a mans tether. Some are more con-

character. A man who lives for what
he eats is a duck, who lives TO eat.

sheep, who grows one coat a year and

If you wear a wooden coat ycu are

you are but wearing something that
a bird wore before you. All these
things are secondhand. So man or
woman who lives for these things is
living a sort of junk-shop existence.
IF there is any phrase I would like
to see buried beyond recovery it is the
phrase soft snap Pity the man or
woman. the boy or girl, who is living
for a soft snap There is an animal
corresponding to this sort OF man
TOO. 1t is a pig
Then # We are not to live for food
or clothes or ease, what are we TO live
for? The text gives US suggestion.
Jesus Christ who brought life to light
/ 90 not mean that one must pray On
mountain tops or preach from a boat
as Jesus did. but If we catch the spirit
of Jesus's life and bring it into our
own, we will have found the real tone
of life. That is what is meant by the
words of the text. Jesus has shown
US through his life the real meaning of
our own.
But you viii notice that the apostle
goes further and says that Chris
tianity is not some little tag we tie
on TO show that We are shipped and in
sure our delivery in heaven. Chris
tianity is the spirit Of Christ. the
flavor of his life, something for US to
live. the pattern for our conduct /
believe that the bravest belief that
man has is that he lives beyond the
grave. He has it. we all have it and
cling to il with tenacity. All nations
have it. Through the ages they had
been seeking an answer TO the question
After death, what?' The Jews got a
little light. then Jesus opened the win
dows to eternity and brought inmor-
tally to light.
Thus you see Jesus brought two
worlds to ught-life and immortality.
Jesus came to us not only TO redeem
US from our sins but to open up 10 US
the meaning of immortality
The one great call Of the hour is
for man to ask. Have yet begun
to liver What must we do? Take
the. principle of life from the author
of life. This is the meaning Of life,l
and if man practices it he is living
out the Christly principle. And imnor-
tality is but continuation of such a
life. Oh then may God give success
10 the lives of every young man and
young woman herein two worlds.
