Zurich Herald, 1939-11-02, Page 7Sunday School Lesson LESSON IV /tI HTEOUSNESS IN THE KINGDOM (For Area{ctia.e Sunday) Matthew 5:17-6;18. Painted Text, Matt. 5:17.2G; 38-45; 6-1-4. • Golden Text.—Ye therefore +shall be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect. Matt. 5:48. TEE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.—Spring of A.D. 27. Place.—On a mountain, the ex- act location of which we do not know. There was never a church nor as creed which put a man's Iife to cuch a severe test as does this sec- tion eation of the Sermon of Christ (Matt. 5:17-20). . The Perfect Law 17. Think not that I came to destroy the law or the prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfil. Christ fulfilled the law by his obe- dience to it in a more perfect way than any other man obeyed the law;' he fulfilled it by giving it a richer, deeper, nobler meaning than was commonly ascribed to it by the teacher:: of Israel. Most of all, Christ revealed the perfect law, which is the law of love. 18. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass away, one - jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass away from the .law, till all things be accomplished. 19. Who- soever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, be shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20. For I say unto you, that ex- . rept your righteousness shall ex- ceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven. The righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees was an ex- ternal righteousness. The right- eousness of which Jesus speaks in the following vefses is one that Includes all the external righteous acts insisted upon by the Jewish leaders of his day, but also implies it heart of purity, sincerity, truth- fulness, and real love for others, even for one's enemies. Such righteousness has been lived for us in Jesus Christ. Christ, through- out his entire life, and through his teachings, perfectly reveals what God desires of men. The Christian Spirit 38. Ye have heard that it was said, eye for an eye, and -a tooth for a tooth: 39. bat I say unto you, Resist not him that is evil: but whosoever smiteth thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. What Christ condemns is not the prosecution of those who are guilty of robbery and violence, but the spirit of revenge. 40. And if any man would go to law with thee, and take away thy coat, let hint have thy cloak also. The fact that it is going to be a case at law implies that there is something to be said on both sides. Jesus says: Forestall your opponent, do more than he actual- ly demands; give what he could not demand. 41. And whosoever shall compel thee to go one mile, go with him two, Whatever we find ourselves compelled to do, we should do not with a grudging spirit, but willingly, and indeed do more than we are asked to do, to go the mile and then to go the second mile, Be generous as well as honest. Love Your Enemies 42. Give to him that asketb thee, and from hits that would borrow of thee, turn not thou away. We are to be generous with those who come to us in need, but we ere to exercise discretion and Wisdom in these matters. 43. Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy. 44. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, and pray for there that persecute you; 45. that ye may be sons of your Father who is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust. Towards your enemy, there must be no fiery retaliation, no more chilling tol- eration, no proud and lofty com- mand. - • Sincerity In Religious Liffe Matt. 6:1. Take heed that ye do not your righteousness .before men, to be seen of .them: else ye Have no reward with your Father who is in heaven. 2. When there- fore thou doest alms, sound not a trumpet before thee, as the hypo- crites do intho synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto 'ou, They have received their re- ward. 3. Thit when thou doest elms,alet not thy left hand know +what thy right hand doeth: 4. that thine aline Wray be in secret. and thy Father who seest in secret shall recompense thee.

Nothing which suggests that time can ever touch him is allowed to appear in the press. "When his daughter, Countess Clano, had a son, the Department of Propaganda sent round a secret notice to the Italian newspapers warning them • that the word `grandfather" was taboo." Would Eliminate Entrance Exams Chief Inspector of Ontario's Public and Separate Schools Recommends Step —Would Save Schools Money It written high school entrance examinations are eliminated by the Ontario. Department of Education, as forecast by V. K. Greer, of Tor- onto, chief inspector of public ..nd separate schools in the province, it will save a considerable amount of worry to pupils in the entrance classes of the public and separate schools of the province. It will mean also a saving to Col- legiate Institute Boards in expens- es in connection with the examina- tion of the written papers. System of Recommendation The present system of recom- mending pupils, by 'the teachers, would be extended somewhat. The recommendations are based on the year's work of the pupils. This is considered by many education- ists to be preferable to a single written test. In Effect This' Year? The system of promotion by re- commendation from grade to grade .in the elementary schools has been in vogue for some years.. Whether the eliminations of written en- trance examinations will go into ef- fect during the current school year is not yet known. Chief Inspector Greer intimated it would take place "in the near future." M. Louisa Allen of London has washed and polished 1,000,000 show pieces of pottery and china, worth $15,000,000, without break- ing one. Real Ptomaine Declared Rare Nevertheless Every Housewife Should Guard Against Pos- sible Food Poisoning The use of the term "ptomaine poisoning" in respect of illness caused by bad food is misleading, at least technically, It was pointed out recently at the offices of the Montreal City Health Department. In point of tact, very few people ever die of real ptomaine poison- ing. It was explained, however, there are other poisons that develop in foodstuffs. There are the calmon- eila and the dysentery organisms, some of which produce specific diseases when consumed In food. Then there is the botulinus group of organisms which does not itself produce any infection, but does produce a toxin which could make the patient i11, producing a condition medically known as, bot- ulism. The botulinus toxin is very deadly, has a high mortality to its debit; but tbe organism is destroy- ed when exposed to a temperature of 175 degrees Fahrenheit for 80 minutes or more. When to Doubt Throw It Out To avoid the risk of such pois- onings, all foods should either be cooked at once, or put in refriger- ation under conditions of cold that will prevent the multiplying of the spores or organisms with which the food has been contaminated, Food in metal containers shouldn't be -'en if there is - ny bulge In the can, Spoilage is often accom- panied by formation of gas, which would produce bulges. "Left -overs" must be kept strictly cold until ready to be cooked again. "Pres- sure cooking" should be used in Canning or preserving non-acid foods, as mere boiling will not kill botulinus spores And lastly, V Health Depart. ment was unanimous that "When in doubt, it throw it out," should be the final rule in regard to all foodstuffs.
