Religion In The Here And Now
t • 1
Norvin C. Duncan
'IF HE BE THE KING OF ISRAEL, LET HIM
NOW COME DOWN FROM THE CROSS AND
WE WILL BELIEVE IN HIM. Math. 27-42
When Jesus hung upon the cross the Chief
Priests said: "Let Him come down from the cft)6s
and we will believe in Him." Their attitude re
flects that of many people through the ages, and
today. Theirs is an escapest religion. If God does
not answer their prayers in the way in which
they want them answered, they will no longer
believe in Him. If Jesus had not died upon that
cross His mission to the world would never have
been accomplished. We cannot understand all that
was involved in that death, but we know that "It
was for us He hung and suffered there"; and had
He not suffered there would have been no re
demption for us.
From the very beginning erf His ministry,
Jesus knew that it involved humility, suffering,
and death. He knew, when He left the wilderness
of temptation, that His face was set towards
Calvary, and throughout His earthly ministry He
knew that He was walking that path.
There are millions today who feel that re-
Hgion must give them what they want, or they
will not believe in religion. If God does not answer
their prayers as they feel they should be answer
ed, they refuse to believe in God or prayer. Be
fore they believe, Jesus must come down from
the cross. He must keep them from all sick
ness, sorrow, pain, and reward them with pros
perity, or they will not believe.
Christiana must share that cross with Jesus.
Their primary concern in life must be the con
cern of Jesus—His father's will, His concern for
people, and a concern for the truth—and a will
ingness to die for conviction and high purpose.
The Christian must believe and obey in sharing
the cross before he can uhderstand its meaning
or receive its blessings. Striving to avoid sharing
the cross, means losing its power.
TF ANY MAN WOULD COME AFTER ME, LET
HIM DENY HIMSELF, TAKE UP HIS CROSS
AND FOLLOW ME.
Pageant will be $50.00, sec
ond prize $26.00, Third prize
$15.00 and fourth prize SIO.OO.
The prizes in the Talent Con
test will be; first place $25.00,
