Protestants Asking
For $950,00 To Help
Feed Hungry People
Protestants will launch a spe
cial appeal for $950,000 during

nance the 1964 Share Our Sub
stance Program, through which
more than 10 million of the
world’s hungry will receive life
sustaining ,U. S. food stocks.

peal is announced by Canon Al
mon R. Pepper, chairman of the
executive committee of Church
World Service, National Council
of Churchec, sDn-sort
program on behalf of major .
American Protestant and Eastern
Orthodox denominations.
Canon Pepper also explained
the change in the designation ol'
the SOS appeal this year to
“fehare Our Substance" from the
former ‘‘Share Our Surplus.”
“The change reflects a desire
to better express the spirit of
sharing between the American
Christian community and our
friends abroad," said Canon
Pepper.
Scheduled for distribution in
1964 are 446,564,000 pounds of
SOS foods destined for the needy
in / frica, Asia, Latin America,

ing oils.

seas program of the churches are

ernment commodities in excess
of amounts first set aside to re
lieve need in the United States.

This Is The Life
By DONALD R. THOMAS
AW. , _r r j
A young man went around tell
ing the people to repent- of their
sins. He said, "You will perish,"
but they would not listen. He
had to watch their wicked acts
and hear their wicked words.
They kept on sinning and he
kept right on telling them God’s
words. They will say, “I want
to live and have fun before I
die.” Bother, a saved person is
the most happy person. Why do
they sin and keep on? Because
i they don’t want to give up their
fast living, drinking, giving in
marriage nor the lust of the
flesh. This young man I was
talking about was Noah. The
ark saved him and his family.
Today, Christ Jesus will save
you and all those who accept
Him. Do it today, brother, be
fore it’s too late.
The Bible says: “But Noah
found grace in the eyes of the
Lord.” —Genesis 6:8.

"... Fate bestows its re - :,
wards on those who put
themselves in proper atti- ,
tude to receive them.”

Sunday School Lesson
an APPEAL FOR HARMONY
International Sim day School t
Lesspn for October 6, 1963
Memory Selection: “We are fel
low workmen for. God.”
(I Corinthians 3:9)
Lesson Text: I Corinthians 1-4.
This study of three of Paul’s
Letters emphasizes values for
church life and personal Chris
tian living.
Today we study the question:
What are some causes for the
divisions among Christians to
day? Upon a closer study, we
find that the divisions among
Christians today are not" too dif
ferent from the divisions among
Christians in the days of Paul
the Apostle. To compare, there
fore, we study Paul’s epistles to
the churches, written during his
term of imprisonment.
Corinth was not the best place
to find a church. All the vices
of human nature ran rampant in
that city, aided and abetted by
hurm/n weaknesses, wealth and
luxury. Even religion in Cor
inth was corrupt. At the Tem
ple of Aphrodite, the goddess of
love, there were a thousand
priestesses who performed their
rites as sacred prostitutes. A
committee on church location
would not have been likely to
select Corinth as a place to or
ganize a promising mission. But
the church must not retreat
from the world— it has a mis
sion to save the worid. How
well Paul knew that! And he
realized that in Corinth the
Christian concept of life in Jesus
Christ was sorely needed. To
him it was a challenge, and he
answered that challenge nobly. 1
Actually, however, the real
threat of evil in Corinth was
not the danger zone. The seri
ous dangers were within the fel
lowship of the church. Con- 1

courts, overindulgence at the
Lord’s Supper until it beetune a
feast instead of a sacrament, the
dangers in Christian freedom
(so-called) and anxiety concern
ing life after death, all these
were the crux of the matter.
While the precise forms of
these dangers may vary in our
time, their general character is
too well known . . . for comfort.
But it is*to the everlasting credit
both of the church at Corinth
and Paul himself that he ap
parently writes in response to
questions raised by the people.
It is one thing for trouble to
be pointed out by those, outside
the church; it is far more hope
ful when the issues are seen by
those within.
First of all, Paul faces the ser
ious split Which had begun in
the Church at Corinth; various
groups had chosen up sides, each
with a champion. “I. acknowl
edge Paul." “I follow Apollos.”
“I am impressed with Peter.”
“I belong to Christ.” The stage
was set for a real tug-of-war.
And while some of the trouble
at Corinth may be unusual in
the church today, this particular
bug-a-boo too often exists. There
is the big-paying church “Bo«”
who, gets rid of the preacher be
cause his viewpoints do not
coincide with his. Or there is
the headstrong preacher who
tries to dictate rather than guide
and patiently instruct the con
gregation. Or it may be the
member of the official board
who disregards the regulation
against cocktails ... all these,
where they exist, constitute a
danger to the church.
To these divisive factions Paul
replied with classic simplicity:
“I planted; Apollos watered, but
God gave the growth.” But one
thing at least could be said
about the rivalry at Corinth:
the leaders were Worthy men,
and vision was not due' to petty
motivations. The differences that
existed were, for the most part,

We are so tiny in the vastness of space, so drab in the grandeur of
nature. Why does God care about each one of us?
This question lias always plagued the mind of man. It will probably
never be completely answered to his satisfaction until he sees and believes
the evidence of man’s importance to God: Thou hast Made him a little
lower than the angels.
It remained for Jesus Christ to reveal the love of God. Sunday ■ — N
World Communion Day Christians will unite in the sacrament which
is their richest experience of the glory and honor God has given.
The world over, men will rejoice in the Divine Love, so far-reaching,
that God gave His Son for humanity.
