Iwt 2 i IntwTtatMXl Urwkvra Wffi, Sunday L**son* God and Nation* Leeeen fee Jun* M, ISM GOD is not an American citizen. He is not even Americanized. He is not and never has been a citizen of any country in th* world. And yet, strange as it seems, all down through history be has been thought of as if be

belonged to co* particular race or nation. A Scotch womin. in the era when France and the United Kingdom were more or less always at war, was reminded by her pastor. that maybe there were

God-fearing French women who were praying for victory for their nation too. "Oh.” said the old lady, "who could understand those Jabbering bodies!” The simple truth is that God is the God of all nations. The Bible is as clear on this as it can be. God Control* Three mistakes are commonly made at this point One is that God is not interested in nations, only in individuals; that He cares a great deal what individuals do, but is quite indifferent to the doings of nations. Th* truth is that God is as much interested and concerned about what men do by the million as what they do one by one. He is as much concerned with acts of Congress as ho is With acts of congressmen; as much concerned with honesty in treaties as with honesty in personal contracts. Another mistake is to think of God as wanting to control the affairs of nations but not being able to do so, almost as if be read the headlines with as much alarm as you and I do. Another mistake, just the opposite, is to think that God controls nations the way a checker-player controls his men. They move when and where be moves them, they have no choice. Now th* truth is that God does control nations, or ela* the Bible is all wrong. He

doe*. Oat dictate all their action*, foe Gdtls never th* author of sin. But when we riad what is going on in the world, we must not read with despair, for God never lets nations out of his control. Sod Jsdg** If God literally dictated and brought to pass every happening in history, then God could be the Judge only of himself. But be does Judge the nations, as he judges individuals, tor what nations do of their own tree will and consent Nations, as nations, can make right choices or they can make wrong ones. It has been often remarked that the mortality rate among nations is 100%. As the Bible sees it the death of a nation is the judgment of God upon it Now the point so often overlooked, indeed the point the average citizen of ancient Israel and Judah conveniently overlooked. is that God Judges all nations alike. He is not like a referee who . call* fouls on one team and never sees a foul if his favorite team makes them He is not like a parent who brings some of th* children up carefully and spoils his favorites. No person can be Just and God cannot be Just if bis Justice is only for some and not tor all We all know What to think of a Judge who “fixes tickets” for his friends who violate traffic regulations. God. the Judge of nations, never fixes anybody’s ticket. Let us put this into plain English in terms of our own American situation: If an act of another nation is "bad,” really bad in the sight of God, then the same kind of act on America’s part is Just exactly as bad, maybe worse if (as we claim) we know God’s will better than anybody.. Or if what our nation does at any time is “good,” really good in God’s eyes, then the same act don* by another nation is good too. and we ought not to resent it Bed Rewards The prophet Zephaniah says what all the other prophets write in their own way. namely that God reward* nations that follow his laws. God does not of course reward nations in heaven, as he doe* people one by one. The reward of a nation is continuing p*sc* «d happiness—end *ometiffies power—on this planet The reward of nations is to become the safe home of men and women who know and love and serve /God. The reward of nations is to be th* living evidence of the Justice of a God who love* Justice To be true to God we must do his will. »

Life’s eeveres teste come sometimes after we declare we will be faithful.
