A godly nation, 100 per cent, would be one where every citizen kept
God’s commands, where every act of Congress (or of Parliament, of decree of king) would be such as God would fully approve. For the matter of that, a hundred-per cent godly individual is also unheard of.
And yet we can speak of godly men and ungodly ones. So we can speak of more or less godly nations, nations whose trend and direction is toward God or away from him. Is God os Oar Side? We always like to think, especially when we are at war, cold or hot, with other nations, that God is on our side. We like to think that we are God’s people and the other side, the enemy, is not The truth of the business is that no nation is either completely right or completely wrong, no nftion fully carries out God’s will and no nations wholly defy it No nation to the world today is composed entirely of Christians, no nation to the world today is without Christians to it But haytog said all Ahis, we can still say truly that God is on the side of some people and nations more than he Is on others. In the Old Testament we have a gobd example of a nation that made this mistake of supposing God would be for them whatever they did, and they were dreadfully dismayed when they discovered that they could lose wars and generally "eat bitterness." Many Jews thought God had let them down when such things happened; but the proph ets knew better. Azariah, a proph et in .King Asa’s time, put the truth in a nutshell "The Lord is with you while you are with him," he said. Leadership In the Church King Asa’s times, and the times of President Eisenhower and Queen Elizabeth, are not so very far apart after all. What was needed for a godly nation in the days of Asa? The need that the prophet mentions first is “teaching priests." There were plenty of priests who went through the liturgies and made sacrifices, but what the nation needed was teaching priests, religious leaders who could teach the law of God that is to say, priests who could show the people what religion - meant in daily living, in dealings between man and man. So long as religion stays inside the church, so long as religion concerns itself only with the Other World, so long as religion tries to confine itself to what is exclusively spiritual, it will not be Biblical, and it will be powerless to build a godly nation. An officer in a young people’s church group once told the writer: “Our bunch really means business. This year we raised the money to extend the chancel two feet." —and that was all they did! One suspects that there was something missing in the parson's sermons, if those young people got the idea that the business of religion mainly has to do with how long or short the chancel is. God’s law is not a law for Sunday mornings only. But until and unless there are teaching priests who take the lead in showing us how we can apply God’s law—and above all the law of Love—to our life as a nation, we shall be godly only on Sunday mornings, if ever. The most church-going city in the south was for years also the city with the highest murder rate; the place lacked teaching priests. Leadership in the Nation Preachers and churches wQI have an uphill time of it, at the best, even when they do see and work for the God’s wUI to everyday social and political and business life. There Is too much organized and unorganized selfishness abroad to give the God cf Love much chance. So to our time, as to King Asa's long ago, there is need for leaders outside the pulpit. In those days it was the king himself who took the lead. We have no kings to America but we do have leaders, all the way from village mayors up to Congressmen, senators, supreme court justices and . ♦>.*.

The Church Gives Friendship By Mrs. J. R. Meadows Man is a gregarious individual —he craves fellowship. .In the church, man has found a wonderful agency for fulfilling this instinct. The church believes in providing opportunities for the developing of whole-some companionships. Many.warm and last friendships have had their origin in the church. Many have found, right within the church, associates who have added much to the enrich"ment of their lives. The church was made for man. She prepares a table laden with everything God has to offer a hungry and thirsty world. We need the church because of what she has to offer to satisfy the yearning souls and the perplexed minds of men. The fact that Christ instituted the church for man’s need should convince any man of his need of the church.
