Truth Is Alive I Lesson for February IT, 1957 I_IOW do you explain advanced ‘ **mathematics to children who ! don't know what 2x2 means? Jesus had an equally hard time trying to explain what he meant by the Kingdom of God. (By the way, comparison of passages will show that Kingdom of “God’’ and of “heaven’* mean Just the same thing.) OS3E7*WMI| nearly everything he said A about it has been persistent- I'ijßß -■ ly misunderstood by some- f M body or other. L Harder than explained a totally AL new idea is transforming an ® r - Foreman old one, and Jesus had this more ■ difficult task; for many of his contemporaries, both friends and enemies, thought they knew what "Kingdom of God” meant, already, and they did not want to be told. | A Definition We can venture a definition of the Kingdom of God to which most persons will agree: The state of things in whiph God’s will is wholly done by all men in all things. Many persons will agree to that definition; but it leaves several questions unanswered. One of these questions is dealt with in the parables chosen for this week’s study. It is this: How does the Kingdom grow, or spread, or come? This is an especially important question if we understand that it is a part of God's plan to use his servants —meaning and including ourselves too—to help bring the Kingdom to pass, to bring it out of the world of hope into the world of fact and experience. Most churches sing the hymn: "Rise up, 0 men of God!” They do not sing the parody on It which begins, “Sit down, O men of God, you cannot do a thing!” Not by Force | | But suppose we do rise up to; ; work for the Kingdom, what shall' ‘ ■t 5 ’ Good men have long asked themselves that question . . . and sometimes given wrong answers. Some have thought that the reign of God could be forced on men. So we have had the Crusaders, the Inquisition, the New England “theocracies". Calvin in Geneva and Cromwell in England—all working on the same theory: You can force people to do God’s will. This earth can become like heaven if your police force is good enough. Not by Machines But that never has worked. It ‘can't work, because the Kingdom of God is not that sort of thing. So, other good but mistaken men have supposed that the way the Kingdom spreads abroad is by a copying system of some kind, let us say by a vast mimeographing machine. Some particular person, or period, or institution, is taken as the absolute pattern, and people are encouraged to imitate it to the last detail For example: the early Christian church, as described in the book of Acts, is taken by some people as the picture of the ideal church, and all churches (it is said) should be as nearly exact copies of it as is possible. Or the social and pollt-. ical organization set forth in the laws of Moses are taken to describe the ideal state, and we today should imitate that if we want tb get the perfect society. Or some ancient saint is taken as the exact model of every one who wants to be a good person. But these notions are all off center. No world and no institution and no age or system in the past was perfect even for that day; and when you take something that was imperfect yesterday ahd try to make it fit today, the result is more imperfect then ever. <* The Kingdom Is a Living Thing Jesus’ parables show how the Kingdom of God really spreads and grows. He called it once a , kingdom of truth; and truth is a ' Living thing. Truth cannot be forced upon people. Mere copying of truth is mechanical and may even be meaningless. Truth grows the way a plant does, the way yeast does in dough; silently, steadily, by |he sheer power of the life that 1 i is in it But since the Kingdom of God is made up of people, since the truth of Christ is not one to be read about but one to be lived out, the Kingdom of God, the world I of his heart's desire, comes. into ’ being by the personal touch of Ufa on life. Truth spreads from pole i to pole only as it spreads from ' soul to soul (Bases en eaUlaee eesrrichleS ky the Dlvlelen et CklrsUan ESucatlea, National Connell at the Charebes of Chrtat In the U. 8 A.

— .m.j of ALONE WITH GOD Rev. J. R. Meadows It is good to alone with God. In quiet of our little private corner let us listen often to His voice as He speaks through His word. There are so many distractions around us, so much to occupy our attention and turn it away from God. Many are so busy that they haven't time to be with God. These folks, I believe, are busier than God intended them to be. I love to think of the converted Saul in that home in Damascus, of whom the Lord spoke to Ananias, “For behold he prayeth.” All those who have accomplished truly heroic deeds in the cause of God have been mighty through prayer. During this year let us resolve to spend more time apart with God in prayer.
