HARRIS. more vivid it to the ground broke it into explanation of that dramatic A Lenten Warning BY DR. FREDERICK BROWN HARRIS, Pastor, Foundry Methodist Episcopal Church. E last word of the last apostle who looked upon Jesus in the days of His flesh is found in the Epistle of St. John.. This last warning, which flashes its red light on the pathway of those who would follow the Christ, is “Little children, keep yourselves from idols.” t heart of the aged apostle is the one thing needful for these By an idol, John meant anything which takes the place: He knew that even the symbols and para- phernalia of religion could become just as cf Diana in the pagan temple. never have bowed the knee to an idol made member, yog may have daily bowed the knee And yet you may have been an Many bend the head who never bow the will. necessarily the worship which he performs where nobody goes but himself. John’s warning was against the idol of the “letter that killeth,” the idol of petrified traditions and stereotyped forms in which there may be no breath of life. than in that striking picture in the Old Testament, where Hezekiah, the reformer, took into his strong hands the ancient symbol of deliverance, the sacred, brazen serpent of Moses which the Israelites had preserved for centuries, and flinging eyes and cried out, “This thing is only a piece of brass.” The children of Israel did burn incense to the brazen serpent.” This last word from the idol as was the colossal figure After all, trusts in is his God.

What did Christ have in emind, when he said in reference to children: | “If one causeth one of my little ones to | stumble it were better that a millstone | were tied about. his neck and he were | cast into the depths of the sea?” A. Unlike Wordsworth, Jesus did not | belleve that the shades of the Dl’isoni house begin to close in upon the grow- ing boy or girl. Nor did he teach that “the vision splendid,” which first at-| tends the child’s way, must quickly fade into the light of common day. His own boyhood was a transcendent- ly happy one and doubtless He felt deeply grateful to His blessed mother and all others who had helped to make His tender years so pure and beneficent. Hence, in the words you quote, He sol- emnly warns His hearers against injur- ing in any way the impressionable souls of- children. This may be done by in- stilling in them false views of life and | behavior or by presenting for their emu- lation examples which are elther vulgar or vicious. Better were it, said Christ, for these corruptors of infancy and ado- lescence to be summarily dismissed out of existence than to remain alive to be stumbling blocks in the path of the ris- | | ing generation, which has the inalien- able and sacred right of free approach | to all fine and worthy ideals and to the God who inspires them. ‘The Master's saying should be placed | where purveyors of the profane and the | bestial for the sake of mere money, and Religious Questions SCUSSED BY Parkes Cadman. Q. What is intended to be taught by St. Mark i1.21-22? | A. By the use of these two allegories in St. Mark's Gospel our Lord showed that the religion proceeding from Him could not be harmonized with pre- existent rituals and practices. Hence it had to create those methods which | best. expressed its essential nature and | transmitted its redemptive genius to mankind. ‘The new cloth of Christianity was not intended for patchwork purpose: but to furnish the children of God | kingdom with a spiritual apparel pe- | culiar to themselves. In like fashion, it. was impossible to convey the new | wine of the gospel in tne antiquated | vessels of former conventions. Pressed out from the great vine, | which symbolized none other than Christ and His sacrifice, that wine was | worthy of those adaptations to human | ’deve]npmenl which would best quench the thirst of seeking souls for the life- | giving’ God. Would that many wor- | shipers of the ecclesiastical past might recall these illuminating words of the Master! Q.
