LOYALTY TO CHRIST

GOLDEN TEXT-What things were gain

Philippians 81.
Loyalty is undoubtedly one of the
finest traits of mankind. Because
of its strength, its fidelity to duty,
etc, shreWd men have learned to
play upon mans loyalty, making it
serve evil and ignoble ends. I'm

the interest of man by fair means
or foul. have demanded blind loyal
ty. Even in the carrying out of
crime there has been the suggestion
that there is some kind of a code
Of homer, a loyalty among thieves.
All this does not change the fact
that there is a high and holy i'm
pulse in man to stand true to the
right; and in the Christian, to be
found ever loyal to the Christ, whose
we are and whom we serve. Faith
in Christ (our lesson of last week.
is rightly followed by loyalty to Him.
1t manifcsts itself in three ways.

Without obedience there is no use
talking about loyalty When Jesus

calling of taX-gatherer ". 40, but
he was ready for the call of Jesus.
Notice also that following Christ
carries with it the privilege and OBJ
legation Git is BOTH of making Him
known to our friends. Matthew did
not wait until he had made new
circle of friends and then invite
them to a feast. He celebrated his
entrance upon the new life of faith
by a friendly and effective testimony
before his friends who were publ
cans and sinners.
Notice the words of Jesus in verse
II. 1t is not good people, satisfied
in their own seIf-righteousness, who
get to heaven. 1t is sinners, saved

Chapter I

THE man left stoksund, more than A than halfway up the west coast of Norwalk, at nightfall, and long past midnight, after the lonely roads, came staggering up Co his cousins farm near the little fishing village of Trollness. With the last of his strength he crept across the court and tossed Q handful of neb- bles up at the bedroom window.
 Knut osterholEh, the farmer, woke out of uneasy sleep, threw up the blind with . chatter, and saw the man in the bright moon- light, standing down in the cob- bled yard, his hands burned black and his shoulder bloody under a torn shirt. The barn and the biz storehouse, with gables like ghosts, threw their silver shadows all around him.
 Quickly the farmer slipped on his clothes and went out to hide him in the hayloft of the barn. Then he llmped of in Q great hurry toward Trollness to rouse the only doctor in town. It was over O mile to the little cluster of buildings at the edge of the fjord. Twice he just slipped past body of troops evidently search. ing the small, thatched houses down the crooked side streets.
 It was after 3 when he and the plump doctor (who wore e fur- lined jacket and a bearskin cap, and kept rubbing his hands to- gether against the cold) climbed back Up into the dry loft where the visitor was lying in the straw. By furtive candlelight they ban- daged him, fed him hot coffee, and heard snatches of his story. All three of them in that hour had the same thought. For i7 months the enemy had been in Norway, and now. for the first time, they had a promise of ac- tion. The man, whose name was Sverre Hammer, fell asleep, and Osterholm and the doctor sat and listened to his quiet breathing.
 After a long while the east be-
