CONSCIENCE AND WAR
1N
By Rev. W, Ii, Porter, M.A.
Scripture tell& ue that there are diff•
erent kinds of coneclence, '"A good
ooneolence," "A pure conscience," "A
weak conscience," "An evil cor.-
science," "An ignorant conscience."
Paul' i was not "a weak eonecienoe,''
but an ignorant, one; he says: "I veri.
ly thought that I ought to do many
things contrary to the name of Jesus,
which I also did; and many of the
saints did I shut up in prison; and
when they were put to. death, I gave
my voloe against them, And I pun•
idled them oft in every eynagogue,
and compelled them to blaspheme."
"But I obtained mercy because I did
it ignorantly in unbelief,' •
Dn. F. W. Robertson says of the
Corinthian Chnietiane in regard to
their eating meat eaeviflced to idols;
"Some had a mistaken, ill•formed, Ig-
norant conscience, and 'their con•
science being weak, was defiled'.
Oonscience uninstructed, or uninform-
ed, will tell us very little distinctly.
and he might have added, nothing
unerringly.
Indeed, what evils and injustices,
what cruel barbarities have not been
inflicted coneciontioualyl
Think of the atrocities of the nuke,
a disgrace to humanity for centuries;
and yet they have been coanmitted
conscientiously, and even with the
hope thereby of winning higher
distinction ins heaven. Surely such
lessons before us should make us cau-
tious, at least, in settling duty merely
by conscience.
Is there any solid ground for con-
scientious objections to defensive and
righteous war, or to figbting in such?
If all war and fighting are wrong;
how ie it that so many of the most
devoted and godly have been some of
the greatest warriors. If fighting is
always and only wrong, how is it that
the holy angels in heaven ate said to
fight? Or why should Jesus have
taught his followers their duty as sol-
diers, instead of telling them to leave
the army and cease to fight !
Why should God allow himself to
be Balled "a man of war," teaching hie
servant's "hand to war and his fingers
to •fight." When Abraham Lincoln
was asked during American Civil War
if he thought God•wae or would bo in
it, hie answer was, that be was not
concerned about that, what concerned
him most was that the people should
be with Him in it.
Iudeed, one of the ntost wonderful
pictures of Jesus in Revelation is, "I
saw heaven opened, and behold a
white horse, and he that eat upon him
was called Faithful and True, and in
righteousness obeli he judge and make
war."
Moses, the man of God, appealed to
men's coascienceb to induce them to
fight, saying, "Shall your brethren go
to war and ye sit here." "
The book of Judges especially the
5th chap„ furnishes an excellent tonic
for weak consciences concerning war.''
In this day of supreme issues, moral
and material, well might the sublime
patriotiem of Deborah inspire ours,
"Fraise ye the Lord for the avenging
a Israel, when the people willingly
offered themselves. My heart is to-
wards the governors of Israel who
offered themselves wiilinglljy among
the people. Zebulon and Naphtali
jeopardized their lives unto the death
in the high places of the field, In the
divisions of • Reuben great were the
impressions of the heart. (But) why
abodest thou among the sheep -folds,
tri hear the bleating of the flocks?
Gilead abode beyond Jordan and why
did Dan remain in ships? Oaree ye
Meroz, saki the angel of the Lord
curesY a bitterly inhabitants inha ' a
pts there-'
of, because they came not to the help
of the Lord against the mighty."
'O, blest is hest° whom is given
The instinct that can tell
When God is on the field,
When moat invisible.
And blest is he who can divine
Where real right doth lie;
And dares to take the side that seems
Wrong to man's blinded eye.
