| Creamed gO I -— Creamed Comments on th'e Sunday School Lesson, James 3-5 for Sunday, November 2. The Epistlte of James emphasizes works and in 6ur lesson for ioday the author deals with sins which arise from the spoken word. V.l. “My brethren, he not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation." The Revised Version is “Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren , for you know that We who teach shall be judged with greater strictness.” A teacher assumes great responsibility, since those who listen will judge the teacher by his example. V. 2. “For in many things we offend. If a man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body." If a man can not control his tongue he cannot control his conduct. A man is in perfect control of his powers when he never slips or stumbles in his speech. V. 3. "Behold we put bits into the horses’ mouths that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.” A small thing such as a bit may accomplish an important result. One little word fitly spoken may change a' life. A word of encouragement may keep a man from going wrong or cause him to be a greater power for good. By our words are we Christian witnesses. V. 4. "Behold also the ships, which though they be strong and are driven of fierc# winds, yet are they turned about by a very small helm, whither soever the governor listeth.” The estiiiy of our bodies is often determined by our tongue. Like the helm our tongue should be made to help and guide. V. 5. “Even so the tongute is a little member and boa=teth greath things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth." The bit in the bridle is small in companion with the horse and the rudder is Small in conipArison With the ship but fehbugh small they s’erve as commanders. A word may be like a little spark 6f fire that starts a forest blaze. Words of false doctrine or false accusations may quick ly get out of control wnen spoken A negro Methodist church in Arkansas helped organize a white Baptist church there. Richmond, Virginia, has set A clothing collection record in collecting enough for 45,000 war-impover-ished people in twenty-flour hours. Episcopal services on phonograph records are being used in many veterans’ hospitals. In Vienna, American service men contributed over $2,000 toward roofing a Lutheran church. Church of England and Free Church leaders have opened a series of discussions about full intercommunion. Mr. Wu, of China, recently said "Rights — must be tempered by obligations, obligations to respect his fellow man as a human being, who is possessed with dignity and endowed with reason. Rights without obligations is tyranny. Obligations without rights ir servitude.” "Take heed what you hear,” said Jesus. The degree of attention we give determines the degree of impression we receive. Be careful..

and spread like a fire. V. 6. "And the tonguS’ is a fire, a word of inquity; so is the tongue among onr mehibterk, that it defileth our whole body and set’tteHi on fire the course of our nature; and it Li set oh fire of hell.” Surely the tonguh of the Sinner, the worker of iniquity, may be set oh fire of hell, and if we do not take care our own tongues will be set on fire. The world of iniquity is represfehte’d as inflamed by Wicked tohgubs of men; the world being the fuel and the tongue, the fire, Adam Clarke. V. 4. “Yfe adulterers and ridiiltrtes-i Ses, know ye no.t that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world, Is the enemy of God.” lit the Revised VerSon "adulterers and adultresses” is translated "unfaithful creatures.” Such persons are friendly toward that which is out of hormdny With God and displeasing to him. Hte is lined up with the enemies of God and thus becomes an enemy himself. A divided allegiance between man and God is impossible. V. 5. "Bo you think that the scripture saith in vain, the spirit that dwelleth in Us lusteth in vain?" The Revised Verson is "Or do you suppose it is in vain that the scripture faith, ‘he yearns jealously over the Spirit which is made to dwell in us’?” God yearns over us and wants us wholly for himself. V. 6. “But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble." Pride, which is often exhibited without thought of its true character, is repugnant to God. To be recipient of grace, we must feel our need of it. The proud feel self-sufficient. V.7. Submit yourSblves therefore to Grid. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.” Get into condition where God can bestow upon yon the spiritual blessings he desires to give. V.B. “DraW nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to thee. Cleanse your hands ye sinners; purify your hearts, ye double minded.” The Christian life is a reciprocal ap proach of God and man. All motives need to be clean; hence, we need to be purified, a work of divine grace. Vs. 9, 10. “Be afflicted and mourn, , and weep; let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to heaviness. Here is a call to re-I pentance.,, . , | therefore, that your mind dwells on high thoughts, hot chiefly on things of earth. — E. Stanley Jones.
