EDS SELL-Dial 4101 Sunday School lesson Bob Walter*, Pastor Black Mountain Methodist Church GOD AND THE NATIONS Scripture Lesson Zephaniah 3: 1-5, 14-20. For several weeks we have con sidered “God in the Life of a Na tion" as illustrated by the ancient kingdom of Judah. We come to a summary with a consideration of God as a judge of nations. How does God judge a nation? The prophet Zehaniah was taken with the idea that there was within the warp and woof of the universe an unseen law of right and wrong. He strongly felt that so long as a nation conformed to this unseen moral law, all would be well. Ev ery nation, including his own, faced the inevitable judgment of God in the light of this law. Judah was on the verge of ut ter collapse. “Everything nailed down was coming loose.” This was due, in part, to warring polit ical parties fueding over the di minishing power of the nation. One group often called the “puri tans” wanted to purify the current worship from the pagan elements that had infiltrated the country. The other faction, the “antipuri tans” wanted to follow’ a less of fensive policy and compromise with thg Baal worshipers. Not waiting to see which part was in the majority, Zehaniah, at the age of 26, declared himself as supporting the strict observance of Jehovah worship. This prophet of God saw his nation filled with evils, which he believed contrary to the will of God. The book at tributed to him is filled with de nounciations of these evils. The controlling presupposition of his entire book is the certainity of catastrophe for an unrighteous na tion. "I will utterly sweep away everything from the face of the earth, says the Lord.” Zehaniah saw' the approaching dangers but he believed God would save the righteous remnant. There is a general feeling today that the nations of the earth are in great jeopardy. Most of us agree with this in the light of our limited knowledge of the current situations. This perilous world situation has prompted the lead ers in national defense to hold mass evacuation drills. They in vision the possibility that eight million would be dead after such attacks and seven million others wounded. At a time when hostile nations have the power to destroy civilization, it causes us to wonder if time is not running out for us all. This trend of thought ex tends outside the pulpit. The so ciologist, historian, editor, diplo mat, scientist, and the military are all saying about the same NOTICE Having this day qualified as Ancillary Administrator C. T. A. of the Estate of CELESTIA MOORE, late of the City of Wash ington, District of Columbia, this is to notify all persons having claims against said estate to pre sent them to the undersigned on or before June 2, 1956, or else this notice will be plead in bar of re covery.

He had been politely at a)|Shde„ The PCOple were no't at all hostile to God but they did not seem to think He mattered. it was a question of what was supreme in the Hebrew life: God and his righteousness or things W1,l,h the. power and feeling of self-sufficiency they bring. A? we ponder this problem it seems that this section of the Bi ble was written for us, doesn’t it? p °r the evil of our time is basic ally the same as in Zehaniah’s the entering of life on things. As 1 sit meditating on this lesson, the question comes to me. How many of my parishioners put God and His righteousness first in life? Then I ask: How many are more impressed by out ward power, bigness, speed, busi ness and financial successes? This emphasis on things has in fisted all aspects of life. Our churches and schools boast of size and numbers. They preach a gos pel of success which means an evaluation hy the dollar mark. I was amazed recently when a leader of our church said, “fellows you are writing your own record and promotions rest upon two points: numbers received into the church and the amount of money you raise.” This tends to show by what standard we operate even within the Christian church. I •recall that our blessed Lord had but twelve men and no money. Yet, those men changed the course of history. The Baal gods were soil gods—gods of production of things). Our Baals have dressed out in the latest fashions, but do they have a new character? Jes us, when asked about the goal in life replied: “Thou shalt love thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.” Things are not bad in themselves. It is when things are ends in themselves. National Salvation. The sure sign of hope is in the knowledge mentioned by Zehaniah that the Lord of all nations is merciful. Sin brings inevitable punishment, but the sinner can be born to new life. A saving rem nant can deliver a nation from de j-truction. God was once asked if 'n righteous people could be lound would he spare the city? iis answer was, Yes! We pray hat during these days of crises 'hat He may see enough righte ousness within our nation that it may be spared from an atomic and hydrogen destruction. There is one sign of hope upon the horizon; that is the loss of our feeling of self-sufficiency. Some 0 our pride and boasting has oeased. There are signs that peo ple are thinking soberly and ser iously and turning toward God. borne who have worshiped at the shrines of things, science and big government are finally coming to the Christian mourner’s bench. The best way to begin this spiritual awakening is within our local churches. You can be a vital part in returning this nation to God. So many people of this sophis ticated generation have given up the idea of hell-fire and damna tion. The peoples of Europe and Korea are less prone to do so. If one Hydrogen bomb falls upon a large city in America it will re lieve us of this sophisticated com plex. Hell will be a reality. We pray that man’s grave nec essity will in some way be God’s opportunity. His purpose is al ways to save rather than to de stroy; to give life rather than crush it. We need to keep our minds and hearts open for the in coming and guidance of His spirit. WALRUS 0 1954 National Wildlife Federation If you can imagine what mod ern United States would be with out cows or earlier United States without bison you may have some idea what some parts of the world might be were there no walruses. We have for the most part elimi nated bison from their native haunts and to a great extent feel that we are superior in intelligence to the average Eskimo and yet the Eskimo has seen to it that the harvest of walruses be limited to the needs of man and to such an extent that the walrus may con tinue to maintain its existence. It would seem that in a reevalua tion of ourselves we might well recognize that the Eskimo has shown more sense than have we. It would seem offhand that a walrus must have been built from a plan originally drawn by some inebriated cartoonist. Neverthe less, as is usually the case, it is an animal whose structure fits it remarkably to the available food supply and to the environment in which it lives. Its enormous tusks provide excellent tools with which molluscs may be broken loose from the sea bottom.

A single tusk of a male walrus may be over 3 feet long and weigh to 9 pounds. The tusk of the female walrus is more slender and bowed. In the Atlantic, walruses are found in Arctic seas south to La brador. In the Pacific area, they are found from Bering Sea south of the Pribilof Islands being more abundant on the Siberian side than on the Alaskan shore. There is an annual migration with courtship and mating taking place on the northern migration about a month after the young are born. In the Atlantic group, the young are born from the middle of April to late May; in the Pacific, in May or June. Mating takes place about 11 months before the young are born. A newborn calf is gray, about 4 feet long and no teeth show externally. By August a young walrus may weigh to 120 pounds. Young walruses cling to the mother’s neck while she swims and dives. They may nurse for 2 years by which time they have grown tusks which are to 4 inches long and adequate for food get ting. A bull walrus may measure to 12 feet long and may weigh to 3, 000 pounds. The female is about 2/3 the size of the male. The an imals are practically hairless and tailless. The five toes on the for ward flippers bear flat nails and the nose is blunt and provided with coarse bristles. Two hind toes bear both flat nails and pointed nails. Walruses may feed in water to 300 feet deep almost standing on their heads when doing so. The stomach can hold only about 1 gallon of food. The animals may be found in great herds and may be great noise makers. They have many louse parasites and are preyed upon by killer whales, bears and of course by man. From a walrus carcass, an Eskimo gets valuable oil for light, flesh for food, bones and hide for equip ment, intestines for window glass and tusks for sale and trade. So important are the animals for sur vival to Eskimos that it would seem that white men should in no way interfere with their economy except to provide protection where needed. The herds in Hudson Bay and to some extent in Siberia seem to be holding up reasonably well. The National Wildlife Federation is interested in protecting these animals reasonably just as it is interested in similar rational treat ment for other forms of w’ildlife.— E.
