At least, they think they want something by the same name, but they do not always know how to get it. Let a book come out with ••Peace” in the title and It may easily become a best seller. Between a heart I and mind at rest ' f and a heart torn V| in two, restless, ’.sEßf dissatisfied, in ® § perpetual turmoil,—who would not choose the aH heart at peace? V But the word Jesus used when Foreman he said to those anxious friends, •‘Let not your heart be troubled,” —at least the word the Greek writer used in reporting Jesus—was much the same as a word the Stoics used, only what Jesus meant was something quite different No Arctic Caln The Stoics had a word "ataraxia" and in it they thought they had the key to happiness.—Or if not that, at least the key that would lock the door against unhappiness. What they meant by it was indifference, just not caring. Os course there is truth in that notion. It is only the sympathetic who can be bothered with other people’s troubles. One way to insure yourself against sorrow in this world is simply never to allow yourself to love, any one. One way not to worry about tomorrow is not to care what happens or whether anything happens. But this is not the kind of peace of heart which Jesus himself had, or wants his .friends to have. The Arctic Ocean is perfectly calm; it is locked in everlasting ice. But the icy heart is not the Christian heart-A swamp is peaceful too; no waves break on its shores. And a human heart can be a swamp as well as an icy lake. But this again is not the heart at peace of which Christ spoke.

Does Faith Bring Pascal So the heart at peace is not the com, indifferent heart; it is not the sldftgish dull SWtehtered heart It is the peace of the flowing river, the peace of the great electric generator which though motionless itself, sends out power to city and countryside. But how to have this? “Let not your heart be troubled, Jesus said: Believe ... We hear a great deal about the power of faith. The pathway of faith is the pathway to peace. Yes; but does faith bring peace? It is easy to misunderstand this. Faith can bring a false and fatal peace, not the real thing. A hunter in the north woods can put faith in his compass, and not worry about being lost. But if his compass is wrong he may lose his life. A patient can trust a surgeon; but if the surgeon is incompetent, the patient’s trust is fatal. Jesus himself used the expression, “Your faith has saved you.” But faith will not save you if it is faith in the wrong thing or the wrong person. Somewhere in the United States there stood a fine bridge for many years, —at least it was perfectly built, out from one side of the river; but the other side had never been built Faith that does not rest on something or some one worth believing In, is like that bridge; it’s worse than no bridge at all, because in the dusk it may tempt people out to their deaths. “Kot What, Bat Whom” “Believe,” said Jesus. But there are some important words after that. Just believing is not enough. Moreover, believing something is still not what Jesus meant. Some people think that the way to a peaceful heart-is to believe a catechism, a set of doctrines. That is not the main thing. “Believe in God,” is the word. He who created all things, he in whom all things exist, holds me in his hand too. The Inflnite God has room in his heart for me. Turning to Ijim in faith is the highway to peace.—But why does Jesus say, “Believe also in me”? Is not belief in God enough? Or the other way around: Is it not enough to believe in Christ? The Christian experience of faith never can separate Christ and the heavenly Father. The best way to express it would be to say we believe in God in Christ To believe in God as if Christ had never lived, is to believe in the dark and terrible Mystery, the awesome Avenger, whom the Gentiles feared. To believe in Christ as if God could be ignored, is to believe in Man, man at his best but still man. The way to peace is the way of faith in the God whose glory we see in the human face of Jesus of NazarethThe Great Secret Os Powpr Bev. James B.

strength. It is not uniformly in-i cidated by its increase in mem- 1 bership, yet a church that has ! power is likely to be steadily' growing in numbers. The powerful church is the one that secured definite results — results spiritual and otherwise in the conversion of souls and in the culture, upbuilding and usefulness of believers. It requires a power that not every church possesses to produce these results.
