The Christian Line Leeson for Sept 20. 1953 EVERYBODY knows the phrase, *-* “party line,” meaning a kind of ideas, arguments, plans and policies which are approved by a central authority. We bear the phrase moat often in Communist connections: but there are also such things as the Republican line, or the Democratic line, and many others. la there such a thing as the Christian line? In particular, is there a Christian line of behavior, a Christian way of life which- is distinct, an ideal for all Christians everywhere? Or is Christian living a more or less do-as-you-please affair? • ' ... J Christianity Is Respectable The letter to Titus in the New Testament comes right to this point Titus was a __ fairly young mis- I sionary in a very tough area, the is- ■ ’ land of Crete Titus may have wished he were in EL an easier field. , “Liars, evil beasts. t'A. lazy gluttons" — I that was the repu- gjg|y flPrl tation of Cretans. Even wben such Dr - Foreman • people become Christians there Is' a lot they halve to learn. They do not become complete saints overnight (Did you?) Paul, writing to his young former assistant Titus, advises him, as an advisor of new Christians, what line to take In teaching and preaching to these unpromising Cretan converts. Through Titus the Apostle speaks to parents, ministers. Sunday, school teachers, of today. The firpt thing the modern reader notices is that the Christian line sounds “respectable,” like advice from Polonius or Lord Chesterfield. Old men should be temperate. orthodox; old women ought not to gossip; young women’ should love their husbands and children; young men must exercise selfcontrol; -employees (slaves, in Titus’ parish) must be honest and give satisfaction to their employ ers. Citizens must be law-abiding Everybody should have a decent job and save his money for special needs. Really, the’reader may ask, what is so special about al) this? Is the Christian line just to be a “decent citizen?" Well, of course that is a part of it. Christianity is certainly not Disrespectability) , Propriety Without Pride So the Christian line does not go off in some other direction than respectability; but it Is by nc means the same thing. There are two vital paints in which the Christian's way of life is distinctly unique. One is the Christian’s attitude to his own respectable conduct He must never do good in order to show off, neither to man nor to God. He must never be good or do good simply in order tc get good in return. He must never think of his own good deeds as a kind of coin by which he pays bis way into heaven. Years before •‘Titus" was written, when Jesus was telling his diseiples that they must live above the level of the Pharisees, this demand must have surprised and puzzled his listeners. How could anybody on earth be more respectable than a Pharisee? Well, nobody could. What Jesus was pleading for was (in part) just the difference in attitude toward one's own goodness The Pharisee was proud of being good; be thought God owed him something He wanted meritbadges; Jesus called for humility The Christian’s goodness is a response, to God. not a demand on God. It is an expression of wbal we owe to God. • ’ * Mercy and Renewal This brings us to the other point at which the Christian line is on a different plane from ordinary respectability It is the effect of a new birth inside. There is great difference i between lifting ourselves by our own efforts and (being lifted by the Holy Spirit, beI tween goodness home-made \and beaven-maqe. Being respectable enough for a good name tn society - is some distance short of growI Ing Into the likeness of Christ There Is an immense gap between respectability like a topcoat, and the goodness whicl. is in the blood, beating through a changed heart. There to a clear difference be tween the respectability of a man who looks no further ahead than his own obituary, and the deepreaching spiritual renewal of the man who lives as an “belr in hope of eternal life.” The smile is inigbleier than the grin. Adversity is bHt tae turn in the road, not the end of it.

Decatur Radio Hams To Form New Group Vernon Seitz Heads New Organization Most of Decatur’s amateur radio hobbyists—HAM’s—this week planned to form a new group, “Amateur Radio, Inc.,’’ it was learned today. A spokesman for the outfit said members prior to this new move belonged to the Decatur radio club, but decided to become a more formal group, with the articles of incorporation due to be completed | this week. The new group, said’the source, has complied with FCC regulations and can now claim a permanent address. Fire chief Cedric Fisher has donated an upstairs room to the members, where they will build a complete transmitter for their operations. The purpose of the members will be preventative, said the source, both as a means of emergency communication during attack, and as a source of emergency power, should the regular power source shut down. This Would be limited, he pointed out, but the club does have a generator which to at the disposal of any vital operation that temporarily loses its source of elec.trtcity. Elected president of the corporation was Vernpn Seitz. Some of the members named were: Winston and Vernon Seitz, Don Poling, emergency coordinator of the ARRl—amateur radio relay league—Bob Sprague, Dave Langston, Dave Runyon, Doug Gilpin and John Kelly. The source said the new group will work closely with the ARRI and the Indiana network of amateur radio operators, “and continue its program of providing and maintaining lines of communication during times of emergency.” Sunday School Plans Basket Dinner Sunday The Church of God Sunday i school will hold a basket dinner at noon Sunday at the HannaNuttman park. The dinner will %e held at noon, followed by an informal program. Cane Chairs *. F To tighten sagging chair cane, wet the cane, then allow It to dry and shrink.
