Zurich Herald, 1939-03-16, Page 3Sunda' School Lesson LESSON XII Peter Exhorts To Christian Living 1 Peter 3:8.18 Oalden Text: Like as he who cal- led you is holy, be ye yourselves also holy in all manner of living. 1 Pet. 1:15. The Lesson Tu Its Setting Tinle• — We cannot determine with absolute accuracy the year ]u which the Apostle Peter wrote his two epistles, but it is generally be- lieved that the First Epistle was wrl' ton somewhere near A.D. 00. .Place — In the thirteenth verse of the last chapter of this epistle the apostle uses the phrase, "she that is in Babylon," and from this some have argued that Peter wrote this epistle from the great city on tbe Euphrates River; others have, advanced the theory that because the ancient city of Cairo, Egypt, wa., called Babylon, the epistle was written there. It is more generally believed that here Peter used the word "Babylon" to designate the city of Rome. 8. Finally, be ye all likeminded. Christians ought to be of the same mind because they are members of, the salve body, the Lord Jesus Christ. Compassionate, Loving as brethren, In secular Greek the word here. means the love of broth- ers for brothers, but in the New Testament it is used in, what •is really a new sense, of love for those who are brethren by virtue of the fact that they are "begotten again" (1 Pet. 1:3). Tenderhearted. Humbler-iinded. Having a modest opinion of one's self, Return Good For Evil 0. Not rendering evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but contrari- wiee blessing. Wo can hardly show ourselves Christians more vividly than in obedience to just such an admonition as this. Not an easy thing to•clo, yet certainly possible, as the Holy Spirit dwells within us. For hereunto were ye called, that ye should inherit a blessing, God blesses, therefore we should bless; he forgives us, and therefore we should forgive others. We were cal- led into such a high life as this when we accepted Christ and re- ceived from him a new life. Men may give good words with the lips, while the heart is full of bitterness. 10. For, He that would love life, and see good days, "Yet him refrain his tongue ' •om evil, and his lips that they speak no guile. The ob- ject wished for is not mere life, as such, but a life that a man can love instead of hating withathe haeeeele that is engendered; on the one hand by the satiety of the pleasure -seek- er, and on the ot'- by bitterness and wrath, • Turning Away From Evil 11. And let him turn away from evil, and do good. The objectives which are here expressed wi'l ne- ver be attained unless there is de- finite determination on the part of the Ivan to achieve these vir- tues, Let us remember that we can- not to good until we turn from evil. These things we do because the life of Christ in us impels us to these efforts. Let him seek his peace, and pursue it. To live toge- ther in families, in nations, ac a race, to seek peace, to seek the smooth working of this complicat- ed fellowship, we are to rid human fellowship of its envy and jealousy and thoughtlessness raid ill will. 12. For the eyes of the Lord are union the righteous, and bis ears ti'^"o their supplication; but the face of the Lord is upon them that do evil. The -springs for all holy en- deavor Ire in our knowledge of God and his San, Jesus Christ. In other words, the future rules the pres- ent; Leaven controls our ^'tions on earth. 13. And who is he that will harm you, if ye be zealous of that which is good? Above Fear of Man 14. But even if ye should suffer for righteousness' sake, blessed are ye: and feat' not their fear, neither be troubled. Compare the words of our Lord in the Sermon on the Mount (Matt,' 5:10; Rona. 8:33-35). The righteousness here spoken of is; of course, not the righteousness of Christ, which is imputed to tis, but the righteousness which we ourselves practice, after our -con- version, in doing the things that aro right. Fear not their fear -- the things which they would dresses, and with which they will threaten you. For what are they? 15But sanctify 11a yells hearts Christ as Lord..i'etea says that the holy fear el God will lift us ahote the fear of loan. :Being ready al- ways to give'aesvter.

There does not appear to be any country or tribe in the world's history, stated P. W. McLagan of Montreal in an address on the de- velopment of eheesemalcing in Canada to the meeting of the Ca- nadian Produce Association, re- cently held at Montreal, which bas not made milk fat its susten- ance into some form of cheese. There seen to be hundred of va- rieties. Cheese is mentioned in the Bi- ble in the Book of Chronicles, where it is written that at a time when the Israelites were at war with the Philistines, a farmer nam- ed Jesse sent his young sen, David, to visit his three brothers who were in the arm and to carry to them a quantity of parched corn, but, to 'the captain of the com- pany, he was enjoined to present ten shall cheeses. In' the- recent` excavations oftJr of the Chaldees, the birth place of Abraham, a mosaic frieze was dis- covered representing dairying scenes on' a farm attached to a temple, more than 5,000 years ago (3,100 B.C.). There is a proces- sion of cows, two calves are seen issuing from the barn door, and nen sitting on low stools are milk- ing cows. Calves duly muzzled are roped. to the cows' head -stalls so as to encourage . her to give milk, Another part of the frieze shows two clean shaven men wear- ing fleece petticoats, the official dress of priests, pouring milk through a strainer into a vessel set on the ground, while two others are collecting the strained liquid into great stone jars, perhaps pre- paratory to making cheese. 17, For it is better, if the win of God should so will, that ye suffer for well -doing than for evil-doiug. If, we know ourselves to have com- mitted no evil worthy of suffering', and are being punished only for the sake of our Lord, then is there no sorrow, and no sense of defeat, and we eau praise God every hour of the Clay and night, no matter what the punishment may be. To be right with God is everylbiug. 18: Because (Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God; being put to death in the flesh, hat made alive in the spirit. The suffering we endure is never something that eve plan for; the suffering that Christ endured he purposed, even in the long ages be- fore he calve down on earth, for by his suffering, even auto death, he was able to make atonement for all t:nrinhteousness and time bring us to God. sweeping and machine-gun practice.

Delafield This clever author who writes so entertainingly has long been noted for her satirical portraits of women who get married for the sake of being married; or of wo- men who just fall short of doing that. Come to think of it, Mrs. Delafield can be cruel as well as amusing, In "Three Marriages" Mrs. De- lafield treats three women of dif- ferent types, different periods— :Nose who lived in the 1850's; Vio- let the little prude who belonged to the Mauve Decade; Cathleen, a lovely-souled creature "who meant to be happy" in 1937, but was defeated by circumstances. Three stories, illuminating com- mentaries on women and marriage and what the former think about the latter. • "Three Marriages" . . . by E. M. Delafield ...

MacGregor, Unit- ed States weather expert said last week. He said that most weather con- ditions in the Lower Lakes region result from movements of poise air masses and of air masses from the Gulf of Mexico. "The polar air masses either come down by way of the Pacific Ocean, or over a snow covered or dry Canada," said MacGregor. "The warm -air mass from the south comes either laden with moisture from the gulf or from the desert. "At present we chart the South- ern movements pretty completely. We are now beginning to .,cheek more closely on the polar massae. "We can tell where they'll meet, when they'll meet and whether the result will be snow or rain and so forth. When weather is chart- ed like that, it AO longer becomes a question of `probably rain or snow tomorrow or the next day.' "Instead, we can answer all the questions,° definitely." Steel Wigwams The first 1,500 of ten million "steel wigwams" were 'distributed in Islington, Greater London work- ing Bless. district last week, to the puzzlement of residents who asked "What are we going tb do with them?" Government regulations require' the bases of the air raid shelters be buried three feet underground in the backyards of homes.
