Lesson for March 11, 1951 ■ TS IT right or wrong? This is a * fair (question always. But there is another question to go with it. Who is to say whether it Is right or wrong? Who is the av'hori- » / jjg&MUZ ty? “Authority” means more than “orders)” It means the final judge, the 1 1 court of last api peal. Dr. Foreman • Neither You nor the Crowd OOME SAY: Nobody can tell me what to do; I do as I please. There is no authority I am bound to recognize. Such a person has an authority, all the same: himself. For him. “what I want” and “what I like” are the only reasons for anything and all the reasons he wants. Now aside from the fact that such people are a nuisance to gll concerned. and the fact that they can*t even prentend to be Christians, this point of view won’t work. The person who acts as his own authority \ runs into others who take them- • selves as their authority, and the result is the awful mess called artarchy. So all sensible people do recognize some > authority outside themselves. They want approval from outside, from above. but whose approval do they want? Under whose jurisdiction, as lawyers would say, do they live? Some recognize only that vast and vague authority known as “Everybody.” If everybody does it, it must be right. If no- ! body does it, It’s bound to be Well, this is not necessarily so. Fifty million Frenchmen can be wrong, or 150 million Americans for that matter. You can’t take a vote and decide what’s right and what's wrong by a simple count of Ayes .nd Noes. Neither you alone, nor a crowd no matter how big, can be the final Authority on Life. • • Calendar, Code, Conscience M NOTHER proposed authority, be- •* lieve it or not, js the calendar. Some people .will not read a, book or see a Show or\wear a dress or listen to music that isn’t up to the ’ minute. If it’s “dated” it’s dead, unless the date is today. , That is silly, on the facfe of it. But the?e are other more respectable authorities which are still not THE Authority. One of these, is the Law If it’s, legal it's right, sgy some people, and it can't be right unless it’s legal. \, ]. There is something true in this, of course. We should by all means obey the laws, and also see that good laws are made and bad anesi repealed. But law, is not the final ,authority on right and wrong. Lawmakers can make mistakes. What is a good law at one time may be a bad law under other circumstances. ♦ . *; The best laws can never catch tip with the morals of the best people. Still other people take as their authority conscience, meaning their own conscience. This is not quite the same as taking your own wishes or pleasure for your guide. Your \ conscience may lay unwelcome | burdens on you. Brt while every . one should of course follow his conscience, still anybody's conscience can be asleep or mistaken. Some of the worst crimes in history havg been committed by isome of the most conscientious people. v * God’s Last Word \ WHAT, THEN, is the highest authority for the Christian? Nothing and no one less than Jestis Christ himself. As we were thinking a few weeks- ago, the very word “Christ” is a symbol of authority at the highest level. Jn Jesus’ day there were two|i supreme synibols of God: the Law and the" Temple. Jesus not only assumed superiority to the Law, but (as our Lesson reminds us) of the Temple itself, though he was po priest and had no ecclesiastical position whatever. If there is a difference between Christian and non-Chris-tian today, it' Is not that Jesus i is the authority for one and hot for the other; rather it is that the non-Christlan refuses to recognize what is the fact: that for us and for all men, Jesus v Christ is God’s “last word” to mankind. And if some say that the law of love is the supreme authority, is there any real difference between the spirit of Jesus and the law of love? For he is God’s love incarnate. \ (tepr.rrxht l!W» b» the Plviilsn «t CbrUtiao Education. National Council nt the Chur-of Cb.rfet tn the Vnhed stateu of America Released bj U.NU t-eaiuie«> “ \
