ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, THURSDAY, JULY lith, 1963 ORONOWEEKLY TIMES Auilhorized as Second Clasg Mail, Polt Qtfie Department, Ottawa. * Establisled in 1938 ly R. A. Forrester Roy C. Forre ster - Editor and Manager The Deficit Grows Reeent events in Ottawa are proving that no one bas thc immediate or long-term answers to Canada's econormi problems that will meet general approval. The presentation of tbe budget has however sbattered the mytl of 60 days of action wiVb firmness wbidh was presented by the Liberals in the latter days of the election cainpalgn. ,"The 60 Days off kction" by the Llberails and the "Visions of Vhe North" by the Conservýatives, some f ew years ago 'have been nothing more than oatob phrases to ýcatch the imagination of Vhe voter. There is of course tbe tact tbat the real value of the budget in promoting Canada cannot be judge'd et this time. The resuits and trend will show within the year and judging of the budget may then be ba'sed on tactual information. The present and immediate need is one of setting the b udget in order that tbe business world may make their adjustments a-nd carry on. Decisiveness ani firmness in tbe budget bas ý_nVbeen carried out by tbe minister who no doubt brought _ýlrh ai'budgeýt under the pressure of, the "60 days of de- csn"and has found bi.msell in somewbat of a dileffia. Thie most glaring lesson from the present budget and Vhe introduction 0f the-ax on manullacturifig macbinery 'and building, is that the government'is forced to open new aven- ues If taxation to pay or attemp o pay their rising costs of subsidies and give-aways. in the case of the $500.00 grant toward new bornes it can only add o gavernment costs and thug necessitate new sources 0f revenue. If Canad'ansý demand tbe give-aways they 'must also be ready o accept Vo p,-ay for them through more and higiber taxation. Mr. Coyne in recent years travelled the country voicing the view that C-anadians must live within their Tneans and go they must. Let, us. again refer to the Glassco Report where the report, strongily feelstibat government experiicitures can le cut thus providing a cut to the taxpayer. Some action is being taken, apparently, in hs course, tbrough tbe armed forces and this seems to be.one of the greater salvations for tbe government. Presentiy Canadians are faced aith a new tax and the clef icit stili exists as it has in the past f ew years. The answer s yet to corne.

Per. laps he was over-beating and guil, ty of tbe gross sin of self-righteous- ness but embed'ded in bis words is tbe tact of Bible teaching and revelation that "mnan needs Vo ho saved." The very tact of misery, dis. ease, crime and war points to man's sn, for al Speak 0f selfisl- ness, pride, ignorance, wilfulness and carelessness. A Christian advertisement in a 'Tokyo newspaper put hs truth in a vivid7 helptul ligiht. It desclbed how, Vrougb Vile careIessnel ot one man, smalIpox spre ad througli the city and'even entered the In- perial Palace. The article contin- ued, "There is a demion worse than the ýdemon of disense; it is the de- mon 0f-sin. While we>can cure Vhe disease. the careless sinful atti- tude of îlot one man is not cbýang' ed, and he could do a like thing in anotiler way, unless be accepts the stewardship of lite in tbe Christian way" Only tbrough God aind Jesus Christ whom He las sent is it pos- sible o overcome sin and to get a nlew lite, icleansed and, set free t rom that sin which is basic to carelessness, ignorance, pride and selfisbness. The Bible takes gin in dead seri- ousness. Unlike m'any modemn re- ligionists who seek to tind excuses for sin as a condition of dreadful estrangemeni f rom God, who is the sole source of ail well-.being. They knew that apart from God, man is a lo0st sinner, unable Vo save 'himself or find true happines.. And 50. we say that sin i5 very real and salvation is very necessary. What is the Nature ot Salvation? The young man mentioned.above believed that one is saved by God out ot a literai bell off fire and brim- stone. Tie. detinitions or helI may differ, but most people would agree that salaation is Vo save us f rom* sometbing, or out 0f sometlhng. Many people know that tbey don't have to wait until ibis lite is done to experience bell. That wbich sears Vhe spirit is far greater tor- ture and tragedy than that which sears the filesli. We need to be saved f rom the bell of circums'tanc- es, the bell of wrong attitudes, wrong rel'ationsbips, purposeless- ness, ignorance and self-expression but Itbis is far f rom the whole truth. Sa lvation is not tbe act ot God reacbin'g down from above or reaching in trom without o pluck us out 0f lite, setting us in a new set of circumstjances, but rather Vo bring us into 'a riglht relationship with lite, which means a rightre- latîonship w'th God, witt our tel- 10w nmen and witb nature. IV means that we are saved o something. We -are saved into something, rath- er Vlhan out of somnetbing. We need salvation every day, adi aiong Vhe way, in everythinig andi every cx- perience. SaIvation is cxperiencing the joy of the redecmed. Cnristian- ity is a redeemilig fellowship, flot abiding iby a set of' regulations whicli «reates a "holier than thou" attitude. The Christian Oburchl is tihe congregation of Vhe redeemed and the redeemng. We must be saved into the beavenly if e, (not just out 0f bell), into lite lere atsd now, into rigît relationships, into lite, into understanding, and into) love. Sif we thînk that because.we have ýdone enoug'b good îhings in hs Efe, eventually Cod 15 going ta transplant us itodifferent 1sur- voundings, and fve are going Vto bc happy forever and ever, lot us re- Ialize ihat unlese> we experieiice something of it now, we'll1 be sadly out off place (later on. Surely, the nature ot salvation is o save us i We need God's salvation because every one of us las sinner - - "Ev- ery oes as t allen short 0f Vthe glory off God; " "If we say We bave no0 sin we deceive ourselves and Vhe truth is noV in us;" "«All we like sbeep have gone astray." 50o, if man through sin l'as become es- tranged from)r God, there needs to le an Atonement -- an at-one-ment. We ýcan neyer hàve peace, better ,conditions, rugît relations wit<h oth- er men, or be lealthy and in tune witl nature. wbile we are estrang- ed from God. Man's spiritual and Physical well-being is seriouslly handicapped and limited; le can- noV be lis true self; lie cannot fui- fM1 the purpose for which he was created, When lie is estranged from- God, The Hebrew people over many generations depended upon sacri- fice in order to bring about Vhis at-one-ment. The worshipper, a- ware of having sinned, came Vo VIe altaàr of God, ýcarrying an aia Vo be sacrificed. Laying his hand on the head off hs victim, the wor- sIipper identifiedi himself with it, and offered bis own lite o God, along witl Vhe blood wlicb stood for the life Of Vie animal. In bis lest sense, man was giving hlm- self Vo God through sacrifice. By this, and by the eating 0f Vtle flesl of the sacrificed animal, in a ritu- ai meal, Vhe renewal otf feilowship beîween God ;and hs penitent wor- shipper was symbolized. He re we see something off Vhe meaning of communion in our Christian fellow- slhip, for the, idea off sacrifice developed and was refined over the generations. Abraham, feeling le was doing What was right,, ,went Vo off er a bumnan lite, Isaac, lis dearest, possession. We are toldi it was noV required 'and a lamb, was providedi in its place. In our Seripturs we read tram Islal of the "Suffsing' Servant"-:who was "like a seesp that was led Vo ths slaugbter." .When Jesus came Vo be baptised, John tle Baptist said Vo Vie people "'Behold hs L-amb 0f, God tInt taketih away tbe sin of Vie world' and we realize the Lamb off (od lung upon tle Cross and His hiood was shed for the people off the world. In Vhe "Epistle Vo the Heb- rews" VIe writer recogniz'ss Vhe symbollsm of the Old Testament in the sacnifficial SYstemn. rver wa,, sufficient. Be ponts out ,hat Js.uý Christ 'brings ev:erylhing V o iufl ness. We see in titis VIat "there 18 Sno remission of sn wiVhou t lh shsdding off biod." W1hY , 1- y' mean by this'? We k iow that wasn't necessary to aippease Gact or change God'.s attitude. WThen 'the Hebrew offered bis sacrifice, be, was offering is, hf e to God witb the, blood of the animal. Wben Jesus Christ shed His 'blood, He was giv- ing His life. 'Witlhout the giving of' lit e there is no salwation. If you think tbey can withdra:w from Christian feRlowship, with- draw from res'ponsibility and live the lite of the hermit, then tbey do lot know God's salvation. Only as we give our lives do we know ît, Jesus said, "lExýcept a m~an beo ready to ]iay down his ite, he shal. flot gain it; " "If a man seeks ta save his lit e, he wil lose it, but tf- he is ready to 105e his 'lite for Mly Sake, le will gain it." That truti. still hlds. No one present cari know God's salvaton without the giving of his or ber 'lite., God maY not require that physical lit e should' be'given up, someétimes it is harder to go on in lif e than to give Up, But each o ne needs God',s salvation, and we oan only have it as we are, re-ady to give our lives and accept tihe Christian respgnsibility of liteý God's salvation is somethingthl touches every phase of ilfe; some- tbing we need to experience every, day, not once in the past. Salvation grows in its fullness as we give our.ý lives to Jesus Christ. The mnost important relationship, is the relationship between "God and You", because it not only brin-gs your life imto abundance and fullne'ss, 'but it puts you in a riglit relationship with your fellow man and wiVh nature.
