i 7 I lni«HMt*OG4l Unitor* Background Scrtptkrei Roman* 8 Dotation*) Readingi Ptalm 27:1-11 In All Things, God Lesson for December 9. 1958 THERE Is far too much In the famous eighth chapter of Romans to think about in the small space of one column So one sentence from it will be quite enough food for thought: “We know that In everything God works for good with those who love him” (Rom 8:28.1 Readers familiar with the old King James translation (ma'de in 1611) will notice that the new translation is difterent The old version read: ' *1 "We know that all things work to- |?wgP*-’ isl gether for good to ,v « them that love God" Which fa translation is ® right? The letter Dr. Foreman to the Rom an s was written ta Greek, of course We do not have the original letter, but we have discovered some Greek copies of it in manuscripts much earlier than any that were known back in 1611 The oldest and best of these have exactly what the Revised Standard Version accurately translates: Not things but God is the subject of the sentence—it is God who works for good in everything, it is not things that work for good “In Everything, God ~ Christians who take the Bible seriously do not believe in a faraway God It is quite true, as ths Psalm writer sai'd, there is no getting away from God The wildest dream of the most fanciful spacefiction writer might come true, but on the last lost planet God would still be there. God is in all space and In all time, too. However old the universe may be, God is older still But the God revealed in the Bible is not one who set the uni- ’ verse going as a man winds a watch and then lets it run God is in all things, and all things are In God. This is not so hard to believe. What does call for a rugged faith is the Bible belief that God ls’& things we find painful and bad, tfot in good things alone. If we do not believe tfffii. then We ate alwayshaunted by the fear—What if tbs evil In the world Is too much tor God? What if eventually he is overwhelmed by a universe he cannot control? What if God's intentions are better than his abilities? Have no fear, God’s Word assures us. God is not on vacation, he is at work in everything, small and great, in pain and in delight. “God Works lor Good” The Bible writers never say that all things are good. Some things are good. Some things are bad. some things are just the opposite of what they ought to be. This raises a most difficult problem, the problem of evil. No one knows the answer to it; but the Bible never takes the short-cut of denying that evil exists. What the Bible does say is that even in evil things God is at work for good Joseph, son of Jacob, as a boy was sold into Egypt as a slave by his criminal brothers That was not a good thing. Years later, however, the man Joseph said to his brothers, “You meant It for evil but God meant it for good." If it had not been for that wicked act (and some others besides) the family of Jacob would have perished of starvation. History is full of illustrations of . the ways in which God brings good out of evil Tyranny and cruelty are not good things; yet if George 111 ‘had been a more enlightened and just king, the American colonists might' never have thought of achieving freedom The "World Wars" were terrible things: but they did rid the world of some tyrannies Many events in our per- ,; : sonal lives which were frustrating ! or tragic, have been seen In la ter' • years to have been part of God’s wise plan After all. what kind of God would our God be. if he cpuld . not bring good out of evil? “With Those Who Love Him” The new and better translation P of this great sentence from St Paul brings out a not be r . point which Path’s Greek suggests: God is at work with those who love him. He works for them, to be sure, but that Is not the main point here. God’s work is never a substitute tor the work of those who love him. Loving God Is no excuse tor not serving him. Loving God is not mere sentiment, a sort of warm glow, a happy feeling about the “man upstairs." Love of God, like love of neighbor, is a serious thing. It calls tor devotion, hard work; * even sacrifice. To go back to the story of Joseph, God brought good out of evil; but suppose Joseph himself had been lazy, selfish and careless? God’s work calls for many partners — not sidewalk superintendents. not slaves, but partners in the everlasting Love (Bases on outlines copyrighted by the Division sf Christian Education, National Council of the Churches of Christ In the U. 8.
