Up and down Broadway the best
known restaurant men in town We're
discussing Rutherford and his article
heatedly and wondering If they ought
not take some action to vindicate
themselves. They said Rutherford
didn't know what he was talking
about. and that they would be pleas

One OF the features which will be

ed that certain line elevators engaged

two companies do not compete but
where the other concern is located

the price of grain at a higher point

been resorted to to the detriment Of

ANSWER TO A QUESTION
FROM A READER OF THE
SUGGESTIVE QUESTIONS
QUESTION 5. Verses 29-3o,

QUESTION 5. Verses 1890.
Granted that it is the duty of all Of
us to love our enemies is II also our
duty under all circumstances, when we
have been smtten on one cheek to
| turn the other also, and If one steals
our cloak. to let him take our coat
also?
ANSWER. Jesus was a pictorial
teacher. He used language so as 10
form an outline picture of his mean
| ing. He taught in parallels even when
he did not reveal his parable Who
ever interprets Jesus literally will
| misunderstood him. His words must
be Interpreted by his method of speech
| and his character, in order to get their
proper meaning. For example. when
he said. Except We eat the flesh of
the Son OF Man and drink his blood
We have no life in you.' he did not
mean to be understood literally; he
only drew a picture of the great truth
that except Christ becomes to us spir-
| itualiy what food is to us physically.
we cannot have spiritual life. His evil
dent meaning in the instruction ON
which the question is based is. that We
must be willing when we are smitten
on one cheek to turn the other also.
to give him our coat also, providing
that Is necessary in order to do the
viii of God in any particular instance.
If by so doing, for example, we can
develop such self control and manifest
patience with, and love for our enemy.
SO that we can win him to love God
and love us, then it is doubtless our
duty to literally keep this command
ment. But to blindly turn the other
cheek under all circumstances, would
frequently mean to put premium up-
on crime, TO encourage a bad man in
MS wrong doing, and make religion a
laughing stock. true Christian
must be willing to obey the prompt
ings of Gods Holy Spirit at all times.
no matter how painful it may be. or
how contrary to his human nature. or
the general methods of doing things.
