A SERinon Rev. Robert H. Harper Tbo Pritt of Ptoct ond o Worlou World. Lotto* for Docrmbor 20: hooh 2: 2-4. 9: 2, 5-7. Luko 2- 8-14. Goldo* Toxt: Isaiab 9: 6. On this last Sunday before Christman Day. we consider some passages from Isaiah and one from Luke. So confident is the great . Isaiah about the events of which he writes that in some place he uses the present tense as if the events were actually happening. But in the first passage, he write that it “shall come to pass in the latter days'" that the Lord s houi< ahull be established But in th following passages he writes o: present fulfillment. Then, in the last passage, he again uses the fu ture and writes of the increase of Christ’s government that shall have no end We pote that he writes first of the establishment of the church which, because of the exalted place escribed to it. will overtop all the institutions of men and be the mightiest power for good in their affairs. And the influence of the church will be so great that it will bring world peace. Let us, in this time of wars and rumors of wars, strengthen the church as the tnatitution through which we hope to outlaw war and bring peace to the world. In Luke we read of the Messed foQfillment of prophesy in the com tog of Jeeus. which was announced by the angel to the shepherds who watched their flocks by night. And the angel was Joined by a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying. “Glory be to God in the highest, and on earth peace.** In Christ we have the hope of a war less world.

This is very important, and all of , the Sunday' School is urged to be present. Plan to attend Candle Light service, Christmas Eve, from 11 to 13- — Meditation — Before we become engulfed in the busy days of Christmas preparation, pleasant and needful though it be. it is well for us to see the Saviour at the door of our hearts, our homes and churches, yes, even of the closed lands. Let us not wait until Christmas morn, but welcome Him all this season to hallow all we do. Though for many this joy has been silenced by the ruthless rule of Communism. let's remember the masses in our prayers. Our Christmas joys will be greater if we share our prayers with them. The Saviour and Gueet stands laden with gifts of salvation, forgiveness, peace and joy for all who will open the door. Tidings of joy are always welcome. but those brought by the angels on the hills of Bethlehem are the best of all. We thank God for the tidings of great joy for all people, "For unto you Is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord."

1 God chose men to spread these tidings unto the uttermost part of the world, man who were willing to leave everything in order to - see Christ. "The shepherds said one to another, let us now go even unto Bbthlehem and see this thing that has come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us. And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen.’’ Their entire lives were changed. The result was that God was glorified. To them it was a foretaste of heaven, the Glory that Excelleth. Calvary Evangelical United Brethren Church K E. Foulke, pastor. Church School at 9:45 A. M. Chas. Garner, Superintendent.
