ECHOES OF THE BLUE RIDGE
“Suppose Everyone Were
Just Like You?” He Asks
BY HERMAN W. WILCOX
PROVOCATIVE QUESTIONS
Before you make up your mind
study these questions very care
fully. Suppose everyone else
were just like you—what kind
of a world would this be? What
if everyone did as you do? What
would come of us? Suppose
everyone else in our community
took the same
interest
felt the same
responsibility
bore the same
burden you do
for civic and
community af
f a i r s-w hat
would become
of our city?
ABOUT THE HOME
What would happen to mar
riage, the home, the coming
generation if every father were
your kind of a father? What
if everyone were as humble
as you—as selfless as you—
as kind as you—as patient as
you—as thoughful as you? What
if all men were your kind of
a Christian—with your kind of
dedication—your commitment—
your devotion? What would hap
pen to the Church if all men
supported it as you do ... If
all men honored the Lord in
their homes—their jobs—their
social lives the way you do?
What if your boy grows up to
be just like you? He may! You
owe it to him to be the kind
of man whose example is safe
to follow! You see we all tend
to “pass the buck” to “let
George do it.’*
Sometimes occasions arise
when a layman does not under
stand the will of his leaders,
and may speak out too hastily
in condemnation erf their pastors
or Church leaders. For ex
ample, a pastor felt it was
necessary to write his member
ship a letter to boost their in
terest in stewardship. Immedi
ately the reply came from one
of his members, “According
to your concept, Christianity
is just one continual give, give,
give. The first impulse of the
pastor was to answer the letter
immediately with a devastating
oratory of words. But as he
thought and prayed about it,
he found himself thinking, that

man is dead right! Christianity
is one continual give.
So the pastor wrote something
like the following: “Dear
Friend: Thank you for the finest
definition of Christianity that
I have ever seen. Christianity
is one constant give, give, give.
That is the way it all began.
God gave. He gave His only
Son. The Son gave. He gave
His life upon the cross for our
sins.
“His disciples gave. They
left all to tell the news. Most of
them died a martyr’s death.
Christianity has prospered to
the extent Christians have
learned to give, give, give.**
Who are we to judge?
