MEET MIR. CAIAPHAS
"SOme pillars of the church are
only pillar-Shams"

Mr.. and Mrs. Chronicle" reader,
allow me to introduce to you Mr..
H. P Caiaphas.
pleased to meet you"-are you
inclined to say that? Better not AS
you learn to know this man Gaia
phas bit better you might be con-
siderably embarrassed to find that
there are sinister phases of his life
and his religion that are discon-
certingly like your own.
But who is Mr.. Caiaphas? w
meet him anew each year at the
Lenten season for he plays a major
role in the tragic drama of Christs
suffering and death. Perhaps we
can identify him further by stating
that his initials H. P. stand for the
words high priest. That was his Of
flee and as high priest he was the
highest official Of the j e w n
church at that time. Quite natural
ly he delighted in the prestige and
the emoluments this office brought
him, and when the ascendancy of
Christ and His teachings threaten
ed the perpetuation Of that office
and its gains, CaiaphaS was chief
ly instrumental in His crucifixiOn.
l can readily imagine this Gaia
phas officiating at service in the
Temple. See how he struts! Garb-
ed in the elaborate vestments of his
priestly office with the twelve
jewelled Urim and Thummim
proudly worn as a symbol Of his
rank, he chants the stately ritual
prescribed by his church. But he
is not really religious man. Me-
ticulously careful to observe a /
the forms and accounterments of
worship service his heart is not
touched by them. 1t is not really
religion at adjust words, words,
words
This thought is aptly illustrated
by tale that is centuries old. A
certain man-so the story runs
dreamed that an angel touched his
shoulder with magic wand and
transported him to a great cathe-
dral where a service was in pro-
gress. Here he stood in silent awe,
puzzled by the strangeness of it
all He saw an organist vigorously
playing the keys, but not sound
was heard. He saw the liturgist
and all the people open their
mouths to sing and to pray, but
not word reached his ears. He
turned to his angel guide in Won
derment. Anticipating his question
the angel said: You hear nothing
because there is nothing to hear.
These people are not engaged in

Rev. E. John Dyer, Rec

Disciplined way OF Christian Liv-
ing
We would all agree that we need
Lent to remind us that the Chris
tlan way of life is not do-as-you-
please, but a disciplined way of
living. We need a season in which
to intensity our prayers, to really
work at our religion, and to strive
earnestly TO walk in the Christian
way.
Vagueness is the enemy of Chris
tlan life; so to help you to be
definite about your observance of
Lent, | suggest this simple, mini
mum, seven-point rule:
l. To be more faithful in per-
sonal prayer and reading of h e
Bible.
2. To receive the Holy Commun-
ion each week after careful prep
aration the night before
3. To share regularly in the
work of the Church
4. To mark Ash Wednesday and
Good Friday as Fast Days, and to
observe all the Fridays and Ember
Days by abstinence and a special
act of devotion
5. To make a true effort to put
aside some unnecessary indul-
gence or pleasure in order to have
more time for the things of the
spirit.
6. To make a self-denial and put
the cost of it in the Easter Offer
ing
7. To read at least one Lenten
book
This year, let us all, clergy and
laity alike, observe Lent m n e
strictly than ever before. Then our
religion will become greater
power in our lives; and our church
will be stirred with new zeal to
do its work for God.
