’ IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY I chool Lesson By REV. HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. Dean of the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. „ , ® Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for May 22 SERVING THROUGH CHRISTIAN CITIZENSHIP LESSON TEXT—Mark 12:13-17. 28 34. GOLDEN TEXT—Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.—Mark 12:31. PRIMARY TOPIC—A Sermon on a Penny. JUNIOR TOPIC—A Sermon on a Penny. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— Loyalty to God and Country. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— Obligations of Christian Citizenship. ‘'For God and Country” is a rallying cry that well summarizes the spirit and duty of the Christian citizen. So clear and inspiring are the teachings of God’s Word regarding the relationship of the Christian to his country that one marvels that national leaders who are seeking to stimulate civic loyalty do not promote a revival of the study of the Bible. Dr. Moore is right when he says, “No bad citizen is a good Christian and no good Christian is a bad citizen.” The solution of our nation’s problems would be a great evangelistic campaign from coast to coast. A man like Moody would then appear in his true position as a great patriot. The soul-winner would be more important than the vote-getter. Why not try it? Our lesson presents our Lord on Tuesday of His passion week, when He met His adversaries in their cunning efforts to entrap Him in His words so that they might condemn Him. The two incidents before us have broader application than to citizenship alone, but we may well consider them in that light, for they reveal that the citizen who is right with God will be right with the nation and with his own neighbors. I. The Christian Citizen Loves His Country (vv. 13-17). The Pharisees, who hated Rome for its domination of Palestine, and the Herodians, who supported Rome in its control of the land, were enemies, but they joined forces to tempt Christ. They knew that if He said “Yes” to their question the Jews would be angry, and if He said “No” He could be condemned as a traitor to Rome. The trap was set, but it caught only the crafty hunters. Taking their own pocket money he declared that if they used Caesar’s money they ought to pay taxes to Caesar. The coin stood for an orderly ment, benefits of which they enjoyed and which they ought to support. 11. The Christian Citizen Loves God (w. 20-30). Although this point comes second in our lesson it comes first in experience. It is the man who renders unto God the love of the heart, soul, mind, and all of his strength (v. 30) who is ready really to love his country as he should. The scribes loved to dispute about which was the greatest of the 613 commandments which they recognized. Jesus astonished them by referring to the passage of Scripture most familiar to the Jews (Deut. 6:4, 5), which declares the unity and absolute exclusiveness of the Lord our God. It may be well for us to stress this truth even in our time, for most folk regard the worship and service of God as optional. IH. The Christian Citizen Loves His Neighbor (w. 31-34). The scribe did not ask for the second commandment but Jesus presents it as an unavoidable corollary of the first. The man who really loves God will love his neighbor. Every social injustice would be wiped out and every cause for strife removed if all men loved their fel-low-man as they love themselves. Such a condition will never prevail, however, until men love God. It is too much for the fiesh to put others before self. Only the grace of God is sufficient for that. Hence the real solution of the problems of capital and labor, the “haves” and the “have nots” is to win the men and women on both sides of the struggle to a true love for God through Jesus Christ our Lord. In other words, we come again to the inevitable conclusion that what our nation needs is a revival. Social panaceas, revolution either by force or by law, dictatorships, all these are destined w failure. Men must learn to know and love God supremely and thus come to love their neighbors as themselves. The crossroad Sunday - school teacher, the missionary in the city slums, the preacher of the gospel, whether in the great city or on the the countryside, the faithful Christian living out the love of Christ daily in kindly word and deed—these are the real forces for social as well as spiritual good. Let us do all we can to prosper their ministry! Sufficient Unto the Day Do not look forward to what might happen tomorrow; the same everlasting Father who cares for you today will take care of you tomorrow, and every day. Living Wisely Let no one think that the way to gain the next world is to despise this one. Little Courtesies In the stir and hurry of life how careless we are of little courtesies!

JOHN RIPPEY SAYS HE “IS A FAR DIFFERENT MAN” “Got Fine Results From Very First Bottle of Retonga,” He States Among the many expressions of sincere gratitude for benefits received from the celebrated new medicine Retonga, one of the most interesting is that of Mr. John Rippey, 320 East Fourth St., Muncie, who said a few days ago: O : mal II “ JOHN RIPPEY f “I am a far different man than I was before Retonga rid me of my troubles. It sure does the work. Before taking this new medicine I had to be careful what I ate because my food would ferment and bring on a distended bloated condition, and burn like fire clear up into my throat. Gas would press into my chest, cause palpitation, and affect my breathing. I suffered with severe pains in my legs and knees, and always has a tired feeling. I had to take laxatives for years for constipation. “I got splendid results from the very first bottle of Retonga. Now my appetite is good again, and I can eat anything without any trouble with my stomach. The pains are gone from my legs and knees, and that tired out feeling has been changed into one of new energy and strength. I don’t even need laxatives any more. Retonga is the finest health-builder I ever saw.” Start on this famous roots, herbs and barks medicine today. You can obtain Retonga at the Thornburg Drug Co., Syracuse, Indiana—Adv.
