nor can see him. the Bible tells us (I Tim. 6:16). God cannot be photographed nor televised. The disc has never been made that will record bls voice: it will not be heard on any telephone. Then how do people know God? By the eye of faith.
the ear of faith. The Bible suggests that it is God himself who opens men’s eyes to his presence, opens their ears to his voice. • • • God in History- \ IT is so when we speak of “God in history.” The historian can tell us what happened; but why does it happen? The last, the final, the allinclusive Why? is religion's question; and religion’s answer, faith’s answer, is always: God. Take, for exampl*, the well known story of the Exodus, when the Children of Israel got 'out of Egypt where they had been slaves for about as long as the Negroes were slaves in America before 1863. All historians agree (1) that Israelites were in and (2) that they got out. But the history books do not read like the Bible. In the "Cambridge Ancient History” or in any history of the ancient Middle East, you can read account cf the Exodus wjth the miracles left out. Furthermore, the historians never bring God into their tale. / AH they cao tell us is what you could have caught with a moving picture camera or * recording machine. But God cannot be caught- that way. The story of the Exodus, in the Bible, has another slant. The Hebrew folk never said "We escaped” or “It was a Incky break” or ”Moses took us out.” They always said, “God brought us out.” If you had been there when they crossed the Red Sea (the original Hebrew in Exodus does not use the\ expression "Red Sea" in this story, and it may have b£en one of the Bitter Lakes or even an arm of the Mediterranean—it makes no difference). armed with your camera and sound-recording devices, you could have caught the rbaring of the wind and after, long hours of the hurricane you would have seen the water level going back and back till finally solid ground appeared. But when ycur pictures were developed you .would not have seen God. • • • God in Our History IT would nbt.do us much good, indeed. it would only ''make us jeal T ous or bitter, if we thought that God had a hand in the history of Israel, but took no interest in the history pf other peoples. Many centuries after the Exodus, the prophet Amos said that God not only brought the Israelites out of Egypt, but he also brought the Philistines out of Crete (Caphtor) and she Syrians ’out of Kir. < Still later on in the Bible God’s\ hand is said to be leading the great conqueror Cyrus of Persia (Isaiah 45:1-4), even though Cyrus knew nothing cf It. God was there, but the eye of faith was not. God is always there; and sometimes the eye of faith is there to see him. In the history of England two of the most famous events are the defeat of the Spanish Armada, and the retreat from Dunkirk. In each case the English people were to all appearances helpless, just as the Hebrews were helpless at the Red Sea; in both cases, as at the Exodus, . "the weather came to their rescue.” A great wind swept the Spanish navy to destruction; and a great cloud-cover kept the Nazi airforce pent in until the British army had escaped from Dunkirk. The weather, say historians. God, say voices of faith. Are not both \right? Side of the Free IS God on the side of the> little nation? Not always. But taking history as a whole, Christian people have reason to beUeve as the people of the Bibfe did: that God hates oppression and violence, and his "hand is against” nations that live by such means. On this Armistice Sunday it is well to remember that. If our cause is just it is not because we never lost a war. ' Our cause Is jiist if and only if it is the cause ot humin freedom. We have no assurance that God wib stand by us otherwise. \ (CopyrFsbt *ISSI by 'th* Division of Christie n EkucaUan. National Council nf the Churches of Christ in the United Ststes of America.
