SUNDAY SCHOOL ] [ LESSON - j ConrdT Hom P. 9, B—SortteiTT we acknowledge the fact >that' Christmas has come true in his- j tory, we. would do well to pause | and ask ourselves this question: : Has it come true in our hearts?, Does Christmas work his salva tion in us and through us? If not, how can he? ' Such ques- j tions carry us far beyond the gold and glitter of Christmas,. into the deeper meaning of the occasion. Salvation through Christ waits upon our personal choice and ac- J tion. The truth of Christmas is relevant only as we lay claim' upon it. This was the sharp and probing requirement laid Nicodemus by Jesus, as repMfel in John 3:1-6. And nothing has changed .to subtract from the fundamental truth of what Jesus said to Nicodemus. Now, as then, we begin life on earth when we are born in our fleshy. guise. But also, now, as then, the second and all-important step 1 into life awaits our choice and I action. This is the step of ac cepting Christ as our Lord and! Saviour. But how do we enter) the new life of deliverance I through Christ, * / m / / m /I a Jr .

So long as we I, live at peace with evil and ’jerroi 1 , whether social or personal,* ) all doors are shut and locked j against the salvation Christ i would bring. Salvation begins 1 when we admit that we are j sinners in need of a Saviour, j We may not be particularly fond !of the word "sinner” applied to •ourselves; we much prefer to 1 think of it as a term applied to others! Such is our innate vanity. We may despise the j 1 word ‘ “sin,” but we must per- 1 force admit that it describes, something that is' vgry true and I j realA We have but to glance at | ' ourfßewspapers and know that] | sinfMOs exist; if we are con- 1 pletpy honest with j i can -'iook within and jj| W the i fihith about sin in wrselves.

This, and much, much, more, gives us reason to know <BB ; that the word “sinner” can only , too easily be applied to us and [ deservedly so. *1 are sinners, we 1 need a‘Saviour. We must have ; help from above and beyond— , regardless of what our pride and • our ego tells us. Thus begins salvation —when we look" upon Christ and confess our need. But , mere confession of need is not enough; we must act upon that need. Etfery day we must say “No” to evil and “Yes” to the ■ good we see in Christ Every i day we must fegist anew our , tendency toward rebellion, and : surrender anew our soul to God. j Through worship, through daily , work in which we seek to do j God’s will, and in those especial j tasks which meet the needs of jour brothers in love, justice, and j truth, Christ enters, renews, and , recreates us.
