. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1924 Pharisees of Jesus day was devout, he was a crusader, a cham- pion of the established order and a defender of the faith. These are the earmarks of the Fundamental- ist. id Jesus was a Modernist. Again and again we hear him say: ‘It was said of old time—but I say unto you—.” In making the following criticism, I do so with all due regard and respect to the Rev. Allingham. As he says: there is a great wave of conflicting opinion sweeping over the country; but I feel that this would not be, if God's commands and laws, and Jesus’ teachings were better understood, and this can be done only with love in your heart for God, and His Son, Christ Jesus, and the desire for understanding. God's laws and Jesus’ teachings are 80 concise, so to the point, no extra words are used. Jesus’ teachings are given with great love, his de- nunciations with brutal frankness; there io no misunderstanding him. Before going farther I wish to give the meaning of the two phases of opinion: Fundamental—“Of or pertaining to the foundation or base; serving for the foundation. Hence, as an element, FUNDAMENTALISH AS SEEN FROM READER’S STANDPOINT me with their mouth, and honoureth tant; original; elementary; primary; basal; as a fundamental truth; a fundamental axiom. A principal, rule, law, or article, which serves as the groundwork of a system; essential part; as the fundamentals of the Christian faith. Funda- mentalist: One who believes in and teaches the fundamental truths-and laws. Fundamentalism: Pertaining to and of the fundamental truths and Inws.” Modernist—“An admirer of mod- ern ways, fashions, schools of thought, etc." Jesus came preaching and re- asserting the principles of God's Jaws which are the foundation of the Christian faith; He denounced the priests for their false teachings and the false interpretation of God's laws; He said to the Pharisee: “Oh! ye Pharisees: hypocrites.” And again when the Pharisees criticized Jesus’ disciples for not washing thelr hands before they ate bread, He said: “Why do ye also trans- gress the Commandment of God by your tradition?” “For God commanded, saying, honour thy father and mother: and, he that curseth father or mother, let him die the death, “But ye say, whosoever shall say to his father or his mother. It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; “And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the Commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.’* “Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias Prophecy of you, saying: “This people draweth nigh unto HII | Dirt _]] [Gravel Hill ® @®@ NA HHHHII ConcretelfiH MMU Concrete - Saves Gasoline You will find the simple chart, shown above, worth more than a passing glance. It points out a lesson in economy directly connected with every motorist’s check book. The chart shows the average ton-miles “per gallon of three types of highway sur- faces, as proved by tractive resistance tests conducted by Iowa State University. Note that a gallon of gasoline carries you more than twice as far on a Concrete Road as on a dirt road and one-third farther than on gravel. In addition to being skid-proof, rigid and lowest in maintenance cost, Concrete Roads assure a marked saving in gasoline. Their all-around economy goes a long way toward paying for them.

And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.” So I ask the reader: Would this not tend to prove that Jesus was not a Modernist, but the greatest Fundamentalist of all time? The Pharisees of Jesus’ day was (apparently) devout; a crusader; and a champion of the (priestly) estab- Ushed order, and a defender of (that) faith, but Jesus said: “But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the king- dom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go. in.” “Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye com- pass sea and land to make one prosélyte, and when -he is made, ye make him two-fold more the child of hell than yourselves.” ‘The Modernist of today is but the Pharisee of yesterday. The fore- going is the word of Jesus, the Son of God. Does He make it plain to those who would annul the effect of His laws and commands? Those who dig to undermine the foundation of His laws, dig but to bury themselves unto everlasting. There is no easy way; no way around; just the straight and narrow way. The Modernist of today as the Pharisee of yesterday takes excep- tion to fundamental truths, laws and commands of God. He de- clares we want a practical religion. He weaves a beautiful story of what God's commands mean. What the prophets sayings meant, and also what Jesus meant to convey to us by his teachings. He trys to pene- trate spiritual thought and under- standing with worldly wise mortal mind; and he declares it all bunk; for mortal man or mind cannot and never will understand spiritual mind or thought, and so He gives to the world what He himself wants to believe, and not what He really thinks, ‘But I say unto you that if we 80 care: live so close to God by obeying all His commandments, that we can walk and talk with Him and we can hear His voice.

The portion of the cost which is chargeable to advertising comes in from time to time for discus- sion.
