The longest life viewed against the background of eternity is but an infinitesi mal (infinitely small) fraction of a fractional part of the stuff we call time. And, if one’s life has any value at all, it is not a matter of years but spirit, thought, ideas, ideals and char acter. In the Old Testament, we read about a group of men who are supposed to have lived hundreds of years. We read with envy their geneological table. The life of each was so ★ FOUR HOURS DAILY ★ - 3:01 P.M. AND M P.M.- (SPmiTUAL TIMES 4:15 AND 11:15) FEATURING THE BEST IN ^ HOT JAZZ AND BLUES VYSSB -1490 THE SHOWPLACE ON YOUR DIAL- long; oun so short. Adam lived SSO yesis; Seth 912 jrears; Enos 908 T«ars; and Methuselah, his son, topped the list with a totality oi 909 years. These men had what Ponce de Leon searched for and science is in quest of today, extended existmce; long life. Yet, you don’t find any of these men conn^ed with a single event fraught with great blessings for mankind. It is noteworthy, however, that Enoch, the youngest of the group^ is given especial notice because of the superior quality of his life. We are told- that he “walked with (Sod, and ^as not, for God took him.” Moses died at 120 years. At the time, we are told, “his eye was not dim, nor his physical strength abated.” But 120 years of life and remarkable vitality in old age are not the signifi cant thing in his., life. His life was of a superior quality and of a nature to be a benediction to mankind. Moses packed, in a shprt span of 120 years, more worth while living and crea tive activity than Seth. Jaredj. and Methuselah in a totality cf 2,243 years. A* we have'-noted, Methuselah lived 969 yeflrs, just 899 years beyond the three score years and ten we think of as allotted to men. Nine-hundred and sixty nine years! What a staggering total of years to be allotted one man! What did he do, or accom plish He begat • mb. Fonravd looking sociologists and genetf- cists are tor legisiatloa today that will pfievent tbe mentatly unfit from dv(ng the sam#. But there was another man who lired a few thousand yews after Methuselab’s day. He died at thirty-three years ot age. (He might have been younger). His life fell about 930 years siiort of Methuselah’s 900 years. But the martyred Jesus packed into thirty-three years a quality of living that hs« given him a name that is above ev«y name. And this f(>.t teaches us titat the value of a man'j life is not to be measured in years but quality, and Uiat ouly the life that ties in with the purpose of God is worth while, however long or short it may be. rtetrnnm HcGrawHairGef Presidenlial ApiHMrimenf Dr. Booker T.
