EVERYDAY
RELIGION
MANY KINDS OF FREEDOM
By Rev. Robert w. Turner

MAN NAND0 UT MEDIUM
AS Free Citizens of America,
both young and old, singly and as
groups in family, town, city or
state, we must seek to learn day
by day what it means to be free in
the Gland of the free" and brave
in the Gland of the brave"
For many persons and groups,
freedom seems to mean the right
to "do what / please when please
to do it." This works quite well
when the individual or group who
says this is wise, loving, thought
full, kind, gentle and patient. Such
people actually need no officers to
enforce the law of good because
they have that law written in their
hearts and minds to do it. They
actually find their joy and pleasure
in being good and seeking the good
of their neighbor. To such people,
doing good" comes naturally be-
cause they live by the law of good
which is written in their hearts;
they have learned from God, in
Christ, that cit is more blessed to
give than to receive" 1t is quite OBJ
vious that this spinning ball called
earth would be a Paradise if each
person living on it were living by
this law.
The first question which each
person living in free land must
ask himself is. "Am l living in such
way that the freedom of other
people around me is fostered and
promoted?" If not, then l am not
doing the part of a free man in a
free land; in other words, l am
living in a free land and enjoying
the benefits of freedom, but doing
nothing or too little to maintain
this freedom. We may even find
that we are trusting in others and
not in God; we may have made
freedom our god, rather than the
true God Who makes the freedom
of His people possible.
Each generation of young people
must learn that the freedom of all
men is rooted and grounded in the
worship and service of the God
who made and sustains the universe
with all its creatures. Without Him
as our Ruler and Guide there can
be only anarchy among the chill
dren of men with the lions feeding
upon the lambs as in the realm of
nature.
Man is created to be the master
and steward of the earth and it's
bounty but he must always learn
the principles of master-ship and
stewardship from his Creator if he
would have the earth to be fair and
all men wise and good. It was the
wise, and formerly disobedient,
saint Augustine who said, "Love
God and do as you pleased" How
ever, he had learned from. Jesus
Christ that doing what pleased
Augustine was not what pleased
God and his fellow men. May God
grant us grace and strength to do
likewise.

learned that death sometimes
struck during lawful maneuver.
For example: ten drivers were in

their vehicles skidded, one when
