| confession and ask pardon and power

was the Jewish creed, II Is significant
that this technicality was waived by

From this we argue that, while obedi-
ence TO Gods provisions is of prime
importance. the Lord looks first of all
TO the motive and makes allowance
for human imperfection.
We would not have It understood
by this that there is justification In
altering or ignoring the plain COM
mands of divinity TO suit the wnirns
or the negligence of men. but we do
mean that God is considerate Of mans
conditions and values a gbod intent
above observances. There are cases
where an omission Of technical for
mality Is 1ustifiable in the face ot
earnest zeal. as was the case with the
men of northern Israel. A man may
be saved. for instance, without beIns
baptized, IL so situated that formal
baptism Is impossible. Just as mar
riages fully as holy and righteous
have been consummated under cir
cumstances where the FERNS of we'd
lock could not be carried out. The
trouble with too many Of us. however,
Is that we allow our own convenience,
our whims, or our interests. to create
emergencies and then expect the good
ness OF God to overlook our short
comings.
There is evil in a religion the de-
pends on forms and has no spiritu-
ality; there Is also an evil In religion
that is altogether emotional and
scorns all formality. Because in a
emergency the spiritual attitude Is
evidently the more essential. yet II ~
also essential that we should observe
the forms which Jesus has laid upon
us. II is n matter Of obedience. and
without obedience emotion can never
bring us eternal life. When it Is nee
essary to make a choice between OBJ
servances and heartfelt piety, there
Is no question but what empty form,
should be the part to sacrifice. Gou
asks no in. possibilities of his children,
hut he does ask obedience inasfar as
obedience is possible, and he has no
patience with our own creation of cir
cumstances which prevent implicit
obedience. No man Is saved because
he is baptized, but every man who is
saved will be baptized IL such a thing

farm paper published at Springfield,

"Coconuts are one of the largest
money making crops of the islands.
While they will grow in almost any
province, there are localities that are
especially known for their great nut
production.
There was until recently no system
for planting these trees. as plantations
were usually sold after the trees were
two and three years old. The object
was to get as many trees on a given
area as was possible to grow. These
plantations were then sold for so
much a tree. When 1t was seen that
the trees would not bear the quality
of fruit they should, more pains were
taken in the planting and some def
mite planting. scheme adhered to. This
has greatly Increased the size OF the

bread and wine to keep us from sin or

a Christian who does not follow the
Savior's injunction TO partake in re-
membrance of his sacrifice for US.
We do not get n ticket to heaven by
joining the church and attending It's
services. but the man who loves Goa
will testify his allegiance before men
and will love the gathering together
of other Gods children. A man may
be a Christian without Joining the

all the world that he is on the Lords
