The aim OF the committee who gave
this lesson for today was that we
might discus the essentials Of world
peace.
Jesus is called 1.-THE Prince Of
Peace. In what sense is this to be
taken? First to make peace between
man and God. ''That he might recon-
Gle both Jews and Gentiles-unto
God" Eph. 2:16, "By him to reconcile
all things to himself, having made
peace through the blood of his cross"
Col. 1.20. But he came also TO make
peace among men. Men are in rebel
lion against God, and at variance with
one another.
Gods method OF bringing men to
peace with him Is by regenerating
their natures by the Holy Spirit. Men
thus regenerated become loyal sub
jects of God. They no longer break
his commandments but keep them.
They love and adore God as their
Father and serve him cheerfully and
joyfully. To them chs commandments
are notigrievious."
Just 30 men feel toward each other
when they have pardoned and renew
ed In righteousness" HE that loveth
God loves his brother also" The truth
in peace will not reign except among
men OF good will. The bugate trans
lates Luke 2:14. GLORY to God in the
highest, on earth peace among men Of
good Will" The world can be yed
from the horrors of war only by Gre
ating men of good, or making "gc cd
will among men," How is this to be
done7 BY the saving grace of Jesus
Christ. His gospel must be. preached
to all the world ito make the world
safe for democracy"
Sacrifcial service is mighty power
to bring men together. A common
cause unifies men. A common peril
makes men forget their difference. For
