THE STANDARD OF CHRISTI
LIVING
Sunday, Jan. 9,—Luke 0: 27.3
Golden Text:
Be yet therefore perfect, even
your Father which is in Heaven
perfect (Matt. 5:48).
The standard of Christian liv
laid down—or rather lifted up—
the Lord Jesus Christ in this lees
is utterly hopeless for human natu
it is possible only to the Diane. r
ture. And that is the res..eon w
Christ says, elsewhere: "Ye mist
born again." As has been well sa
God does not expect us to live H
life without first giving us His n
ture. Our first birth gives us on
Adam's fallen, sinful nature. 0
second birth gives us the very life
God. Only twice -born men can li
the life described in the Sermon o
the Mount. It is wholly miratculo
• life described in the opening word
of the lesson, "Love your enemies,"
and in th Golden Text. The Christ-
ian life is a miracle—or it is not
Christian. The life of every Christ-
ian is meant to have as stupendous
an effect upon thost around him as
the life of Christ had—for it IS the
life of Christ: "to me to live is
Christ" (Phil. 1:21).
When our Lord tells you and me,
"Love your enemies," He is naming
the greatest miracle God can work
in a human being. This does no
mean, "act as though you loved you
enemies." It does not mean tha
we should merely tolerate our ene-
mies or be courteous to them. 1
means that deep down in our inner
most hearts, where the enemy can-
not see, but where God can, there is
to be nothing but miraculous, joy-
ous, spontaneous, irrepressible love
for that enemy. If we have this mir-
acle -love in our heart it will show
in our actions, our {courtesy, our
words and our face. We cannot con-
ceal it if we would. Bitterness or
hatred or indiyerence can sometimes
be concealed from other:; but love
can never be; we are livid_ epistles
when we have God's miracle -love in
our hearts.
There is a passage in First John
that throws a flood of light on this
lesson: "As He is, so are we in this
world" (L John 4:17). That ex-
plains the Golden Text. It is in the
midst of a wonderful passage on love
in John's Epistle, which should be
read with this lesson. God makes ue
like Himself by giving us Himself.
When we love an enemy in this
miraculous way, and that enemy
starts cursing us, we start b1es.-ing
him. AA he calls down curses on us,
we call down blessings on hire.
AN action; Christianity as never that.
We are to give to those whl cannot
or will not repay.
8 But God will repay in 'a way that
will amaze us. "Lend, hoping for
as nothing again; and your reward shall
as be great"—not from men, but from
God.
1 God treats everyone alike as He
mg ge•ves, certain of His good gifts. "For
by ; He maketh His sun to rise on the
on • anvil and on the good, and sendeth
1e rain on the just and on the unjust."
'a" (Matt. 5:45). Then the Golden Text
by follows: "Be ye therefore perfect,
b" . even as your Father which is in Hea-
ld' van is perfect." The words "per-
t" feet" here, does not refer to• God's
a- • absolute sinless perfection, but to
iY His impartiality, His completeness of
ur grace, which we in turn are to show
o1 toward all.
Ye ; As we do everything for others,
n expecting nothing, we shall tied that,
us after all, men will return to us Borne
thing of that which we ,give to them.
That is on'• of God's surprises, "Give
and it sh • • given unto you: gond
measure, pressed down, ani shaken
together and running over, :hall men
give into your bosom."
But, let us never forget, we are to
love as God loves, even without any
return from men. The standard o'
Christian living is the standard of
God's loving; to show forth always
the love described in I. Corinthians
13, which "never faileth."
SEED CLEANING PLANTS
An absnce of efficient see' clean-
s ing machinery at convenient points pl
has had a depressing effect on the
production of registered seed grain
in Canada. To overcome this him- s
thence the Cereal Divisio:l of the Y
Txperimental Farms has given close. kh
study to various types of cleaning
machines and established both at the.
Central Farm and at th,' Branch S
Farms cleaning plants of -tee beat
types. These plants are being used e
net only for the cleaning of the seed r
grown on the Farms but they are f
.,laced at the disposal' of farmers for , a,
a fee sefiicient to cover the .oet of so
operation. This service 1a;t year at a
the Central Farm at Ottawa amount- th
od to the cleaning and ;railing of pl
more than 6,000 bushels of seed M
grown in the Ottawa district. So an
gratifying is the work done by there H
machines that a number of the far- is
n.ers have established for themselves ya
and their neighborhoods, seed clean- tw
ing plants of similar type. ro

To the natural man our Lord's in-
junction in verses 29, 30 of the les-
son seem strange, even unbalanced,
. telling us to offer the other cheek
to one who strikes us on one, ;heels,
to let the man who takes our cloak

one who has taken them. But 10 is
all explained by the hear: of the
Christian life as given in Gala -thine
2:20, "I am crucified with Christ ,. .
. Christ liveth in Inc." That dia-
mond of Gospel truth, and the Ser-
mon on the Mount, both describe the
supernatural life of a man who has
•died to self and is living ostia unto
God.

Now, three hundred years after
that momentous meeting, the Chau -
try House is to follow the pioneers,

Three other ancient landmarks
have been disposed of to America
within the last twelve months or so.
They are Warwick Priory, Agecroft
Hall, and a fifteenth -century gateway
from Parham Old Hall. In each case
there was some protest, partly on the
ground that historic buildings should
not be lost to the nation in this way,
and partly becauee It was considered
that no new site could possibly be so
suitable as the old.
We do preserve our ancient monu-
ments—or such of them as the An-
cient Monuments Boards considers of
national importance. But no inhabit-
ed house can be scheduled as an an-
cient monument, so It is impossible
to protect the historic buildings
which are still occupied. Still, on
the whole, this system ensures that
most of the old landmarks which are
of really first-class importance are
safeguarded.
The argument that the beauty and
charm of a link with the past can be
destroyed by a change of aite comes
strangely from British lips. Amer-
ica's plunderings from us are very
small as compared with our plunder -
Inge from other countries. But no
one contends that the Elgin marbles,
for instance, are any less lovely be-
cause they aro now in the British
Museum.
