Thursday: All-day meeting of hpifg / 'A International UnJorm Sunday School Leeaona ColoMlans lltß-tt. Claim el Christ Lesson for February 14, 1954 I CAN man see God •‘focused"? If we are to see God at all that is the way we must see him. To quote from a wonderful little book, "Your God is Too Small” (by J. G. Phillips; the Macmillan Co., 60 Fifth Ave., New York 11, N. Y.): "There must be more than elusive iparks and flashes of the divine—there must be a flame burning iteadily so that its light can be examined ... It is a fascinating problem for us human beings to conlider how the Eterlal Being—wishing KEM *.o show men his jwn Character so- H :u s ed, his own Thought ex- WJ’ pressed, and his jwn Purpose demmstrated — could M Introduce himself Into the stream of fli human history without disturbing Dr - Foreman ar disrupting it. . . The thing must be done properly —it must not be merely an act put on _for_ man s benefit. If it is to be done at all □od must be man.” * • • The Character of God Now the central Christian belief Is that God has done exactly that; he has been and. is “focused.” brought to the point where he can be clearly seen and known, in a man, in the Man Christ Jesus. One •• fair question would occur to most people just here: Is the belief that Jesus Christ is divine just a belief as other people about him, or did Jesus himself ever make any such claim? The answer is that Jesus did make such a tremendous claim tor himself. Now he never went about saying “I am God.” He never said that so much as once. But what he did say was so clear, and what it implied about his deity was so plain, that his enemies, who did not believe him, naturally eaUed it blasphemy. The 7th and Ith chapters of John are made up •f a sort of running debate or trgument between Jesus and his hostile critics. Three points at vast stand out. One is that Jesus claimed to be in complete harmony with God,—in Dr. Phillips’ words, he focused God’s character. “I always do what is pleasing to him,” he said. • • • The Thought of God Again, Jesus over and over em.phasized that his teachings were not his own, but that he spoke what the Father gave him to speak. His own description of himself (John 8:40) is "a man who has told you the truth which I heard from God.” “I do nothing on my own authority,” he said; “but speak as the Father taught me.” “I declare to the world what I have heard from him.” "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me” (7:16). Now it is not possible for any man to penetrate or understand all the thoughts of God. No human mind is capable of understanding them all. What we need, and all we need, is what God thinks about us. We want to know what he wants us to do. We want to know how he thinks we should live. (The only persons who don’t want to know that are atheists; once you believe in God at all, you can understand how important it is to know what God thinks.) It is this that Jesus meant when he said his teachings were from God. But this involves a tremendously high claim on Jesus’ part. He claimed that his thoughts were identical with God’s thoughts, that his wisdom was God’s wisdom. If he had said outright, “I am God,” could he have claimed any higher authority? — - - The Purpose of God Jesus not only claimed to focus - the—character and the thought of God, but to focus his purpose. This also was better understood later tn than in Jesus’ own lifetime, for the Cross and the Resurrection were a part of God’s purpose. What is the great all-inclusive Purpose of God for Us human beings? Why did Christ come to live and work and teach and die and rise again? Was it simply to "show off” God? Not at all. It was (as one of the great Creeds says “for us men and for our salvation.” Note what Jesus himself said would come to pass when men followed him, or to use his own startling figure of speech, “ate” him like bread, “drank” Jiim like water. “He who believes in me, out of his heart shall flow rivers of living water." “He who follows me will not walk in darkness but will have the light of life.” “The truth will make you free.” “If any one keeps my word, he will never see death.” That the life of God should flow into and Qlumlne all the life of man; this 'U the Purpose of God for us.

Why Co To Church! (By Mrs. James R. Meadows) When we consider what the church is, what it is for, who started it, and under whose direction and control it has carried on its work for nearly two thousand years, the wonder is that everybody does not go to church. Jesus Christ founded it with the declaration that “the gates of hell should not prevail against it.” So it is here to stay. When He visited His Nazareth home, we read that, "as His custom was”, He went to church. (He commands us to go; and makes it a test of obedience, besides coupling it with a promise of 'blessing, wherever there is a congregation even down to two or three. It Is good citizenship to attend and support the church. These very people who, in disobedience to God’s command, forsake the assembling of themselves together, would not live and rear their children in a community where there was no church. Take your children to the church of your choice next Sunday and be there in time for Sunday School.
