The Church And
The Community
By REV. jobs. KNUDSEN

The remark is often heard: 1 do not
care to go to church because the
people who go are no better than the
rest of us. They should be, and they
think they are, but you will find
just as much evil and dishonesty
among church people as among 9TH
ers. And if that is the case, the whole
thing is rottenness and dishonesty
Provided such statement is more
than an alibi, covering up indiffer-
ence and laziness, it deserves to be
considered and to be met Let us
therefore in all seriousness try to
understand it and answer it.
Let us start by making an admis-
sion on both sides. You, Mr.. Critic,
will undoubtedly admit that you have
known many people who have tried
seriously to live so that the word
of God may bear fruit in their lives.
You will admit that they have been
source of inspiration, strength and
comfort to their neighbors. On the
other hand, it should be admitted as
sad fact that many people who go
to church seem to have forgotten
any message they may have heard
the moment they step outside the
church door. In fact, l believe that
all sincere church goers, excepting
the hypocrite who is not sincere, will
confess their inability to live the
way they should.
Even church organizations have
much to account for in this manner
Grave have been the sins that have
been committed in the name of the
church through the ages, and grave
are the faults even today. And if
penitence during Lent is to mean
anything at all, church organizations
should be the first to confess their
sins
But what characterizes the church
goer and the church itself better
than the confession and forgiveness
of sin. Although we speak about
"the communion of Saints" the word
Saint does not characterize the church
goer A better translation would be
"the fellowship of those who believe"
and to have faith, or to believe, in
cludes confession and forgiveness.
Our human church is not gather
ing of saints but of sinners. Re-
member that when you criticize! The
one who kneels in faith confesses
his unworthiness. He seeks help
Would you not care to join him?
