Lesson Text:
29; 21:28-32.
Matthew 7:24-
The question for our consider
ation today is: How can we
eliminate the gap between our
professions of Christianity and
our practice of it? , .' . '.. ' ::
We have neon stuflyi g tne
"Marks of Citizenship in the
Kingdom of God" for the past
twelve sessions, We now close
this unit by dealing with the
vitally ' important ' problem of
putting our Christian principles
into practice.
To live successfully as a citi
zen in the kingdom of God, one
must of necessity heed -the
teachings of Jesus, for . Jesus
was the greatest teacher who
ever instructed disciples. He
repeatedly, astonished his . listen
ers with his abilty. ' .
Jesus . taught .wth authority-
authority which arose from th;
way in Which he refreshed their j
souls. -. The authority of Jesus,
too, rested on his sound spirit
ual discipline..' He, knew the law
and the prophets. He meditated
on them day and night. And his
authority was rooted in a- holy
life, and in his faith. And from
all these qualities came another
clement Of his authority;- a
moral quality of life his deep
concern and abiding love for his
lpeople. Jesus' Jove knew no
boundaries or tears oi contamin
ation. It acknowledged sinners
as . well as innocent, children. He
was a unique Being.
Jesus' teachings were an at
tempt to get men to build houses
of personality according to his j
- . ' .Fence-sitting isn't the safest occupation for
the small fry, even if it is fun.
But fence-sitting for grown-ups is neither
safe nor fun!
'' . :'A man has to take a stand. He must lei the
world know his convictions. He must live them!
The principles in which we believe can perish
' while we dawdle uncommitted, uncertain or un
churched. . ' -V;;:;:- " . ,
Behind the iron curtain men who are deter-
ruined to overthrow freedom and. faith hide
neither their communism nor their atheism.
Here in America on a Sunday morning; no
man Can afford to sit on the fence IF he believes
' in God, and in the right to worship Him in the
Church of his choice.

required ' much - planning and
thinking. He therefore called
on men to consider the type of
housing they, were constructing.
Jesus used the. parable of the
rhttii who'' built, his houste" on
rock, and it endured; and of the
man who built : his house on
sand, and it was swept away.
A home built without Christ is
built on sand. A business on
the laws of the jungle rather
than on Christ may make money,
but it cannot endure in the long
run the floods - of hate, bitter
ness and jealousy will destroy
ft. A listener who hears the
best ought to flo' the best. To
hear the right but da the wrong,
to see the beautiful but choose
the ugly,' .'-to know the (rue but
choose .the false is gross sin.
Such timbers in your house of
personality are like termite-
eaten beams. Such structures
cannot stand.
In the parable of two sons in
Matthew 21:28-32, we" have a
typical response to a father's re
quest. One son says, "I will,
but does not. The second son
says, "I won't," but does .the
father's will.
Some religious folks simply
do hot grow. They arrive at a
certain point and are satisfied.
This is stagnation. Some, how
ever, yearn- to, be better than
they are. James, John, Peter,
Mary, Zaccheus and countless
others who took the teachings
of Jesus seriously all came to a
new life. They learned to de
pend on themselves. They soon
discovered that there was a
power not their own that helped
them work righteousness.
When someone raised the
question concerning work and
fair play, Jesus seized the op
portunity to tell a parable about
laborers and : their hours of
work (Matthew 20:1-16). Some
mere were hired early in the day
and did a full day's work; some
were hired half-Way through the
day; still others were hired al
most at the end of the day; yet
their employer paid each man
an equal amount. This system
Hid not suit all. Those who had
done a full day's work felt .it
was grossly unjust But the
employer,' apparently recogniz
isng the need of such man and
the hunger of his household, felt
he had a right to pay as he saw
fit So Jesus refuted the merit
system good works as a means
of gaining spiritual values. ( '
Regardless oi when a man
starts working, - in God's vine
yard, each man receives the
same sense of inner peace, poise
and power. - He. who is a doer of
I1 ' the Word finds the same inner
qualities of life regardless of
longevity . of. service. God is a
