensure its study draws on the best science and data available, we’re hopeful the agency can coordinate with our members to ensure it has everything it needs, and uses that information in an appropriate way,” Tucker said. The EPA requested the information within 30 days and asked the companies to respond within seven days whether they will provide all of the information. If not, EPA said it is prepared to use its legal authority to force the companies to provide the information. In Pennsylvania, where the Marcellus Shale is being pursued in a modern-day gas rush, state legislators and environmental regulators are pushing for a law to require drilling companies to disclose what’s used at the well sites. “We have broad right to know about the use of chemicals and discharges of any sort into the environment,” said John Hanger, Pennsylvania’s environmental protection secretary.

The NLRA, passed in 1935 during Franklin Roosevelt’s first term, does not, however, apply to public-sector employees — including state and federal workers — because the thinking was that this would over-politicize government and cause a conflict of interest between unions and politicians. In a Weekly Standard piece by professors Fred Siegel and Dan DiSalvo titled, “The New Tammany Hall,” this problem is described: Unlike private sector unions, the sheer number of workers represented is not the linchpin of [the public sector unions] influence. Private sector unions have a natural adversary in the owners of the companies with whom they negotiate. But public sector unions have no such natural counterweight. They are a classic case of “client politics,” where an interest group’s concentrated efforts to secure rewards impose diffused costs on the mass of unorganized taxpayers. In the 1960s, many states began chipping away at the wall of separation between unions and public workers. In 1965, the Michigan Legislature revised the Public Employment Relations Act (PERA) to establish mandatory collective bargaining and exclusive representation for state and municipal government workers. This has caused the number of publicsector union employees to skyrocket. A conflict of interest would be as follows: First, a government union elects politicians by funding their campaigns and organizing a massive getout-the-vote drive; second, the politicians support employee pay increases, generous pensions, and condition of employment; third, the union takes dues (read: taxpayer money) and starts the cycle all over again for selected politicians. At both the state and national level, public-sector union support for many Democrats has been well documented. One of the largest public-sector unions in the country, the American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) has given over $40 million to politicians since 1990, with more than 98 percent of that going to Democrats. The SEIU, AFL-CIO, and United Steel Workers have all promised big help in the coming election. In return, the Democratic Party has voted nearly lockstep with these unions’ demands. But political cronyism knows no party lines, and many Republicans likewise have been guilty here in Michigan. In just the past year, the state has had several such instances. Last fall, nine Michigan Education Association-supported House Republicans nixed a 3 percent cost-saving plan for the school aid budget. In April, MEA-supported Senate Republicans watered down a modest bill that would “increase state and school employee payroll contributions to their pension system by 3 percent, cap pension ‘service credits’ at 30 years, and create a somewhat less generous defined benefit system for new school employees.” At the same time, a union subsidiary of the SEIU pushed GOP Senators into coming up short on a vote that would have opened a prison to competitive bidding and privatized it, if privatization promised to save money. Last August, one Republican state senator came under fire for introducing a bill that would have forced some 42,000 in-home health care workers into a union, sending approximately $6.6 million in taxpayers’ money to the SEIU in the form of “dues.” Unfortunately, what has happened in Michigan has taken place elsewhere in America. The end game for these types of relationships is already happening in our country’s most public unionfriendly states: in California, where budget gridlock has forced the government to issue IOUs and minimumwage salaries to public officials, and in Illinois, where the governor has promised massive tax hikes combined with severe cuts to education. Both states have some of the highest tax rates in the county, and yet both face pension obligations that they cannot ever hope to pay. These types of political dealings and financing may not be illegal, but they’re still an offense to the political process. Politicians can take money from governmentemployee unions and then vote on legislation that directly improves the financial well-being of these entities. A possible quid pro quo exists that would not if public-sector unions were restricted from giving money to politicians. Politicians granting unsustainable government-employee salaries, benefits, and pensions is a problem everywhere, but the states with the strongest public-sector unions will have the hardest time correcting the problem. More broadly, as long as these incestuous relationships between government unions and the political class remain in place and unchallenged, the size and scope of government will continue to grow.

The new pioneers BY SARAH VAN GELDER Americans are facing a troubling reality. The economic recovery they were promised has not materialized. There’s growing talk about a “new normal” — a new way of life to take us through a long period of failed recoveries. There are, indeed, good reasons to believe we won’t go back to the old ways. But this new normal doesn’t have to be a time of chaos and decline. Instead, many Americans are building stronger families and communities, rejecting the waste and greed that made our economy implode, and turning instead to self-reliance and the sort of neighborliness that embraces diversities of all sorts. Why not go back to the consumer ideal that was the foundation of the American Dream? Many who live paycheck to paycheck have lost jobs, homes and hopes for an education, retirement security and belief in a more prosperous future. CEO pay is on the uptick, as are corporate profits. But the anti-tax, anti-regulation fever that enriched some undermined the real wealth of our country — our education system, infrastructure, communities and natural resources. And much of our economy has been outsourced, making it difficult for stimulus spending to get growth going again. But it’s not only a stalled economy that is threatening our future. Leading scientists now say that climate disruption is behind the massive flooding in Pakistan and the record-breaking fires in Russia. Shortages of food, water and energy — with attendant price spikes — along with displacement and migration, are likely, not just abroad, but here in the United States. As if that wasn’t enough, the Gulf oil disaster is showing the limitations of another sort of security we once took for granted: cheap oil. As the easy-to-exploit oil is used up, oil companies are turning to increasingly difficultto-reach sources of oil. This means we are likely to see still more expensive disasters associated with oil, whether caused by human error — as in the Gulf — or just part of the extraction process, as seen in the communities devastated by mountain-top removal or tar sands exploitation. Analyst and author Michael Klare says we have reached the “Age of Tough Oil,” and every barrel of oil we extract will be more difficult and expensive to get than the last one. That brings us back to the prospects for an economic recovery. With cheap oil a thing of the past, an economic recovery that increases demand for energy will drive prices even higher. That energy price increase would stall any recovery. So what are Americans doing about these very real threats to our security? Some are exploiting citizens’ fears for their own political ends, blaming President Obama, immigrants or climate scientists for the bad news. These strategies not only distract us from the real threats, they divide our country while offering nothing that can help solve our challenges. Others are choosing to ignore or deny the depth of these challenges. But there are people across the political spectrum, in every part of the country, gathering with friends and neighbors to build sources of security close to home. These folks are turning lawns into vegetable gardens and organizing their neighbors to start pea patches and farmers markets. They’re getting together with neighbors to swap preserves and skills, and to relearn the skills their grandparents had. They are protecting local resources — water, land, forests and fisheries — that can offer sustenance into the future, and they are starting up energy and weatherization cooperatives. They’re paying off their debt, moving their money out of big corporate banks to local banks and credit unions, and supporting local businesses. As they do, they are freeing themselves from the global corporate economy that moved jobs overseas and fueled the speculation that undermined the real economy of jobs, goods and services. These folks have chosen instead to use their resources to strengthen local economies and the small and medium-sized businesses that are most likely to create the new jobs of the next economy. These are the pioneers of the new normal, and you can find them building the foundations of a hopeful future in urban centers, small towns and suburbs. Maybe you’re one of them.

Paul starts with instructions to citizens in v. 1: “Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work.” Verse 2 gives instruction for dealing with others: “…speak evil of no man, be no brawler, but gentle, showing all meekness unto all men.” He describes the former lives of those who are now Christians: “For we ourselves once were foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers [various] lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another” [v. 3]. The kindness and love of God toward man; man’s salvation through God’s mercy; justification by His grace; hope of eternal life are the themes of vs. 4-7. Paul returns to good works in v. 8: “This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.” After warning in v. 9 to “avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain,” Paul describes the factious man, one who is contentious: “a man that is a factious man, after the first and second admonition reject; knowing he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself” [v. 10]. Throughout the New Testament the importance of preserving the unity of believers is stressed. Jesus, in His prayer shortly before His arrest, said: “Neither pray I for these alone [the apostles], but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; that they all may be one, as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me” [John 17:20,21; note especially that the oneness of believers will lead the world to believe that God did indeed send Jesus]. The household of Chloe informed Paul of divisions in the Corinthian church [1 Cor. 1:11]. A careful reading of 1 Cor. 1:10-13 shows that God, through the apostle Paul, makes plain His displeasure at division. 1 Cor. 3:3-6 calls those who divide the Body, the Church, “carnal,” and those who “walk as men.” No, readers, the divided state of those who call themselves “Christians” is not pleasing to God! The plan for next week is to look closely at the 7 “ones” of Ephesians 4:4-6. Just before closing the book of Titus, Paul once again stresses good works: “And let our people also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful” [v. 14]. Wherever one finds Christians, whether in the home, in the schools, in the workplace, in recreation — one will see them doing good works, being productive members of society. Please bring your Bibles, come to the assemblies of the church of Christ [meeting at 234 Chapel Drive], and search the scriptures with us.

Page A6 Friday, September 10, 2010 A Hunger for More In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth. With those words we are swept from boundless darkness into the glorious illumination of the countenance of God; from the brooding silence of an empty cosmos we are made the audience of the indescribable melody of God’s voice as He spoke Creation into being. And though deceit, destruction, and death entered His world through the very ones He lovingly created to walk with Him in bliss, the grand and eternal themes of restoration, reconciliation and redemption triumph again and again. From Adam to Peter, from Nineveh to Jerusalem, God’s hand ever seeks to bring forgiveness and relationship with Himself through what are at times discouraging, depressing and even painful trials. In Genesis chapters 37, 39-41, God begins to work mysteriously in the life of Joseph, one of the sons of Jacob whose father Abraham had been the recipient of a special covenant with God. Because they choose to drink the sour elixir of jealousy, Joseph’s own brothers cast him into a pit and sell him into bondage, delighting in his humiliation. Joseph could be ruined by resentment and defeated by hopelessness after such an ordeal, but God has other plans. Though rejected, Joseph’s trust in God remains and God blesses him. He works hard and with integrity follows this new path on which his feet must trod. But suddenly he is beset with false accusations and is punished as a criminal. Joseph could be poisoned by discouragement and broken by despair after this second wave of failure in his life, but God has other plans. Profoundly moving in the faith and character of Joseph, God takes him from the bottom most pit of his life and sets his Thom Mollohan feet on the path toward renewal. Surely you see the hand of God moving Joseph closer to where God would most use him. By allowing him to be falsely accused and imprisoned, Joseph finds himself in the company of Pharaoh’s royal prisoners. Then, as God works through Joseph to reveal Himself to the royal attendants, word is ultimately taken to the most powerful leader in the world at that time and Joseph becomes his closest advisor and chief administrator! Although things are not the same as before trials invaded his life, Joseph is ushered into an amazing restoration! Once rejected, he is now held in very high regard indeed. Once falsely accused and wrongly punished as a liar and philanderer, he is so thoroughly trusted now that the supreme leader of the land entrusts him with power nearly equal to his own. Though the wounds of his past have left deep scars, Joseph has been restored beyond his or anyone’s wildest expectations. Joseph deeply suffers at his brothers’ hands, but a day finally comes when he and his brothers are reconciled. Unbelievable that after such suffering at their hands, Joseph one day falls on their shoulders, weeping with joy over receiving again the brothers he had lost. And because of his faith in God’s promises and his obedience to God’s will for his life, Joseph’s suffering becomes the means by which the “world” is redeemed from famine and God’s covenant people are preserved in order to ultimately inherit all the promises that God had made to their forefathers. Today, God’s heart still beats with the pulse of reconciliation, restoration and redemption for His creation today. And we do well to listen to words spoken by the Savior to a people who thought that God didn’t care anymore… “My Father is always at His work to this very day…’” (John 5:17 NIV). Restoration? Yes! God grieves over the brokenness of our lives and desires that we be lifted up and restored to the high and noble life for which He created us. “If a man denounces his friends for reward, the eyes of his children will fail. “My steps have held to your paths; my feet have not slipped. I call on you, O God, for you will answer me; give ear to me and hear my prayer. Show the wonder of your great love, you who save by your right hand those who take refuge in you from their foes.” (from Psalms 5:5-7). Reconciliation? Yes! God desires to renew again our unfettered fellowship with Him through faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. Keep in mind that this reconciliation is supremely centered upon our relationship with God Himself. “For if, when we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His life” (Romans 5:10). But it spins off for us both a capacity and a desire to love one another as He has loved us (John 15:12). Redeemed? Yes! Our Father hates that we have been overpowered and enslaved by sin’s soiled enticements. Even now He yearns for our release and works in human hearts to break the bonds of selfishness and self- Blessed are the pure in heart; for they shall see God. Matthew 5:8 satisfaction so that sin may no longer be our master. “…He entered the Most Holy Place once for all by His own blood, having obtained eternal redemption” (Hebrews 9:12b). Christ came and died and lives again that the world may have hope in spite of its brokenness and helpless condition. Are you in the midst of a pit of discouragement or doubt? Are you haunted by humiliation and defeat? Have you been falsely accused or feel abandoned? You might be discouraged. You might even be defeated. But God has other plans for you. For any life that is surrendered to Him through Jesus His Son, there is reconciliation, restoration and redemption. As you allow God to unfold His plans for you, his power transforms your life and the lives of others in eternal ways. “I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the One who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God” (Romans 8:1821 NIV).

In July, the church held its annual Vacation Bible School to serve the children in the community. Pastor Shannon has also expressed an interest in working with youth, providing help to seniors and single parent families, and helping in the community as much as possible. The Sunday morning services are more contemporary and a nursery and a Bible lesson for children are offered as well. The church’s Annual Biker Sunday will be held on Oct. 3 at the church. The church’s regular service times are 10:30 a.m. on Sunday morning, 6 p.m. on Sunday evening and small group Bible studies for all ages are held at the church at 7 p.m. on Wednesdays.

I want you to know, upfront, my son isn’t married to the mother of his son and, like so many other young people these days, they are living together. Neither my wife nor I approve of their current living arrangement. Certainly, we’d rather they were married. Some of you may be thinking we need to get over this, that “everyone is doing it” these days. I beg to disagree. Although it seems more and more as though it’s a rarity, not everyone is having sex before or outside of marriage. Believe it or not, there are young men and women alike for whom such sexual relations and living arrangements are altogether unacceptable. Kudos to them, and thanks be to God. May they never compromise on their beliefs. On the other hand, we didn’t raise our son to behave as he has. In fact, we had hoped our parental influence was more influential and enduring than what it was. When the news came that we were going to be grandparents, by no means did we receive it Thomas Johnson as the highlight of our day. Even so, there was no way we could ignore the fact — and neither were we inclined to shun our son and his girlfriend. As I shared with some that we had a grandson “on the way,” the response was anything but what it would have been when I was our son’s age, and single. Then, my father most likely would have moved to disown me, and my mother would have been devastated. Fact: my mother had a long history of heart disease. Had my brother and/or I at anytime or in any way caused her any great distress, we always knew we would suffer the wrath of our father for doing so. Long story short: aside from some typical boyish shenanigans, we generally behaved ourselves; the “or else” was too ugly to contemplate. Therefore, getting a girl pregnant before or outside of marriage was absolutely, positively, never an option. Of course, it wasn’t at all unheard of. Mom and Dad knew of other parents who suddenly and unexpectedly found themselves becoming grandparents. While our parents sympathized with them, we were also being told they had better never find themselves in those shoes! They didn’t. But, like I said, my wife and I have. His name is Caleb Thomas, and last Friday night I held him for the first time. And while he was smiling at me, he filled his diaper. Honestly, I admire “multi-taskers” — and now it seems I have a grandson who is one. Oh sure, I know you’re thinking babies do stuff like that all the time. However, this isn’t just any baby, or another baby boy. This young man is MY grandson, and as I held him close to my side I remembered it was a little more than twenty years ago when I held his father for the very first time. I thought my heart would burst with pride whenever I held our son. I’m pleased to report our grandson and his mother and father, too, are doing quite well. Caleb already is blessed in the sense that both parents are committed and Friday, September 10, 2010 Purpose Pastor Shannon Hutchison and family SYRACUSE — The Syracuse Nazarene Church has welcomed Pastor Shannon Hutchison and family to the community. The Hutchison family comes to the church from the Grove City Church of the Nazarene where the couple and their children served for over 12 years. The installation service took place on June 27. The family was welcomed by the Syracuse Nazarene Church and Page A7 involved; these days that isn’t necessarily the norm. Admittedly, I had mixed feelings about becoming a grandfather given the circumstances; pride wasn’t one of them. Notwithstanding my initial reluctance to accept the inevitable, there is now a beautiful, healthy and fully functioning baby in my life. I cannot condone sex outside of marriage, but neither can I condemn those who engage in it. God hasn’t put me here to do either. This side of heaven people are prone to act in ways unbecoming of God’s will and word. Thus, there will be consequences for us to contend with. For me it was a grandson I was apprehensive about meeting; now, it’s a grandson I want to see and to hold again. Leave it to God to adjust my attitude. I thank God He did. I do not know Caleb’s future, any more than I know my own. I do know God has been good to me, and will be every bit as good to Caleb. If in my lifetime I can impart just one thing to Caleb, I would want him to know the love of God in Jesus Christ. May you know this, too. (Rev. Thomas Johnson is pastor of Trinity Church in Pomeroy, Ohio.) One of the most important things to learn in life is purpose. God is a God of purpose. Everything in life has a purpose including your own life. I assure you that you were not created to simply fill up space in the earth. You were created by God with purpose. God’s purpose for your life is great and full of God’s ideas, passions, desires and impact to the world around you. The Almighty created you to be a mighty person of valor to execute the mandate of heaven in order to bring heaven’s order to earth. Think about that! Whether as a minister, a teacher, a dad, a mom, student, or whatever your calling in life is, it is designed so that you could be all that God wants you to be for His glory. As I talk to people of all walks of life I find that many people, including Believers, conduct their lives without purpose. They often conduct their lives based on how they feel, want or think must have. Our lives are designed with purpose. Our purpose is what creates our desires and has us thinking about certain things that produce value and worth to others, individuals as well as communities and nations. Furthermore, this principle of purpose extends even to nations, which includes people like you and me. All nations have a purpose that has been predetermined by God. One of the most important details to consider is why God set up nations and where men should live. Scripture reveals, “God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him…” (Acts 17:27). God did not create nations just to be an economic success or to have an impressive system of social beliefs. Every nation was created and employed by God to lead men to Him. He gives each one an opportunity Alex Colon to accomplish their assignment. However, if the job is not being done, woe to that nation! Nations do not fall without reason. Perhaps, they fall when they fail to fulfill their purpose. Likewise, many individuals today fall or fail their own lives, their loved ones, their employers, and their nation simply because they failed to accomplish the assignment given to them by God — their Purpose. It is our responsibility to discover God’s purpose for our lives. Our purpose is often hidden in our trials, often hidden in the deserts of our wilderness experiences and most definitely revealed in the person and the character of Christ. The Word of God is the best place to begin the process of discovering our God-given purpose. The most miserable person is not the one that lives life with regrets. The most miserable person is the one who lives life without purpose. You see, purpose encourages, it pumps you up, it motivates you ad it keeps you wanting to get out of bed every day. Purpose! In John 10:10 Jesus said: I have come that you might have life and have it more abundantly.” Hidden in the words “life” and “abundantly” is the concept and the goal of Purpose. Make it a great Purposeful week! (Rev. Alex Colón is pastor of Lighthouse Assembly of God in Gallipolis. Online at www.lagohio.org.)
