FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 2, 1953
THE PARSON'S ■
PARAGRAPHS PS
BY W. ROBERT IXSKO j
GOD’S ACTS
Yestei’day most of us discarded the 1952 calendar and
replaced it with a new 1953 calendar. When one compares
a secular calendar with a Church Kalendar he finds ari
excellent comparison of the kind of life the Christian re
ligion intends that we live as over against the kind of 4
life our secular society would have_ us live.
The experience of many persons during Christmastide
was not that which the Christian religion outlines for us
in the Christian Kalendar. Now that Christmas is over
many do not have to be told that they did not celebrate
Christmas as a Christian festival should be celebrated.
Yesterday in the secular world was New Year’s Day.
In the Christian world it was also the day marking the
beginning of a new year, but it was also, as few people
realized, the day on which classical Christians through
out the new world remember The Circumcision of Christ, 4
continuing the story of St. Luke read on Christmas Day.
“And when eight days were accomplished for the circum
cising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which
was so named of the angel before he was conceived in
the womb.” Centuries ago the Church started celebrating
this day of our Lord’s life as against the pagan carnival
of New Year’s. Centuries ago the Church realized the im
portance of remembering this day and underlined it as
an important day on the Christian Kalendar. The Chris
tian Kalendar grew out of the \yorshipping community
of Christians, as they responded to the mighty acts of*
God. The circumcision of Christ is one of those acts. It
is the affirmation of a truth too often forgotten: that
God did not send His Son to found a completely new're
ligion. The New Testament rests upon the Old; the cov
enant of grace presupposes the covenant of law; the
Church is the transformed and universalized Israel.
It did not just happen that Christ was a Jew. God
had picked the Jews for His special purposes, educated
them and guided them in a particular manner, so that
the way would be made ready for the supreme Act of.
all—the Act that points backward to Abraham and Moses, *
and forward to the entire human race. It was part of
God’s design that the groundwork for his universal revel
ation should be laid by the Jews, and that the Saviour of
mankind should stand squarely in that tradition, and be
obedient to its covenant.
As we face the new year, let us guide our lives with
the use of the Christian Kalendar, a calendar that un
derlines those days that bring to mind the mighty acts
of God. The Christian Kalendar brings to the fore the
events of our Lord’s life, the greatest Act of God for man- 4
kind. It brings to the fore all of His acts “for us men
and for our salvation.” It is a guide for redemptive living.
It helps us ‘live the Bible.” It provides a major tool in
our seeking of “the way, the truth, and the Light.”
In 1953 let us live by the Christian Kalendar that v/e
may progress in “the new light of thine incarnate Word,”
and be made acceptable in His sight.
