A SURE CURE FOR THE WORLDS
WOES
Lesson for November rs is "A Liv-
ing Sacrifice. Rom. Chapter ".
by William T. Ellis.)

We have been studying about the
adventures of Paul on his way tC
Rome. Two years before these, the
letter had been written to the little
company of Christians, who lived anG
worshiped beneath the shadow o.
Nero's throne The gospel had trav
eled faster than the interchangeable mis-
sionary apostle.
Always there is dynamite in clear
ly stated truth. No army ever Great
ed can stand against the propaganda
of principles. We in our own time
have seen enlightened convictions
overturn old despotisms. Every new
cause comes to power and victory by
means. OF the simple statement of its
truth. "Ye shall know the truth and
the truth shall make you free" There
is power for today in this old letter
of Paul's, because it states eternal
truth.
If we want to know whittier the
present tendencies toward old sophis
tries and self indulgences are leading
us, we have but to read the first chap
ter of Paul's letter to the Romans
Even the old law given to Moses was
unable 10 save a society given up to
fleshliness. Paul pronounces the
doom ITO be carnally minded is
death" That judgment should ring
itself into the ears of our sensualized
day. No better tonic for the times is
conceivable than careful study by
Christian people of the entire letter
to the Romans.
A very close and practical relation
exists between truth and life. We
say commonly 1T doesn't matter what
a man believes, if he only does the
best he knows" All history answers
that error. Deed is born of creed
Actions are the product of meditation
"As man thinketh in his heart, so
is he" This letter is notable sum.
mary CT doctrine. setting forth Paul's
theology In loftiest utterances. Yes,
so it is; but it is all headed up in con-
siderations of conduct Paul's thought
is a thorough train that makes mo
stops until it arrives at the great de-
pot of transformed character. There
is no spiritual truth that does not
eventuate into life. Think loftily and
loftily you will live Think basely
and basely you will live. From this
law there is no exception.
The Document Itself.
Only a Paul of Tarsus could COM
press into such brief space the ire
teachings of this twelfth
chapter of Romans, which is the as
signed Sunday school lesson for today.
Light is shed upon it by the modern

| translation, given by DR.. Weymouth,
| which ! quote:
Il plead with you therefore, breth-
rem. by the compositions Of God, to
present all your faculties to him as a
living and holy sacrifice, acceptable
to him. This with you will be an act
of reasonable worship. And do not
follow the customs of the present age
but be transformed by the entire re-
newal Of your minds, so that you may
learn by experience what Gods will is
that will which is good and beautiful
and perfect.
For through the authority gracious.
ly given to me warn every individual
among you not to value himself un-
duly. but to cultivate sobriety of judg-
ment in accordance with the amount
of faith which God has allotted to
each one. For just as there are in the
one human body many parts and these
parts have not all the same function:
so collectively we form one body in
Christ, while individually we are link.
ed to one another as its members.
But since we have special gifts which
differ in accordance with the diversi-
fled work graciously entrusted to us.
If it is prophecy, let the prophet speak
Yin exaIt proportion to his faith: if ii
is the gift of administration. let the
administrator exercise a sound judg-
ment in his duties. The teacher must
do the same in his teaching; and he
who exhorts others, in his exhortation.
He who gives should be liberal: he
who is in authority should be energet.
ic and alert; and he who succours the
afflicted should do it cheerfully.
Let your love be perfectly sincere,
Regard with horror what Is evil: cling
to what is right. AS for brotherly love.
be affectionate one to another: in mat.
tiers of worldly honor, yield to one an.
other. Do not be indolent when zeal
is required. Be thoroughly warm
hearted, the Lords own servants, full
of joyful hope, patient under persecu.
ton. earnest and persistent in prayer.
Relieve the necessities Of Gods PEG.
pie: always practice hospitality. In.
woke blessings on your prosecutors
blessings not curses Rejoice with
those who rejoice: weep with those
who weep. Have full sympathy with
one another. Do not give your pinds
to high things. but let humble ways
content you. Do not be wise in your
own conceits.
PAY back to no man evil for evil.
Take thought for what is right and
seemly in every ones esteem. If you
can, so far as it depends on you, live
at peace with all the world. Do not
be revengeful, my dear friends. but
give way before anger: for it is writ.
ten. Revenge belongs to me; | will
pay back says the Lord. On the con.
trary, therefore. if your enemy is hun
cry, give him food: if he is thirsty
quench his thirst. For by doing this
you will be heaping burning Goals up.
on his head. Do not be overcome by
evil. but overcome evil with goodness"
