UNIFORM Sunday School Lesson William R. Klein, Pastor Black Moun:ain Presbyterian Church February 20 Printed Scripture: John 3:5-7; Acts 16:25-34; II Corinthians 5:17. We in our day have not under stood what it means to be "in Christ.” The meaning of becom ing new men is foreign to us. W hat are the characteristics of a Chris tian? We would quickly say. ‘‘one who does not drink; or smoke, per haps: or cuss; or beat his wife; or gamble; or steal—one who be haves himself; and goes to church: and says the proper words or be lief.” Anyone who is quite re spectable we call a Christian, but such is not the case. Neither he who refrains from the more ob vious vices, or he who attends church and makes the right creedal statements is necessarily a Chris tian. Any respectable pagan could fill this description. And it is la mentable that we who are supposed to be Christian are unable to de fine exactly what a Christian is supposed to look like, or to act like. Perhaps in looking at this topic of "New Life in Christ”, we can catch at least one beam of light into the characteristics of a Chris tian. I. Need for New Life—John 3:5-7. One of the most horrible aspects of cancer is that it can do its deadly work silently and unob served until it has gotten such a death grip on a person that sur gery or the X-Ray are of little consequence. This is characteris tic of human sinfulness. The first task of sin is to persuade us that nothing is wrong. Human sin is self-deceptive. It sets up a facade, or vaneer over our true selves and persuades us that all is well when it is not. While underneath this facade we are afraid and in secure and hostile and anxious and above all, guilty. Thus what we need above all is a radical curt which will set things right anc grant us moral realism about our selves and a new relationship with the Lord of the Universe. The Christian diagnosis of man’s situation is that he is in oppositior to God because of something ht J.

And as a result of this basi hostility to God, he is plagued b feelings of guilt that he cannc placate. Involved in this hoetilit to God is a feeling of anxiety we do not get out of life what w want. And so we place ourselve at the center of our loyalty an seek to make ourselves secure. A we've become more civilized, we’v entered into lawful agreement with each other so that we can g< as much as we need and still hav a reasonable amount of securit against the selfishness of other Thus with this endemic selfisl ness and our hostility toward Goi no matter what name we use, w are trapped in a web from whic we cannot escape. Christians have always pointe to the Cross as the only true ai swer to man’s situation. And has been the experience of men ar women who have truly understoc the faith to find the answer in tl Cross. Our guilt is somehow r moved, our hostility to life—whk we come to understand as bas fear of God—is taken away, ar we find a new center of loyalt not in ourselves, but in Jesi Christ. And thus when we enti into this new personal relationshi —being born again, regeneratio: salvation, what ever we call it life which before seemed an enij ma or a comedy or a traged; somehow takes on a newr meanin and somehow makes sense. Christianity is set off from a other religions by demanding thf our entrance into this new reli tionship with God in Jesus Chrii is unique. It is not a mere in provement of our former lives, is not living up to our best, for ot best is not good enough. It is no 1 t f B 9 i s e s t e y l 1, e h d i ;t d d ie h LC d y tr P i, as polonius said in Hamlet. lv being true to ourselves, fo. our self is our trouble, 1'e nee entirely new self. We need, to throwout all the old habits and attitudes, and receive new one.. The meaning of repentance is so much being sorry for our past, but in choosing a new direction and moving that way. The New Testament describes this entrance into the new life as so decisive that it speaks of it as a dying with Christ and arising anew with Him. And this is precisely what is supposed to take place. »re to die to our ol 1 selves, an t on receive a new life of the spirit: a new life in which we are at rpafP with God and with ourselves and with the world around us. e are at harmonv with the moral forces of the universe. This new life is of course char acterized by ethical behaviour, by our testimony to the fact that we owe our destiny to the era o o, Jesus Christ, by our study of the Bible, and all the other things a Christian is supposed to do. hut there is more than that. Tr e Christian lives in liberty—the free dom of the sons of God, and no law can bind his conscience. The only law the Christian knows is the law of love, and that is no law at all. The Christian enters into a dynamic relationship with the Son of God, and he experiences this as the evangelical experience of faith—by a personal confronta tion with God Himself. The Chris tian ceases to live for himself, he no longer lives to get for his bene fit, for he has found himself. His center of loyalty is now outside of himself, in Christ Himself, and with this new center of loyalty the Christian can give himself for oth ers. We are not chosen or called of God to a position of privilege—at least not privilege as we've under stood it. We are called to serve. We are called to take upon our selves the redemptive work of Christ and to continue what He began and eternally finished. This is what it really means to be a Christian, this is the real essence of the new life: we are to feel the same kind of love for mankind that God feels—and it’s the kind of love we see only in the Cross—we are to identify ourselves with the mis eries of the sinful world, and b> the expression of our love to draw all mankind to the Lord who alone is due their loyalty.

SEGREGATION. - The old seg -egation bugaboo stands a good -hance of ruining efforts to ge 'ederal - aid - for - education legis ation through the present Con The states in most need of fed eral financial assistance in build ing schools are those in the South. It is here that school'construct^ is lagging and state revenues are too low to keep up with the de mands of education.

Bender, one of the most conser vative members of the Senate, ha? stated several times during the bearings that he thought southern states should squeeze more money out of their own pocketbooks be fore expecting the Federal govern ment to help pay for school build ings. Bender, during a long series ol questions, asked if southern schoo officials intend to carry out th< Supreme Court's decision banning segregation in public schools. H< was told that southerners stil think they will he able to providi superior educational opportunit; through equal but separate schools “Well, I will tell you one thing If no one else does it, 1 plan t< offer an amendment to the federa school construction bills that woul require that the money be spen on unsegregated schools,” Bende said.

In effect, this mean Bender and some of his colleague will try to use the segregation is This alone is the true work of th Christian, and when a church c an individual Christian ceases t have this as its reason for exisl ance, we have thereby remove ourselves from that group wh bear the marks of the Lord Jesu Christ upon their heart. sue to kill any federal-aid-for-ed ucation bill.
