Brave Men Lesson for October 25, 1959 CHRISTIANS have always had a tradition of courage. But there is a special quality about Christian courage that gives it distinction. Two of the original Apostles, i Peter and John, demonstrated a ' specially Christian variety of bravery when they bearded the SanI hedrin. The experience would have

J

frightened almost any one. The men whom Peter and John faced at their trial were the very same who had “legally” murdered Jesus only a few weeks before this time.

The Sanhedrin Dr. Foreman was a combination of Pope, Supreme Court and Cabinet. They were the supreme authority in the land. They could get people killed. Nobody would think of "bucking” them. Yet Peter and John did exactly that.

There Is One Higher ; One special feature of Christian ; courage is that it is not frightened by high authority. When asked - how he managed to have the nerve : to defy Hitler, Martin Niemoeller i (who had been a naval officer un- ■ der Hitler) said, "It was simple. I * had a higher Fuehrer, a higher ■' Leader.” Christians always know that above every human, earthly authority they have an allegiance to the All-Highest. They may realize that human authorities can I make it very unpleasant for them; but that makes no difference. Take the case of Ambrose, a bishop of Milan nearly seventeen centuries ago. Emperor Theodosius appeared one morning at tha ; bishop’s church, expecting the redcarpet treatment as usual. But not I this time. For Ambrose was at the door and would not let the emperor in. Theodosius as emperor had just been in a war. Ambrose was not a pacifist, but he knew that his royal highness Theodosius had slaughtered over 7,000 people in the city of Thessalonica, — most of whom were non-combatants. That was a war-crime. Bishop Ambrose pointed out. It was like the slaughters of old King David. "And you must do penance as David did,” he said, ‘‘or I will never admit you to my church." The emperor could have killed Ambrose; he had killed many for less; but Ambroses courage conquered him. He actually did public penance, too, and there were no more slaughters of the innocent. Twe Thousand Tumults "I have put down two thousand tumults,” said another Christian preacher, at the close of his life which had been packed with narrow escapes. His name was John Calvin. Starting out as a student and writer, a shy sort of scholar, he had been drafted into becoming a virtual dictator of a city that needed a dictator If one ever did. The city threw him out, but before long they discovered they could not get along without him, and persuaded him to return. He had a different kind of courage, the courage needed by a man in authority, in high position. Against Madness If one kind of Christian courage Is to stand up against higher authority in the name of the Highest, if another kind is to stand against the crowd for what a man knows to be right, there is a third kind of Christian courage which is needed sometimes. It is often a losing kind, at the time, but it is thrilling all the same. A roaring Chinese mob, one day at the beginning of this century, all with murder in their hearts and knives in their hands, surrounded a missionary named Horace Pitkin. “Have you anything to say before we kill you?” they screamed. “Yes,” said he. ‘‘Tell my son to come out to China and take my place.” Now emperors can be persuaded, and crowds can be controlled; but a mob with the taste of blood is simply mad; and with madness there is no argument. So they cut Pitkin to pieces. Yet even this seemingly hopeless courage had its reward. When Horace Pitkin’s son went out to take his father's place, as he did, he found, as one of his first converts, a man who as a boy had watched that missionary die. "From that moment,” this Chinese said, "I wanted to know more about the religion of a man who would not bo afraid.”
