In Story Form, Jesus Taught Higher Economics Os Life Thrust Into Midst Os Present Bewildering Discussions, The Parable Os The Talents Sheds Light Upon Guiding Principles.

By WILLIAM T. ELLIS All the world is suffering from a neadache over economics. No other topic gets more consideration in present-day prints. Some of us are frank to confess that we can hard; ly make head or tail of the subject. The right of economics to be called a science may fairly be challenged, since on every phase of it —for instance, the gold standard--equal-ly eminent specialists hold diametrically opposite views. The plain man cannot appeal to authority for counsel, since authority itself is completely contradictory. Millions look to Jesus for leadership in all of life: and the nearest He ever came to a discussion of economics was in the Parable of the Talents, which is our present Lesson; and in the Parable of the Pound. In both of these, however, the Great Teacher was illustrating a principle of life. Unlike the economists, His words do not bewilder us. He set forth the truth In a story which even children can understand. ] While He was no economist, in the modern meaning of that word. ! Jesus did make clear a truth which j should be the determining factor in i all economics; as, indeed, in all of ! life. That truth was the teaching of faithfulness in stewardship. All ! wealth is held merely in custody for a sovereign Lord. An Old Sto r y’s Timeliness j In the light of the atotrusencss , and unmtelligibility of many modern writings upon economics, and I other subjects, by the college pro. I fessors, who use a shop talk far beI yond the average man's ken, it is j well to remind ourselves that the first qualification for teaching is clearness. Commonly, Jesus conveyed His messages in story form, j "Without a parable spake He not junto them.” Unless a man can ' make his meaning dear, he has no call to teach, by tongue or pen. Our lesson parable pictures a mail, traveling afar, who turned over his affairs to his servants to handle in his absence. He knew the rnenT and their capabilities. So to one he entrusted five talents, to another two, and to third one. The first two had doubled the amount entrusted to them by the time their Lord returned; but the third, the one-talent man, buried the money in the ground, and returned intact the original sum. The first two were rewarded with equivalent promotion and praise, but the timid soul received only reprobation and punishment, and his talent was given to the one who had ten. No Socialism Here There is small comfort, for the Socialist and the Utopian in this story. At t.Te very outset, Jesus postulates that all men are not equal in abiliy. Everybody with common sense knows that they are not. Life is made up of lifters and learners. If any of the grandiose schemes now current for the redistribution of wealth were put into effect, millions of men would simply become loafers and spongers. Deprived of the spur of necessity they would not work nor would they concern themselves with the common welfare. They would be the new “idle rich,” a problem and a burden to their fellows. We cannot get away from the Jesus doctrine, that to whom much is given of him shall much be re. quired. Responsibilities differ according to ability. Some persons owe society more than others because their natural gifts are greater. Even the two sons of Adam and Eve were not alike, wrote: “You may grind their souls in the self-same mill, You may bind them heart and brow; But the poet will chase the rainbow still, And his brother will follow the plow.” Sane thinking, in the face of a changing world, recognizes the difference in the charactiV and capacity of individuals; yes, and of races and nations. No scheme for steamrollering mankind into uniformity has ever been devised; or ever will be. All should have com. mon rights and opportunities, but the strong should not be held down to the level of the weak—else how could the weSk be served? *•«»»»»»» *•*»»»«•»! * The International Sunday School Lesson for November 25 is: “The Christian Steward.”—Matt- 25: 14-30. *•*«*«***

. Getting Hold By The Handle What I have written is no apol- I logy for the present inequitable so- | 1 cial order, and no defense of the r sort of persons who possess most I 1 of the world's wealth. In very few , ’ instances lias ’ this been acquired | by superior ability, or administer-1 ■ ed for higher ends. To get hold of the subject by the ’ I handle, we must first grasp the " j idea that Jesus was teaching re-: ■ j sponsibility, faithfulness and stew j ' ardship. The most capable person, •ils under Divine obligation to the | r j best account of his abilities: and ’ even the least may not plead his | cowardice and incompetence as an 'excuse for failure. ’ j Nor can we be blind to the exf plieit teaching that there is a <iuy f |of reckoning to come. Selfishness t|and slackerism will not go unpun'iished: nor fidelity and ability go • j unrewarded. Every man must, at ?, some day or other, give an account. 1 ing of the use he has made of his r } life- A solemn and awesome truth l ,is this. Every Man A Trustee i Our frivolous-minded generation, 1 which regards life as one grand •(spree of "sett-expression," is In j 1 need of this Lesson. Life means 1 something, and means it tiemen-' 1 dously. Any body who fails to see' f that he is but a trustee of his pow- ' ers. responsible for their highest ’ use. Is blind to the simplest sign! I ficance of existence. We are all j i put here, as Philip Brooks said, ’ with a work to do and with ability -,to do it. Failure to fulfill this high I I‘est purpose of our existence is a| -1 real life failure. ■, "To serve the present age, ’ 1 My calling to fulfill’ >|is the goal of all real ambition. ’j As 1 have been called upon to •; counsel with college graduates. ■ 1 during the present depression, 1 1 iiave been struck by the hopeless ’jness of their attitude They all ’ • wanted jobs: none asked mil how [he might carry out a dellnife purilpose. This lack of the feeling that tj"l must build," "I must invent,” “I i! must write," “I must preach," "1 , •' must adventure,” "I must farm,’ j > [ has been most baffling. Life has -; no real jobs for those who do not, ■' seek to do a service. Our youth l t need a visitation of the spirit of j • stewardship. Only thus can real; • dignity and meaning be imparted ' to existence. Human Vegetables ) Colonel Lawrence, of Arabia. - once said to me, in describing a I certain nationality, "He is a vegel table.” That phrase stuck; and ev. i er since I have been labelling human vegetables—persons without initiative, responsibility or pur- ! pose. Jesus put tremendous signii ficance into living by His tale of i the talents- Every man is a stewt ard, Divinely endowed. He is givi en opportunity up to the full extent s of his powers. And he is answer--1 able to his Lord for what he does. > There is no human ability what- - ever that is outside of the scope of > stewardship. Skill in labor, a qual- - ity of faithful industry, ability to • sew, sweep and cook, a disposition '' toward one of the arts, a genius for . I friendship, the gift for money-mak. ) ing—these, and all other capabili- ) ties, are talents, to be used and I expanded to the full for the service of man and the glory of God. ) It would be an error to consider i this great Lesson as merely a re- - minder to give more money to good - causes. The whole content and • meaning of life are embraced.
