By Rev. Fred B. Lunsford,
Pastor, Little Brustovn
Baptist Church
THE CURSE OF
NEUTRALITY
Scripture: Judges 633:
Curse ye Merox, Mid the
angel of the Lard curse ye
bitterly the inhabitants there
of; because they came not to
the help of the Lord, to the
help of the Lord against the
Mighty.
The period of the Judges
was a very strange period In
the History of the Hebrews.
Deborah chanted her song of
triumph, one of the most
famous battle odes ever sung.
Then, there comes the curse
upon Merox.
Why was Merot cursed?
It was not cursed because
she decided to fight on die
wrong side. Neither because
she gave the enemies aide,
or got rich selling war sup
plies in time of a conflict.
The thing that caused the
curse upon the town was that
its people did nothing.
When the call came to fight
they stayed at home. The sin
of Meroz was the sin of In
action. While neutrality may
sometimes be virute, it is
usually the mark of contemp
tible cowardice.
The banner of righteousness
Ls a flag that cannot be car
ried by weak-kneed neutrals.
In the realm of the moral and
spiritual not to decide for the
right is to ally with wrong.
Why didn't they take part
In the conflict?
I am sure that some re
fused because they had no
vital Interest as happens so
many times today, then others
may have said, as many do
today, the time is not right,
maybe some other time. So
many things could have been
die reasons as we think of
the excuses that people of this
day use when they fall to fol
low the Lord in battle. Some
t>ne may have said I don't
like the leader or the long
ised excuse I don't have time.
"Oh, yes," somebody says,
"I just don't believe in this
inyway." So many times our
people say, "I don't believe
in Missions for they won't
lear anyway or it will cost
too much. Had our fore
others reasoned thus, what
would have been our own slt
jation today?
What is the curse?
The curse of God that des
: ended upon the community for
Jut cowardly neutrality In the
lay of conflict was three
old.
It was first of all a curse
>f inactivity. Inactive people
ire miserable. God blesses
nil.
God loves the toiler. Carlyle
>nce said "To work is to
irorship." You as a Christian
*111 not be held guiltless when
nactive. The lack of exercise
*111 cause decease and finally
ieath.
Second the curse of friend
less snobs. These people were
lonely and desolate, as any
people become that forget God
ind fall to stand for Him in
?Ime of war as well as In
time of peace and joy. I
The third is the lack of
joy in the victory. All of
Israel except Meroz sang the
songs of victory. To have no
?art In victory Is to know
bitterness. If you want to be
? happy christian then you
must wage die battle for the
Lord Jesus Christ in a brave
way. God is very much dis
pleased with a shirker or one
that wants to remain neutral
when there is a job to be done
for Him.
There Is a great job for all
of us to do In this day and in
this country and abroad, it
would be great If all of our
mountain people would stand
up and be counted for the battle
for right, in so doing these
things we must stand against
the things that are wrong which
so often try to creep into our
country.
Are you a soldier or a
coward?

Cuz Carved A Cleft In
The 'Rock Of Ages'
k 1*11 bet you dlcki't know that
people sirffer from Hocf and
Mouth DUeue the Mine as
cattle. Thenr sure do. And fm
living proof of the fact.
I mink they shoot cows and
burn their carcasses when this
malady la discovered in a
herd. I just hope that the same
remedy doesn't become
popular among people. If It
does I've had It cause I'm
forever opening my big mouth
and doing my dead level best
to cram both feet in it. I
usually succeed.
Let me give you an ex
ample or two and you'll see
what I mean.
Not long ago I went to Church
one Wectoesday night. Now I
don't make a practice of going
much on this particular night
? a lot of other people don't
either. But there were ten or
eight of us there. And you know
how it is when there's just a
handful. Everything is klnda
informal. Everybody will do a
lot of chattering In such an
ionosphere.
We didn't even have any
body there to play the piano.
So, you know how that is when
you're trying to sing. If you're
like me you need some klnda
music to cover up an off-key
voice like mine. But we never
had nobody. And we were gonna
try to sing one anyhow.
We didrt have a song lead
er either, but that wasn't any
thing new, especially on Wed
nesday nights. So our preacher
says hell lead us. I was glad
he volunteered cause he has a
good, strong, loud voice and
with him leading I knew I
would be drowned out. So would
everybody else. Anyhow he
said, "Whatll we sing?" I
suggested 'Rock of Ages'
cause that's the only one in
the book that I know the page
number of.
We waded into it and it come
out pretty good considering
we didn't all get started at
the same time. I noticed too,
that I usually got to the end
of the verses before the rest
of 'em did, but fd always wait
for 'em when I finished first.
When we came over this
line, "Rock of ages cleft for
me, let me hide myself in
thee" I was thinking that with
such a little bitty bunch as we
had there that night the old
rock wouldn't have to be cleft
very much to hide us.
As soon as everybody got all
through singing, for a few sec
onds, there was utter silence.
When the silence was at Its
utter est I told 'em what I
had been thinking.
Everybody was real polite
---they all laughed and agreed
with me. But before they were
all through chuckling at this
little wise-crack of mine the
preacher says "Brother Bag
well, (our preacher has a lot
of trouble with my name), lead
us in prayer.
I was pretty sure he called
on me only because I had open
ed my big mouth. It took me
several seconds beforelcould
get my thoughts collected and
try to sift something serious
out of "etn to pray out loud
?bout.
A *U?n prayer did occur to
me ImmedUtely, however,
"Lord, please help me to learn
to keep my big mouth shut."
Then here just theocher day
I did It again? -opened my
mouh and crammed both feet
in lu
I mi getOag ready 10 go to
work with about a minimum of
time for getting dressed.
I took a clean shirt out of
the drawer and began affix
ing all the necessary
accouterments to it, such as
name plate, badge, and foun
tain pen in the pocket. When
I tried to button die collar
button it came apart in the
middle and fell off.
That laundry! I If I've told
'em once I've told 'em a
hundred times not to send
my shirts back with the collar
buttons busted. Of all the
things that needle me, this
does the most. Probably on
account of when I try to sew
on buttons I usually stick my
finger three or four times
before I get the job done. So
I'm blowing fuses right and
left and the things I'm say
ing about this laundry for
doing this to melll There ain't
no use for me to write none
of 'em down here cause pap
ers wouldn't prim it nohow.
While I'm still pretty work
ed up I decided to call said
laundry and give 'em a piece
of my mind. I realized that if
I gave 'etn a piece of it
I wouldn't have much left but
I was sure in a mood to share
it with 'em.
I called 'em. The softest
gentlest lady's voice answer
ed. I thought to myself: She is
practicing that business of a
soft answer turneth away
wrath. But I was determined
that it wasn't gonna turneth
away MY wrath. 1 said

BIBLE
QUESTIONS
* ANSWERS
By Tom Ledbetter
Andrews Church of Christ
Question: la it til right
to do anything that la
"Good" In religious prac
tices?
Answer: The writer of
Proverbs says that there
is a way that seems right
to man, but the ends there
of art the ways of death.
(Pro. 14:13) It is not left
to man's Judgement to guide
his own steps CJer. 10:23)
ao we cannot devise what
is good and bad as far as
religious practices are
concerned.
Paul tells us that God's
word completely furnishes
a man (II Tim. 3:17) ao we
need no other guide. We
have a very strict warning
not to add to or take away
from the word of God (Rev.
22:18-19).
We have an example in
the life of King Saul that
stresses this idea. He waa
told to destroy everything
among the Amlekites, but
he chose to disobey and
bring back the best to sac
rifice. Because of this
unapproved change, even
though nice, he was reject
ed by God from being king.
(I Sam. 15:1-23)
