PACE TEN ~ THE DAILY -TIMES-GAZETTE LET'S ALL GO TO C SATURDAY, MAY 15, 1948 REGULARLY The Firey Test of Moral URCH Courage SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON FOR SUNDAY, MAY 23, 1948 By NEWMAN CAMPBELL Courage, both moral and physi. cal, is more necessary in the world today than ever before. Fear is rampant. Nations and ideologies are opposed in this modern world, and all peoples fear the future. Fear is the most primitive of all emotions. It is felt by animals and men alike, However, courage also is inborn in humans and also in the animal world, and is the most admired of all virtues. To call a man '"yel- low" or cowardly, is the final in- sult, Moral and physical courage are the hope of the world, for our leaders and for the common man. With wisdom coupled with courage our problems can be worked out and the world become a place of co-operation and security. In the time of which we are studying, when the Jewish people were exiled to Babylonia, they suf- fered from terror, too. If anyone dared disobey the whim of a tyran. nical king, who had absolute power of life and death, he might be killed in the most brutal manner. If he made enemies, he was in grave danger of losing his life, which was indeed a cheap com- modity in those days. High moral and physical courage was needed to do what one knew was right, re- gardless of circumstances. Nebuchadnezzar, king of Baby- lonia, who conquered Jerusalem and took its king and people cap- tive, ordered his master of eunuchs to bring to the king's court four Jewish boys who were well born and comely, to be brought up to learn the Babyloftian lan. guage and to be educated in palace routine, The four chosen were Daniel, Hannaniah, Mishael and Azariah. Their names were changed to Bel- teshazzar, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Now the food and wine served at the king's table was not what Hebrew youths were allowed by their religious law, so Daniel told those in charge over him. He begged that he be not made to de- file himself, and finally won per- mission to live on pulse (a sort of porridge) and water for 10 days to | Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abeunego in wisdom and under- standing. Nebuchadnezzar made a golden image and decreed that all his people must bow down before and worship it. Everyone did but the Jewish * youths, Shadrach, Mesh. ach and Abednego, and when the king was told of this he was fur- ious and ordered them thrown into a fiery furnace. The three were bound and cast into the furnace, where they sang and glorified God, not being harmed. When the king saw that their courage was reward- ed by this miracle, he acknowledg- ed their God was all-powerful and promoted the three to places of high honor. In the reign of Belshazzar Dan. jel told that king that he was liv- ing sinfully, but Daniel was re- warded, nevertheless, by being clothed in scarlet and having a golden chain put about his neck. When Darius cam: to the throne Daniel was high in his favor. Daniel had enemies in the king- dom, however, who conspired to destroy him. They consulted to- gether and decided that only through his religion could they bring this about. They persuaded the king to sign a. decree that any- one who addressed a petition to any but the king would be thrown into a den of lions. : ' Now when Daniel heard that the decree was signed, he went to his chamber, opened the window to- ward Jerusalem, and kneeled in prayer three times a day, as was his custom. This was told to the king, and very reluctantly and sadly, the king ordered Daniel thrown into the lions' den, That night the king could not sleep, and early in the morning he hastened to the opening of the den which he had sealed the previous night with his own seal, and called to Daniel: "O Daniel of the living God, is thy God able to deliver thee from the lions?" Daniel replied: "O King, my God hath sent His angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths and they have not hurt me." The astound- * The Solden Text Daniel in the den of lions, ; "Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are His,"--Daniel 2:20, We Are Unworthy Servants |By REV. R. BARCLAY WARREN | Jesus knew the temptations that would befall us for He was in -all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. He knew that the Christian migh tfeel that he was making a great sacrifice in his serv+ ice for God. So he asked, "Will any of you, who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep, say to him when he has 'come in from the field, 'Come at once and sit down at table'? Will he not rather say to him, 'Prepare supper for me, and gird yourself and serve me, till I eat and drink; and afterward you shall eat and drink'?
