Teen-Age Faith Lessen far June U, 1953 WE do not expect teen-agers io have the same outlook on life, or the same kind of clothes, or looks, or digestion, or habits, or occupations, as their grandmothers. Why should we expect them to have the same kind oi

religion? This is not saying that young people should have one religion and old people another. It is saying rather that the way a teenager thinks and acts is enough different from the way his

elders think and act, so that we might reasonably expect that he will take the same religion with a different slant Not all grown-up Christians are made in the same mold; and certainly it is a mistake to try to force the religious expression and ideas and beliefs of growing boys and girls into the precise pattern of Grandma, let alone St Paul. Teen-agers Make TeR-noteh Christians Most people who are converted are converted to their teens. Most young people who have been brought up to Christian homes and have since childhood never thought of themselves as anything else but Christiana Join the church (or are confirmed) during their teens. Most ministers first felt the call to the ministry before .they were 20 years old. Most missionaries first thought of being missionaries during their teens. The fact is, the teens are just the time when religious reception is good. Just as there are days when radio reception is good and other days when it is bad, so it is with what we can call religious reception; there ar* times to life when it 1* better than at other time*. As the teen-age is the waktog-ap time all along the line, so it shotlid not be surprising that the heart of boys-and girls, tost at tiw-tim* • when tW begin not, to be bqfrf and girls any moriC but men and women, should be specially open to the vision and the voice of God. Teen-agers can make topnotch Christians. Bat They Need Help We have a case to point in the story of the young king Josiah. He was eight years old when he cam* to the throne. His father, King Amon, had been a bad man and a bad king, so bad that his own servants had a palace revolution and killed him. There must have been something promising about little Josiah, because we read that the people of the land “made him king,"—as we would say, elected him. This was remarkable, because to the ancient Near East it was Just as it is in some of our neighboring countries today: if a king or a president is assassinated, one of the plotters is generally the next king. But the people picked opt little Josiah and made him king. Boy-like, he did nothing particularly worth men- - tiontog for eight years. Then, when he was 16 years old. he “began to seek after the God of David.” Now whenever a.boy with worthless parents turns out to be a fine character with a sincere faith, it is safe to guess that some one has been there tofluehctog the boy for good. Boys and girls seldom develop into mature Christians without help. Later we read that Josiah was acquainted with the best and most God-fearing men of his time, and we can be reasonably sure that this young king's wise and steady leadership, his growth to faith, his constructive reforms, were “sparked” by some of these priests and prophets who were his close frienda ' Teen-agers Ara the Church of Toaorrcv Whenever a boy or girl who has bdta confirmed or “Joined the church," stops going to church and perhaps slips down from good to bad and from bad to worse, thoughtful persons win ask, “who’s to blame?” The fault may very well be to the church, not to the young people. Boys and girls need wise help tram older Christiana Young people coming into the church are always "commended to the fellowship” of the church or words to that effect But how much fellowship do they get? Ab officer to a church once complained that his church paid too much attention to young people. "Young folks don’t contribute." he said. Not to money, of course! But don’t tee»agers contribute anythin*? Totalitarian and dictatorship come to the front when democracy becomes weak. True penitence does not come because of fear but because of the Wto at Gad. T ..

The Optimism Os Faith By Mrs. J. R. Meadows God’s eternal plans can not be frustrated by man’s rebellion. Through His righteous Servant, the Lord Jesus -Christ God has purposed not only to win unto Himself a redeemed race but He will also bring forth “new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.” Justice and truth shall eventually triumph over injustice and falsehood. Christ shall reign "till He hath put all His enemies under His feet.” Let God’s people therefore take heart. We who put our trust in Christ and who seek to glorify Him in our lives are not on a losing side. Though the forces of evil may seem to wax stronger and the enemies of Christ are becoming more and more defiant, the final issue has already been determined. Against the Kingdom of Christ, the gates of hell shall not prevail. If there was ever a time when we should be regular attendants in church services that time is now if we want to save our nation from more suffering. Let us be in church next Sunday.
