Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you. and pray for them which despitefully use you." In answer to a lawyer who asked, u'hat Is the great commandment, Jesus said, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God - . which is the first and great command ment. The second ts like unto it. Thou shalt love they neighbour as thyself." Jesus told about a Samaritan who bound up the wounds of a robbed and beaten man after a priest and a Levite had passed him by; took him to an inn, gave the inn-keeper money, andtold him to take care of the wounded man. "Which now of these three, thinkesi thou, was neighbor to him, who Mi among thieves?" Jesus asked. He said. "He that showed mercy on him." Jesus said, "Go and do thou likewise." MEMORY VERSE Romans 13.10. on Jesus and the Law of Love HIGHLIGHTS ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON By NEWMAN CAMPBELL (The International Uniform Lesson on the above topic for Sept. 29 Is Exodus 20:3-17; Psalm 119:33-40; Jeremiah 31:31-34; Matthew 5:38-48; 22:37-39; Mark 12:30-31: Luke 10:25-37; Romans 8:2-4, Galatlans 5:13-24, the Memory Verse being Romans 13:10, "Love worketh no 111 to his neighbor: love therefore is the fulfillment of the law.") 'JESUS AND the Law of Love is the title of today's lesson, alid we And in it how Jesus Inter preted this law. No half way measures with Him. He went the whole way. We have been studying the commandments as written in the book of Exodus, and know from It that our first duty is to love God with our whole hearts. Man's struggle to attain the ideal which Jesus gives us Is typified In the 119th Psalm of David, which Is Included in our lesson today. "Teach me, O Lord, the way of Thy statutes; and I shall keep :t unto the end. "Give me understanding, and I 'shall keep Thy law. yea, I shall Observe It with my whole heart. "Turn away mine eyes from be holding vanity; and quicken Thou me In Thy way. "Behold, I have 'longed after Thy precepts; quicken me In Thy righteousness." These words are like the cry of a child who wants so much to do what Is right, but who fears to dfumble and do what he knows Is wrong. Every Man Will Know God The Ideal association of God and man Is found In Jeremiah, who prophesies of the time when, in a new covenant between God and His children, men "shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, "Know the Lord: for they shall all know Me, from the least of them unto the great est of them, salth the Lord." If God Is in every man's heart nd every woman's and child's it will no longer be difficult to do His bidding, and He will then forgive their sins. Can anyone obey Jesus' rule of loving our enemies ? The old He brew law asked for "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth." In other words, a wrong should be avenged in the manner In which It was given. "Ye have heard that It hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you and perse cute you." , "That ye may be the children of your Father which is In Distributed by King Features Syndicate, heaven: for He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust." We can all see that this is so. And Jesus goes on to show that If we simply love those who love and are kind to us, we do just as everyone else does. We cannot take any credit for it. But If we try to see the good In our enemies, and are pa tient and loving toward them, even praying that blessings may come to them instead of thinking vtndictlve thoughts about them, we really have the God of Love in our hearts and are doing what He wants us to do. Story of Good Samaritan The parable of the good Samari tan Is known to us, but It Is al ways a lovely story to tell and beautifully illustrates our lesson. Jesus told it to a man who had asked Him how he could Inherit eternal life. When Jesus told him to love God and his neighbour, he asked, trying to justify his question. "And who is my neigh bour" ? Then Jesus told him about a man probably a Jew who was traveling down the steep road from Jerusalem to Jericho, and when he came to a narrow gorge was set upon by robbers, who stripped him of lils clothes, took his money and beat him, leaving him nearly dead. A priest came along, and saw him, but whether from fear or thinking It was none of his busi ness, he went on his way. Like wise a Levite (a priest's helper) came along and also passed. Then a Samaritan, one of an alien and despised race, came that way. and this man went to the wounded man, bound up his wounds, then got him upon the man's own beast and took him to an inn and paid the Inn-keeper to care for him, promising that if this care cost more than the money he left, he would repay him when he passed that way again. "Which of these three, thlnkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among thieves?" Jesus asked simply. The man answered, "He that showed mercy unto him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise." We all love ourselves. Every child, every grown person, wants things for himself, and It Is a hard lesson to learn to be un selfish and to think of others. Can we go still further, and love others as much as we love our selves? And forgive and even love our enemies and those who do unkind things to us? It has been done, but even all these years after Jesus' teachings, not too many of us are even trying very hard to follow that teach ing. But we can try, and keep on trying. Inc.

Jarvis Underwood will con duct preaching services at the East Waynesville church on Sunday evening at 7:30. The public is invited. What the nation really needs, perhaps, is a larger proportion of unselfish people. Parents can offer to their grow ing children no substitute for per sonal companionship. That takes time, and there is nothing more important. Those parents who are too busy" at other things in cluding making a living, dis charging social obligations, and even church work should find an alarming warning in the ease of seventeen - year - old William Heir ens, recently sentenced to three terms of life imprisonmnent for three murders in one of the most shocking and revolting cases ever presented to the American public. In an interview just alter his conviction, according to the United l'ress, he sent hi" I message to other youths of the land, "Confide in your parents or those close to you . . . I never had the opportunity to be close to my parents. I was sent away to boarding school when I got in trouble, and I was always away from home when 1 needed their confidence." Although he also said, "I don't blame my parents. They are two of the most wonderful people in the world," we can't help but see in the background that they prob ably made the mistake being made by many parents, of failing to take time to give their children the companionship which the normal child craves. The modern pattern is familiar. When the baby first conies, he receives an abundance of personal attention, especially if he is the first child. This continues through Hie nursing period and in early childhood. As the child grows, and perhaps other children come, household responsibilities increase for the mother and financial de mands for the father. They be come increasingly taken up with the mechanics of making a living and housekeeping. Outside contacts demand more time. These children who become accustomed as small children to personal attention from their parents, find themselves re ceiving less of it. Thwarted in their desire for companionship from their parents, they seek it elsewhere, often from people and other children who oiler a poor substitute. Then comes adolescence, and main- parents suddenly wake up to the fact that their children are strangers to them, present prob lems which they do not know how to meet. If a boarding school can be afforded, many honestly think this is the answer, and the child is sent away from home. While they think boarding school is the only answer, but in too many cases it is not. College age comes soon enough, and it has always been my girls should lie kept directly under inic sr.u, ,.
