I don’t know about you, but I have discovered that I often have a whole lot of the devil in me. Evidently, the Apostle Paul recognized a conflict in his own personal life between the forces of evil and the forces of good. | Paul found himself doing what i he ought not to be doing and not [ doing what he ought to be doing. 1 (Romans 7:18-19).

THE PERIL OF GREED ! i International Sunday School | Lesson for August 5, 1973 ! LESSON TEXT: Exodus 1 20:17; Ecclesiastes 5:10 to i.6:2; Matthew 20:20-28; Luke I \ 12:13-21; Timothy 6:6-10. | This lesson - our final study of the Ten Commandments -- deals with perhaps the most common of all personality faults, and is designed to help the adult Christian develop a sense of stewardship towards their own possessions (both temporal and spiritual) and foster a right-thinking attitude towards . the possessions of others. . The world’s woes began in j the Garden of Eden, when : Adam and Eve coveted that i ’ which was forbidden them by S God. They have grown and ! 'multiplied in the realm of I family and national life as we ] know it today. Marriages --1 that most sacred cornerstone I of civilization - have been I ' broken by those “who covet I their neighbors’ wives” and I the world has been plunged! into numerous wars by jj nations who covet territorial : possessions! In Luke 12:15-21 Jesus. | Himself, takes a firm stand j: against crass materialism. f ' The Christian, therefore, is f i constrained to do likewise. | It has been said that when !i i one gets what he deserves. He deserves what he gets! Greed for material gains all too often blunts the sensibilities of the spirit. Luke 11:13-14 illustrates the self-centered viewpoint as opposed to that which is God-oriented; Christ was speaking to the multitude when he was interrupted by \ the participant in a bitter family dispute. So engrossed was the individual...so obsessed by personal greed...that he failed completely to comprehend Christ’s message to those | assembled before Him! He E was driven to make use of I Christ for deeply personal I reasons, instead of making I himself available to Christ! 1 How many of us are guilty of the same sin? How often are our deeds and thoughts, and speech, punctuated by “I” and “my” instead of • “thee” and “thou”? Too many of us, alas, inscribe to the theory that Church membership constitutes good Christianity! Not so -- as has been reiterated in the Bible many times! Mere physical attendance at a church service does not cleanse our souls of lust and greed, of a giving in to temptation! It ' only accomplishes our spiritual growth when we attend in submission to the Divine will; when we approach the House of God with true humility and repentance!’ The “things” of the world will not satisfy the deep, basic needs of souls of men. These needs will only be met as one gives oneself in service to mankind; only then will true Christian growth be established, as man follows in the footsteps of the Son of God. This is not to say that man should not better himself; this is a worthy principle fully within the concepts of Christianity. If, however, he does it at the expense of another, without heed or thought for the welfare of his I fellow man...this is greed, [ unadorned. But, for the true i Christian, his ambitions will | be harnessed to the needs of i his loved ones, and will be | culminated in honor. Basic ' among these needs is the [ teaching of true Christianity; 1 the youngster who faces the ! world today with true [ Christian principles instilled i in him with face it better [ prepared than will the ■ youngster who has been led to [ worship material things 1 instead of spiritual values. ! What will be our legacy to 1 our beloved children? mmfi ,”L | L L ; fpMiaJ ill'? f 3 i' OUT OF THE FE < I ppF > v . • ■ ***|Pja| ■ The game of golf reveals something fundamental in the character of man. For when man builds a golf course he deliberately creates hazards for himself. He builds his fairways between clumps of trees . . . dots them with bunkers and sand traps ... often terraces his greens with confusing slopes. The whole idea—to make things harder for himself! It is this same trait in human character that constantly concerns our churches. Christianity doesn’t teach that life can be—or should be—easy. It teaches us that hazards must challenge us to choose the right way. And it teaches men how to recover from their mistakes—with God’s help. For thousands who find themselves in one of the traps of life . . . our religion offers precious help and reassurance.
