Timothy 5:22 Lesson subverts and Scripture texts sc lected and copyrighted h> Internationa Council of Religious Education: used b; permission. The importance of t!ie home 3 the divinely appointed center of al human life has always made it i special target of Satan. That on oiaugiii- ui me power 01 nen is ap parently redoubled in our day Books, ploys, movies, magazines all contribute their filthy elforts t break down all sense of moral re sponsibility. Sex is magnified, anc riot in any useful or normal sense but rather for the stimulating of un holy desires and purposes, th breaking cown <Christian stand nrds of living and the ultimate pros litulion cf the most sacred of al human relationships to a leve cf which animnls might well b ashamed. The lesson of todoy should b< 'uoghi. with care onn tact, out ais> with a holy baldness and a plain ness that will make it effective fo God and for our homes. We begii with a ward which is little spoken while far too often the sin for whicl it stands is practiced and tolerated 1, Adttltery ? a Grievous Sii (Exori. 20:14; Matt. 5:27, 23). First, let us note that any viola tion of the divine plan for the mar tiaK^ one man una ont; woman in loving communion for the found ing and maintenance of the home is a direct violation of the law o God. It is also a violation of th< law of man. It brings serious re suits in the destruction of the home and in the ruin of individual lifephysical, moral, and spiritual. The words of Jesus broaden th< interpretation of the commandmen to cover .;!i sexual impurity it thought, word, r deed. While w< recognise that the outward act o immorality carries with it con sequences both in the iife of the in dividual and these with and agains whom he sins, which do not follow upon the thought of evil without tht act, yet it is true that essentially In is guilty who had it in his heart tc do the wicked thing even though c sense of prudence or circumstance: hindered its execution. We neec clean hearts and minds if there art to be clean fives. II. Marriage?a Divine (nstitntior (Mark 10:G-8). As the proper background for t discussion of divorce our Lore makes clear that marriage was or dained by God, and that it involve: a holy union of two individual: which makes them one. All thost who look forward to inarriagt should realize that it is not a casua thing, or a merely temporary lega contract. It is a union for life?b? it for better or worse, in sicknes: or health, in prosperity or adversity All who are married should there fore highly regard their sacrec vows. III. Divorce Limited and Rcmar riagc Forbidden (Mark 10:2-1, 10 12). This passage, and other scrip tures, teach that divorce is not per mitted except on the ground of adul tery (Matt. 5:32), and that any re marriage involves the parties in th< guilt of adultery. Aware as we art of the laxness of some branches o: the church in such matters, and tht almost entire lack of standards ii the worid, we cannot but presen the plain teachings of our Lord ant urge every reader to follow th< commandment of God's Word. There can be no question that di vorce is a major evil in our day The writer has been astonished t< find one family after another in hi: own respectable neighborhoot where the children bear one nami and their mothers another, or then are two "sets" of children in oni familv with different Clirnamea Ka cause of divorce arid remarriage In some cases he knows of the fa thers of children coming to see thei offspring at the home of the seconi husband. What utter confusion sucl situations must create in the mind: and hearts of the boys and girls! IV. Children?the Gift of God ti the Home (Mark 10:13-16). How relieved we are to leave thi consideration of such sordid, evei though vitally important, matter: as moral impurity and divorce, am turn to the beautiful picture o Christ blessing the little children It would appear that Jesus desirei to turn the thought of His hearer from the negative "thou shalt not' to the positive solution of the horn problemChildren make the home. The; are God's benediction upon thi marriage of man and woman. Sai and disillusioned will be the mei and women who make themselve childless, hoping thus for more com fort and pleasure, ine road to hap pmess aocs noi go tnat way. Th> soft and tender baby hand has lei many a couple to full happiness, ani the joy of watching our children grow into manhood and woman hood cannot be evaluated in th mint of gold or earthly pleasures. iRY THURSDAY?BOONE, N.
