ABRAHAM’S PRACTICE OF BROTUERBOOf LESSON TEXT - -Generis It MS GOLDEN TFXT-Let there be "« strife I pray thee. between me ... for we be brethren.—Genes i« 13 8 As we study the contrasting self ishness of Lot. we see the true generosity of Abram and the brotherly love which prompted it in bold relief In a world where men reckon even their friendships as something which must yield some financial return, it | is good to stress the fact that kind- , ness and sacrifice are recognized and rewarded by God Abram, after dwelling for a time in Canaan, had gone down into ; Egypt- because of a famine iu his own land. After many trying ex- I periences. he returned to his promised land and there he prospered | mightily under the good hand of God. Unlike many who forget God when they become rich, we find ; Abram I. Meeting Prosperity With Godliness Gv. 1-4*. | "was very rich." That ■ would be almost enough to consti- ; tute 4 spiritual obituary notice for many, a man’s spiritual life. But. Abram did not let his riches come-between him and God. He soughb out the alter which he had first built at Bethel, and there he called upon the name of the Lord once again Note then, that riches in themselves need not destroy a man s ■ character or spirituality if they are ! held is a gift from God. and tor j His glory. Meet growing prosperity I with increased godliness and all will i be well 11. Meeting PraHesia With hind■ess iw. 5-9). Abram's nenes, and ti>ose of Lot. ■ were largely m docks and herds For them there had to be great areas of grazing land, ana in the rocky secties where they found themselves, grass was scarce. Result’* A fight between the herdsmen Lot. the younger, should have taken the lead in meeting that situation. but his selfish heart was too small for that But Abram, eager for peace and brotherly love, indicated at once i.is wißingness to do anything necessary to preserve peace. One could not ask a finer indication of true bigness in a man. “Big m«u use their piesuge to serve great ideals Abram used his tremendous ■ advantage to do a beautifully generous thing to eliminate strife Not many men are big enough to follow this course" tW R White). Only God can make a man that big, but God can do it for any one j ci us. If Christian people would listen to the words of Abram, “we are brethren" tv. B'. and put them into practice, there would be an immediate end to all the foolish strife which divides God's people. There is no call for compromise with untruth, nor any oceastea for softhearted generosdy which will only spoil its recipients. We are talking about the hseest and mteUi-: gent use of kindness and tact between brethren. When kindness meets problems. the problems disappear. Why not try it? IU. Meeting Selfishness With Love *.w Ih-ii-. Lot made the typical choice of the wordly-minded man. the one which would give h-m the best returns in ' dollars and cents. It seemed like a shrewd thing to do. but it resulted ir. disaster, for it meant pitching h.s tests over inward the wickedueM of j Sodom. Abram bad to re scue Lot a gam and again, tram the results of his : deeishw.: but thus in fcve he met the arrogant selfishness of his fool- i xsa nephew God rewarded Ahram by a renewal of His covenant with him tGer,. isilt-is!.

GOP Plans Campaign For Two-Term Limit Work On Congress, States For Action Washington, July 20 — tl P> — >;. ? ui>i.. an committee headquarters here is expected shortly to i open the naiional campaign to impose a tw<»terni limit on presidential service. House Republican L ader Joseph W Marlin, Jr Mass., already li.cj»ur 't‘- party leadership on record for a limit. He argued that third and fourth terms could lead to abuse of power such as to be destructive of our institutions. The line of Martins argument was so phrased as to oe an indirect accusation that destruction had oegun during the late President Roosevelts latter adminij tralions. The G l) P will seek the limitation from two directions. Iwh requiring a constitutional amendment An effort will lie made to persuade congress to submit such an amendment to the states. But since a Democratic congress uiiglr be expecteil to shy away from a Republican proposal of tins kind, an effort also will be made to initiate a < onstitutional amendment among the states. There will b$ some Democratic support for a constitutional lintitirion upon the period a president may serve. But to submit a proposed amendment to the slates a two thirds majority of both house and senate are required. The alternative method of submission is upon the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the states. The Republican national committee is expected to urge state legislatures to take the initiative Seventeen states already have tenure limitations upon their governors. It is argued that if a state sees fit to limit service of its governor it should be agreeable to .!niit the service of a president. New Mexico has an unusual provision that after serving two ' consecutive terms, a governor must wait two terms before seeki in? 'hat office again. Oreg 't. and Delaware limit their governors to two terms. Tennessee has a three urur limit, it is one term j in Alabama. Florida. Georgia. In- . dtana. Kentucky Mississippi. Missouri. New Jersey.
