Refusal of Union.
We must not overlook the word of
warning. Some will say. do not want

Will that help you any If what He
says is true?
"If any man abide not in Me he is cast
forth as branch. and is withered, and
they gather them. and cast them into
the fire, and they are burned"
In commenting on these words, Rev.
De Witt S. Clark said:
THE drying up of the life is a favorite
doctrine with some who speculate about
the doom of the impenitent. But here il
appears to have occurred already. and by
voluntary refusal to stay in union with
Christ. Such are dead while they live
And 1t is mans impulse to cast them In
to the fire. Judgment is visited on them
already. Hotter flames there can hardly
be than those of scorn. hatred and pas
sion into which his fellows throw the
hypocrite. He writhes under the con-
seriousness of their contempt and dis
trust. His empty professions wither and
crackle under the intense burnings.
Well is it that here and now they are
consumed. that he may have space to
repent. Thus only can he have hope Of
being truly united with Christ. and, par
taking of His life, begin to show the
signs Of it."
Christ does not force Himself into a
life that is unwilling to receive Him.
He stands at the door of the heart and
knocks, saying, "If any man hear My
voice and will open the door I will come
In and sup with him and he with Me-
He does not force the door open. He
will not be in you unless you are ready
and willing to abide in Him.
If you will yield yourself to Him. He
is ever ready to yield Himself to you.
IF men will submit themselves to
Christ. He will manifest Himself in
them and their life-walk, In way pass
ing all their thoughts"

Rules Of Conduct.
By Robert D. Burbank.

Rules of conduct have been prescrib-
ed by all the religions of heathenfsm
and all the PHILOSOPHERS of paganism,
and even by agnosticism and atheism,
but Christianity derives it's power
not from any set rules of conduct, but
from its basic principle of love. Chris
tianity sets no rules of conduct. but
frees it's followers from such rules.
This freedom or liberty is not license.
but. like the civil liberty in de-
mocracy, Is restricted to non-interfer-
ence with the rights of others.
The mighty conflict of the nations
across the sea is arousing people of
the world today from their self-satis-
faction and gross materialism to a
realization of their need of something
more vital than rules of conduct, and
turning to God is sweeping the war
turnin gto God is sweeping the war
cursed lands so nightly that its in
f1uence is being felt to the ends of
the earth.

Standards of Christianity.

Has Christianity no set rules of con-
duct then?
Surely there is the decalogue and
Christ's Interpretation of it, but Christ
established standards by which to
measure act rather than rules pro-
hibiting them. He gave as the first
commandment, Thou shalt love the
Lord thy God with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul and with all thy
mind. and with all thy strength" and
as the second. Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself." Instead of set
OF negative rules prohibiting certain
things, Christianity provides a positive
standard of love to God and love to
man by which every thought, word
and deed can be measured and de-
termined by the individual for himself.
Susanna Wesley, the Mother of Meth
odism," taught her children this def
milton of sin: Whatever weakens your
reason, 1mpairs the tenderness of your
conscience, obscures your sense of God
or takes off the relish of spiritual
things: whatever increases the author
ity of your body over your mind; that
thing. to you, is SIM" Is it any won

Duty to God.

The story of Daniel at the court of
Nebuchadnezzar is the clearest Old
Testament illustration of a young man
who was true to the moral standards
and rules of conduct of his home, even
when surrounded by the luxuries and
confronted with the temptations of the
richest and most powerful and wicked
court in the world at that time.
AS youth Daniel was taken to the
court Of Babylon to be trained In the
learning and skill Of the Chaldeans.
and refused to eat the meat or drink
the wine provided by the king. because
it had been used in idolatrous service.
and the meat had not been properly
bled, as required by the Mosaic law. He
requested and obtained for himself and
his companions a vegetable diet that
they might not have to break the rules
Of conduct set for them at home. and
then prayed for and received Gods
blessing in the form of better health
and greater favor at the court than
those who partook of the kings meat
and wine.

lions. he maintained the standard OF
purity set by his consciousness Of good
