, "Man shall not live by bread alone,
but by every word that proceedeth
out of the mouth of God."
Why? Because roan la a rellglou
being destined for immortality. His
life Is not to be measured by time,
but by eternity. Temporal Interests,
however pressing and Important.
cannot make up tbe sum of his efforts.
If they do, then he Is courting- havoc
and disaster.
Lent Is now at hand, when tne
Church raises her voice In solemn and
affectionate warning, calling men to
stoD and take stock of themselves.
Are they living according to the fun
damental law of human life? While
they may not be guilty of vice and
debauchery, yet at the same time,
they may be disregarding those essen
tial conditions which alone can insure
success In its truest sense. These con
dltions are tersely summed up in the
text of Scripture quoted above. In
other words, the guiding principle ol
human life is to "fear God and keep
His commandments."
This Lenten warning is necessary
for all. Not only to the man who is
indulging his passions and vlcea and
sinking lower and lower In the mire
of sensuality, but also for those whose
conduct appears respectable.
The man who Is absorbed in bust-
mA lirynr- nil hU nhltirnftons of
a religious nature, or the woman wh(
is as conspicuous at the social function
as she Is inconspicuous in the House
of God, are both In extreme danger
because they are not directing the
course of their lives according to the
chart and compass of God's Hol
Word. If too late, they find out their
mistake, what will it profit the one
that she had a ' whole houseful of
bric-a-brac, trophies won at the bridge
whlst table, or to the other, that hi
amassed a million dollars?. Nor cat
they complain of unfair treatment, be
cause they will be served as they them
selves served their employees whi
proved unprofitable. It Is simply t
question of fitness. The law of Go.
Is to fit us for eternal life with all it.
Illimitable and unrivalled opportunl
ties for service under God. If, there
fore, we ignore that law, how can w
hope to be accepted?
Our Church docs not, like some re
Melons bodies, put certain amusement
and luxuries under the ban becaus
of the danger of their misuse an
abuse. But this is not because she I;
lax, but because she places the re
iponslblllty where It rightly belong.'
on the Individual. She Instructs hln
In those priclples which should gover:
Mis conduct and leaves the Issue to his
"nllghtened conscience and sanctified
ommon sense. By so doing she re
jects the rights of the Individual
conscience and the Individual llbert;
.vhlch Is the birthright of the Chris
Ian. But this method increases tin
personal responsibility of the indi
idual, for which he will have to ren
er an account.
As one appointed f ir that ptirpnife
r call on all tho?e for whom I am re
ponslble, to make the rn't of tin
.eiitcn opportunity. For s .me '.f ut,
il may be tbe !t we shall en.'oy. I-1
s then not forfeit the good and b.i
log It will bring. For as one of out
vn poets has said:
Life is real! Life is onrnet!
And the grave Is not Its goal;
)ust thou art, to duxt return. t.
Was not spoken of the soul."
