RADIANT LIVING
MN on FOUR FACES
By REV. c. NJ. GRKFFETH
FASTER Methodist Church. Ceriltpn. Md.

You have heard Of Janus, the
Roman god, who was considered to
be the porter of heaven. One of his
responsible duties was to open the
doors of each new year. In fact,
even today, the first month of the
new year is named in his honor.
The peculiar feature about Janus
was that he had two faces-one
looking forward and the other
looking backward, just like a door
that swings both in and out. Be
cause of this he was considered the
patron deity Of all entrances and
exits.
When we read Ezekiel, however,
we find him speaking of four men
who had, not two, but four faces.
Wrote he: "As for the likeness of
their faces, they four had the face
Of a man, and the face of a lion,
on the right side: and they four
had the face of an OK on the left
side; They four also had the face
Of an eagle"
Thus Ezekiel gives pictorial ex-
preston of four outstanding quail
ties of character which each of
these four men possessed.
In speaking of these men as
having a face of a man, he is
pointing out that they were men
Of wisdom and sagacity. In speak
ing that they also had faces like
lions he is declaring that they were
men of courage and boldness. In
like manner the faces of oxen sug-
gest their quality of patience and
strength, while that of the eagle
reveals that they were able to
mount up out of the valley Of con-
fiict into the heights of victory.
What phalanx of character
with which to face the world
Such men were able TO meet any
attack of the evils of the world
not only by the wisdom of human
intelligence, and by the courage of |
the lion, but also by the strength of |
the OK, and by the ability to soar
above it all because they had the
lifting power of the eaglel
Such are the traits of character
that give life radiance. And such |
are the traits of character that
men discover within themselves
when they walk with the Christ.
