Smyrna times., 1938-01-06

A certain philanthropist had a
fountain placed by a wayside for
the benefit of his tired thirsty fell
low men who passed that way on
the hot days of the summer time.
To this fountain he had chained a
drinking cup which was very beau
tifully designed.
Some time later there came
along that way an art critic. He
stood by the fountain studying its
design and began to find fault with
art work which was upon the cup.
cup.
The remarks of the art critic
were carried to the giver of the
fountain. Upon receiving these
critical remarks the philanthropist
asked if there were any who found
that the fountain brought relief to
them on hot summer day. When
he was told that many travellers
stopped there and found refresh
ment, he smiled and seemed salts
fed and expressed the wish that
the art critic himself might find
that the cup he criticised could
carry refreshment to himself.
After ALL the most important
thing about the fountain was not
the design on the cup, but whether
or not it brought relief and refresh
ment to the hot thirsty travellers
along the dusty road.
There are a number of people
who will stand off and criticise
Jesus Christ. They will deny His
virgin birth, His sinless life, His
atoning blood, His resurrection, His
ascension, His coming again. They
will deny almost everything con
cerning Him, but while they are
standing there denying this or
that, there are thousands of others,
who, drinking the water of life
which He so freely gives to the
whosoever will, find a deep salts
flying refreshment to their weary
souls.
1t is very evident that the critic
has never deeply drank from the
cup that he criticises.
One drink from the Fountain of
Life, the Christ, will open your
eyes to the beauty of the Cup.
