Ferment In Old Jerusalem Nothing! New In History Re rX t i w°? ? Ut An Episode: Epoch Was When ( ty War Aroused By Pentecostal Tongues And Pi. T M X stery Thal M ’dc Christian Church A Reality.

By WILLIAM T. ELLIS Os recent weeks Jerusalem has "made" the tint page of the newspapers. Riot and killings have again drawn the world’s attention to the Most pivotal spot on the world's map. These latest outbreaks have symbolized hatred and fear yet they nevertheless recall that greater tumult in the old city when something new and beneficient set Jerusalem in an uproar—the Day of Pentecost. There have been many episodes of fighting in the City of'Peace;' but only once was there such a miracle-crowded day as that which we know as the birthday of the Christian Church. It was filled with tumult, aqd sensations and wonders, and it set the city by the ears; but Pentecost's phenomena all made tor peace and for a new order in the world. A fresh era had begun for* humanity, the dispensation of the Holy Spirit, who has been working mightily ever since. Even secular leaders perceive that it is His spiritual power that alone can suffice for our present critical needs. What new legistlation, wars, radical changes in government and economic reconstruction cannot do in this hour of humanityjs distress, the transforming Spirit who came to the Church at Pentecost is still able to do At Pentecost, the whole Church could gather in one room; today, myriads of great buildings ai (I needed to hold one Sunday's outpouring of Christian worshipers. Now, as then, the difference between an assembly of the Church and a secular gathering is the presence of the Spirit, who was manifested at Pentecost by a rush ing wind, by tongues of fire, and by a polyglot glorification of God. The Paraclete's Descent One does not have to be a graduate of a theological seminary in order to understand the truth that spiritual work is possible only by spiritual power. And the whole enterprise of the Church is spiritual It is concerned primarily with the souls of individuals; trusting those souls, when redeemed, to find a remedy for the world s so- ».»»•»»** * The Sunday School Lesson for July 5 is the Beginning of The Christian Church. —Acts 1:6-14; 2:1-47. ».»*»*»**

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1936.

I rial ills. When Jesus departed from earth His great bequest, to make effective His work of redemption, was the Paraclete—the one who stands instead of Another; the Advocate; the Comforted, or Strengthener; the Teacher; the Other Self of the ascended Lord. Without this mighty Spirit, whose mission is to carry on and fulfill the work of Jesus, the disiciples could do nothing. His function is to take of the things of Christ and make them plain. He was sent to he wisdom and power for every witnessing Christian. All .[that the Master had in person done for His friends would henceforth be done, in fuller power, by the Paraclete, who should be their light and their life. They waited for Him before beginning their work of witness; and He came, as promised at Pentecost. The Shaken City A mircale? Os course: what oe- , eassion better merited a miracle than the formal fulfillment of the i promise of Christ that He would I send His Spirit upon His friends? • This was the inauguration of the Church Militant. Herein was the I empowerment of Christianity for ■ its world task. That the roar and commotion of ,- it should shake the city was amazing. yet logical. This was the bei ginning of a new era in the spiritual life of mankind. The supreme mystery of the Lord's promised Other Self, the Paraclete, was fulj filled at Pentecost. Signs and won- ; ders attended it, which is only commensurate with the importance of the event. If God is ever ! to display His peculiar power on , | earth, what occasion could better i warrant it than this Day of Pen- ■ tecost .when the Spirit descended IJ in symbolic tongues of fire, quivering above the head of each disciple. to signify that henceforth the Church had found her voice i for all races and peoples ami nai tious. Life's Real Crisis ’' Life's real milestones are alI ways something that has happenped within the heart of man. Be- ■ liefs are more powerful than arm;|ies. As a matter of demonstrable i 1 experience, faith's victories outI rank those of force. Pentecost has I meant more to the world than the ■ ■ conquests of Sargon or Remeses j or Alexander the Great or Julius I Caesar or Genghis Khan or NaI poleoil. Nobody can explain Pentecost: we can only record it. Certainly I something happened at the first

great Jewish Festival In Jerusalem following the Crucifixion. And the consequences of that something are still a traceable influeence in the whole world. Farewell To Materialism What has become of the "freethinker," who used to boast that he would not believe anything he could not see or touch or explain for himself? Probably he is listening to the radio! It is hard for a. really thoughtterialist, since such spirituals and ful person nowadays to be a mauncomprehended agencies as the radio play an ever-increasing part in our common life. We do not even understand the nature of our most everyday servant, electricity. We do know, without fully comprehending them, that strange ties of light and ether bind this whole immeasurable universe into a long unsuspected unity. Os < Id, scholars were baffled by the Bible's stress upon the invisible and the spiritual as being the real. Faintly we glimpse, by our modern knowledge, the truth of this teaching. Real wisdom admits that "now we know in part" but the smaller part Steady Truth For Tottering Times Now, as at Pentecost, the truth of the Resurrection, and <y the endnement from above, is making over ugly lives into loveliness; timid lives into heroism; selfish lives into Yi c a rious nes s. The change in Peter and his companions was no greater than the change in individual person known to us in our own neighborhood, and in Christian converts un Uganda and China and Persia and Egypt. Characters arc changed by Christ. The Gospel sincerely stated and truly accepted, does transform men and women and communities. Though all the world totters, let us hold fast to this central effect of the Christian religion. There is cure for souls with Christ. All that is seriously wrong with human society, with umian koines, with human lives, may be made right by the coming of the Saviour. The Power thal lifted Peter up from the slough at denial in the courtyard of Caiapas to the heights of Pentecost, still pervails and prevails.
