Supt. 9:30 a m —Sunday School. Read II Kings. ITHE n . InwuMW Uukni ' ScKx« Lw™ EfcEEZCHZIEffiiaSS Bible Materiel: Lamentations. t Oervtivaal itea«ia<: Psalm RO:1-5. Steadfast Love Lesson for August 18, 1959 WHY IS IT (some have asked) that we hear so much about the love of God in the New Testa--nent, but in the Old Testament Ind his love seldom mentioned? The answer is, that it is all through the Old Testament too, occurring not less than 215 timer In the

Hebrew original, ■ that is. For cen- I tunes this fact I was concealed from the English- s speaking reader j by translations ( which turned the | Hebrew word into I "m ercy” o r I “kindness’’ or I other words. It is

now realized that the best way to translate that common word is “steadfast love,” and it is so translated throughout the Revised Standard Version. It means something stronger than simply “love;” it expresses the enduring, persistent, patient and steadfast quality of God’s love to man. Lava Aassg the Rales People ask sometimes. What does the Bible tell us about God that other religions do not ? Are not all religions worshipping the same God by different names ? Os course the one greatest truth about God, which we find in the Bible and nowhere else, is that he is the God and Father of Jesus Christ But long before Jesus was born, the Hebrews knew that God is a God of steadfast love. Other religions did not know this. That God is to be honored, worshipped, obeyed and feared, yes all religions knew that. But only the Hebrews knew the God who is Love. It may be a surprise, but It Is very Mke the whole Bible, that we should run across the same little word (“chesed” in Hebrew), in a very unpromising place, the book of Lamentations. This little “book” (8 pages long) lives up to its name; It is the most mournful book in the BMe. WeQ it saay be; for it was written about the dreadful time after the downfall of Jerusalem, in the cruel hardships of defeat. Yet even here the “steadfast love” of God is felt and praised. Even among the ruins of a once fair city, the inspired poet does not give up his faith in the God of love. ■tv Every Meraiag There is a wonderful thing about the love of God, which all those who know the true God realise, even when they do not understand it That is, his love never grows stale. It is never, so to speak, a habit, it is always a surprise. Just at the moment of deepest discouragement, just at the very brink of fatal temptation, the inner Voice speaks, and joy and strength return again. God’s love is tho most surprising thing in the world. It is, as this poet ot the Lamentations said, new every morning. We do not deserve it, we may give up counting on It—but there it is. AH God’s saints, that is, those who have felt most deeply this divinely persistent and pervasive love, have discovered at some time or other, usually at some crisis, some time of trouble or of grief, that it is net on the sunniest days that God is most likely to make himself known. Be Heavenly QfMMHalher The writer of Lamentations leaves with us a needed warning. It is easy to get a little too enthusiastic about the love of God. Many persons have felt so sure of it—and sure of God —that they felt now they had a license, so to speak, to do whatever they like. They think of God’s love as something so sure and certain, so guaranteed, that nothing they do makes any difference to God. He is no longer a heavenly Father, in their sight, he becomes a heavenly grandfather. He is up there always ready with something specially nice for Ms favorite little ones. But the poet of ths Lamentations knew better than that. In the downfall of Ms beloved city he sees the hand of God, a God who had endured the eareisaneas, disobedience and pride of Ms people till (to uae Isaiah’s word) he was tired of it A father er mother, if they really love a ehßd, wffl diseipßne the cWM when he Meeds it A father who would never punish Ma aon, no matter what does not actualy tore him. M is because of God’s leva, not in «oto ed it, that hs punish » ns.

THE BEAUTY OF SANCTUARY Rev. James R. Meadows “The Lord is in His holy temple.” Beautiful words, indeed! We must rightly understand them, for “The Most High dweUeth not in houses made with hand.” Private or public worship is not an end in itself, but rather a means toward a harmonious life in God’s service. The beauty of the sanctuary would remind us that it is God’s house, a place of fellowship where we receive power and insg ’ration to live a good life. Truly the Lord hears our cry as we meet in our temples in company with all sincere worshipers, many of whom can be with us only in spirit. We experience His divine Presence in Word and sacrament and go forth from the service of worship with renewed faith, hope and love, beti—.r,i,TFig —r~~i 11 1 TiTi —.
