Israel. Ulis lesson illustrates the contrast between the love of God as a Father and the waywardness of his children who deserve punWhment. Vs. 1, 2. “When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt ... As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images.” Israel was born In captivity when a few patriarchs who had gone down to live in Egypt were becoming a people. God showed his love for Israel by delivering them out of bondage, guiding them through the wilderness, and giving them the law. In spite of this, they soon forgot God, and after arriving in Canaan, many of them made sacrifices to Canaanite deities, including Baal, the god of vegetation and weather. They were indifferent to warnings of the prophets. Vs. 3, 4. ‘‘l taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms: but they knew not that I healed them - . . I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love: and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I ‘laid meat unto them.” Ephraim was the largest tribe in North Israel and hence the name was used to designate the whole nation. Hb-tKA-ifompares God’s care of Israel nftPilhat of a father teaching a child to fcalk, taking him up in his arms, and healing him in time of illness. The Israelites were apparently hot aware or indifferent to the fact that God was caring for them every step of the way. The prophet again likens God to a farmer who was careful to adjust the yoke of his animals, to rest them or to give them more comfort while eating. , Vs. 5, 6. “He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return . . . And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches and devour them, because of their own counsels.” Hosea’s tone changes as he predicts Israel’s exile and destruction of her cities because they had failed to return -to God. Having delivered them once from captivity to Egypt, God was not going to deliver them again from a captivity which they had brought- oh themselves ’because of their evil tvays. . "Add my People are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt him.” Revetting to sin afid idolatry was not I an occasional diversion, but it had become a habit, a-tendency which became more complete as time went by. Even when called to repentance by the prophets, they would not exalt God, but rather exalted their idols. Vs. 9, 10. “How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? How shall I deliver thee, Israel? How shall I make thee as Admah? How shall I set thee as Zeboim? Mine heart is turned within me, my repentings are kindled together ... I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will net return to destroy Ephraim; for I am God, and not mjn: the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city.”/ This verse expresses the of God as he conup Israel to destruction, He shows His infinite love and mercy, far more than a father would show to a wayward son, aftd can continue to forgive men and seek their return to Him. God did eventually destroy the nation, but the destruction was not final, since God’s justice was not final and there was to be a restoration from captivity. If Israel was conquered only by the Assyrians entering and taking over the city it would mean the end of the nation, but not of the people and their covenant, as it would have meant if Jehovah had entered the city, resulting in full and absolute judg-

Union Tbeotogicel Seminary, New York,, has received grants totaling 9550,000 from two philanthropic foundations to extend its program in psychiatry and religion. Hawaii, the fiftieth state, has a Protestant population of 50,000 to 80,000, about 10 per cent of the total population. The Congregationaliste have the largest membership, with Mormons, Episcopalians, and Methodists ranking next tn that order. Catholics claim 25 per cent of the population. The area is a Buddhist stronghold. Ancient pagan sects are sitll strongly rooted. The next World Institute on Christian Education will be held in or near Belfast, Ireland, in July 1962. The time was announced at the semiannual meeting of the . World Council of Christian Education’s North American com- . njittee. More than 200 Christian I education leaders, from 60 coun--1 tries attended the Ifst world institute at Kobe, Japan, in August, ’ 1958. t ... t The Lutheran Hour has com- - pleted arrangements for what is t probably the only series of Prot- > estant broadcasts ever to be put f on the air by the state radio of > Roman Catholic Spain. The mes- • sages will be in Estonian and will be beamed to eastern Europe, i especially the Baltic area. k — — -j - -• ——— —1 A Bible verse will appear on a I new ten-cent stamp for overseas . airmail te Latin America and the i West Indies. The stamp wHI pte- ' ture the Liberty Bell and its famed inscription, “Proclaim liberty throughput the land to all its inhabitants,” which is taken from Lev. 25:10. This inscription from the Bible was chosen by Isaac Norris, a Quaker who was speaker of the colonial House of Representatives in Pennsylvania when the legislature ordered the bell cast in 1752. It is the inscription which caused the bell to be known as the Liberty Beil rather than the fact that it was rung on July 4, 1776. | Questions gJI : ■ latS^«rfmSl .

What is the relationship between God’s Justice and His memtween God’s justice and His mercy? ment.

The piling of stone on stone builds the great cathedral WL reaching toward the JfcL can tell the heights which matt may attain, either in his exploration and understanding of the universe or in his spiritual development?” The church is the institution founded for the purpose of presenting Christian teachings so that people might attain their fut lest spiritual development.
