ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, THURSDAY, APRIL 4th, 1968 Taken fromn a sermon preached' by Rev. B. Long In the events and the people surrounding Jesus during the Iast days of his physical exist- ence we find ourselves. You were 1here! Jesus was loved, misunder- stood, ignor,2d. desrised, betrayed Aeserted, hated and mourned. Al ~of the reactions of mankind to W, etauched him then, and the d_ýoser- we dmaw to Enster the m,ýrc we are reminded that we ar al ratures of choice. This moriwe touch briefly th hieof Jesus anId others. ï*1 hechoice of Jesus Jesus h.ad- made th e daim - 'teme l5 1no greater love than thi,;s( that a man should lay down hus lifefor his friends." The Gos- ýPél of St. Matthew records, "fromn that time Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jer- usalern and suffer many things" and he said, "He who seeks to save his if e will lose it and who- 'ever loses his life for my sake -will find it." Jesus' choice was to give his if e for the salvation of ail mankind. His choice was ani expression of bis redemptive love. We ail benefit from that re- demptive act. ~The choice of the People Jesus taught of a kingdom of -love; a way of ifÈe that embodied eternal principles; a kîngdom .of God t.1 be discovemed within the individ ùal and embodied in So- ,eAety. 'The peoples' choice was be- tween the "kingdom of God" or the kingdom of self." History seems to reveal that the majority chose to live the life, which, was £ýentered in self. 'The Choice of Judas There are those who feel that Judas betrayed Jesus because he %vanted to force him to reveal ihimself as' the 'king and1 ruler logawaited and expected by the p)eoile of Israel. If this 'is true, kthen Judas made the fatal mis- 'take of ch'oosing his own pograml for Christ, rather than committ- ing himself toý Christ's program. Christ asks for complete surmend- er, or commitment, yet we so of- tehi, ike Judas, refuse to folIlow in humble obedience, choosing rather to dietate to Christ* how we will, go and how we wil 'The Clioice of Pilate Pilate had to decide what he w"ou7ld do with. Jesus.1He tried 'passing the buck", and that means trying to make someone ,else esponsible for obe's own ac- tions. It was what Adam iiid in the Garden of Eden - it is what Aaron did when he was challeng- icd about setting up the golden ealf in the eXý'dus stories- it is 'what mianufacturers of alcohol do when confronted with the deves- tation they.ý,oeuseJ'n bmo1ken health atid eveiir delth - it is what poli- ticians often do when eýxpected to acecept responsibility iii the area oàf social conicerns - it is what the ,man on- the street do)es wvhen he isirks his responsibility in the Christ ian commiinity because soineone else. bas offended hîm ~or he imagines some slight - it is what present day disciples of Christ do when the easy way out is taken. Pilate knew where the respon- eibility lay, for he h.ad said to the prisoner, "I have power to crucify you and- I have power to 7release you." His self-ighteous 4iand-washing bas always been a symbol of hypocrisy and insincer- HOME NURSING CLASS RECEIVE AWARDS A presentation of pins and cer- tificates t3 this year's Home Nur- sing class was held Wednesday March 2th in the Gi eat Hall at St. John's Anglican Church, Bow- manville.
