In Present Moral Crisis, Old Teachings Still Stand Dramatic Clash Between Modern Standards And Historic Racial And Religious Conceptions Os Life—The Issue That Underlies all Other Issues

i . By WILLIAM T. ELLIS This is a millitant lesson. If cavers of the greatest of all conflicts now under way amongst mankind. It shows the battle lig is that are clearly drawn between the new notions that have swept the world and the explicit teachings of Scripture concerning standards of life. On one side are arrayed the “emancipated" generation, with their war-cry, '‘Everybody's Doing It!” Definitely opposite them are the Bible-ibelievlng Christians, whose charter of conduct is "Thus saith the Lord ,’’ and whose slogan is that of the Crusades, "God wills it.” There is no use in taking refuge in vague phraseology, or in shutting one's eyes to the issue. The fight is on. The most spectacular

fronts are in Russia and in Germany'; but there is activity along | the whole line of Christendom. The I issue is really simple, though often . beclouded by gas attacks of many words. That issue is whether lite | is to be lived according to explicit Christian teachings, or whether it is to be dominated by the “do-as-you-please" philosophy of the new paganism. The future nature of civ. ilization is at stake. Are Bible Morals Outgrown? Since the war, there have been several widely-publicised attacks upon the Ten Commandments and the Christian precepts of life. 1 recall at least three new Decalo- ’ gues that have been offered as sub-; stitutes for the Law given to Mos- , es—though I warrant that none of my readers can remember, any! ;more than myself, what these! I “new" Ten Commandments had to' I say?,Simply to read them was to | realize their inadequacy and absurdity. Attackers of the Bible have been legion throughout the ages; but their names have passed into oblivion. while the old Book remains ; not only the best selling publication on earth, but also increasingly i the accepted rule of conduct by mankind. The newest and most impressive conceptions of a revis-; ed social order find their genesis in the Bible, and they seek to approximate its ancient standards of i justice and brotherhood. Instead of having been outgrown, the Scriptures are today newly coining into their own. “Don't Be A Heathen!” In modern language, the exact paraphrase of Paul's first admonition to the Ephesian Christians in our present Lesson, would be "Do not be a heathen!" His words were “that ye no longer walk as the Gentiles also walk.” Persona of deliberative .mind, and possessed of some historical knowledge, perceive that the “liberal" and "modern" code of conduct, which has swept myraids of both young and older persons away front their traditional moorings, is nothing more nor less than a reversion to the paganism of the world into which Christianity came. Unbridled self-indulgence, the consuming pursuit of pleasure, the apotheosis of sensuality, the Teign of greed, the vogue of gambling, the prevalence of superstition—these were characteristics of the GraecoRoman civilization The stern morality of the few strict Jews was a matter of jest. Martial fidelity, and chastity in all its expressions, were flouted. Robert Graves’ recent b. ok, "I, Claudius," mirrors the morals, or lack of morals, of the Rome that contemporary witli the apostolic period. Into this putrid mass of deca, dence, Christianity came, with its clear and unequivocal teachings of chastitsy, charity, justice, kindliness and brotherliness. The recipients of Paul's letter, who dwelt at Ephesus and at other centers of city "culture," had no doubt as to what he was writing about. Against the black background of prevailing paganism he drew a plain picture of Christian character and conduct. His friends, disciples of Jesus, were to be utterly different from their heathen neighbors.

ler In mind how sharply it contrasts | with the ’ modern" mode that we . have been witnessing of late, in j'fldninge recrudeacenee: — "This I say therefore, and tes- , tlfy in the Lord, that ye no longer walk as the Gentiles also walk, in I the vanity of their mind, being ' darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God, because of tlie ignorance that is in . them, because of the hardening of . i their heart; who, heln g past feel- , | ing, gave themselves up to lasci. , jviousness, to work all uncleanness ( j with greediness. But ye did not so ! learn Christ; if so be that ye heard , I him, even as truth is in Jesus; that ;e p<ii as ccr.ccrnliig , your former manner of life, the old man, that waxeth corrupt as- , ter the lusts of deceit; and that ye . be renewed in the spirit of your 1

mind, and put on the new man. . that after God hatli been created ’ in righteousness and holiness of truth Let him that stole steal no more, but rather let him , labor, working with his hands the I thing that is good, that he may have whereof to give to him that . hath need. Let no corrupt speecli I proceed out of your mouth, but 1 such as is good for edifying as the , need may be, that it may give ' ■grace to them that hear Let all : ' bitterness, and wrath, and anger, ' , and clamor, and railing, be put a way from you, with all malice; and be ye kind one to another, .tender-hearted, forgiving each olhj er, even as God also in Christ, I 'forgave you And be not drunk!en with wine, wherein is riot, but i |be filled with the Spirit " A “Different" Generation : Those, pregnant phrases of Paul ! i will be analyzed in thousands of SuTiuay School classes—which, by the way. are the most prevalent and powerful forums for the consideration of human behavior to be found anywhere on earth today. ! Their radical nature, in the light of their background, will be made: ' clear. Many teachers will look up ' 'the cult of Diana, which prevailed ' in Ephesus at the time the letter ' i was received; and they will point I I out the sort of orgies which this ■ I worship connoted. They will ex- i ( plain that real lure of paganism consisted in the unbridled carnal i license which many “emancipat* ed" persons are trying to impose upon the life of today. Also these students of the Bible and its background will call attention to the I hideous cruelties of class distinction and slavery which prevailed; and they will not oral! the singular significance of the linking of sensuality and greed, a phenom-1 enon that has concerned contempporary psychologists. In sensational contrast, we find that the believers were summoned to live a white life amidst this dark background. "Saints in Ephesus!”—what a phrase of contradictions! If Christians could follow the Jesus Way in the Ephesus j of Paul’s time, they could do so I anywhere. As I have repeatedly i trodden the excavated streets of I rich and voluptuous Ephesus, which 1 once echoed to the tread of Paul, and John, and Mary, the mother of Jesus, and Mark, and Luke, and other New Testament characters, I have brooded most of all upon this dramatic truth, that the dis- ! ciples in Ephesus were required to | live a different life, one of ipurity amidst filth, gentleness amidst i carnal ity, benevolence amidst I greed, brotherly love amidst rampant selfishness. And the new law and new life that constrained those first century Christians in Ephesus is still binding today upon every one who wears the name of Jesus. He has So choose, even as did they, between the Christian standards of life and the pagan standards which today confront him.

ALLEN G ULELAND Learning at Luncheon No one really expects children to have a knowledjfe of their nutriI tional needs, or calories, vitamins j and the like. Elf left to themselves with an opportunity to choose, they would eat chiefly of those things that “taste good.” Hence, a problem faces parents and teachers ■ alike, for when such ! important information is available 1 we can’t just let it accumulate and lay idle. It is too significant to health and success and happiness. It must be put to work in the lives of people. But the majority of parents either do not have scientific knowledge of foods and nutrition or they don’t know how best to teaeh children. Thus the responsibility falls to the educational institution of the community which these same parents support and to the staff of teachers who understand how to make knowledge function in the lives of children. It is in this light that the school lunch is taking form. Instead of being just a convenience for those who can’t go home at noon, it is coming to be regarded as a learning situation. It is a laboratory where one of the chief essentials of life is practiced in a correct manner until habits and attitudes are formed. Parents say that a good school lunch situation influences food selection and table manners at home. Principals say it makes for ' better school morale. And the pupils approve because they like it. What about home workt Dr. Ireland will dieeues it next week.
