What Makes a Town
Worth Saving?

NLAS, nobody did care. One
"A hundred and more years went
by, and Jerusalem came close to
its end. But nobody thought that
disaster could strike. The belief
had grown in every ones mind
that the Temple of the Lord would
forever insure the safety of the
city in which it stood.
But a young prophet, Jere-
miah, preached a sermon on
the same theme as Isaiah'S
(Jer. y It is not the temple
that will save you, it is not
church attendance that will
bring you the favor of God.
AS the men Of Jerusalem looked
back to the great days of Moses,
they thought Of the sacrifices and
offerings, the tabernacle and the
rituals and all the pageantry and
paraphernalia of picturesque
religion. as the great thing that
God had given them.
But God remembered it other
wise. Jeremiah even says with
understandable exaggeration) that
God had not said a word about
sacrifices and offerings; the Ten
Commandments, with all they i'm
piled, were the main thing.
What God looks for, back Of all
our church attendance and Bible
reading, is Justice between a man
and his neighbor." A place where
that can be found is a good place.

Isaiah tells them that, too, in

we are not killers, we don't lay

to explain: seek judgment lie.

TT IS a temptation as old as

wall and life on the other. But
the prophets showed, once and for
Arizona sun., 1949-10-07

with the country.
Isaiah's diagnosis was shocking:
Religion is our principal trouble.
God is tired of it. What? The pious
people would exclaim. Look at the
crowds in the Temple every holy
day! Listen to all the prayers
count the number of tithers. Il
anything is wrong with our country
it can't be religion! But religion it
was.

Why God Was Tired

X CATHOLIC priest would shock
IA everybody should he call Vat
lean City "Hell's Half Acre. "
Isaiah shocked his fellow citizens
by calling Jerusalem "Sodom and
Gomorrah." Those cities were the
worst places the Hebrews had ever
heard of.
They were so bad the Lord
had to destroy them by fire
not 10 good people could be
found there. The prophet fol-
lows up that first shock by an
other. Every single expression
Of organized religion comes
under the prophets lash.
