Page I THE Wedneidiy 11 New minister at Baptist The congregation of Mountainview Baptist Church have welcomed pastor Tom as their new minister Prior to accepting the Georgetown charge he served the communities of Mountsberg and while studying at Divinity College Today explained Rev so many do not even sec he church as a possibility in their lives but this is eventually because hey have never been confronted Clergy Comments lOnenessI Thorn hi MaunOlnvlew lit Church One of he great truths of our human experience is contained in the very first encounter of man wilh God in the Garden of Eden Having disobeyed Gods com mandment Adam and Eve first Knew that they were naked and then hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God Gen Here arc the two bask results of sin In the lives of all human beings separation from each other symbolized by the protective covering of clothes and separallon from God Certainly twentieth century literature Is no stranger the theme of separation or alienation The heroes of Camus Sartre Kafka Hemingway and Salinger to name only a few arc frequently unable to communicate with others Their punishment Is to suffer and die in Isolation These characters arc not simply literary phenomena They reflect a growing paralysis inflicted on most of Western society which prevents man from relating neighbors friends and even family Even sadder Is our willing acceptance of this Im personal indifferent isolationist lifestyle How often for example do you experience deep communication with family and friends How often do you sense a relationship of Joy with your neighbors How many of your conversations end contacts in life on the other hand centre around small talk Insignificant details things that never lead you into deeper knowledge of the other per son Perhaps the highrise apartment Is no accidental symbol of our twentieth century way of life for it represents a number of separate lives each divided from the other each totally anonymous and independent each able to exist without somueh as a word to a neighbor down the hall This experience of separation from fellow human beings is more Intense in the twentieth century than in any of the last fifteen hundred This is because man has lost the common ground of belief which has held together Christian society for centuries and has returned lo the relativism of the days of the Judges when each man did what was right In his own eyes 17 In other words each person has developed his own standards of right and wrong his own attitudes toward life his own goals We have all experienced In our relationships this deep sense of being cut off from others from wife husband children parents friends and it is because we are often nil going In a different direction There is no adhesive as it were to hold together our varying lives and experiences Housewives often feci plagued for example by a routine of washing ironing shopping etc which feel unable to share with a husband whose life Is a con tinual of deals and office work Or the teenager feels hi5 parents are too busy to hear of his problems in math or his latest girlfriend For every human being from Adam to the twentieth century the plight is the same every man is caught in a self centred search for his own personal fulfillment it is this very search which separates him from other human beings Thank God that there is a way out of the maze It to people caught in such a hopeless situation that Jesus Christ came to offer complete liberation and His liberation bought by His own death on Calvarys cross will free the Individual from his own selfseeking way of life his ugly habits selfishnesses and anxieties enduring complete separation from His own Father on the cross Jesus God In the flesh gave us the opportunity to return to Him to undo the separation begun in the Garden of Eden and to experience oneness with other Christians That they all may be one as thou Father art in me I in thee that they be one in us Jesus offers this eternal sense of peace Joy and oneness with Him and with others to all who come Him Come to Church ST GEORGES ANGLICAN CHURCH Radon ThtRtvd R NURSERY CARE Immanuel Lutheran
