Menaced By Foe’ Old Nation Turned To Prophet Os Faith Romance Os Defeat Os Assyria By Supernatural Forces When Threatening .lews — Relation Os Religion To National Safety — What Sort Os God Have We?

By WILLIAM T. ELLIS One of the whacking big words that theologians, philosophers and other highbrow -, are fond of using is "anthropomorphism." It means "like unto man.” It is applied to tlie character of God. "Moderns" snort when .they use it, affecting to despise, an infantile, any mind that thus regards God us person ifiod. Our “emancipated” day prefers to think of the Almighty -if there really is such a Being—as a Primal Force, a Cosmic Inteili. gence, a First Cause. We are too wise and too big, they assert, to entertain the thought of a personal Deily. Os course, these "advanced thinkers" have to concede that the God of the Old Testament is an anthropomorphic God. So is the God of the New Testament: for Jesus seemed mostly concerned to portray God as a heavenly Father; and He taught us all to pray "Our Father who art in Heaven.” Tlie high water mark of Old Testament teaching is “Like as a father pitletli them that fear Him.V The New Testament's peak is a cross whereon the Son, dying cried "Father.” Indeed, the only God with whom our ancestors have done business for two thousand years is a per sonal God; One who is attentive to the cries of His children; Who answers their prayers and over rules their affairs. If God is not thus personal, and concerned with human lite, then His very existence is a matter of indifference to mortals. It is because we believe that God knows and cares, hears and answers, that we obey Him and love Him, and leave our lives in His keeping. The Fatherconception of God is not small; it is the largest possible. It takes a greater God to be personally interested, as Jesus taught in the life of every human being than it took to set tlie universe whirling in space. No diviner interpretation of the Deity is possible than set forth by Jesus who came to show us the Father. History And God This truth is the basis of our present Lesson. Judah was menaced by Assyria, the most powerful kingdom of the time. God intervened to care for His people and to deliver them. That is tlie whole story. There were highbrows and intellectuals and worldly-wise in those days, who felt themselves above the considerations of simple piety. Their “practical” plan was to make an alliance with Egypt against Assyria. They were the counterparts of our present-day statesmen who rely upon armaments and treaties to protect and promote their nations headless of the state of mind of the people. There is a pungent contemporaneousness about Isaiah's w rd, "Woe to them tnat go down to *«*•**•*« * The International Sunday School Lesson for September 23 is: “Isaiah Counsels Rulers.”—lsaiah, Chapters 7, 31, 36 and 37.

Here is the majestic metropolitan cathedral in Buenos Aires, the headquarters of the Catholic church of Argentina and the center of activity during the forthcoming Eucharistic congress which

Egypt for help, and rely on horses ' and trust In chariots because they | look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek Jehovah!” Our world is still going down to ( K”ypt—to the armament makers and to selfish nations in confer- ( Hiiee. We haven't the good sense i to see that an army of Sunday ■ School teachers are more power ' fill than an army with tanks, ar-. I tillery and machine guns. Poignant eloquence is in the ' passionate plea of Isaiah who ' might be speaking to our world in > 1934 "Turn ye unto Him from i | Whom ye have deeply re-1 I volted. O children of Israel.” Thai is the recurring message of these lessons, and of every other voice : that sees sincerely into tlie master motives of life. All organization. . all political cleverness, all economic measures, all pacts and arma-1 ments ar • in vain, unless there be , a new mind dominant in tlie peo- , pie themsehles uinind motivated ;by loyalty to the living God and | I His will. The deepest instinct of I : the race In religious. Once it is' given full play, in a supreme loy. alty, we shall have a new world j I of brotherhood; and not until then. I When all men sincerely pray, "Our i Father," then they will behave like good children and brothers; : and all the hosts of heaven will co- i joperate with them, even as the I Assyrians were smitten V ifhout ill- aid of a single Jewish sword. This an opportune moment to take down Byron’s poems and read the famous lines. Tlie Assyrian came down like a wolf on the fold. His cohorts all gleaming with sil-' ver and gold.” The Prophet's Part In those frantic days in tlie life of the Jews, when kings were terr- . ified by the Assyrian menace, we i find a serene and majestic figure ' in the character of Isaiah, who had become, established as the prophet !or interpreter, of Jehovah, in disi tress, the rulers appealed to him and he set forth the mind of God. He made plain the religious significance of contemporary events.; i And always, by exhortation, by ci-1 ; tation of history, and by meta- j phors, he incited to faith. He was a heartener of his nation, as well ■ las a counsellor of kings. In a dark ‘day. liis calm and intelligent trust ; in God was tlie one bright light. i Let no man say that preachers | have nothing to ej with the present world crisis. It is true that they should refrain from discuss- i ing definite measures of which I [ they have no real knowledge. But I in such times as tlie present it is the high duty of the minister of I religion to bring to bear upon cur. j rent problems the eternal truth of ’ the will of God. We need spiritual ; i trustees more than we need a ibrain 1 ; i trust. In a confused era, the call is ■ ’ loudest tor those who clearly see ' and bravely indicate the paths of 1 , righteousness and religion. The, i one voice which our day most ' ' , wants to hear is that which can ' say, "Thus saith the Lord.” God I give us Isaiahs! Our Modern Assyrias Modern moral and spiritual | guides will not hesitate to point out the perils which reside in our ' | contemporary Assyrias. What are ‘ the real forces which threaten ci-

vilization and our own nation? Mostly, these prophets of disaster are vague in their ominousness. ,We look to our true prophets to particularize. Various bugaboo* have been lift- | ed to frighten mankind technocl racy, corporate power, the sensa- : tlonal growth of large private 1 fortunes, the subjection of farm- , ers and workingmen into the status of peasantry, the Irruption of Asia’s hordes, the decline of indiI vidualism, etc. Any or all of these ' may be grave perils; but none is the real Assyria that threatens us. Doom will come, if It come* — and I am not fearful - when men ■ and women slump from the spiritual conception of life, and from a sense of responsibility to a Supreme Being who holds both Indi- , vlduals and nations to accountability fur their conduct. It the Dii vine teachings of man’s brother re- > sponsibility to man. and of oiled lienee to God's will as the supreme i obligation of life, fade out from human consciousness, then we ! shall sink into the slough of sen{sual selfishness, and of a brutish I "every-inan-for-hlmself ’’ manner of I life. Assyria will then have devas- ; tated us. Movings Os The Deep Certainly the scene is all set for i the modern Isaiahs, iu the United States and Canada, even more than in the rest of the world, there are profound stirrings of human sentiment. The deeps of life are moving. Fear is a factor. The sense of I fairness, and of concern for the common weil being is a still greater force. A questing to know the true way of the better life is also i widely evident. Never were ears Iso alert to hear the voice of true prophets. This is the supreme hour for the teachers of religion with a i clear message. Overwhelmingly, people want peace—international peace, and : that deeper causative peace which iis tlie human spirit’s highest reward. They need to catch the full import of Isaiah's word, as true now as when spoken, more than , twenty-five hundred years ago, “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on J Thee.” That is the Golden Text of | tlie present Lessun. it is also the golden truth for the present time. . | SEVEN SENTENCE SERMONS ’I Tilings refuse to he mis managed I long.—Emerson.
