CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR.
Topic For the. Week beginning July
1-Commeut by Rev =, II, Doyle.


ToPIc.-When is nation safe9-Deut. XVI.
Ill. a patriotic seryice.1
The topical reference is found among
the statutes and judgments which
through Moses God gave to Israel to
observe to do when they should come
into the land which he should give
them. The immediate reference is to
the presentation of the first fruits, but
in broader sense we can apply the
passage to the national life of Israel in
it's relation to God, and can learn from
a study of this reference some of the
vital and essential elements of a safe
nation.
/. A nation to be safe must believe
In God as the true source of national
life and prosperity. National faith is
as essential to national safety as in
dividual faith. The Jews fervently be
lieved il. God as nation, and they also
believed that God gave them the land
which was their national home The
Ii ton that does not believe in God
VII not fear and serve God. Our faith.
as nation, in God should be specially
strong. We cannot doubt that He has
given this land and all its blessings to
us ans more than Israel could doubt
that Canaan was the gift of God.
2. a nation. to be safe, must acknowl-
edge God as the author and preserver
of national life and blessings We
must not only believe, but acknowl-
edge, our faith to the world. In pre-
senting the first fruits the worshiper
was to say, Il profess this day unto
the Lord thy God that am come unto
the country which the Lord sware unto
our fathers for to give u.s." So we
should profess our national faith in
God to all the nations of the world.
BY word and deed the nations should
be made TO know in whom we believe
a public acknowledgment of faith is a
constant safeguard against apostasy.
A professed faith is not so easily bro
ken as an unacknowledged faith.
3. A nation. 10 be safe, must live for
God. 1t must consecrate its first and
best fruits to Him who is the ruler of
nations and kingdoms. 1t must not
only believe in God as the King of
Kings and confess its faith. but must
also practice it. God has a destiny for
every nation as for every individual.
1t should be the aim of every nation to
discover its divine destiny and then to
zealously carry the will of God into
effect. In carrying out such n princi-
pie every nation must stand for those
principles which are pleasing to God
for righteousness. justice, charity and
unselfishness. The national life must
aim for the moral and spiritual uplift
Of the people of the nation and also for
the people of the world. There is no
safety in a national life that disregards
the great truths and principles which
God has established as the foundations
of prosperous and successful nations.
