Earl Childer Lesson Text, Josh 23:1-13 1 And it came to pass after many lays, when Jehovah had given reat unto Israel from all their enemies round about, and Joshua wa old and well stricken in years; 2 that Joshua called for all Israel, for their elders and for their heada. and for their judge and for their of ficers, and said unto them, I am old and well stricken in years: 3 and ye have seen all that Jehovah your God hath done unto all these na tions because of you; for Jehovah your God, he It is that hath fought for you. 4 Behold, I have allotted unto you these nations that remain, to be an nheritanee for vour tribes, from the Tordan, with all the nations that I hav cut off, even unto the great ea toward the going down of the sun. 6 And Jehovah your God, he will thrust there out from before you. nd drive them from out of your ight; and y shall noaseas their land, as Jehoh your Cod spake unto you. ft Therefore be ye very corae-eous o Veen and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that turn rot aside therefrom to the ri-V bend or to the left; 7 that ve com not amon thee nlnn. these that remain among yoo eiher make mention of the name of feir gods, nor e-nse to swear bv them, nor bow down yourselves unto thm: 8 but eleeve unto Jehovah your God. as e have done unto this day. 9 For Jehovah hath driven out from before vou great nations and strong; hut aa for you, no man hath stood be fore vou unto this day. 10 One man of yon ahall chase a thousand: for Jehovah your God, he it is that fighteth for you, aa he spake unto vou. 11 Take food heed therefore unto "ourselves, that ye love Jehovah your God. 12 Else if ye do all go back, and cleave unto the remnant of these na tions even these that remain among von. and make marriages with them. and go in unto them, and they unto yon: 13 know for certaintv thnt Jehov ah vour God will no more drive these "stiona from out of yonr aicht; but hev "hell be a snare and a trap untn a vou. ann a scour-re in von- siaes. em horns 'n vour rm, until ve nerish from off tbls ood land which Jehovah vour God hath eivn "nu.

He wa wise wise and true to the trust committed to his car by Jehovah. I. Th People Are Summoned (v. 1-2) After years of war God haa given his people not only victory but reat. O, ho wpreciou a privilege to rest after toil. What can compare with the relief of tense nerves that followed the signing of the armistice T We are told that th men at th front did not cheer or parade but dropped to the ground and went to sleep. After vic tory, rest. We ar also promised rest after the battles of lif hav been won in the words, "Com unto m and I will giv you rest II. The People Reminded, (vs. 3-5) Israel waa continually forgetting God and plunging into Idolatrous wor ship. Many in our land hav also for gotten him. Seventy per cent of all the people living in the United States are not members of any church, either Protestant or Roman Catholic. They have forgotten the one who gives them their daily bread. To help us to remember Christ gave th Memorial Supper on the night of his betrayal. In partaking of the loaf and cup, hi spiritual body and blood we are reminded of the great funda mental facts of the rospet, which are his death, burial and resurrection. III. The People Are Exhorted (v C-ll) The nation ia instructed to turn neither to the right hand nor the left. In every community there ar general. lv two different parties known aa the Radicals and the Conservatives. The Radicals perhaps want to move too rapidly while the Conservatives are too slow. A safe course, and the one here advocated by Joshua, ia to keep Again the people are warned of the It the middle of the road. danger of false god. We may feel hat we are free' from this sin. but America is a land of many idols. They perhaps are not images of wood brass, gold, or ailver before which the people prostrate themselves, but too many are worshiping at th shrines of Mammon, lust, and fashion. IV. Results of Disobedience Stated (vs. 12-13) God' people can never compromise with sin in any' form. Whenever they do they are doomed to humiliating de feat. We have too many so-called leaders today who are willing to com promise the word of God and cut it to fit the views of any cuss or cult. When men who call themselves Chris tians do not believe in the inspira tion of the Bible we are not called up on to exercise patience but should OF GENERAL MILITARY MINING California Man Who Is Inves- tiKatinjr Military Affairs of Allied Countries finds Uni versal Training Popular NEED ARMY OF 200,000 Joshua was growing old, but a noble . loudly condemn such a position.

He continued: "I intend to fully investigate th report that American soldiers were needlessly sacrificed in some of the cloaing drivea of the war.
