f ‘Gomel’ Lesson for September SO. 1958 'T'HE Bible has away of express- * ing the most profound and farreaching truths In the simplest possible way. “Cornel” is a word of one syllable, and even a chid knows what it means. But as * e find it in the book of Revelation

great deal is tied bA- ‘Ji y e| Dr. Foreman

•nd elsewhere, a g up in It and expressed by it Journey to God This word, as a command, suggests first of all that man is not where he ought to be. He ought to be close to God. 1 Some are not even

turned toward him and are moving farther away every day. But even those whose faces are Godward, •re never as close to him as is possible to be. God is everywhere, in one sense. That i?. one does not have to travel to seme distant shrine, some Holy City, to find God. And yet even among htfrnan brings we often febl how far we are from sitting in the same room with us. And though God is all about us, we are blind to him. Spiritually we are feeding swine In a far country when we ought to be at home with God and in God. There are diseases in which the patient shivers with cold even in hot sunshine. So the diseased soul shivers with cold even in the full flood of God’s radiant love. A patient with mind diseased looks unseeingly into the eyes of loved ones. How near—and yet how terribly far away! In our coldness of heart, our estrangement of mind, we hear—or cal we hear?-*-the Voice say “Cornel” Whs Says “Come”? What voice is this? Two strange words appear: The Spirit and the , Bride. Who are these? Spirit,, is God; the Bride is the Church. The Spirit is the New Testament word for God-close-at-hand, God-in-the-heart, God moving in heart and mind of dedicated men. The voice of the Snirit U the “still small voice" the propfttet“Hfeard. It Is the 1 Spirit of God and the Spirit of Jesus. Would it not be enough for the Spirit to say “Come”? No, because God graciously chooses to speak also with human voices. The. Bride is the Church; and the Church too says “Come.” In all her services of worship and of teaching. In all her proclaiming of the eternal Word, in all her service to mankind, the Church says “Cotne.” A church that does mt, I have the atmosphere of welcome la no true church. A church that puts back bars that our Lord has taken down, a church that says “Come” to a select few and says nothing at all to the masses of men,—this is not true “Bride” of Christ “The doors of this church are as wide open as the gates of heaven,” say some church bulletins. If that is not true, whose fault is it? Is Your Name Here? Jesus once wept over a beloved city: How often I would have gathered you . . . i>ut you would not! Christ can Say, *T would; but you would not."* But such !»»the graciousness of God that no man dare say, “I would; but God would not” The invitation of God has on it so to speak, the name of every man who wants to write his name there. “Whosoever will” includes everybody who wants to be included. There is no sense"’ in saying, "I never have wanted to come to God, therefore the invitation is not to me." It is to you—but only if you will. Here in Revelation it is an invitation; in some other parts of the Word it is a command (e g. "God commands all men everywhere to repent’’ (Acts 17:30). The Choice Is Your Own God can do all things. But he has not done all the things he could Eave done. He could, no doubt, have made men in such away and of such a nature that not one person could ever possibly commit a sin, not one person could turn away a hair’s-breadth from God. But he did not make such men. He could have made men such that if they ever strayed away from God all he would have to say was simply “Come” and they would come back every one. But he did not make men so. God would rather bo loved by men who do not have to love him than by creatures who would love him automatically and could not help it God gave man .the power to accept; but at the same time he gave man the power to refuse. “Let him cornel” God doea much for you; but he will not decide for you God made the road home; he holds the door wide open; he sends the word. "Cornel” but he leaves the coming to you. Evening Services 7:30 Worship Service. Wednesday Evening Prayer Meeting. Omer Merriman leader. 7:30 Youth Fellowship. Mary Speakman President.

The renewed activities of church groups is an Important factor in strengthening the moral and spiritual forces of the' cetjv, insmttyi . tu „ The church as an institution stands for the primary interests in life.
