hometown feeling your friends
envied you your fine position and
success.
You were wrong, they did not
envy you one thing. They felt
sorry that you could not be your

yourself you chose to select a few
friends and snub the vast majority,
and, so, it was hard to realize that
you have to build your bridges as
you go along.
No one who feels himself better

through life a happy person.
In this life it is give and take,

show for friends, the more they

Free From Slavery, Freed To Serve

The question was settled there
in that great Council But it kept
coming up. and Paul had to write
to the Romans and to the Galatians
explaining it all over again. It
comes up In our time in many
ways. What do have to do before
God will come to my rescue (for
that is what "save" means) There
are two common wrong answers.
One is that every single law In the
Old Testament is binding on each
Christian. It is keeping these laws
that saves us. really. In short, God
saves us provided we are good
enough. The other wrong answer
is that God saves us regardless,
and then since he has saved us we
can go do as we please. We can't
possibly go wrong if we have been
saved. The right answer is always
this: God saves us because he is
good. not because we are; and hav-
ing been saved, keeping his laws is
then a joyous token Of our graf
itude. Freed from slavery, we are
set free to serve. Gods grace can
never be earned, it can only be
taken-by faith.

The Question Is An Old One

The first Christians held their
first great convention or conference
to decide on this question The way
the problem came up with them
was this: The first Christian
churches, you remember, were
made up almost exclusively of
Jews. They We're brought up on
their Scriptures, our Old Tesla
ment, and they took it seriously
as the Word of God. They found
in it not a mere Ten Command
ments, but at least Six Hundred
Thirteen Commandments. 1t may
have been chore to try to abide
by all these laws spread out over
pages and pages of Leviticus, Num-
bers and Deuteronomy. But there
the laws were, and conscientious
exJews who became Christians
brought these laws right along
with them.
Now when Paul and Barnabas
went out on their evangelistic
tours, the churches they started
were made up, for the most part,
of non-Jews, and most of those
people knew nothing whatever
about the Old Testament
The Jerusalem Christians kept
sending messengers to these new
Gentle Christian groups, telling
them they really were not Chris
tians at all, they hadn't been saved
because they hadn't kept the law
of God in every detail. The Gentle
Christians said, Oh, but we are free
from the law. The Jewish Chris
tians said, No man is ever free from
the law. So there at last had to be
a great church meeting to decide
who was right. There was high
debate, and finally an agreement.
Scholars do not fully understand
the terms of the agreement, which
was sent out as a decree to all
churches. But one thing is clear:
the decision went against the Jeru
salem church. The question really
was: What do you have to do to be
a Christian? What do you have to
do to be saved? The Jerusalem
church had been saying, You have
to do great deal to be saved. You
have to be an avowed keeper of
the Law before God will even con-
slider saving you. But the apostles
had a higher view. Essentially it
was this: Every one who is saved,
is saved by grace-that is. by a
free act of Gods loving will.

Disappointed

FAILURE of Prince Edward parents to
make application to Southside Schools,
Inc, SO that schools can be organized for
the Negro children of the county this year
is disappointing. We appreciate the fact
that one term has almost passed and those
now in schools elsewhere would not be
interested in disrupting present arrange
ments From such information as we can
gather we believe large number of those
who really desire an education are now
receiving instruction. But it is desirable
that all Of the children have the opportunity
of an education. which prompted the
group of sincere citizens of the County to
form an organization and make the offer.
It appears now that there will not be suf-
ficient application to make classes pos
sible.
We need not express our opinion Of the
reasons for the failure of the citizens to
accept the offer made by Southside Schools,
Inc. Many know their reasons and the
balance possibly have opinions Suffice it
to say that the offer was made in good
faith in seeking solution of the school
situation in Prince Edward County
1t would be our hope that the Southslde
Schools, Inc, will remain in existence for
such aid as may be practical in the future.
We believe we express the sincere feeling
of the vast majority of the white citizens
when we say we are disappointed.
