COMPARE!
nn here recently appeared large headlines in our metropolitan papers I reading, “ Peace in Korea” . However, it seems that there are com paratively few people who even dare to hope that such is a true state ment concerning the actual conditions which prevail in that war-tom country. One is reminded, by way of contrast, concerning the “ peace” which is revealed in the Word of God. For only in His Word do we find what real peace consists of and the way by which it might be obtained. There are two aspects of peace revealed in Scripture. One is “ peace with God” ; the other is the “ peace of God.” Peace with God comes through acceptance of Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour. That is a judicial relationship which begins at the time of conversion. But the peace of God is of an entirely different type. That has to do more with fellow ship. W e can be at peace with God and yet not enjoy the peace of God. Peace with God is an act that is consummated once and for all in behalf of those who are bom again. But the peace of God is that which needs to be kept alive through daily contact and fellowship with Jesus Christ in simple faith, trusting in Him, and yielding moment by moment to His loving will. If we would know the peace of God for our own lives, we must follow the pattern of our Lord’s life insofar as it is humanly possible to do so. We must submit our wills to that of our heavenly Father. Where there is unrest in .a Christian’s life, it is due in large measure to the fact that he is endeavoring to project his will into his daily activities rather than submitting them to the Father’s will. We note also that throughout His life , our Lord manifested a spirit of meekness. So frequently we do not know the peace which He wants us to realize in our lives because of our proud, haughty, arrogant spirit which we so often reveal. If we would know that peace of Christ which passeth all understanding, we need to study very carefully the life of our Lord and follow Him as closely as possible in all of life. Kinsey: the Christian Viewpoint Probably no other book in modern times has been so widely publi cized as Alfred Kinsey’s new book on the sexual behaviour of females. Christians cannot ignore the book. Every thinking Christian will want to have an adequate answer for himself and for his unsaved friends. And every Christian parent will want an answer— from a sound Christian viewpoint— for his children. Next month such an answer will be presented in detail. W e have asked Dr. Clyde M. Narramore, who is perhaps the foremost Christian psychologist in America today, to give an adequate answer. Because of the vital importance of this to every Christian we urge each of you faithful readers to get this into the hands of as many as possible. W e believe the Kinsey hook is nothing but diabolical poison. This is your opportunity to counteract that poison. To help you get Dr. Narramore’s article into the hands of your friends we are making a special subscription offer of six months for just one dollar or six, six- month subscriptions for just $5. W e suggest you select families with children from your church. Be prayerful in your selection. W e’ll send each a gift card if you request it. Orders must be mailed within the next seven days for this special offer. A ll subscriptions will start with the issue containing the Kinsey report. Thank you for your interest in Christian morality.
