There’s but one an- swer, “The Good Samaritan." Noth- ing in all teachings of Christ brings out the Whole gospel better than this parable. The matchless story will never‘lose its force. Accident and want are still the common lot of man- kind. All men are liable to fall among thieves. Disease is the thief that robs men of weath. Misfortune snatches away the savings of a lifetime. Slan- v!“ vâ€"v der fllches a good name. Strong drink is a robber that deprives men of health. happiness and hope of heaven. Three Sources of Misfortune. The miseries of mankind are of three sources. First. from God “Whom the Lord lovetli he (-hasten- eth;" “Many are the afflictions of the righteous." Certain ills there are not of human origin. Got! permits and uses them, if he does not actually send them. The second source is from self. There’s a certain inseparable connec- tion between conduct and suffering. “He's his own worst enemy. chap- lain,” I‘ve had the attendant say to me in prison and hospital.
