Rak ~ Sund*, Sc hod Iran ELiaiiSjiamM lAetSiSXSJSP** 1 “ ChrTOl'l- - Bssdlsgi Q Cortothiaas •:11-1». w-wrass Reconciliation Lesson for May tt, 1955 'T'HERE are only three possl- * bilities when two persona or groups ar* lined up on opposite sides of a fence. It may be a family quarrel, a national crisis, a split in • church, a community fight . •. Whatever be the cause, whatever the “fence” may ba, there are really only three ways

the two factions can be related to each other. One is the way of hostility. They can cut off an commu-' nication; they can refuse to hear any good of each other; they can harp on past wrongs; they can

open a shooting war. Another way is that of compromise. They can each agree to something neither of them wants, in order to keep th* other one from getting what he does want. One side can yield to the other not because of any friendliness but only because of fear. Reconciliation The trouble with botla these ways is that either one of them leaves the two parties just where they were. Hostilities (cold or hot) harm both sides. Compromise for selfish reasons actually brings the parties no closer together; they will stay together only so long as selfishness dictates, and they will split apart at the next opportunity. There is a better way: the way of reconciliation. Apart from religion, it is doubtful whether true reconciliation ever takes place; for it can be fully done only in the spirit of repentance first of all, and is nourished and strengthened only through the joining of hearts in worship. This, by the way, is why Christian marriages hold together far better than marriages between people of little or no religion. Quarrels occur in most marriages sooner or later, Christian or not. The battle of the sexes is one from which no family is tree. But in a couple without religion, little quarrels grow to big ones, husband and wife either become enemies and go separate ways, or stay together only for the sake of appearances, or the money,— not because of love. Without religion repentance is rare. It is only in the family with a common faith that reconciliation is possible. When the day’s end comes and tt is time for prayers. It Has Worked Reconciliation is not a theory; it is a fact. It has actually worked. The Hebrew Book of Chronicle tells of King Hezekiah’s experience with his neighbors to the north of him. They had been citizens of a seceding group, no doubt inheriting much of the bitterness that always underlies secession at any time or place in history. To their inherited prejudices" against the Kingdom of Judah from which their forefathers had revolted, there was added the sting of poverty and defeat; for the seceding kingdom of Israel had finally gone down in weakness to a final smash-up. The left-behind citizens must have been an embittered lot But King Hezekiah sent invitations to all these people, recently his enemies, to come ' up to the Temple and join in the great Passover festival Men once enemies were drawn together in a cotnmon confession of sin, and in a united worship of their one God In this spirit broken churches have come together again, in this spirit broken homes have been mended, northerners and southernera in the United States have forgotten their grandfathers* quarrels. It was in this spirit that in 1948, coming out of nations that only three short years before had been at violent war, Christian churches around the world came together for the first time in the World Council of Churches, —born of repentance, cradled in worship. Never 100 Per Cent It never works 100%. There were unreconciled Israelites who did not come to the Passover; there are Irishmen today who have never forgotten Cromwell, southerners who cannot forget Sherman, bitterly proud churchmen who refuse to be reconciled with any church but their own. When we attempt reconciliation with others, we may not always succeed. But which is better, to try God’s way— for reconciliation is the way he has shown us—even 1 if we do not always succeed, or not to try at all, and end in a i dark wilderness of bitter isolation? i Gentleness wins what rudeness repels. t Those who love and Uve In the Omnipresent are never separated, g —Penn.

WAy All This Pleading? By Mrs. J. R. Meadows No doubt every minister has had the same thought or experience and asked himself, “Why, oh why, must one continue to urge and beg afad plead so incessantly —day in and day out, asking, begging and pleading with people to attend church services and, above all to support the church. Surely these people know that there is only one thing worth while in this world and that is a faith in their Savior Jesus Christ. SuMy they know and realise that eternity and Christianity are the most serious things of life. Having learned the blessed assurance of an Almighty God that resurrection and eternity awaits those who believe, and though they realize that the tomb we fill with a loved one’s body loses its cruel horror when, we gaze into the empty tomb of the Savior. So again, why will these people not contribute most liberally of their money and spend more of their time about the one thing needful—the one thing everlasting, namely Jesus and His plan of salvation? Attend church next Sunday. THIS WEEK’B BIBLE VERSE "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”—Matthew 6:33. For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage but are like the angels of God in heaven.—Bible. .
