At the Last Supper, he spoke his great commandment: “Love one an- other.†In the Garden of Gethsemane, he uttered his terrible warning: “All they that take the sword shall perish by the sword.†He cried out from the Cross: “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do."

The cast of'characters in his drama can, indeed, be seen in all placés and in all ages. “Beware of the scribes, which de- sire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the high- est seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts; which devour Widows’ houses, and for a show make long prayers.†In this northernhemisphere, na- ture’s testimony reinforces the Easter message. Deathâ€"like winter shrinks away before lively spring; its shroud of snow gives place to a. mantle of green, and stark branches now break once more into bud. Yet the state of the world bears witness that innumer- able hearts are still cold to spiritual growth.

We may not be able to make as glittering a contribution to life as some people, but at least it can be vital and real. The faith of our fathers can be given power and vitality, as we conse- crate ourselves sincerely to the God of our Fathers The God who worked in the‘prophets. ap- ostles, saints, is still able to work in and through us. We must lay hold on Him. We must open the treasure chest of our religious traditions, and rejoice in all that we have received. Then we must work out the privilege of our Christian tradition. by dedicat- ing ourselves wholeheartedly to the God who spoke to and used our fathers â€" the God who wants to use us. w-u.¢n-__m-nc é Yangtze Pagoda f Restaurant THE BEST E 3 PLACE TO ' EAT Exclusive i Cqumjable It takes wise counsel on the part of Christian parents and leaders to help young people to enter into the faith “which has been once deliveredâ€. It takes patience and love for the spiri- tual welfare of our children and young people to show them, that while God deals differently with" every person, it is not exclusive of what has gone on in the past. Every person has his particular contribution to make to life, but it is always in the relation of what has gone on before. The greatscientiï¬c disooveries of OUL“ generation have been made by‘ men who received a great am-t aunt of their knowledge froml those scientists who laid the foundations for their discourses in the past. The tragedy often arises, when a child gives up the faith of his parents because he ï¬nds nothing in it ‘which challenges him to respond to God himself, Some- times young people imagine that life will be robbed of individual- ity if he accepts everything his parents tell him. So they step away from the ‘faith of their fa- thers', foolishly imagining that it is necessary for them to start from ‘scratch’ and discover a faith for themselves. There are many people who have been brought up in Chris- tian homes, who sometimes long for an emotional experience of God after the pattern of an in- stantaneous conversion. God draws people to Himself in many and varied ways. But the person who accepts Christ under the quiet instruction of loving par- ents, is no less a Christian, than someone who has been suddenly confronted with his spiritual need’ and makes a response to the claims of Christ. The inherited faith is no less important than the ï¬rst time discovery of the faith. In the Bible. Isaac stands out as a representative of inherited religion. He had the grace to recognize the best in Abraham‘s faith and he held on to it. He did not ‘apc’ his father without using his reason. He did not follow in his father's footsteps merely be- cause he thought it was the prop- er thing to do, He did not ven- erate his father‘s religion. with- out worshipping and serving his father’s God. His faithwas per- sonal and vital. eventhough it had been taught to him from earliest childhood. Nearly New Clothes for the entire family TU. 4-3910 TU. 4-3341 It is wonderful to be the heir of a great tradition of men and women who have 'kept the Faith'. It is a great thing to be able to sing from the heart, “Faith of our Fathers. living still". Our Christian faith is an historic re- ligion which we have received from others. It can only be pres- erved when we recognize the best in our inheritance, and. ï¬ght ear- nestly to keep it.
