It is terrible when such a condition exists. It is not pleasing to God, and it surely does not attract the unsaved to Christ. Such a situation arises when certain individuals in the church give way to selfish, baser desires (lusts, verses 1 and 2 )and envy ("desire to have, and cannot obtain," verse 2). Such individ uals lack faith ("ye have not, because ye ask not," verse 2). (If they do pray, it is selfish prayer verse 3). They are not content with the place or duties that God has assigned to them. They want the place of leader ship. Other members have gifts that they do not have, so, by fleshly means or for personal glory, they try to obtain such glory. They cannot have what they want, so by implications, half-truths and manuveuring they win a few sympathizers. Then the trouble begins. Surely it is not for the glory of God. It is not a work of the Holy Spirit. Giving a more literal render ing to Galatians 5:16 and 17, we read that if we "live a life con trolled by the Holy Spirit, you will not fulfill the baser or sel fish desires of the flesh. For the flesh is constantly warring against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would." We would be wise to follow the exhortation given in Galatians 5:13-15. In verses 4 through- 6 of our text, we see that such strife among Christians is spiritual adultery and rebellion against God, and it causes God to with hold his blessings from those who cause the trouble. If per sisted in, God will chasten (I Corinthians 11-31, 32). In verses 7-12 we find a cure for strife. We are to submit our selves to God, surrender our will to His will. "Be filled (control led) with the Spirit" (Ephes ians 5:18). The advice given in Romans 12:1 and 2 will also apply here. After we take this first step, we can take the second resist the devil. (Vic torious Christian living is not a passive experience. The Chris tian is expected to exercise det ermination he is to constant ly "working at it." That is the thought found in Ephesians 4:3 Philippians 2:12 II Timothy 2:15 II Peter 1:10). Then we can have fellowship with God (verse 8a). There must be a cleansing and this is obtained when we repent (verses 9 and 10) and confess our sin (I John 9 and 7). There must be no more judging, or speaking evil of, our brothers and sisters in Christ. Roy £. Wikander ,' ,1 1 T'5,'t/•. ... v And Answers ALBLlil F. liA:»IiOLPH Question: We hear of women preaching in some of the churches and what we want to know is where we can find that passage in the Bible where God has given women the right to preach in the Temple or speak in class meetings? Answer: As far as preaching is concerned, I am sure that there is nothing said in the Word of God as to the place that it is to be done. Temple, class meet ing, church, open air or where ever a hearing may" be had, by the one declaring the Word of God. Now in Joel 2.28, 29 we read, "And it shall come to pass after ward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and the handmaids in those days shall I pour out my spirit." It will do good to read the remaining verses in this chapter. These words are declared after Joel has called to repentance and promised the restoration of the lost blessings of God. "And after that," is the word of the prophet. In Acts 2:16 Peter plainly de clares that the happenings of Pentecost, are the fulfilling of this prohecy of Joel. Now if this prophecy of Joel is fulfilled then we may not find fault with the things coming to pass that Joel said would so come. In Webster's dictionary we find that the word prohecy is sometimes spelled with an "s" instead of a "c". Here are fhe definitions of the two words according to Webster. Prohecy means "Inspired declaration or revolation of the divine will, in cluding moral teaching by warn ing, consoling, exhorting, giving example of fellowship with God, and the like, and on special oc casions, particularly in Old testament times, of fortelling, of declaring beforehand, the pur pose of God." The word pro phecy is defined as, "To give instruction in religious matters to interpret or explain Scripture or religious subjects to preach exhort expound. Too many people want to live under the law, but we are living under grace and in the dispen sation of the Holy Ghost. Then when the prophecy of God ac cording to the above Scripture is plainly declared to be fulfill ed on the Day of Pentecost, we should not be surprised when God calls by the Holy Ghosts, to find women as well as men brought into the ministry of the Word of God. Let us not- hinder their work, but hear the word through them and follow its pre cepts and seek the way of God in our lives. The Lord bless vou.
