Parkes Cadman. Q. 1. What does it means to give up all and follow Christ? Am Ito give up every pleasure and recreation? As a young man working in the city I vary my life by going to shows or the movies. Is this right or wrong? 2. Please explain Christ’s words in v St. Mark’s Gospel, chapter iv.lo-13. y A. 1. This command does not forbid ' pleasurable pursuits such as you name. 1 But it requires Christ’s disciples to E abstain from all habits and practices which are contrary to His teaching. If ? you can sincerely Invoke His blessing on 1 whatever you do, do it; If not, banish i it from your life. t Aught that weakens our allegiance to Him or hinders our complete dedication r to His purposes should be forthwith f surrendered. Some dramatic presen . tations poison the mind and enfeeble the will. These are not for a professed ' Christian. Others elevate the mind ■ and quicken the best feelings of the ■ heart. These can be seen by any one 5 to advantage. A theatrical perform ance which faithfully expounds life so s as to give us a clearer understanding • of its divine nature and scope is a de s cided acquisition for our spiritual cul . ture. ■ But why apply this saying of Jesus ■ to secondary matters alone? Consider the brave missionaries, who in every ! age have obeyed their Lord to the full, • making a lasting severance from all ■ they dearly loved parents, home, friends and country—in order that they i might transmit the Gospel to their less ’ fortunate brethren. : If you want to know the range and intensity of sacrificial obedience read the accounts of Albert Schweitzer’s re • sponse to Africa’s needs. He gave up - much man treasure to establish his > hospital at Lamberene, on that con -1 tinent. A great scholar and an ac complished musician, he, nevertheless, ' placed all his gifts on the altar. What he did thousands of elect souls of the faith have also done. 2. The words you Indicate from St, Mark's Gospel explain the evangelist's view of the aim of Christ's parables. He chose this method of instruction because it was popular and interesting 5 and made His hearers think, while at the same time it confounded the prej udices of His opponents. But we must ■ remember that the hindrances men -5 tioned by St. Mark were self-induced by r bigotry and pride and were not a part . of the deliberate purpose of Jesus. Q. You have previously said that the ' Old Testament is not as explicit on [ the question of immortality as the New ; Testament. lam a Jew and would like , to know the reasons for your statement. A. The New Testament was written I by Jews, and for this boon we owe them an additional debt of gratitude. They » were Christian believers who under ■ stood their ancestral scriptures and had I also experienced the regeneration of i the new faith. Hence the Second Epis tle of Timothy declares that Christ “abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gos pel” (1.10). The writer of this letter (VISITOR TO OCCUPY COVENANT PULPIT Rev. John B. Gregory of Utica, N. Y., to Preach at the Morning Hour. The pulpit of the Church of the Cov enant (Presbyterian) will be occupied I tomorrow morning by Rev. John D. Gregory of the Olivet Presbyterian Church, Utica, N.

WASHINGTON. T>. C- SATURDAY. AUGUST 9, 1930. ) had evidently traced the developments j of biblical teaching and found Its cli t max in his Risen Lord. , The Old Testament presents two 5 views of the future life. In Job (xlv.7-12) we are plainly told that i mans life ends with his bodily death. From this And similar teachings the 1 Sadducees doubted and in some in . stances denied immortality. The sec ) ond view consigned departed spirits to > Sheol, where they existed in a shadowy t form, awaiting the hour of final judg i ment. The Pharisees held this latter i view, and the apocalyptic parts of the Bible reflect it. • The Christian doctrine of the future i was influenced by Greek thought, which i taught the soul’s Immortality as dis ■ tlnguished from the body's resurrection. • st. Paul blended both elements in the 1 familiar passage which occurs in I Co -1 rlnthians. xv. The apostle there asserts ! the eternal life of the blessed ones, who ! are clothed upon with a “spiritual ' body.” 1 For the latest works on the issue read > R. H. Charles’ “Esdhatalogy, Hebrew, ' Jewish and Christian”; L. B. Paton's "Spiritism in Antiquity” and James H. Snowden’s volume on “The Christian ; Belief in Immortality.” Prof. Ismar J. Peritz of Syracuse University, the learned and well known teacher of | Oriental languages, agrees with my statement referred to In your letter. Q. I would be pleased indeed to have ’ your explanation and comment on Psalm cxxxix.l4, 15 and 16. : I have given considerable thought to the above Scripture from the King James and other translations, and I 1 have the comment of others upon It. But none is very clear and satisfactory. Also give your comment on Job, xii. 7-10. A. The Psalmist here describes the mysterious creation of human life and how from the undeveloped embryo it grows Into a body endowed with mar velous members and faculties. By such expressions as “In Thy book were they all written, which day by day were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them,” he states his belief that man’s entire course Is planned ahead and recorded In God’s inkless scrolls. In other words, the Psalmist Is convinced that an Ideal scheme is prearranged for every individual existence. St. Paul maintains a similar position in his letter to the Ephesians, “For we are His work manship, created In Christ Jesus for , good works, which God afore prepared, that we should walk in them” (il.10). In chapter xii. 7-10 Job satirizes the vaunted wisdom of the friends who complacently patronized him. Their wisdom is so simple and rudimentary that even the fowls of the air and the fishes of the sea possess it. It is as though the patriarch said, “The lowest creatures in God’s creative scheme are just as much aware as you are that He is strong and wise.” This phraseology must be treated as poetry. We have to remember that the ancients did not make the distinction between human and animal Intelligence which modern • knowledge has formulated. Y. M. C. A.
