Religion in Practice Lesson for October 26, 194” C UNDAY’S lesson takes us to one of the practical Christian preachers of the New Testament. Please open your Bible to the Epistle of James, and

read especially the first two chapters. James was a man of great faith, but he realized, as we must realize, that faith is best expressed in works. Then read Matthew 25: 34-46, and for the devotional lesson, read Matthew 7: 15-27. When you shall

Wk Dr. Newton

have read these passages, you will then be ready for the consideration of religion in everyday life. • « • A Cup of Cold Water AXTHAT, someone will be asking, ’ ’ can Ido to show my desire to be of actual service, in the name of Jesus. Jesus tells us. He says that whosoever shali give a cup of cold water in His name is doing the will of God. We live in a world that poignantly waits for a cup of cold water. I have just returned from another trip through Europe. I was there in 1946, and I felt then that life in Europe had reached the last possible expression of need. But this past summer I was startled to witness a still greater need. The question that immediately came to mind as I observed conditions in Germany and England and other countries this past summer was this, What can we do to meet such need? And the answer was ready at hand—give them what you have, in the name of Jesus. » » » Doers of the Word JAMES makes much of practical religion in everyday life. He tells us that we are to be doers of the word and not mere sayers of the word, or hearers of the word. And here he means the Word of God—the will of God. Is there a misunderstood boy in your block? Is there a girl in your class at school who suffers from some bitter criticism? This lesson would suggest to every Christian boy and girl to go in sympathetic understanding to such neighbors and help them to overcome these handicaps. Thus we become doers of the will of God. * • • Living Our Religion WHAT we are determines what people think of our religion, not what we say about our religious life. James tells us in Sunday’s lesson that faith without works is dead. It is that very truth that our generation so much needs to get hold upon. We have many perplexing situations in our world. Racial differences, differences regarding capital and labor, and so forth and so on. How are these problems to be solved? By resolutions? We know that many very pious resolutions have been adopted concerning these problems, but still the problems remain. One Christian in any given community who applies the teaching of James to everyday life will start a train of events that will add up to the solution of any problem, social, economic or what not. We must translate our beliefs into action. • • » The More Excellent Way IAMES goes on to assure us that when we undertake faithfully to live our religion, we may confidently claim the promise of God that if any man lack wisdom, let him ask of God who giveth liberally unto all men, and upbraideth not. The conclusion of the whole matter, therefore, is to face life as we find it, taking into account the aetual facts, and boldly and confidently tackling the job in the assurance that the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ is always sufficient for any and every situation. The more excellent way of the Golden Rule is the answer to the whole matter. But the Golden Rule is impotent until it is translated into action. And the best of it all is that it actually works. When someone asked Morrison what Christianity was doing for China, he replied: “Christianity is changing China into a community of God.” That is pre cisely what this lesson will do for your community, if you apply its teachings to life as you find it. • • * Protegtiatdesoaueatiou.
