kHE ’ 1 buerrjAlKMMl 'Jnilorm HnKh Sunday School l«Mom Ofacimziirfxi Baektresad Sert>l«r«: Matthew 311317, Hebrew » 1:1 nevetlenat Reading; John 14rt».iC““Son of God Lesson for July 9, 1956 ONE thing the Christian church has believed from the beginning: Jesus is divine. Now the Bible never says that in those words. A more vivid and personal way of expressing it is the Bible way. There he is called Son of God. Theologians have written volumes on top of volumes to explain what it means to call Je- Wr ‘ sus the Son of W God, and some of these volumes are £1 I . pretty hard to un- < derstand. It is im- jSMgfl portant to look B the Bible itself and see what ■ ' * is said there. The Dr - For ’‘ mMn letter to the Hebrews (one of those nineTetters at the end of the New Testament), in the very first sentence, gives Jesus the title of Son; but does not finish the sentence before beginning to explain a little what is meant by this. God Spoakt by a Son The first thing we are told here Is that God, who has been speaking to men for thousands of years in various ways, has at last spoken to us by a Son. Jesus Christ is God's answef to man's questions, he is the answer to man's call for help, he is God calling to us. Men have long wished the sky were not so silent. They wish they could read the inscrutable mind of the most high God. Well, God has \ spoken, he has given us his last and best Word. And this Word is not in the form of a textbook, not in the form of an answer-book for all the riddles of existence. God’s message to man is not a creed, however good it may be. His message is in a Person, a Life. We want to know what God thinks. We wish he would say something. Well, God has said ... and what he says is Jesus Christ. Through Him, the World - _ Theline' that divides ah thing.’ that exist into two different kinds of things, the first and most important line, is not the line divid-

tag spirit from matter. The real dividing-line is that which runs between Creator and Created, or to put it in another way, the line between God and everything else that is. When you take time to think,about it, you can see that only God can be on the creatorside of creation. God alone, of all that exists, is because he is and not because something or somebody else made him be. Every manTmust say to himself, “If it were not for such and such a person, or such and such an event, I would not be here.” But God could not truly say a thing like that. He does not depend on something or some one else for his very existence, as we do. It Is by his good will that we are in the universe at all; it is by his will that the universe is here for us to be in. Now the letter to the Hebrews declares that Christ is God’s active agent in creation. In the simple words of the writer, we read that through the Son, God created the world. No wonder the early church soon saw that this puts Jesus on the God-side of that line dividing Creator from Created. This is. part of what we mean when we say that Jesus Christ is divine. Rif lection and Stamp ’ Another part of what we mean is expressed in those two words “reflection” and "stamp." The old Greeks had a story about a creature called a Gorgon, with snakes for hair, so horrible that the Very sight of her turned the beholder to stone. Only when a brave man thought of going up to her, not looking directly as her but into a mirror, was anyjbne able to enter her presence and live. In quite the opposite way, God is not too hor- - rlble, but too holy, for mere men to gaze at We too need a mirror to reflect the unbearable glory of God; Christ is that reflection. Re is likewise the “stamp” of God’s nature. He is as it were God’s signature, his handwriting, his personal seal “Thirifori.,, Closer Attention” The divinity of Christ, of which these sentences in Hebrew are only a few of the New Testament testimonies, was never thought of, in those clear early days of the Church, as a mere doctrine in a book. It meant and means something intensely practical. If Jesus is really divine, then, we cannot just take him or leave him. If he is God’s Son he is no more optional than God is. Deciding for or against him is the most important decision in life. What he tells and teaches is not “one man’* opinion,” is not even the voice of genius; it is the Voice of God.

The old excuse of being too busy to go to church dogs not hold water these days, because most mem would find time if they would but take time. The church should meet the busy business man half way—- — it easy for him to attend. And on the other hand, the busy ■ man should more than meet the church half way—he should lend i a helping hand.
