church Notes and Comments
Mrs. a. r. Galloway

Hath a nation changed their
gods, which are vet no gods? but
my people have changed their glory
for that which doth not profit. For
my people have committed two evils;
they have forsaken me the fountain Of
living waters, and hewed them out
cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold
no water. "-Jer. 2:11-13.
A Vision Of God.
We cannot study the state and
trend Of the public mind as reflected
in what we hear and in the long cata-
logues of crime published in our news
papers without realizing that what
ails our country today is not the
natural effects of war and of de-
flated currency and of hard times,
but the fading away of the vision of
God among our people. No matter
what department of life and thought
we study we find therein the nantes
tations of the absence of the God-con-.
seriousness. The people at large are
not thinking about God these days
a God who is the maker and ruler; a
God who has placed us under moral
laws as really as he has placed us UNI
der physical laws, God who has truly
as he loves us will as vigorously meet
the ends of justice. Consequently a
crime wave of enormous proportions
is sweeping over the land. This spirit
of law defiance is supplementing the
spirit of law enforcement Covetous-
ness is invading every realm of bust
ness and setting up reign of materi-
alistic selfishness which laughs at JUS
tice and turns a deaf ear to every cry
of suffering.
1t is folly for us to think that we
are going to get the world right thru
social, political, and economic reforms
and making wealth and happiness to
consist of the abundance of things we
have. We can get the world right
only by giving the world true vision
of God and then making plain and
convincing the truth that only through
the life which comes from God through
his Son Jesus Christ can we make
human experience and destiny salts
factory and beautiful.- Christian Ad-
vocate.
If the above be true, and we be-
lieve it is, all Christians who have not
bowed their knees to Baal should put
into practice this noble sentiment
