PAGE FOUR SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON THE CHURCH AND THE SOCIAL ORDER International Sunday School Lesson for December 13, 1942 Golden Text: “Ye art ~ie salt of the earth .... Ye are the light of the wcrW”—Matthew 5:13-14. Lesson Text: Matthew 5:13-lti; Mark 2:13-17; 1 Peter 2:13-17 In our discussion of the lesson for last week, we called attention to the comparisons which Jesus used in con nection with his followers. A repe tition is not anvss. Surely, Chris- j tians should have it impressed on j their hearts and minds that they do j owe something to their community and have a responsibility as followers \ of Jesus Christ to make their contri bution felt in the uplifting and im provement of the moral tone of the place in which they live. ' Salt was as necessary in the time of Jesus as it is today. In those days, when artificial refrigeration was unknown, salt was a very neces sary element in the preservation of foods, especially i.eats. Salt was used in sacrif ce by tne Jews. Greeks j and Romans, and was an emblem of purity and of the influence of a holy i life upon others. Salt saves from! corruption, and, by the use of this ( comparison, Jesus was and is re minding his disciples that it is their duty to keep others from moral cor- : ruption. However, we are also reminded that there may come a time when, if u"duly exposed, salt can lose its value—its savor—-and then it becomes worthless, only fit to be cast out and trodden under the feet of men. The warning here - hat Christians, the cm it of the Pi tn. the saving element in a corrupt erivironmeot. must al ways endeavor to keep themselves j “unsDotted from the world” in order t 1 at they may not lose their helpful influence. “Re ye separate,” we are commanded. This does not mean that Christians should cloister them j?elvpn, away from the teeming multi tudes that need their helpful minis trv, but that, hr the world, they should exert a saving influence. Christians are also comparable to ] j>, light—something that brings bright- ; ress into dark places. What kind of i a light a?® 6 " you? If we could re- 1 member always that God is the source of all power and that, through praver, we can link up our lives with chat great powerhouse 1 wonder if we would he such dim rights to the world, when there's so much power j to be had only for the asking? What is the duty of the church I toward the G tate? Certainly, all . thoughtful pe >i/le agree that it is right and pi ope’ at the two he di vided, but has th» hurch any respon sibility toward the state, and vice versa? Jesus taught that his follow ers had social as well as spiritual re sponsibirties. He recognized the ob ligations due government. The real Christ an accepts: and fulfills his re-, sponsibilties to the state. These re sponsihilties involve, among other things, his obedience to the laws of his government, payment of taxes requir- BLOOI) - TESTED BABY CHICKS Barred Rocks, Reds or Crosses, $10.50 per 100, postpaid. 300 for $30.00 rash with order, please, or SI.OO per 100 will book your order for winter or spring delivery when wanted.

The church, through its pulpit and through its leaders, has a duty to perform in educating and urging its members to take their rightful place in the state. This great nation of ours has great need of Christian j statesmen and less need of grasping: ! politicians. Men and women, actuat-! ed by Christian principles, should not j hesitate to* sacrifice personal prefer-1 ences but should offer their services' to their country. As Charles E. j I Jefferson declared: “It is because j | Christian citizens have in large num bers neglected their political duties j that political scandals have been so j appalling. If good men refuse to j i vote, bad men will be on hand. If el- : ders and deacons refuse to run for j office, the ward heelers will dominate \ the political world. Our citizenship is rooted in heaven; therefore, we , must be sure to vote. If politics are; dirty, why not do our part in making them clean? This same principle ap plies to all our duties and privileges as citizens."
