I think Congress has ap
proved a constructive legisla
tive program and that its
moderate approach reflects
the sentiments of the people.
GORE AMENDMENT—I am
glad to say that the Gore
Amendment to H. R. 10?
which would apply a special
tax rule to lump sum pay
ments of employee pension
plans, has been deleted by
the Senate-House Confer
ence Committee. It was re
troactive legislation, and it
was not just w*hen compared
W’ith other law's governing
pension funds.
FARM LEGISLATION—The
Senate has been passing farm
legislation most of this ses
sion. The bill approved by
Congress has some good pro
Ilf?8 in it- Candor compels
me t<> say that there are
many things in the bill which
I o not favor. In essence,
Congress had to pass a bill
ecause the alternative of no
action was worse. If no bill
Had been passed, the per-'
manent law granting high
price supports with virtually
no controls on wheat and
iced grains would have oper
ated again.
For some years we have
had wheat and feed grains
running out of our ears. We
have had a system with virt
ually no controls on feed
Plains, but with high price
Supports. I have the convict
ion that if we are going to
Have price supports, it is just
as essential that we have
controls that are effective
on wheat and feed grains.
Cotton, tobacco, and peanut
programs have effective con
trols along with price sup
ports. These programs have
worked well. The current
farm bill illustates once more
that in considering major
legislation it is seldom that
a measure is all good or all
bad. The farm alternatives
are plain, but as yet Con
gress has not given a clear
cut answer.
Another in a series of
articles in which the North
Carolina Department of Mo
tor Vehicles explores some
of the significant facts be
hind last year’s traffic ac
cident toll.
The State Department of
Motor Vehicles reminds driv
ers that what you don’t see
can hurt you! In a special
study of last year’s GO,844
highway accidents, the vehic
les agency revealed that 107
death-dealing mishaps were
attributed to vision obstruct
ion. In 41 of the cases wind
shields were obscured by
rain, snow, fog, sleet, etc.,
and in 66 cases the driver’s
vision was obscured by build
ings signs, bushes, crops,
embankments, parked cars,
etc. Vision, or lack of it, was
not indicated in the rest of
the line-up. In all there were
1001 death-dealing mishaps
in which 1254 persons died.

God
Lesson for October 14,1962
WHAT is more important than
God? Even to ask the ques
tion is absurd. The Bible is so
filled with truth about God that
a lifetime of study could not
draw from the
Scripture all that
is there to be
found. Because
there is such an
“embarrassment
of riches” we
have to make
some selection
here. We mention
only a few great
truths about God,
all found in the 17th chapter of
Acts. The passage, Acts 17:22-29,
is part of a sermon Paul preached
to a pagan audience in the city
of Athens. If you had a chance
to speak to educated non-Chris
tians about God, how would you
start? What would you say first?
Creator and Lord
Paul begins by reminding the
Athenians that they were not
atheists. Their trouble was that
they believed in too many gods.
They were so anxious not to
neglect any god that they had
actually put up an altar to “An
Unknown God.” Whoever was re
sponsible for that altar must have
felt there was some other God
out of sight. Paul brings the word
that this “unknown god” is after
all, the true one. He is “the God”
—the only one. No part of this
earth is outside his realm ... only
that is saying too little; in this
space-minded age Paul might well
have said that God made the Uni
verse and everything in it. He is
the God of every star and every
planet, no matter how many light
years away. As Creator, he does
more than make worlds without
number. He peoples them with in
habitants without number. He
makes life possible here on this
earth. Wherever in this vast uni
verse life exists—if it does—there
it is God who is both Creator and
Dr. Foreman
tr
Preserver, and therefore Lord of
heaven and earth, and of all their
inhabitants.
“We are His offspring"
Further, God as Creator is Fa
ther of all. Paul shows his knowl
edge (we did not say, shows off
his knowledge) by quoting from a
Greek poet Aratus,—or another
one, Cleanthes, who said the same
thing. “We are his offspring.” In
plain English, we are children of
God. Children, that is, in the sense
that we are his creatures, we owe
our existence to Him. There are
three “levels” (so to speak) of
the fatherhood of God. First He
is the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ; this is unique, no other
is in the class with Christ. Sec
ond, He is Father of believers,
Father of those who love Him and
desire to live as His children.
Third, He is Father of all men,
though most men do not know this
nor care, but are self-made or
phans.
God is Spirit
Jesus had said long before this,
“God is Spirit.” Paul does not
use this word but he speaks of
what God is not. He does not live
in shrines made by hand; He is
not served by human hands; in
Him we live and move and are;
“the Deity is not like gold, or
silver, or stone, a representation
by the art and imagination of
man.” If we are God’s offspring,
then a human being is more near
ly like God than anything else in
the universe; so true is this, that
when God set out to make his spe
cial and supreme revelation of
himself, he did this through the
man Christ Jesus. So Paul gently
but plainly condemns all idols.
“That they might seek after Him"
A little boy said: “I like God.
He hides and we have to find
Him.” There is truth in that. God
is not obvious, we can go through
life denying that He exists; but
He is there all the time. Rather,
He is here, here wherever we
may be. He is not far from each
one of us (and remember, Paul
was speaking to non-Christians);
yet nevertheless the Bible often
speaks of man’s seeking God. The
point here is that God made man
and has taken care of him, for
one main purpose, namely that
men might seek God in hope. God
is not a silent God, He is not
aloof and remote, deaf to man’s
cries. God wants to be wanted.
He wants his children-by-creation
to become His children-by-grace.
But God will not force his way
into any heart. He would rather
be sought freely and eagerly than
to compel men to worship him.
