WEEKEND MEDITATIONS

Let us therefore come boldly
unto the throne OF grace that
We may obtain mercy, and flnd
grace to help in the time of
need" These words mean
much and are n source of great
est comfort There is no time in
life when the Christian can ap-
preciate the help and the bless
ings of our Heavenly Father
more, than when trouble and
adversely come. Then. he is led
TO draw nigh to the throne of
grace with the blessed assurance
that God hears and God answers
the petitions of His children.
Yet, there are some. who, when
trouble and adversely come.
turn away from this only refuge
not seeming to recognize
Gods loving hand in all our

Again. such a theory
makes pacific relationships
between men and nations look
needlessly Utopian. If all
agree not to agrees, they
must as certainly be at peace
with each other as though
they had all agreed not to
resist. So that, whilst it sets
up so difficult a standard of
behavior, the rule of non-re-
sistance is not one whit more
efficient as a preventive of
war, than the rule of non-ag-
gression.
LASTLY, IL can be shown
that non-resistance is also alb
solutely wrong. We may not
carelessly abandon our rights.
We may not give away our
birthright for the sake of
peace. IF 1T BE A DUTY TO
