III. MOment0us Decison-Sal-
walton by Grace
The final decision of the council
is sent not only by Paul and Barna-
has, but also by a committee from
Jerusalem. a gracious gesture of
fellowship. Courtesy is not out of
place in dealing with even such diff
ficult things as controversies on
Christian doctrine-in fact it should
be most in place in such situation.
AS a matter Of record Ga wise
procedure in such a easel, a letter
was sent which, after addressing
the Gentiles as 'brethren," re
viewed the history of the matter
and then, without mentioning cir
cumcision at all, puts upon the Gen
tiles mo greater burden than the
necessary things" And what were
these? Those things which relate
to purity of life as those who were
enjoying Christian liberty The law
of Moses need not be kept as a
ground of salvation. They were
saved by grace. But grace can
never be the cloak of careless liv-
ing, nor can liberty in Christ be
interpreted as license to live in sin.
We are set free in Christ. not that
we may sin, but that we may go
and sin no more.

faith of Jesus Christ Galatians ZIG
Persecution from outside was
soon followed by what was even
more seriOus-difficulty within the
Church. If Satan cannot destroy
Gods work in one way, he cum
ningly tries another plan. Although
the first council at Jerusalem (Acts
I'D had decided that Ito the Gen
tiles also hath God granted repent
ance unto life" the question did not
stay settled, for there were persist
ent Judaizing teachers who now
cOntended that even though the
Gentiles could be saved, they had
to come into the Church by way of
Judaism and first fulfill the Jewish
rite of circumcision.
I. A Serious Difference of Opinion
Grace Versus Law
The story of how this vital and
fundamental question came up is
found in the early verses Of Acts
IS. The entire future of the gospel
ministry was in a sense dependent
on the solution of this problem
Christianity is the only religious
faith in the world that presents
justification by grace as the way
of redemption; all others follow
(more or less) the path of salvation
by works. The question now was;
Shall works of the law be mingled
with grace-can Jesus Christ alone
save men, or is salvation through
Jesus Christ plus something else?
How was such a serious question to
be settled? Should argument and
strife be permitted to go on until
the stronger party prevailed? Bet
ter judgment indicated the desira-
bility of
III. A Christian Method of Settle
ment-COunciI not Controversy
There may be times when it be-
comes the duty of the Christian
worker to take an uncomprOmising
stand for the truth of God and re-
fuse to be moved, come what may
But certainly there should be no
such spirit in dealing with differing
interpretations of Scripture on the
part of sincere and earnest Chris
tian brethren. How much would
be gained in the Church today if.
instead of magnifying differences
and permitting personal desires
and ambitions to intervene, men
were willing to sit down in the spirit
Of Christ around the tables of Chris
tan council and brotherhood, pre-
sided over and directed by the Holy
Spirit (see Acts 1929.
The whole question was honestly
and carefully considered by the Sec
ond council at Jerusalem, with the
result that there was a vindication
of the preachers of Gods grace.
After presenting a plain disavoWal
of those who had troubled them and
subverted their souls (What seri-
Gus thing it is to teach error con-
corning Gods WordD, the council
being of one accord, gave recogni-
ton to Paul and Barnabas as men
who had 'hazarded their lives for
the name of the Lord Jesus" and
were worthy of confidence and sup
port.
No man should think more highly
of himself than he ought. Humility
is Christian grace which well be-
fits a sinner saved by grace. But
the Bible abounds with admonitions
to honor one another, to recognize
the laborer as being worthy of his
hire, to give recognition to those
who are over us in the Lord. The
brethren at Jerusalem were

 The plan this afternoon is to form a sandbag dam at the mouth of the brook by Dallas avenue and then all pools deep enough to con- ceal the boys body will be drained. Much of the debris which damed the brook has been removed during the search and now the final phase

TWO NAVAL PLANES
 CRASH AT QUINCY

 ever, as their attention was riveted on the huge hull of the aircraft carrier.
 The plane that plummeted to earth ploughed into the side of Cedar Hill. One body was recovered from the wreckage and about 100 yards away searchers found the crumpled form of the planes second occupant, who apparently had ball. ed out with insufficient altitude.
 Altitude In Doubt
 Witnesses of the crash variously estimated the altitude of the planes at 400 to 2O00 feet.
 A third body was found in the plane which crashed into the home of a family named Erickstrom, and authorities believed there was a se- cond occupant of that plane.
 On the theory that this man might have bailed out and landed in woods, a detail from the naval re- serve station was assigned to search the countryside.
 Three Planes Close
 Everett Wynot, proprietor of a nearby garage, told the United Press that he saw three planes in 6 close triangular formation. "They started to bank, and the top plane seemed to lose altitude and slide in- to the one next to it. The top plane plunged into a house below on Cedar Hill road and cut it in two,' Wynot said.
 T saw a man climb out of the
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-04-04

cockpit of the other plane as it cir cled toward Quincy. The last I saw of him he was floating down beneath his parachute, which seemed to have opened okeh.
 "The lead plane in the formation immediately wheeled and circled over the house into which the other plane had plunged. could see the smoke from here."
 First House Struck
 The first house struck by the plane that was burned was the home of MT. and Mrs. Herbert Bess,. on Shep- ard avenue. None of teh occupants was injured, not even their three month-old daughter Beverly, asleep in a second-floor bedroom. The plane de-roofed the tWo-story cot- tage and continued on, crashing into the Erickstrom house opposite and bursting into flames.
 Trapped in the cockpit, this pilot was cremated.
 Assistant secretary of the Navy Edison, who accompanied his wife to the Wasp launching, immediate ly asked the officer of the day at the Squantum Air Base for the names of the missing fliers and a list was supplied him.

 Senator George T. Culhane oi Waterbury made the motion this morning that permission be granted the Cities and Boroughs committee to hold hearings this afternoon in the senate chamber. The motion was carried and the permission granted. The hearings will be on bills concerning changes in the Wa terbury city charter.

Culhane Bill Passed

Culhane Bill PaSSed
 The House today passed Senator George T. Culhane's bill providing for registration of new voters once a month in the City of Waterbury, but it added an amendment to the original. This amendment ex- empts Waterbury from the provi- sions of the state laws requiring "to be made" lists.
 The bill in it's original form had passed the Senate, but now goes back in amended form. No opposi- ton is expected.
 The bill provides that new vot- CTS shall be registered on the first Wednesday of each month save October in city election years and November in state and national election years. Now new voters are made but once a year.
 New Haven County Budget
 Sharp reduction in the New Haven County budget for the next biennium was to be proposed at a meeting of county legislators this afternoon.
 While the actual figures were not available at noon today, it was learned that the budget committee for the county would recommend expenditures of about $30,000 less a year for the next two years. County legislators were also ex- pected to dispose of officially the proposal for a $15O,000 addition to the county courthouse at Water bury.
 A committee of three legislators studied the Waterbury situation and reported back at a meeting held two weeks ago that there was no urgent need for such alterations as had been suggested. The cou- mittee's own recommendation that minor alterations be made in the structure was expected to be &C., cepted when acted upon today.

 The plan for enlargement of the courthouse was prepared by the Waterbury Association. The county legislators who inspected it, in- cluding Rep. Daniel J. Mahaney of Waterbury. the only Democratic member of this group, felt that no serious problem of congestion or overcrowding confronted occupants of the Waterbury building at the present time.
 The county meeting today was also to take up the matter of pen sion for Timothy Carney, former superintendent of the county court house in Waterbury.
