4 GREAT number Of Christians
"A today cannot understand how
= one came to be "A Prince of
Peace" and now. after nearly 1000
years OF His teaching, America should
be engaged in the most awful war
that the world has ever known.
And the reason they stumble is be-
cause they only take a part OF the
truth. And a part Of the truth is
ever the worst Of lies"
Lovers of peace must refuse to
surrender their convictions. The
principle Of brotherhood, the gospel
of reconciliation. the commandment
of love. the spirit Of forgiveness. the
precept Of the Sermon on the Mount,
the life OF service and Of sacrifice
these are living truths. As convic-
lions and ideals they should never be
surrendered.
Did Not Want Peace.
Jesus came to bring peace on earth,
but He came to a world of sin. where
sinful men did not want peace; they
could make more money without
peace. They could make more money
in times Of war. and they would fight
Him to the death rather than cave
So Jesus told His disciples Cwhen
the time of hatred camel to buy
sword, and He said unto them.
When I sent you out without purse
and wallet and shoes. lacked ye any
thing?" and they said nothing. And
He said unto them: He who hath
purse, let him take II. likewise a
wallet, and he who hath none let him
sell his clock and buy a sword"
Sword Is Needed.
Times have changed, and such will
be the bitterness, that you would
better go without a clock than a
sword; such will be the bitterness
that a mans foes will be those Of
his own household such the feeling
that my truth viii stir up that It
will set a man at variance against
his father and the daughter against
her mother. and the daughterinlaw
against her motherinlaw."
This came to pass in Christ's own
time. They hated His followers. and
Him they hung. Yes. someone Will
say, Jesus said. He who used the
sword would perish by the sword"
Here again Peter uses the sword
against an officer who had come by
order Of his superior, to make this
arrest, and II won't do to resist an
officer when he comes to make an
arrest. And if Jesus could not have
put back the ear Peter had cut off.
that act would have brought the
Roman soldiers down on them. and
right there and then they would all
have persisted by the sword. and all
the training Jesus had given them

face substitution for the units lost

1t is absolutely vital that we get all
the non-productive units into pro-
duction. Every boy in Germany is
in active prod dlctive service today.
Every boy we can get to produce in
this country will be working against
