MINISTERING TO SPIRITUAL
NEEDS


/ PRIMARY TOPIC-When the House
Was Crowded.
JUNIOR ToPIC-Who Can Forgive
Sin?
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP
IC-Bringing People to Christ.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
IC-Christianity' Concern for Spiritual
Health.
Man is so constantly concerned
with his physical nature, the needs
and interests Of his body, that he is
prone to forget that there is within
him spiritual nature which is in
fact his real self. The body which
is the temporary dwelling place of
the soul is most Importantly rel
atively it is of but slight signifi-
canoe when considered alongside of
the spiritual life of man.
Our lesson presents the Lord Je-
sus as being rightly concerned with
the needs of the palsied mans body,
but his act of healing was incidental
to the infinitely more important act
Of forgiving his sins. Consider him,
for his was indeed
Ia Hopeless Case ". 81.
Incurably afflicted and helpless
physically, but far more deeply af-.
ficted spiritually was this poor
man, for he was still in his sins. No
man was able to heal his body, only
God could heal his soul. He was
indeed hopeless until he met Jesus.
He knows no hopeless case. With
God all things are possible, and
Jesus Christ is God.
We are even as was this man,
for without God we too are without
hope (Eph. 2:12). Let us face the
facts and admit that unless we are
saved through Christ we are eter-
nally and completely lost.
II. Impossible Conditions wv. l.
2, a.
We say that the circumstances
surrounding this man were such as
to make it impossible for him to
reach the Lord, for so they would
have been apart from the spirit of
divine urgency which impelled his
helpers to cut through every excuse
and brush aside every hindrance.
Where there's a will there's a
way" Had these men been con-
rolled by convention they would
never have put their friend at the
1eet of Jesus. But note that before
taking up the roof they tried the
door. They tried to use the proper
entry, but it was blocked. 1t often
ls-sometimes by customs, some
umes by religious ceremony, often
oy vain philosophy.
iii. Immediate Conversion ". 50.
AT once Jesus sees their faith and
korgives the man his sins. God al
ways welcomes and honors faith.
Note that Jesus-who as God had
tne power to forgive sins-immedi-
ately cleansed him from all I'M
righteousness.
This mans affiiction proved to be
ms greatest blessing. If he had not
mad the palsy he might never have
met the Lord. Suffering properly
borne may be a means of grace.
Ihat may sound like pious plati-

BRANDS CRITIC
AS COMM U MIST
ACCuSers Of 'FaSCism'
Hit in Speech

NEW YORK. June 80 GNSD.
National c o m m n d er Daniel
Doherty of tha American Legion
today denounced the Gellerman
report criticizing the legion as a
Fascist organization and linked its
author to Communist influence.
Addressing $500 cheering dele
gates to the National Education
AssoCiation's convention. Doherty
asserted the report had the ap
proval of Prof. George S. Counts
of Teachers College who, he
charged. is directly affiliated with
Communist activity
The national commander bit
terly aSSailed Prof William Geller-
man of Northwestern University,
author of the report, and said his
work was "the puny product OF a
small mind.
FASCIST" CHARGE
In the report, released by
Teachers College on Sunday coin
cident with the beginning of the
NEA convention, Professor Geller-
mann charged the Legion was
fascist" controlled by a small
group of "reactionaries," undemo-
cratic and un-American.
Last night at a meeting of
$4,000 members of the NEA in
Madison Square Garden, Doherty
was prepared to answer this
criticism but wasn't called on. He
denied, however, that he had been
gagged
NOT GAGGED"
In introducing Doherty to the
delegates at the Hippodrome
Willard E. Givens, executive secre-
tary of the NEA, not only dis
avowed the Gellermann report but
left no doubt that the national
commanders failure to speak last
night was an accident.
Doherty roundly scored the re-
port and asserted Professor Geller-
mann, a member of Legion post
in Kent, Wash, is no credit to
the Legion. He called the pro-
fessor's principles un-American.
AS a president for the next
year delegates chose Rueben T.
Shaw, head of Philadelphia's S
Northeast High Schools science
department. R. E. Offenhauer
president of Bowling Green (Ohio)
University, was reelected treasurer
without opposition. Eleven new
vice presidents, three new mem
bers of the executive committee

chosen.

it is bilatera' and multilateral
and that the fair dealing which
it implies must be reciprocated.
"Not Limited"
It is a policy which was not
in its inception, or subsequently,
limited to one hemisphere. It
has proven so successful in the
Western Hemisphere that the
American republics believe that
it could succeed in the rest of
the world if the spirit which
lies behind it we're better under
stood end more actively striven
for in the other parts of the
world.
Furthermore, the policy of the
good neighbCr is, as we know,
not limited to those problems of
international relations which
may result in war. We are
against war and have agreed
among ourselves quietly to dis
cuss difficulties in such a way
that the possibility of war has
become remote. But the policy
involves also matters of trade
and matters affecting the in
terchange of culture.
"CIoser Contacts"
In these modern days when
so many new economic and So
cial problems call for the revi.
sion of many old economic and
social tenets, closer personal
contacts are an essential to the
Well-being of nations.
That is why the New York
World Fair and the San Fran.
cisco Fair are well-timed for
1889. They will encourage that
interchange of thought, of cul-
ture, and of trade which are so
vital today. They will give to the
opposite ends of our country an
opportunity to see the exhibits
and visitors from the rest of the
World-they will give to those
visitors a splendid chance to see
something of the length and
breadth Of the United States.

Asks Visitors to u. S.

I encourage all of my COM
patriots to learn all they can at
first hand about other nations
and to make friends there, but
I wish that more of the citizens
of other nations could visit us
and make friends here.
All of us realize. Of course,
that the affairs of many parts
of the world are, to put it
politely. somewhat diStraight.
Such a condition necessarily
accompanies wars and rumorS
of wars.
We in this hemisphere are
happily removed, in large
measure, both from fear and
from the controversies which
breed it. In a larger sense,
however, we cannot remain un-
concerned, especially because
it is our fortune to enjoy friend
ship and good relations with all
nations.
"Good Neighbor"
You who represent the other
nations here today have heard
what is known as the policy of
the good neighbor. To that
neighbor, to that policy we have
steadily adhered, and it may
well be said that it is the def
mite policy of all the American
republics.
1t is a policy which can never
be merely unilateral. In stress
ing it the American republics
appreciate, am confident, that
