THE ' J Mm riii S jMrial fcjSWl Un4on» Bible Material: Isaiah J-S-JS-U: 31: 1-3; Micah 4:1-7; Malachi 2:10; Acta 10:1-35; Hphesiana 2:13—3:21. Devotioaal Beadiag: Isaiah 11:1-9. International Lesson for August S 4, 1958 WHERE can the will of God be most fully done? Where on this earth today can we come closest to finding the kingdom of God? To put it in still another way: where in this world would you find the place most like heaven? Walter Rauschenbusch,
Dr. Foreman
an outstanding | Christian of 50 : years ago, used ; to give the same i answer most of ; us would: the Christian home. | Ask the opposite : question: Among j all the forms and ; institutions of 1 human relation-
ships, where do you get farthest away from the kingdom of heaven ? Where is God’s will most rarely done? Rauschenbusch said: in international relationships. In other words, if a home can sometimes remind us of heaven, international affairs sometimes remind us ot heU. Man's Other Religion Nevertheless, if a Christian is committed to justice, and if he believes that justice is always God’s will and intention, then he will believe in justice in international affairs too—if it can be had. That’s just the trouble. There are more obstacles to justice across national lines than anywhere else tn the world. One of these is that nationalism is, as has been said, “man’s other religion.” Always and everywhere, whatever men’s professed religion might be, the rival altar is always the altar of the State. The State claims absolute sovereignty, demands absolute loyalty; and that one reason is why interaa- _ tional relationships are so hard to make just and fair. For when the interests of two “absolutely right” countries clash, how can justice be found unless they yield to some authority among themselves? Entanglements Does the Bible cast any light cm this dark area of human life? R certainly gives us no blueprints; but it does give us inspired hints. One of these is the warning Isaiah gave his people, about 700 B.CL, against alliances which would do more harm than good. Does this mean we should scrap the United Nations? Not at all. The United Nations is not the kind of thing against which Isaiah warned Israel. That was a tiny nation, and they were constantly tempted to seek security by military pacts with big nations like Egypt. That, said Isaiah, is just selling yourselves into slavery. Egypt never made any pacts except for Egypt’s benefit; and an alliance between Egypt and Israel would be like one between a Mon and a lamb;-it would only serve to feed the lion and it would be the end of the lamb. The United Nations is a quite different thing. Most Americans do not realize the immense good that goes on, under its auspices, in many areas of life — child welfare, health services, education aids to business, and many other ways. Warless World The prophet Micah, looking to the far future, sees a warless world. Not a world in which nations armed to the teeth refrain from attack for fear of retaliation, but a world in which no one will be even studying war any more. Is this possible? It may be, now, no more possible than a world without death. But just because death is inevitable, doctors and health services do not give up their fight against it. Prim ts Peacemakers Most Christians have a kind of hopeless feeling about international affairs. What can we do about it? we ask. One thing we can always remember —that international conflicts begin with bad Impressions that one nation’s citizens make on others. The world today sees Americans everywhere —tourists, business men, soldiers, missionaries. What sort of impression are these people making? What missionaries are trying to do is sometime<canceled out by what some stupid junketing congressman or private soldier on leave does or says. The more people are won by us to Christ, the more likely it is that these unofficial ambassadors of ours over the world will be Christians; and so the greater win our influence be toward peace. ST.

WHAT MAKES A REAL CHURCH? Rev. J. R. Meadows Beautiful is the large church, With stately arch and steeple; Neighborly is the small church, With groups of friendly people. Reverent is the old church, With centuries of grace; And a wooden church or a stone church. Can hold an altar place. And whether it be a rich church, Or a poor church anywhere; Truly it is a good church, If Jesus is attending there.
