The Shouters Lesson for April 14, 1957

IT WAS an exciting week in Jerusalem. There was shouting on Sunday; there was shouting on Friday; all about the same Visitor, one Jesus of Nazareth. Only the shouting was different. On Sunday he rode in to the city preceded by , a guard of honor, disorderly to'br* sure, but wildly enthusiastic. They j

Dr. Fore mao

called him King (“Son of David"); they said with loud voices that he came in the name of the Lord; the Hosannas must have been heard for miles. Friday morning the Visitor was mostly

out of sight. The Roman police had • him, and they did not disgorge* prisoners easily. The crowd milled J about in the streets outside the ' governor’s castle, and they kept ■ yelling "Crucify him!” Nothing can be more thrilling than to hailed as King; nothing can be more dreadful than the sound of a mob hungry tor torture. The Same Voices Now the grange thing is that some of the same people who were : shouting "Hosanna!” on Sunday, were shouting "Crucify him!" on Friday. Didn’t they know their own minds? Well, they didn't. Shouters seldom do. There are always shouters about, they emerge from every crack when anything exciting goes on. They shout in crowds; solo shouters are rare. If you had taken many (maybe most) < members of that Sunday crowd aside and asked each one in private: "Do you really think this Jesus is a King?” it is a fair guess that some of them would have re- i pHed, "We 11... I don’t know, of i course. But he might be. Good idea to get on the band-wagon. I hear...” and so forth. Further, ( if you had been able to get private interviews the bloody-sound-., ing shouters on Friday morning, ‘ and asked,“do you really think that this Jesus is guilty—and If he is, of what, exactly? Do you personally want to see him crucified by the Romans?” You might have got some answers like—" Was I saying 'crucify'? Well, that’s a little strong. Os course I hate to see anybody in Roman hands. No, I don’t know the man personally, but I was t01d...” and so forth. I have heard—l was told—They say ... Your shouter has no mind, all he has is a voice. We Should Know It is not such a dark mystery why the same people could yell Hosanna! and Crucify! about the same person within a week. Remember what was lined up against Jesus—intrenched interests, selfishness, indifference, pride, hatred, greed, prejudice. For him there was only truth, and truth has short shrift when the shouters are going strong. We may be shouters our-, selves. How is it that on Sunday” We can sing the most devoted songs about Jesus, we can even offer prayers in His name, and then'on Monday (not waiting till Friday) our actions, which speak louder than our words always, "crucify the Son of God afretfi"? we sing come from poems which better Christians wrote; we just sing along with others, we don’t think much about what the words mean. Then on Monday we fall into the ways of the world. We don’t connect what we are doing (which Can be pretty devilish and still legal) with what we said on Sunday; and we don’t (maybe) intentionally mean anything against Jesus. But we do and what "everybody" does and says, and don’t stop to think (it’s too much trouble for a shouter to think) that what we are doing, or failing to do, says louder than words—" Jesus? Who’s he? Nobody that makes any difference with me, nobody I'd care to be like!” If They Had Known Him There were some who shouted on Sunday who were silent on Friday. The Eleven forsook Him and fled, we know; but we may be sure they did not yell "Crucify Him!” and perhaps the Mother Mary took no voice in the shouting any time. The star of her love shone steadily through the storm. Those who really know Jesus, not by hearsay, rumor or tradition* but know him as a living inner Friend, and Savior, do not change their minds about Him overnight. And sometimes those who love Him most deeply are not to be found among the Shouters, but among those who iferve. (Bawd an eatllnee eapy righted by th* Dlvlelen at Christian EdaeaUon. Mariana!
