| who endures it in the right spirit.
V. 4. "And patience, experience;
and experience, hope" Experience
| means "approvedness 1t is con
dition Of enc who has successfully
endured tests. Ones character is
thus revealed to be genuine and to
have depth. Hope is confident
conviction that we shall enjoy Gods
favor here and hereafter.
V. 5. "And hope maketh not
ashamed; because the love of God
is shed abroad in our hearts by the
Holy Ghost which is given u.s." We
are not disappointed and humiliated
because what we hoped for and ex-
pected does not take place. God
endows us with his love; it is shed
abroad in our hearts by the Holy
Spirit.
V. 6. "For when we were yet
without strength, in due time Christ
died for the ungodly." Before men
received the Spirit, they were weak
and unable to live the kind of life
God required.
V. Z. For scarcely for a right
eous man will one die; yet pread-
venture for good man some
would even dare to die 1t is de-
sirable that good men should live.
unregenerated man will often do all
in his power to perpetuate good
moral lives but seldom if ever to
perpetuate evil lives.
V. s. "But commendeth his love
toward us, in that, while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for u.s." Je-
sus took risk when he died for
the sins of the world but he had
faith in mankind and took a chance.
V. 9. much more then, being
now justified by his blood, we shall
be saved from wrath through him. 4"
The word "blood" stands in general
fer Christ's death. Note that there
is a wrath to come, but from this
we may be saved by Christ's atone
ment.
". 10, II. For if, when were
enemies, we were reconciled to God
by the death of his Son, much more
being reconciled, we shall be saved
by his life. And not only SO, but
we also Joy in God though our Lord
Jesus Christ, by whom we have now
received the atonement." Jesus
having risen is now living Saviour
who can do something for us now,
in fact can supply all our need.

Lesson ~ NJ y. Mss!j|| IL! n

Faith in Christ as our Persona
Saviour, Acts 16:13-16; Roman:
SILL, for Sunday, October 4.
AS we begin our study in the
Christian life and ask ourselve:
what Jesus Christ means to the in
dividual, it is fitting that we should
emphasize what the New Testament
does, namely, that Christ is oul
personal Savior.
V. 13. "And on the sabbath day
we went out of the city by river
side, where prayer was wont to be
made; and we sat down and spake
unto the women which resorted
thither.'' In cities where there
were no Jews to build synagogue
they gathered for worship in the
open air. Preachers ought to pro-
claim the gospel more than they do
in the open air, Or any place where
people can be reached.
V. IA. And certain woman
named Lydia, a seller of purple, OF
the city of Thyatira, which wor-
shipped God heard us; whose heart
the Lord opened, that she attended
unto the things which were spoken
of Paul. We do not understand
the significance of Christ as Saw
iOur until we comprehend this basic
religious truth, that salvation is the
gift of God and that everything
which leads us to accept the gift of
irif
constantly at work upon our hearts.
V. Is. ''And when she was bap-
tized, and her household, she be-
sought us saying, If We have judg-
ed me to be faithful to the Lord,
come unto my house, and abide
there And she constrained us
All we can do to bring about our
salvation is to yield our hearts to
God and let him save us.
v. /. Therefore being justified
by faith, we have peace with God
through Jesus Christ" The man
who is justified is pardoned; there
is an internal change whereby one
becomes ga new creature" Saving
faith is essentially an act of self
surrender to that which has been
believed. 1t is personal trust
that affects the whole man and
leads him into vital communion
with God; one result is peace in
that the sense of guilt is gone.
v. 2. "By whom also we have
access by faith into this grace
wherein we stand and rejoice in the
hope of glory" In spite Of Daily
contest against sin, a Christian re-
joices in the hope Of the glory of
God.
v. 3. "Not only so but we glory
in tribulations also; knowing that
tribulation worketh patience" Trib-
ulation is valuable because it en-
riches the character Of the person

WHICH WAY, AMERICA2

We are engaged in what may
time We are lighting on the seven
seas ani the FIVE continents. The
entire world is the battlefield now.
The war is far away tc llost of us.
We can hardly realize that we are
at war. We must be shaken out of
our eolupIacency or we will follow
the nations G.. antiquity into dust
and oblivion. We have been living
in world OF il'usicl.-and still are
We were told tllae Hitler was bluff
ing, thar the Japs could not carry
on war OF long duration, that
their aviators had poor eyesight
and that cur navy would blast them
from their island in less than three
months.
Let US turn back the pages OF
history for a moment, think OF all
the nations that have risen and
fallen-the empires of Assyria,
Persia, Egypt, Greece and Rome.
What made these great nations fan
into oblivion? The empires of
Greece and Rome did not crumble
because of defeats in battle. Greece
was never more united than after
the battles of Marathon and Their
mopylae. In Greece shone the first
rays of democracy. Here was born
some of the greatest minds that
ever plumbed the depths of human
understanding. Here was given to
the world the greatest of arts
When Rome, the eternal city,
mighty Republican Rome, is men,
toned the word sounds like magic
Rome was not conquered from out
side by the armies of the barbar-
ians; she was conquered from the
inside. She was sick from a disease
that had been eating at her vitals
for 500 years before her fall
Rome fell because of her corrup-
ton. Her people were immoral,
her armies bought and sold to the
highest bidder.
Greece also fell from inside. The
banishment of her famous men, dis
unity, and dissensions amongst her
people brought about her downfall.
Today her beautiful monuments
are the barracks of ruthless en-
emy Her people are dying from
starvation.
Rome, the Eternal City, stiH
stands, but her people are humiIiat-
ed. Yes, America has much to
learn from these vanquished en-
pires. We must grid ourselves for
long, hard struggle ahead. We
must stop all strikes, all dissensions,
all lack Of unity, and abolish all
corruptions America, the hope OF
all free men, must live on.-Stan-
berry Alderman.

quirement in order to compete for a

understanding, he was not returned
by the float to the judges stand in
time to be considered for prize.
On Thursday evening, in his cos
tune as Uncle Sam he appeared
on the stage at the festival with a
poster bearing the following words:
The nations steel mills are run

In service at st. Paul's on July
in London, the prayers began with
this thanksgiving: "Let us thank
God for the people and culture OF
China, and for their courage and en-
durance in five long years of war. .
DR.. Temple, who has become the
chosen speaker of all the churches
at such services, spoke of China as
; the senior partner in the cause o.
freedom. His words could hardly be
surpassed for their insight into the
spirit of China. "She has learned
the secret of partnership with nature
and fellowship among men as hard
ly any other people under heaven
had learned it," In her days of iso-
lation she had shown "a peaceful
dignity and unruffled wisdom
which rebuked our restless avarice
and our hasty superficialism.'
