Page 6 SUNDAY SCH By RALPH ROGERS The New Commandment. John 13 and 14 This “New Commandment” in today’s lesson is over nineteen hun- dred years old. It was new to the | disciples and to the church people | of Jesus’ day. It is new to far too; many church people today, people | who claim to be Christian. Can we} measure our loyalty to Christ and our sincerity by this rule, “that! you love one another; even as I have loved you, that you also love| one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples.” To emphasize the lesson Jesus wished to impress upon his follow- ers, he did an unusual thing. He} washed the feet of his disciples. | It was so unusual that Peter ob-| jected strongly to Jesus doing such a menial task. Such things were | left to the most menial of servants in the oriental household, yet Je- THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Saturday, March 20, 1954 OOL LESSON not to have done; and there is no health in us.” Following this act of love Jesus “that you love one another.” We may well ask if this is a new com- mandment since it is given almost verbatim in Leviticus 19:18. The rabbis took this Old Testament re- ference to mean fellow Israelites. This is quite different from Jesus’ | explanation of the neighbor in| Luke 10:29 ff. The new command- ment was simply the expansion of | the old and now includes all man- Kind. It is new also because it does not include just one’s neigh- | bor, but it is a special love of} Christian for Christian with Christ | as the love center. Ths was the basis for a universal brotherhood which embraced all mankind. This | new love knows no barriers of sus insisted on so serving his dis-| ciples. He wished to gve them an} example of humility and to show them what God was like. | Instructions are given and rules made for the harmonious running of the home. Children listen and at the same time are keen obser- vers of what goes on. Unless the parents practice what they teach, children are likely to form indep- endent ideas and too often go| astray. The story is told of the| lad who was urged to go to Sun- day School. One day he simply | checked up on the results of such | a school. He asked his mother if| his father went to Sunday School. When told that his father as a boy, did go every Sunday he said, ‘““You see, it didn’t do him any good.” Example is far more impressive than simple instruction. Jesus gave hs disciples an example of how brotherly love operates in the lives of men. Humility is a pre-requisite. At that time men knew little about what God was like. Jesus sought to show them. The God of the Hebrews was understood to be almighty and supreme but so far above and beyond them that they could not reach him. A few had come close to God — Moses on Sinai, Enoch and Elijah who had talked directly with God, but all the rest worshipped at a distance. Between them and God was an unpassable gulf. They had observed the gods of the Greeks and Romans and knew that people generally were far above their pa- | gan gods. Now comes Jesus, God| incarnate, with towel and water to | serve in a menial task — as an) example of love. Jesus was as far} above men as the stars in the hea- vens, yet he condescended to serve. Little wonder that Peter said, “Thou shalt never wash my feet.” | While it was no doubt embarras- sing to have their Lord and Master wash their feet, it was an example which they could never forget. We might ask why our churches do not practice foot washing today. With the early Christian Church foot washing was obligatory. It is practiced by some sects today. Augustine says that the rite was observed on Maundy Thursday and the Patriarch of the Greek Church washes the feet of twelve beggars on Greek Easter, Sometimes the Pope observes the rite. As per- formed by some it is a travesty on the original act but it does show that Christ’s example of service and humility is evidence of gen- uine love. Too often we do lip ser- | vice only and the Book of Com- mon Prayer expresses our predi- cament perfectly, “‘we have left undone: those things which we ought to have done; and we have race, nation, sect or clique. This new commandment has transformed lives. Father Damien gave his life for the lepers on} Molokai. Dr. Schweitzer, a talent-| tor, musician and humani- tarian, is giving lavishly through Christian love in service to the) backward people in the jungles of Africa. John Ring, Dr. Russell Con- well’s orderly in the War between the States, gave his life for his Captain. Because of that love, Dr. Conwell said that he had to live John Ring’s life for him and so worked sixteen hours a day in- stead of eight. Through that love, Dr. Conwell not only brought light and inspiration through his many lectures, but established Temple University which is serving and| wil continue to serve further gen- erations in a spirt of love. That kind of love will transform the world. Jesus seeks to test the love men may profess, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word, and my Fa- ther will love him.” One cannot be one of Christ’s own with lip service — just by saying that we love him, nor by acting as he act- ed. We cannot be Christ’s children by the clothes we wear, or by at- tending church of our choice, or by reciting the creed or by sing- ing of hymns. We must love one | another. If we don’t — then our Christian claims are futile, our prayers must go unheard, and all | the creeds will avail nothing. Church membership will be a farce. The final test of disciple-| ship is not sacrifice or service; it | is love. Jesus had little use for the self- righteous. That arrogant group) could love those who loved them | but they had little use for any out- side their own self-centered circle. They could do no wrong and even saw fit to criticise Jesus in his ministry of love and mercy. With all these years in learning that| one commandment too many fail to obey it. That same group oper- ating today is as well as out of churches, contends that “you just can’t talk to that woman” or man, the same as they failed to convince Jesus that he was wrong. Blind | people can’t see the light and neither can the self-righteous un- derstand love — this new com- mandment.

Arsenal deputy commanding officer at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal, has con- firmed the arsenal is manufactur- ing G-gas, a lethal nerve gas. “Our primary function at the arsenal is one of production,” Ef- nor said last night. ‘“‘We do not conduct tests with the gas.” He declined to state for how long and for what purpose the gas, re- portedly the deadliest weapon known to man, has been manu- factured. The Rocky Mountain News, a Denver morning daily newspaper, said in a copyrighted article that Maj. Gen. E. F. Bullene, chief army chemical officer, first made known that G-gas was being made at the huge arsenal northeast of Denver. The News said the gas is “so deadly . . . a tiny drop of the liquid from which the gas is made ... Will kill a man in 30 seconds.” It said Gen. Bullene declared “there is no cause for denver peo- ple to fear it. All possible safety precautions have been taken.” Tornado Warning Lifted In Pa. PITTSBUGRH (» — The U. S.

Residents of the metropolitan area had been warned of the dan- ger. At 1:55 a.m. EST the Weather Bureau stated “there are no fur- ther reports of severe storms.

Far from it.” Her husband—that fellow who jused to sing—probably wouldn’t agree, but she claimed she’s a fizzle as a mate. “I’m a lousy cook,” she said. “The only thing I can really cook well is coffee and eggs. I learned to cook eggs at the American Women’s Club on 57th street in New York when I was looking for jobs. I had an old two-burner stove and the only thing I could afford was eggs. “Oh, yes, I can also barbecue. We built a new one, and I went nuts about it. Cooked up some won- derful steaks. I would have been a whiz in pioneer times. It’s too bad I can’t cook indoors too.” She added that she always for- ets to order food and never has time to sew and do the little wifely chores around the house. I asked her about her two hus- bands, and she said they are very much alike, “T’ve never seen either of them blow up,” she observed. “Jimmy never gets excited. Not that he never gets angry. He does. But the only way you can tell is that he gets a little deadly. “Richard never riases his voice either. He’s the ulcer type—holds things closely to him. If he ever has to bawl someone out, he says it very nicely, “Jimmy is a very interesting person. He’s not at all as quiet as people think he is. He can be shy with strangers, but with friends he can be a real yakker.”” LEGAL NOTICE ——_—_____ NOTICE UNDER FIC’ o: NAME aw NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the undersigned, desiring to en Rage in business under the ficti. tous name of “Marathon Theater,” Marathon, Florida, intend to regig- der sald name with the Clerk of the Cireult Court of Monroe County, Dated February 26, 1954, HERBERT Woop, HERBERT C.
