Regular family worship which provides a spiritual togetherness. 2. Regular church attendance. 3. Be sure the home is truly happy with frequent expressions of appreciation of each other, evidences of affection, and true enjoyment of each other. 4. Parents should settle their differences away from their children. 5. Do as many things together as possible in hobbies, sports, music, tl?e reading of books, and home responsibilities. 6. Practice patience, be slow to anger, and do nothing that I could be interpreted as being unfair. 7. Strict obedience is essential, but children must understand the reasons for commands and decisions concerning them. 8. Nurture the children through example, worship and service. 9. If the home is truly Christian and - Christ-centered, there should be no unsolvable problems if parents remember that no two children are alike and must be treated as individuals. CLERICUS SAYS CLERICUS SAYS: Men persist in thinking they can serve both God and mammon and gain the benefits of both. History is not ruled by majorities but by men of power and dedication, whether for good or evil. Our personal and national welfare depends on our consistent loyalty to the right and real love for God and obedience to His commands. A nation decays and starts to crumble when the termites of spiritual indifference move in. The most terrible thing that can happen to any nation is to have its conscience die. Our m w Michael Pupin once said: “Extraordinary men can do extraordinary things, but the course of a nation's destiny will always be guided not by the transient efforts of one or even of several extraordinary men of a given period, but by the persistent power of the nation's traditions.” ■ ' ’ .

People have *tbo often indicated that-they consider Christianity a sort of miracle drug which would make life easy without suffering, disappointment, disillusionment or difficulty. The purpose -of Christianity is not to avoid difficulty, but to strengthen our cbaoacter so that we are adequate to meet life’s problems, crises and anxieties when they occur. Christianity does not make life easy; rather. It gives us' the courage and strength to make us great eno«|p for- lifeChristianity does not provide for us an escape from life’s burdens, but strength for meeting, them when they come. The church provides us with a pfgce wltere we may gain those qualities which strengthen pur character and nurture our soul life. Why not accept the invitation and come to .church next Sunday? CREAMED COMMENTS ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON, AMOS WARNS AGAINST FALSE SECURITY, Amos 6:1-8, for Sunday, July 17. This lesson gives a realisic picture of the self-satisfied, luxuryloving people of Amos’ time whom he condemns and prophesies what their fate will be. Spiritual apathy had become a national policy. Their material prosperity led them to have a false security. The lesson should reveal that true security comes only from reliance on God rather than trust in material possessions. V.l. "Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!” Zion, actually the hill on which the temple at Jerusalem stood, stands for Jerusalem, the capital of Judah. Samaria, capital of the northern kingdom, situated on a prominent mountain, was so strongly fortified as tube considered impregnable. The leaders of the people had the leisure that comes with power, and the arrogance and blindness that come from power selfishly used. Because they were prosperous and strong, they had become spiritually lazy and unconcerned about serious things. The "men named chief of the nations” was Amos’ ironic description of the Israelite leaders who considered themselves so superior and ruled with an iron hand. V. 2. “Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great: then go down to ( Gath of the? Philistines: be they better than these kingdomes? or their border greater than your border?” Calneh and Hamath were important cities of Syria and Gath was the famous stronghold of the Philistines. These cities had thought they were secure, but had suffered disaster ‘or destruction and had seen judgment overwhelm them when they sought to escape it as did the Israelites. * V. 3. “Ye that put far away the evil cause the seat of violence to come near;” The selfconfident leaders of Israel thought the day of reckoning was far off and they did not need to concern themselves about it. They enthroned violence where justice should have reigned. The Israelites liked to think that because of their convenient relationship with God, they would escape judgment and condemnation. , V. 4. “That lie ujfon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their ™ u f. hes ’ a ? d eat the lambs out f the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;” Amos describes in detail the lives of those who only thought of their own pleasure with no concern for the welfare of others and for social inl S Aw e ' Were made o£ wood wirL d ‘ V^ ry - fatter “fres were ordinarily used for religious festivals, but the leaders made their use an every day affair. Slaying of the lambs seemed

shameful extravagance to frugal shepherds. V. 5. “That chant to the sound of the viol, and invent to themselves instruments of muslck like David;” David had written songs and assembled musical instruments for the service of the sanctuary. The Israelites had written songs for idle use. “That chant” means to sing idle songs, which they did while having a frivolous time at their banquets. The viol was a harp. V. 6. "That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.” The bowls referred to were meant for sacred use and not for sacrilegious feasts. The size of them indicated the extent of their drungenness. The chief ointments were used in worship services and were not supposed to be used otherwise. Amos thought the leaders should not be making merry, but should be grieved pver the moral decadence of Israel and its' physical ruin which he predicted would take place. j V.7. “Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched theselves shall be removed.’” Amos predicts mockingly that those leaders who considered themselves of first Importance would retain that distinction in being the first to go into exile. The removal of those who loved to sprawl idly ot their couches would eliminate the sumptuous feasts. V.B. “The Lord God hath sworn by’himself, said the Lord God of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob ,and hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is years after Amos prophesied, the Assyrians beseiged Sama I ria and in 721 B.C. captured it. They took many Israelites into exile and made the Northern Kingdom an Assyrian province. —Based on copyrighted outlines produced by the Division of Christian Education, National Council of the Churches of Christ in the U.S.A. ,and used by permission.
