Ideal World Lesson for February 27, 1949 XNY MAN with a revolutionary ■** new idea has to try to explain it. Jesus was no exception. As a young teacher of religion, he had to answer the question which older teach- ’ crs were bound to put to him: If your w ' teaching is new, how can it be true? And if it is true, Bl JUs&f what can be new about it? This was a fair question. The Sermon on the Mount is Jesus’ an- Dr. Foreman swer to it. The main theme of that sermon is the kingdom of God. an avcient phrase but with new meanings as Jesus used it. Wei can say ‘'The Ideal I World” and mean just the same thing. The Right People JESUS EMPHASIZES, above all, | the kind of people who belong to God's Ideal World. This would be surprising to some modern planners. Communists think that if you can once get a world in which every | pr.e has enough to eat and drink and ■ wear, a world where nobody is poor <or everybody is as poor as everybody else, which is all the same thing), you will have the perfect world. Jesus would know this is nonsense. | But the fact is that even after you got your perfect social system, with perfect politics and perfect distribution of wealth, even a perfect climate and soil, you would still be nowhere near the Ideal World unless you improved your people. The wrong kind of people will spoil the best kind of system. So we find Jesus talking not about systems but about people. • • • h This You? WHAT WE call the ''beatitudes" (Matt. 5:7-12) is Jesus' eight point program for the citizens of the Ideal World. The right people are happy people, to begin with. (The word translated “Blessed" is a regular Greek word for "happy.”) Cut the main difference between different kinds of people is not that some want to be happy while others do not: rather it is that they are made happy by different kinds of things. Jesus' ideal people are humble, not proud: they see their sins and are sorry for them; they are "meek”—that is. they are not in a burry to demand their own rights: they do not merely admire goodr.css. they are positively hungry for it. they are merciful, not careless or cruel; they are pure in heart and rot only in speech and act; they are not mere peace-wishers or. peace-lovers (who isn’t?) but peacemakers; they are people who are brave enough to do what is right not only when it is comfortable and popular but even when It brings them slander and suffering. • • « Salt

nO YOU really want an ideal world? The best way Io begin is to learn how to be a citizen of | such a world. Jesus used two interesting simple words to describe tiic kind <rf people he means. You are tall he said. — you are light Salt and Lght are old-fashioned things but they have never gone out cf date. Ko one has invented a good substitute for either one. Sn there I* no substitute for a really good Christian. Living. here and now. tike citizens of the ideal world to come. Christians are both salt and light < Salt because they give a taste to otherwise flat or bitter life. Salt because tlry keep human society fiom going rotten. This world is in a bad enough mess as it is: but what it would be if all the Chris liana were removed from it at once one hates to think. Light js ND LIGHT!
