And some are fierce and fatal
with murderous desire;
And some are mean and craven,
revengeful. selfish, slow.
They hurt the man that holds them
more than they hurt his foe.
And yet there is a hatred that
purif1es the heart.
The anger of the better against
the baser part,
Against the false and the wicked,
against the tyrant's sword,
Against the enemies Of love, and
all that hates the Lord.
o cleansing Indignation, o fsme
of righteous wrath.
Give me q soul to see thee and
follow in thy path!
Save me from selfish virtue, arm
me for fearless tight,
And give me strength to carry on,
a soldier of the Right"
Jesus had no word of reproach
even on the cross, for those who
dealt foully with Himself; only
prayers for pardon. But His anger
famed forth against the powerful
ones who oppressed the people
and made mock of pure religion
If we have never learned when and
how to grow angry, we have never
fully learned the mind of Christ!
Behind the Scenes.
Students of the Bible all agree
that the direct and immediate cause
of the crucifixion of Christ was the
opposition and intrigues OF the
powerful temple group whom He
had steadfastly opposed. The dras-
tic cleansing of the temple was the
final and determinative occasion
This reckless Reformatory could not
be allowed to live.
SIMILARLY. it has been the power
influence of vested interests that
have kept the Asiatic and African
peoples in subjection, for purposes
of exploitation; and it has been big
business" that has been responsible
for many of the social injustices
Of our land and era. But their
garish day is at its sunset.
MY church is at the bingo stage
said an editor friend In New York,
with wry smile. as he explained
to me why he, a good Catholic, does
not attend church. Protestant and
Catholic churches alike are STOPPING
to the introduction of worldly, and
even unlawful, devices for the rails
ing Of money. They all need to
study afresh this story of the cleans
Of the temple. and of the Scripture s
clear teaching concerning the
sanctity of Gods house.
AS a traveller who visits many
churches in the course Of a year,
I confess that I am appalled, by
the informality and chatter that
precede worship in some congrega-
tions. To two talkative women that
knew I once leaned over and
quoted. "The Lord is in His holy
temple; let all the earth keep silence
before Him" I have turned away
from the doors of some churches.
because of the irreverent tumult
within. And the sanctuary that
stages a minstrel show during the
week can scarcely keep memories
of it from intruding upon the
peoples minds during Sundays
worship.
In the background of the present
world struggle against oppression
and exploitation stands the lurni-
nous truth of the sanctity Of the
house Of worship.
