PaaUr Marshy MftMM OraU Out Of Faea* In 11 Peter 1:1 we find these words. But be that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot aee afar off. and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sin*". The things to be remembered are the seven graces of the Chris tian (aith which torm a unity. I Without a knowledge of these graces il is impossible to become a Christian, to remain a Chris-! flan, or to grow into maturity as ? child of God Since these things are so crucial in our Christian experience, and since we are so inclined to forge* them, it is rifUit nulit that we be reminded over and over again abou' the graces faith, virtue, knowledge, tem perance. patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and charity. Sometimes it may seem that the preacher and the church are say ing the same things repeatedly, but this U the only way to keep tbe Christian takh alive Our me mories play tricks on us. We re member the hurts inflicted upon us. but we I or gel the favors and blessings bestowed on u? by friends and by God Himself it it so easy to lorgei the pit from which we have been lifted: the bottom rung ol the ladder from which we have climbed: the eternal things of our history to which our faith and lives are anchored. Somehow we must be aroused to remember or else our faith will become weak, and we will become the victims of heresy and degeneration. So much of our lives are out of focus because we do not have the right perspectives. The poet Gray has said that distance lends enchantment to the view. To ap preciate the truth of this we must have the proper focus on Hie. Distance also creates indistinct ness. delusion, and deception. Dis tance can also shut out beauty, iharmony. and meaning. The per ison who has the greatest percep tion of life is the person who is in the middle of it. living at his best. I sincerely wish that we could cram more life into our years just as we have been able to add more years to our life. As we withdraw from life we lose the meaning of sight and sound and purpose Much of our haziness about lite is due to the fact that we are out of focus with life We are out of focus with life because we lacking in l the thirwts which make for spiri jtual discernment Fur instance, |here is a man with whom we dif ; fer. We say that we cannot under 'Stnad him. He is s<> different. Would we not understand him bet .ter if we knew what makes uj iditfer: Too much of our think ing is against others, when real!) it should be against ourselves. A man who was true to his con victions was quite unpoplar with his associates. Such men usually are One day one in the group said to another. ' He is quite a different person when you get to know him" Another man seems very selfish We say that he might as well be out of the world as to he in it. lor all of his thinking and serving is untc himself. This is the way he looks from the distance. But come a little closer to him. Enter lite with him and see his tenderness and concern for all whom he meets: face life with him and you will find that he is much ' better than he appears to be. ! It has been said that half of j the world does not know how the I other half lives This should not jbe. We should know, and God in ?tends that we know. The closei | we draw to humanity the farther we are able u> >ee. and litis farther view enables us to be touched by the tins and priva tion* at (alien man The nearer we advance the better we see. It was the lack of \ision that caused the multitudes to be blind to the person and teachings of Christ. They saw no farther than Bethlehem His birthplace, they saw no farther than his parents or '.be carpenter shop where He labored If the) had drawn closer to Jesus, in faith they could have understood the depth of His love and the truth of His claim. We cannot blame anyone fur enamin ing the Christian faith before em bracing it in his life. Itoe church would profit from such action. Each person has the right of choice in selecting material things. The same is true in the realm of the spiritual. Christ will bear inspection Come 'close enough and not stop, and: you will be drawn to Him. When* ! I get in proper focus with Christ.j I am able to lead a new life: iotherwi.se I am stumbling about ; in moral blindness When I am in focus with Christ. 1 am in Focus with the rest ot the world and with myself. Gavin Claims | j Backing From Demos , CHARLOTTE. N.C. -Re publican candidate Robert Gavin j asserted Tuesday that he has the "hidden support" of many Demo Icrats in his campaign for gover I n?r. ; He attributed this primarily to ! jhis conservative point of view "far lo the right of Terry San-j ford." the Democratic candidate.' ! At a news conference before a jround of appearances here. Gavinl claimed that unnamed prominent' ! Democrats in IS unnamed eastern (North Carolina counties had| pledged him their support. He de-; jclined to identify them because "a. | lot of Democrats want to keep! |their identity as Democrats lo cally." The GOP standard-bearer ap pealed to a "Citizens for Gavin" 1 movement designed to attract vot ers across party lines to the Re publican camp To further this , movement, he has borrowed Jesse ? Page, a Charlotte businessman ? jwho headed the 1956 "Citizens for . Eisenhower" movement that fell ? only 15.000 votes short of tkliver j|ing North Carolina to Eisenhower . This "citizens" movement was . j begun in a series of newspaper ^advertisements long before Gavin ?arrived at the City Club for the! , news conference. Tuesday's adver tisement. for example, made no; mention of Gavin's Republican af ' 'filiation, identifying him only as! ;a conservative.
