Efird’s AFTER CHRISTMAS CLEARANCE SALE BARGAINS! BARGAINS! REDUCTIONS IN EVERY DEPARTMENT STARTS SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY, DEC. 31 SHOP AND SAVE -AT- El OEPARIMINI OW SANFORD, W HAT the world brings to Christ is never to be com pared with what Christ brings the world. Not all the Christmas gifts that ever were, including those given to the cause and in the name of Jesus, equal a small part of the value of Jesus himself to the world. Nevertheless, ever since the time of the wise men from the east, gifts have been brought and laid at the feet of Christ, in one way or another. • • • Wisdom Many treasures of wisdom, through these 19 cehturies, have been poured out for the Master’s service. Not that men can make God wise; but the wisdom and learning of man kind can be, and have been, put at the disposal of Christ and his cause. To take one fact alone: the translation of the Bible into hundreds of lan guages through out the world. The work of trans lating can never stop, because lan guages keep changing; the English and the French of this century are not the same as they were cen turies ago, and Bibles translated for those times become hard to understand in our day. Not that a new English transla tion is needed every few years; but somewhere, all the time, into some language or other, this work is be ing carried on. It is no simple job; a translator must not only know Greek and Hebrew, but also, and very thoroughly, the language into which he translates. Most good translations are made by groups, for many heads are better than one, at this work. When we add to the work of the translators all that other scholars have done, all the brain work that has gone into the printing and bind ing of the books and distributing them in many ways; we can see what the devotion of intellectual talents has meant, through the cen turies, to the Christian religion. • • * Wealth 'Think what a difference it would make, if suddenly every Christian in the world decided that the Lord’s work could get along just as well without being offered an other cent. No new churches would be built; existing churches would fall into decay because no one would pay for their repair (and free labor wouldn’t do it, because that too is a form of wealth). Home and foreign missions would come to an end. Cjhristian schools, hos pitals and colleges would close down. No Christian books of any kind could be printed. Radio re ligious broadcasts would cease, be cause there would not be any one to pay for them, and even the “free” time, which always costs the station something, could no longer be offered. * « • From Each His Own Christianity is today an interna tional religion, though it started off as the religion of a few Asiatic Jews. But Jesus was scarcely out of his cradle before those men of the East came, and they were the first of a long line from every na tion and race in the world. In America we think of Christian ity as almost an American re ligion; but it is not. Americans have brought much to Christianity, —their energy, daring, pioneering spirit, their practical slant on everything,—these have given to Oiristianity in North America a “color” and a “style” all its own. But we are not the only Chris tians, perhaps not even the best ones. There are Indian Christians, and Chinese Christians; there are Christians among the Eskimos and Zulus. There is some Christianity behind the Iron Curtain; it is found in Scotland, Sweden, Spain, El Sal vador. And while we are all brothers under the skin, the fact remains that it takes all kinds of Christians to make the Christian world, and to make the world Christian. Our missionaries do not go out to make American Christians; they go to make Christians. And every one who comes to Christ brings some thing which is specially his own. As Rev. John MonselTs hymn has it: “Fean not to enter His courts in the slenderness Of the poor wealth thou wouldst reckon as thine: Truth in its beauty, and love in its tenderness. These are the offerings to lay on His shrine.” (Copyright 19S2 by the Division of Christian Education, National Council of the Churches of Christ of the United States of America.

Of course, it is just about perfect from a structural standpoint. It spins through space with such mathe matical precision that man 'can count days and months and years—and even print them on calendars without fear of error. But where life and people are concerned . . . even a child can see that things are pretty badly muddled. I What of 1953? Will it bring a better world? Will there be more happiness and less sorrow . . . more love and less hatred . . . more good, less evil? Our world will always be what we are. Only as the lives of men change, can the life of the world improve. The Church is dedicated to building better lives. By religious education, by worship, by preaching the high est moral and spiritual standards, the Church can make a better you and a better me. There is no other way to a better world. The Church is the salvation of man kind. THE CHURCH FOR AU Au for the church Wilhoul a shona O, “u' democracy nor* '’®'*her survive.
