“‘“T 1 AcU DEVOTIONAL READINGD ik Cortnthlan* 8:1-9. Christian's Spending Lesson for August 12, 1951 FSNCE upon a time, so they say, a Schotchman opened hi* pocketbook in December, and a« June-bug flew out. That story belongs to the class of stories that sound funny because they are im-

possible, like the Pgul Bunyan stories, or the one about the fly that tell off • marble and broke his back. No man is so stingy that he could go from June to December without opening his pocketbook to spend a single cent. Spend-

ing is something all of us do, all the time. I• * ‘ Is Your Money Yours? «WT’S my money and I can do what • I please with it." That is ths average man’s attitude toward his money. But it’s not the Christian attitude. i < In the first place, Jesus* parable of the talents reminds us that all the conditions, and all the energy, and everything else that makes Naming money possible, are in the long run the gifts of God. "It is he that hath made us and not we ourselves" is Justus true now as it ever was. Oed It Is who gave us Ilfs ta the first place, who has preserved us, and endowed us with whatever gifts and capacities we have. We are not our own, we are bought with a pries, as Paul puts it. However, we earn our living, whether as farmers, business or professional people, if it had not been for the blessings of > God we could have earned nothing at all. Ong bedrock principle of the Old Testament is that the earth is the Lord’s. Put that together with the New Testament principle that the Christian belongs to God, and you have arrived at the great principle of "stewardship." J • • • Profits or Profit? »T»HE earliest Christians of Jeru- * salem pooled all their resources and dealt them out to all, ip proportion to their individual needs. This experiment in sharing the wealth failed;, and one main reason for the failure was that they paid all their attention to consumption and none at all to production. ; No matter how smoothely you distribute the wealth, if some one is not producing, the whole pile will vanish in time. Nevertheless, A those earliest Christian* did have » firm grasp sf a Hal truth: namely, that when a Christian spehds money be ought to have the need* of the community first la mind, and do! his own profits. Doe* this sound too Idealistic? Well, even the law, slanted tnough it may seem toward the protection of wealth, puts limits on the ways g rpan can apsnd his mondy. U it can be shown that what he pays hl* good money for is hurtful to the community, the law will clamp down gn him, in many cases. You can’t k«ep a skunk farm on Broadway. It may be your money, and your skunks, but it’s not your Broadway. To take another angle: down In Atlanta (Georgia) a highly successful industrialist, when he died, left the stock in hls\ company to his employees. They hadVfeelped him earn his fortune, he said; they should share in the proceeds. Does not our community help us earn whatever we do earn? And doesn’t the community deserve consideration in the spending? • * • The Money-God jurO temples on our main streets **are labeled "To the God Mammlon." But money is often a god, all the same. On Mammon’s alter how many things and men are sacrificed! What will men not do to "make a fast buck," to turn a neat profit? Honor, decency, truthfulness, health, even lite itself, will be given up before consenting to cut the profits down. . Every great intrenched evil gantbling, prestitutioD, cerrupt courts, liquor traffic—is a* hard to dislodge a* the silversmiths of Ephesus, and for the same reason: The people who stand to make money out of sin never care what happens to ths sin- A ■ ner*. But let us watch ourselves. Do we smalltimers criticize the paunchy big-shots because we really hate the way they sacrifice everything to greed, or is it because, wo are envious? , IBM hr ths Divistoa sf Christian Educatlan.
