preachers proclaimed It this torment was always for someone else Those who held this tenet had some still have wonderful ways of knowing they were among the elect and that certain other people were simply outside the pale An overreaction to this Judgmental approach Is evident today Many people have ceased apparently to believe in either heaven or hell and have evolved a simplistic earthbound Christianity and in some places sermons have become tidy little on nice behaviour and the people listening to the same have become In the Apostle Pauls memorable words of all men most miserable There those who maintain that heaven and hell are the same state In which winch alt are together but he who has lived to the flesh is miserable because he no longer has any while he who has lived to the spirit is in sheer because he now has nothing Jesus gave some encouragement to a conception of purgatory when he said He shall not come out until he lias paid the uttermost farthing implying that there would be a time when he would come out His figure of Gehenna we should remember is derived from the garbage fires of Jerusalem which were always burning which consumed nothing but rubbish and which give no warrant whatever in my opinion for the flagrantly unjust horror of the old notions of hellfire infused as they often were with misanthropic attitudes Tennyson who was a good poet and not a bad theologian believed That nothing walks with aimless feet That not one life shall be destroyed Or cast as rubbish to the void When God has made the pile complete CHURCHILL COMMUNITY CHURCH

of FRIDAY JUNE CominenunR generosity than on that of severity Not only do we not know enough to seat ourselves on the judgment throne of God but we ore simply not good enough to do that Theres so much good in the worst of us And so much bad In the best of us That It 111 becomes the first of us To say anything about the rest of us We surely have enough to do with the working out of our own salvation and this means the demonstrating of the faith that is Gods merciful gift to make us avoid pronouncements about other peoples lack of salvation or faith or what have you and there are perhaps few more unpleasant or more selfrighteous sins than a readiness to do so The mania for exclusion la one of the blemishes on a good deal of Christianity There is still far too great a tendency in our organized churchlife to forbid silence or disown those who follow not with even in spite of the fact that Jesus Head and of the Church peremptorily rebuked such behaviour among his disciples In my communion the fencing of the Lords Table Is not nearly so blunt and discouraging to the seeker after the Lord as it once was and I thank God that I have the privilege to invite all those who love the Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity to come and partake at His Table I must ever recognize that it is His Table and I never become more than a guest of His grace and favor He who is not against us is for us said Jesus on one occasion thereby rebuking a narrowness from which the first disciples were far from free and which we after 2000 years have never fully overcome That the way of life is narrow but ennobling and lovely docs not mean that vast multitudes may not take it when they see others radiantly pursuing it It us shun then the harsh of the past its passion to exclude all but the likeminded and let us say Everyone Most Welcome and really mean It Twenty years ago many the kind of kids our people dreamed of earning the mother didnt want us to play salary lliey cant live on today There are
