This Is The Life"
By DONALD R. THOMAS
THE GREATEST DEBT
How many of you that 1 sane
reading this owes bills? Bills
cab pile up when sickness is rn
the family. 1 guess a poor per
son has to go in debt to have
anything and debts are jusj, a
part of life. Did you know your
boss and you owe each other?
Yes. you owe him a good day’s
work and he owes you a goad
day’s pay. I owe my folks a
debt I’ll never be able to pay.
My greatest debt is to Christ
Jesus, who died on the cross for
r me. He took my place, He was
pure and I am a wretched sinner.
I was lost and headed for Hell
until h e took charge. I am saved
and I am washed in His bloqd
because His blood was shed for
me. I am trying to point souls
to Christ because I love you and
want „to be a soul winner for
Jesus. Jesus is pointing His
finger at you. What are yyu do
ing for Christ or are you for
Satan ?
The Bible says: “Go, sell' the
oil, and pay thy debt, and live
thou and thy children of the
rest.”—ll Kings 4:7.

LABORERS IN THE KINGDOM
International Sunday School
Lesson for March 7
Memory Selection: “The Son of
man came not to be served but to
serve, and to give his life as a
ransom for many.” Matthew
20:28
Lesson Text: Matthew 19
through 20.
Today, in the parable of the
householder and the laborers in
his vineyard, we apply ourselves
to the question: What are the
differences between God’s stand
ards and ours?
We have already observed, in
past lessons, that Jesus’ teachings
at this time revealed a new sense
of urgency, for the time of his
death was fast approaching anil
he was concentrating 'the greater
part of his efforts in, preparing
the DiSciples to carry dn his work
after he had departed this i ar’.h
ly life, v . . . ;
Therefore, he met any questions
with a parable, giving them food
for thought as they examined his
words to find tile hidden meaning
and the beliefs and rules for liv
ing that h ( * was thus laying down
for their guidance.
Tile pfarttular parable we are
studying today—that of the owner
of the vineyard and his treatment
of those who labored for him —
contains much guidance for us to
day as w§ labor in his cause.
From it we learn that God's
.love and His Grace are extended
to everyone-—the late-oomers as
well as those who labored for Him
from the beginning. The vine
yard owner kept to bis bargain
with the first laborers he hired;
lie paid them one denarius a day—
the amount for which they were
hired. But, in his mercy, he also
paid those who worked only half
a day, or even only an hour, one
denarius apiece, for they were
willing to work; indeed, they had
stood around tiie marketplace
waiting to lie put to work. W >tli
these he made no hard-and-fast
contract of payment, lie only

contracted to pay what was “just.”
Perhaps their act of faith, in go
ing to work for him on bis word
had something to do with his gen
erosity.
God has promised us our just
rewards for laboring in His
cause. But, over and over again,
throughout tie Bible, it has be n
reiterated that all a sinner needs
In do to be saved is to repent,
and lie will be admitted to the
Kingdom. Should we, therefore,
having devoted years of service
In Him, be jealous of the late
comer who reaps tile same bene
fits as we, only having perhaps
labored a year and a day in God’s
service ? Certainly we will not
admit jealousy to our heart if we
are true Christians doing our ul
■inost to live up to tile high stand
aids set by our Lord; rather wi
will rejoice that a lost lamb hat
been restored la the fold!
Certainly there is work for all
in God’s vineyard. The man has
not yet been born who can work
long enough, cr hard enough,
diligently enough to merit the re
wards of God. For God does not
pay on the basis of service, bill
of Grace,
In this workaday world of out>
we lend to be materialistic in our
outlook and our approach. W<
measure our work in tern's of
hours expended for dollars and
rents —sometimes, alas, with more
emphasis paired on the dollars
ami cents. There is a ertain sat
isfaction, for those dedicated t.
tludr work, in receiving a pay
check which we know has been
writ and honestly earned. This is
well and good, for as far a.s i!
gui s. But it do ’s net go (pule
far enough. Most of us, w!r>
claim ti: have any intelligence a.
all realize at some time or an
other that there are things which
cannot lie measured by materia l
standards. For us there should
lie- satisfaction in .-" t vf.e, pi. a
suie in giving, joy in the small
(and sometimes not-so-small) sac
rifices we make for our loved
ones - or even a deserving strang
er. For in Uiese tilings wo un

Strange sight? Not really! We're getting used to seeing pictures of our own
earth. We’re getting used to the concept of a universe instead of a u\>rld. We
can believe that the moon’s soon to become a landing place.
Does this familiarity with space does f*ur thrust into the physical un
known make the basic facts of life and death any simpler to us7 Certainly
not! Man is in a peculiar position, today. The more he explore:, the more va»t
he finds what lies ahead of him. The more he learns, the more lie discovers how
infinitely much there is to know.
More than ever before, man realizes how great the hand of Cod has Ix-er
in fashioning this world, this universe, we live in. That’s why people every
where including scientists, astronauts, space pioneers are men of religious
conviction, (it i to church this Sunday, and see for yourself
