contacted the herald office and was put in i touch with the owner try a small j advertisement it pays ii in the kingdom of christ there must be unquestioned loyalty if then he is the king ot our lives we as christian men and women will want to live in accordance with his blessed will loyalty to christ leadsto the best kind of living it surpasses any ex perience of loyalty to a cause or a human personality instead of hin dering or limiting our development it opens wide the grand vistas of a file altogether worth while it is a hfe i wen ordered 6 33 much of the distress in which men and women find themselves i caused by the fact that their lives are not well ordered they live in a constant flurry of uncertainty in decision and disorder they have no proper center for their lives and consequently they are lopsided and lacking in real usefulness see how delightfully right is the experience and activity of a follow er of christ he is the center the interests of his kingdom are the first in thought his righteousness is the rule of life other things well all that is necessary god adds day by day when the center of life is right everything else is right when that is wrong all is wrong is our life centered in christ ii kind 7 12 spiritual principles apply to daily living to our attitude toward our fellow men here we have the to- alled golden rule it is not the way of salvation it is a summary of the teaching of the law and proph ets but it does provide us with a splendid principle of dally conduct our active concern each day and in every touch with others is to be how would i like them to deal with me let me do thus to them that is a higher standard than you think until you really try it only christ can enable you to do it 111 fruitful 7 16 20 two fruit trees or vmes may look almost alike until the fruit appears and then we learn the true char cter of each whether good or bad every life brings forth some kind of fruit and in its outward manifes tation the life speaks of the inward condition of the life unclean and i profane speech hatred dishonest and trickery these come out of an evil heart righteousness pure and kindly speech thoughtful actions honest and straightforward dealing these speak of the good heart the one whose life is centered n christ see above is a vine aftt god s own planting his roots stnkt deep down into the grace and mercy of god and his fruit is the christ like grace of christian charade r see gal 5 22 23 iv genuine 7 21 23 lap service will not do v 21 even an imitation of the real srv ice of god s people but rendei t rt without the backing of a life of faith will result only in disappointment and our lord s own disavowal vv 22 23 the opposite of that is equally rue the real child of god works for christ he speaks of his lord dnd calls on his name but in ind through it all there is the ev ient ring of sincerity and genuine ims which marks it as the real hing one does not hear much mentioi hese days of hypocrites in tht hurch perhaps we are too polite to speak of them or it may be th it we think them too obvious to nei d pointing out but they are then going through the motions ol a christian life talking the language nd imitating the works but com letely dead spiritually v weu grounded 7 2429 the figure of speech changes in lead of being likened to fruit trees ten s lives are said to be like ouses with their various kinds f undattons and superstructures the figure is an interesting and nstructive one- there is only on foundation upon which one can buil i a christian life other oundati can no man lay than that is la t which is jesus christ i co 11 therein lies tht tolly ol the n rnist or liberal he has denied ot rejected the only foundation ar yet tries to build a house of chn tian character when the real pro ferns of life strike he goes down ir utn on the other hand let no christi i mho has laid a foundation on it rock fail to go on and build up it thus grounded his houst faith will stand though the wind ram and floods ol life seek to u t down of that kind of house- vt ead that it fell not for it wj fuunded upon a rock v 25 this lesson will afford many pro essed christians a chance to test their lives and their loyalties by ods standards fire damage in georgetown for the year 1944 amounted to only 75 according to the report submitted to council last week by fire chief don ald latimer a
