! Creamed Comments On The Sunday School Lesson

Creamed Comments on the Sun day School lesson, II Timothy 2:112; 4:5-8 for Sunday. June 18. This lesson is part of a letter written by Paul to his Christian friend, Timothy, in charge of the church at Ephesus; it gives admonitions to be a good soldier of Jesus Christ. v. 1. "Thou, therefore, my son. be strong in the grace that to in Jesus Christ." It is a mistake to think that living the Christian life I?, easy. Our greatest need is Christian grace ami divine strength to endure ail things. v. 2. "And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the name commit thou to faithful men. who shall be able to teach others." Instead of the written Word of God it was the spoken Word of God that was the means of projecting the gospel truth Into the mind of other*. Teaching oth <>i* by spoken words and example is God’s plan for Christian witness-1 Ing. v. 3. therefore endure hardness, as a good aohidier of | Jesus Christ." Hardships endured! willingly help make a good soldier. A good Christian soldier take* life as he finds it and with grace and strength maintains his character and conduct; in doing this he is a good Christian witnews, the first requisite of a child of God. v. 4. "No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him that hath chosen him to be a soldier." (>ur vocations, our interests, our pleasures, our associations need to he so related to Christian ideals and service that one will not become entangled with secondary matters. That which matters most is to win others to Christ and to strengthen believers in the faith. v. 8. "Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised kom she dead according to t”! The emphasis is on the living Christ. Since no founder of any other religion rose again, Christianity is the true religion, for Christ died and came forth trom the grave. v. 5. “Wherein 1 suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds: but the word of God is not bound." A mesaenger of the Word of God may be bound, bnt that can't happen to the Word. All attempts to destroy the Bible have failed. r. 10. "Therefore 1 endure all thlpge for the elect’s sake, that they may also obtain the salvation which is Christ Jesus with eternal glory." Paul was much sustained by the thought that his labors and sufferings were. In the providence of God, beneficial to others. Most men fail to realise the power of their influence on others by their daily examples. vs. 11. 12. "It is a faithful saying: For If we be dead with him. we shall also live with him; if we suffer, we shall a too reign with him; if we deny him, he will also deny us.“ Fidelity Is the mark of a good soldier. If we do our part. God will do his. If we die to sin we live to righteousness; If we sacrifice, we reign; if we deny Christ, he denies us. The general i name of the enemy which a good soldier has to fight Is "sin." It Is a victory to reac h the place where sin does not make a strong appeal for it to then when we arcs "dead with him." v. 5. “But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry." To watch

is to live at one's beet and this Involves suffering at times in doing the work of evangelising the world beginning at home: In this work is seen the proof of being a good soldier. V. 6. "For I am-now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand." A good soldier Is not afraid to die. vs. 7. 8. "1 have fought a good fight. I have finished my course. I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day; and not to me only, but unto all them also that love hbs appearing." Let It never be forgotten that there Is a reward of righteousness Io lhe faithful both in this world and in eternity, be a good soldier of Christ pay big dividends. o |®RSlJ(Ti6us?’| Ngtus j Dr. Walter A. Maier of Concordia Theological Seminary. St. Louto, Mo., who commands one of radio's largest listening audiences, urges that “momenta of silence be set aside for pre invasion prayer." "Surely as thousands of American men will be called upon to lay clown their lives during the conquest of Nasi Germany," Dr. Maier said, "the home* front should sup port the battle front by invoking Almighty's help. Without His Intervention the- slaughter can be brutal beyond imagination." After visiting centers of war Industry throughout the country Marion J. Creeger, executive secretary for the Christian Commission for Camp and Defense Communities, said he expected that the need for a religious ministry to transient worker* would continue after peace : returns. The commission's work, said Mr. Creegor, still increases. Evangelical work goes on also among the several million foreign' worker* in Germany. though under difficulties. Just as Japan has forced large numbers of Buddhist priests to work in war plants, so Germany usee Frenc h Belgian and ■ other priests as sac tory hands. In ‘ view of the restrictions on religious activities among the foreign workers, these men have elected to be workmen by day and priests in their leisure time. Incidentally, there Is an insistent report afloat that during the Christmas season Hitler himself went to confession for the* find time in 35 years. The National. Columbia and BlueNet Work Broadcasting systems have never permitted religious organizations to buy lime or ask for ' money. The Mutual Broadcasting System has ruled that alter next September 14. all religious program-* over Its network shall be forbidden to solicit funds; this Is done at a sacrifice since one fourth of the total (12,000.000 paid for time came from religious broadcasters. The "Old Fashioned Revival Hour" led by Dr. Charles Fuller spent last year 11.566.130; the Lutheran Hour 8500,000; "The Voice of Prophecy," a Seventh Day Adventist program, >474.7X6; “The Young People's Church of the Air 8305.420; "The Detroit Bible class" 8270,370; and “The Wesley Radio 8172.384. o * OwPkBACMBB C| Nobody ever escapes the penalty of violating the moral law. t Just because retribution does not follow our acts Immediately, we are Inclined to make ourselves believe we can "get away with them." Clever lawyers find way* of evading man made laws and juries are often persuaded by cleverly devised arguments to acquit the guilty. It is not so with God's laws'; Is no escape. The mills of Gwi grind slowly, but tbe grist Is sure. Progress means that the course must be finished. A hammer used for “social purpoms” is a com mo a guisaace. ■ swun in Shroyer Lata Beach. i
