The ancient Hebrews under the mosaic law offered the first fruits of their harvest and best ani mals were brought to the tem ple to be sacrificed for their sins. The Ramans offered their libations to their gods. Bulls were slaughtered as sa crifices to the Persian god of light. The Maoris and Az tecs were among the many people who made human sa crifices. As Christians we see in Jesus Christ the sup - re me sacrifice for the forgive ness of sin. It seems to be the nature of humanity to desire something mere than just lip service to his god. And yet today so few Christians are willing to go out of their way to do some thing for Him who has made the supreme sacrifice. What has happened to the spirit of sacrifice that was evidenced by Christians in the past when they were ready to ac cept risks of pain and death for the sake of otheis and for God's sake? Time was when converts felt the world was more important than Ids own little concerns. He belong - ed to God as everything be longed to Him. He suffered hardships, ridicule, some times even death with the conviction that it was not a sacrifice but a privilege to give himself, his money, time or life for the sake of the Kingdom of God. In the ancient pagan sac - rifices it was to appease an angry god but in the Hebrew and Christian concept the sacrifice was to return to God the life God gave to men. It is the acknowledgement that a man's life is not his own. It is God's life and he must use it to glorify Him. Jesus said, "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends" Whenever we offer a day or a week or our lives to help another, when ever we devote our lives to Christ-centered causes, we live significant lives for this is sacrificial living yet the act has become more than a sacrifice, it has become a privilege. We are here to be spent. Sweepstakes Winner Virginia P. Bailey of Burnsville was one of 147 North Carolinians to be named winner in a Progres - sive Farmer/Southem Living magazine sweepstakes mail ing conducted in 1971.
