! OB Creamed Comments on tha Sunday School Lesson. The Grounds of Christian Assurance. I John 3:1924; 4:1-4. for Sunday. August 19. —The Rev. D. Carl Yoder. After the death of the apostles who spoke with authority, there arose so-called Christian teachers who assumed undue authority and injected false teachings into the church. This resulted in a loss ot Christian faith, a toleration of un-Chrlstian conduct To overcome thio fdtaatkiu. John wrote epistles to the churches, presenting the significant tacts regarding Christ, and the promised victory to those who abide in Christ and have his Spirit. V. 19. “And hereby we know that we are ot the truth and shall assure our hearts before hiju." John speaks with positive knowledge; he was the last ot the apostles. Christian faith leaves no place for doubt, and so be says, "we knew.” John includes the other disciples’ testimony in the word “we ” The power of God is revealed in truth which is invincible. V. 20. “For it our heart condemns us, God is greater than our hearts 1 and kneweth all things.” As Christians who have truly repented of our sins, we have faith in God’s forgiveness, for He is all wise and has caaceltedall. our sins. V. 21 “Beloved, if our hearts condemn us not, then have we coflfidenee toward God.” In the word “Beloved” John addresses the racognized children of God. These have fully surrendered their sins forpardon and themselves for serv- 1 lee And haye an experience of con- ' fidence.Here is Christian assur-H ance. " ‘ V. 22. “And whatsoever We ask, J we receive of him. because we ' keep his commandments, and flop those thingy pleasing in his sight.’’!' Assurance of answered prayer; ! marks a true child of God. who firstj ‘ of all keeps the wherein is provided the condition, 1 for answered prayer. V. 23. “And this is his command- , ment, That we should believe on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ! and love one another as he gave us commandment.” Note that commandment is in the singular num-; • her. When the Lord Jesus Christ ; ! possesses a life, then all commandments wHI be voluntarily "kept; «nd among them is love for one another. Christ is the answered to every problem, then and mow, Sheldon'S | book. “Im His Steps” or “What Would Jesus do?” exemplifies this, - .fact. i • • -J V. 24. ' And he that keepeth his, commandments dwelleth in him and he in him. And hereby we know! 1 that he abideth in us, by the Spirit I ! which he hath given us.” One may j be the home of God and God may be I the home of man. Here is the deepest Christian fellowship and holy communion. The Holy Spirit is the One, the third person of the Trinity, who does the introducing, izing. This deep experience inthe enlightening, and the stabil--eludes God. Christ and the Spirit. V. 1. “Beloved, believe mot every ; spirit, but try the spirits whether they be of God. because many false prophets have gone out into the world.” False prophets are the professional Christian teachers that try to make important what to net Christian. All Christians are to be; disoerners of truth. Some doctrines are unduly emphasized: often an, apparent truth does not fit Into the whole harmony et truth; too Pften

the central teachings of Christ are minimised. We are commanded to search the Scriptures. V. 2. “Hereby know ye the Spirit of God; every spirit that confessetb that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh from God:” The incarnation of Jens is the central concept, thus it is that the Holy Spirit reveals Jesus. When one received the Spirit, he will also receive the Christ, the Son of man and the Son of God- The truths of this verse are accentuated in the next verse. V. 4. ”Ye are of God. little children, and have overcome tl|fm; because greater is he that Is in you, than he that is in the world.” The spiritual force let loose from God to greater than the physical forces let Mose by man. That truth may well be applied to today's world aitahtiM.V. 5. ‘They are of the world; therefore, speak they of the world, and the world heareth them not." False prophets fall because what they teach lacks'spiritual appeal V. 6. “We are of God; and he that knoweth God heareth us. Hereby know we the ppirlt of truth and the spirit of error.* Character is known by perceiving whose teachings they accept. —Based on cop-righted outlines produced by the Division ot Christian Education.

CIERICUS SAYSf • I Clericus says: “Chr|stians must I discern that real happiness is | never to be found in the things of 1 this world. Trust in the world constitutes a mistake which jeopardizes the sou.l. Christ is the supreme example of the way fellowship with God. for bis. fellowship with God was perfect." Lesson prayer: We pray for such I discerning minds that we may ‘ detect errors and accejrt the truths. !

Grant that we may be good exponents of eternal truths and J»e clothed with garments of righteousness. ; - » » .

Each one of us needs a release from the weights of doubt, insecurity, prejudice, fears and worry. In addition, each one needs added strength to go onward and upward on the paths of duty and sacrificial love. The church service of public worship furnishes that release and that strength as one enters into the prayer of confession and the silence that follows it creatively Fully important is the lift that comes to the spirit when our offering is a gift of love and a pledge of our

Visser *t Hooft of Geneva, Switzerland, general secretary of the World Council of Churches, has claimed that the ecumenical movement has made concrete gains in many fields in re- I cent years.
