Hath not one God created usV Malachi 2: 10.. ' Lesson Tex: Isaiah 65: 17-25; ' AcU 171 24-28. . . Narrow nationalism was the curse of the world in the days of Isaiah and of Jesus and of Paul, even as it is still today. Every nation was con vinced that it was the finest nation, the noblest in the world. . The Jews believed themselves to be the "Cho sen People" of God, which they were, but their actions did not match their contention. Isaiahi. criticised them for this and, certainly, Jesus disliked their attitude' in this respect." 1 t , Isolated," bitter, armed to the teeth, Sroud, cruel and narrow-visioned was he world into which Isaiah, Jesus mrl Pniil wat hnm.

Isaiah looked -forward- to the "day hen brotherhood should reign over the world. He hoped the time "UUIU IfUlllU wvuv. . -vj- r of hate and destruction would be sub HiipH hv the ufiwer and Brace of God. When that day arrives, there will be joy, .a ' sense, oi security au auavi " twlav and tieace will nervade Jie earth. . .The. human life span, will be , increased Because oi tnese jmprovea , conditions and there, anau pe no more nra tnA wooTiiho- And weariness. Isaiah also prophesied that there should also oe more intimate leiiow ship between- God and man. " . - , tHow" shall this' come about? Scholars do not agree. Some expect it at the second coming of Christ, . while others believe that it will come about through the process of love, enlightenment and regeneration as a j result of 'the1 preaching and practice of the gospel of Jesus Christ, How ever it comes about, Christian respon- ' sibility Is the same. Each Christian " should do' all in, his, or .her, power to bring about a world of peaee, 'plenty, and theeign of, God's power in the lives of mew.iJJr- V -- Paul's ' message has ' muclt meaning for our day.-1 He presents. God as , ruler and owner wf the universe, who has " been-' working .'through .nations and their peoples to "accomplish His will. . Paul declares, "He has made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the-earth.? This concept of "one blood" has not ibeen generally accepted by ihe people of the world. ; . It U said that the Koreans' have a humorous legend..; Althopghit is legendary, it has a sharp point to puncture the theory of race suprem acy, particularly our white pride: It goes something like this: ' ' , t When the Creator first made man, he mixed just the proper ingrfdients, poured it into a mold, and put the ingredients into the oven to bake. ' Upon the first trial he left man in the oven to bake.' When he took him ut, he was oo black: But God didn't throw' him away. He used him to , start the Negro race. ' .. , . , Then the' Creator mixed up another batch of material and put it in the oven.1 This time he took it out too soon.-1 He was ' disappointed that was not dark enough, but he didnt throw it away. ', He used it. to start the white race. ' But the third time the' Creator was entirely successful. .; He took man out of . the oven at exactly the proper moment . At"last he had succeeded iri making a man just the right color yellow. , ' . ' Frpm a Korean's standpoint, this is j o o-nAfl Btnrv. but each, race is guilty of the same racial "pride," and has its own way of, saying, 'Tfe are. su perior." While most oi us are uns enough laugh 'at these . absurd TiTinHii-oa ' nnrl unfounded ' assump tions,? do our actions towards others dispel, their feeling tnat we xnimc we T Let us remember that wherever the gospel of, Jesus Christ is truly preached ana practicea, it in evitably leads in the direction of true Christian brotnernooa, , , . .."V; r '.CIji.j.NI..';'j' go to C3:z; 4 , 4 n Yet, definitely I Startled? Why? How do you answer Lucy when she comes to the breakfast table and announces, Tm not going to school today r You know, Lucy fHow do you answer when Lucy comes in ne . smudged with dirt and says, Tm not going to take a bath!" You know, Lucy bathes. ' . How do you answer when Lacy, threatened with Illness, says, "I'm not going to take that medicinef You know, she takes It. " Why aU this timidity, then, in the realm of Spiritnal guidance and moral training? Going to wait and let her decide what Church shell go .to when she's old enough? Don't fool yourselL By that time shell probably believe that a decision neglected by her parents during her first twenty years might not be necessary at alL Yon didn't wait until she was "old enough" to decide she should go to school. Afraid shell later snccmnb to the old story about " . . too much religion when I was young .' parents made me go? This tale is obviously false. Jest because she takes a bath tonight doesn't mean bell discontinue them at the age of twenty-one. What sun I say to Lucy when she announces 'she doesn't Eke Sunday School and Church. That's eey. Be consistent. "N By firmness and example yon can show her that -; chntch-going is a necessity.
