It _is sometimes cynically irfer- red that Canada is becoming "a welfare state". While opposing communism we are advancing more ang more "into the field of social service. Very few of those who 'benefit directly. from it, complain. Others, alarmed at the rising costs, declare that .it tends to destroy initiative. In the carly days of Israel's his- tory, church and state functioned as one. They were not separated We read such commands as. "When thou beatest thine olive tree, thou shalt not gO over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow". Deut. 24; 29, In the period of New Testament history the church was distinctly separate from the Roman gavein- ment. The church had to care for itseli. Hence Christians in one country were intensely: concerned ~about-theswelare-of-their-brethrep--1 in other countries. When famine struck Judea, the Christians in An- tioch, Macedonia, and Achaia gave generously to help. Paul helped to direct the relief work. One must not say. that he used high pressure methods on_the Corinthians. He did not compel them to give but hy recounting the generosity of the pogs~ Macedonians 'be sought earn- ols po make them willing to give. PHC entry of Gentiles into the Christian fellowship presented some problems, To what extent must they take on the customs of the Jews. The matter was settled at a conference in- Jerusalem. Gentiles riust abdtain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from forni- 1 cation. T he conduct of the Chris- 'tians is not governed by many laws but by divine love which makes him want to live after the example set by his Saviour, Jesus Christ.
