In Remembrance Lesson for March SO, 1952 IT IS curious, Important and tragic all at the same time: the very acta which are specially precious to all kinds of Christians have been through the centuries the center of debates and quarrels and splits in churches. The church as a whole cannot even agree on

t what to call these acts, the simple acts we call Baptism .and the Lord’s Supper. Most churches t call them "sacraments,” but as that is not a Bible word, many churches call them “ordi-

nances," though as a matter of fact that word Is not used in connection with Baptism or the Lord’s Supper anywhere in the New Testament. (I Cor. 11:2 is a mistrans- i lation in the King James version; , the Greek word there means sim- I r ply "traditions.”) Oatward Signs Let the reader call these what J he will. If he goes to almost any Christian church he will observe, some time or other, these two simple acts or rites called everywhere Baptism and the Lord's Supper. The way the thing is done varies from church to church; but If one listens carefully, the same Bible words are always used. In Latin, Greek or English or any * other tongue, It is the same in all, churches. They are very almple acts. They „ are the sort of act that is called a "symbol’*—that is, it means very little In itself, but It carries the weight of a great truth and? ; shines with the glory of a great experience. Baptism is a kind of washing; but even immersion, or “trine immersion” where the person is put under the water three times, is not a real bath. Likewise the amount of bread and wine in a communion service would not satisfy a -hungry man. ("If any man is hungry, let him eat at home,” said Saint Paul.) These acts are tokens of something else. * One of the best descriptions of them, and the most famous, is •‘outward signs of inward grace." These sacraments, or ordinances, or just "acts” if you don’t like technical words, are visible things, very simple things too. But when the ehurch thinks of \ them, she thinks beneath die surface. She thinks of the inward grace and the outward sign at the same time. Inward Braaa The Inward grace which the church finds in the sacraments, or ordinances, is not a human grace, such as' (for example) the worshipper’s own humility or love or purity. Such graces are always fallible—they can break down too,, easily — and often feeble. The grace, of which the acts are symbols, is God’s . grace, His loving favor, His profound concern, the overflowing of His Father-heart. The Goipel in Sign Ungaagg A famous theologian once called the sacraments the Gospel in sign language. Now to mystical and emotional Christians they are more than this; but not all Christians are mystics, probably most of them are not. And this much Is true for all Christians, however much more may be discovered: the observance of baptism and th«. Lord’s Supper reminds the won- . shipper of vital Gospel truths. For example, the water of baptism. I could not rightly be replaced by I wine or ofl; for water Is a sign of | cleansing, and reminds us that our 1 sins have soiled us, we need the eleansing power of the Spirit. The | broken bread and the outpoured wine taken in remembrance of our I Lord, bring back to us, even without words, His sacrifice for us. I In these days when the ehurch I is more than ever world-wide, ■ traveling Christian may find himself in a distant land in a ehurch where he does not understand a i single word. Yet if there is a bap> i tism, or if the Lord's Supper la observed, then at once ho knowa ; himself by thaaa aigns to ba at I home.
