A PEOPLE FINDING A HOMELAND • LESSON TEXT: Joshua 1:14; 23 141. MEMORY SELECTION: Thou (halt bless the Lord thy Cud for the good land which he hath given thee.—Deuteronomy S:10. God is the Lord of nations as well as of homes, and he is concerned that those who honor him in their homes have opportunity to serve him in their national life. This was true in a special way with Israel, but it is also true of us today. Ready to enter the Promised Land, the people had to part with their great leader, Moses, who was not permitted to enter. The Utnei •comes when even the mightiest of men tall, but life must go on and i new leadership must be found. , I. The Changed Leader (Josh. 1: i .Ml. 1. Workers Die-God's Work Goes On <w. 1.2). God buries his workmen at the end of their day of labor, but God's work goes on. The i>eople had became attached to Moses and had learned to trust his leadership, even though they often murmured. With his death we might have assumed that there would be a letdown, but that was not m God's plan. The Lord works through men. He gives them abilities and uses them far his glory, often in away which astonishes them and others. But let them not become proud, for God has someone to take their place When they are gone. They are not Indispensable 2. The Need Is the Same. So Is the Blessing (vv. 3, 4). The promise given to Moses was still good God's promises are always good. They are the only really stable thing in a trembling universe. The question is. Are we ready io take him at his word? They were to step out by faith The land was promised to them «nly as the sole of their foot should •tread upon it Israel never took out the full promise of verse 4. They -lacked faith. .* God honors those who believe him ’and who move forward by faith to -g>lant the foot of spiritual conquest *ln new territory Some are doing «4t now. Are we? The enemies of God's people were Jnany and mighty, but they were not -able to stand in the way of God s .people when they were moving for--ward for him. Here again. Israel Trailed. They d>d not drive them out, "because they did not take God at Qiis word. The application of that •truth to us is obvious. " IL The Unchanging God (Josh 23: tj-11). ♦ Between our first scripture and selection will be found the Mtilory of the conquest of the land (at st. of the larger part of it), and the division of the territory between Uhe tribes. Years have passed quickly, and the new leader. Joshua, is now an old man, soon to go to his reward. Jl» gathers the elders who repre“aented the people and gave them <ood counsel for the days ahead, | even aa he recalls the blessings of \itoe past. » 1. God Did neip (vv. 1-3). $ Israel had been in many hard battles. They had gone through the trirais of pioneer days in a new and jinfamiliar land. Now they were established and at peace. Pei haps They were recalling their mighty exXploits and their own sacrificial es "forts. • Joshua reminds them that It was «iGod who fought for them (v. 8). ■We seed just such a reminder Ln 7pur land today. », 2. God Will Help (vv. 4,3) Joshua Tied a word of encouragement for Aha days ahead. There was much yet to be done. The land had not peen fully taken He reminded them •of God’s help in the past, so that -<hey AouM depend on it in th* fujture. It is one mark zi a great man psal he looks beyond the end of his own existence snd plans for ths "future. What about the future? Joshua them that every blessing JHhey had received, every victory "they bad won. everything had come ‘'from the hand of God. There and There alone was their hope for the future. And it was enough! • 3. Help Yourself (vv. B-li). To ►keep true in the land where their ♦neighbors engaged in idol worship ••nd aH manner of immorality requlred definite action on the part of TlsraeL e- They were not to devlat* in the •Hah test from God away, "to the .right hand or to the left'* <v. •>, *»or a little beginning to the wrong winds up in awful departure from hhn. They were not even to swear by rth* heathen go*, not *ven to menAion them. Thy were to "cleav* .«4o the Lord, a graphic pidetnteUon . of the clot* relation bMw*en God and his people.

He said the Rulhenlanx. whose lands recently were transferred from Cxecboalovakla to the Soviet ; Union, face either "schism or martyrdom, and martyrdom means arrest and deportation of Asia, prison, forced labor and death" Cardinal Tisserant said comniunlst agents were urging all Catholics In Ruthenlan and the Ukraine to join the Moscow Orthodox < hur< h and that priests In those areas were being denounced as "enemies of the |>eop|p" with . "all the terrible consequences such a designation carries" Cardinal Tisseranf's scathing attack on Russian policies In eastern Europe went far beyond a similar charge made by Pope Puis XII in Ills recent encyclical oil conditions in Rulhenla. Earlier today, the Pontiff granted a private audience to Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York on the eve of the American Prelate's departure for home via Spain. , Informed sources attached utmost Importance to the audience, presumably a farewell one. because of Spellman's scheduled stopoff in Madrid Saturday to attend a Spanish government dinner.
