Robert Matheson told the children a story entitl- ed "Making Allowances." The scripture lesson was read from Isaiah 55:6-11, Philip- pians 1:21-27, Matthew 20:1-16. The choir sang "Man- sion Over the Hilltop". The sermon was entitled "Beyond the Golden Standard". All three scripture passages speak of the alienating forces of this world. All three give several, connected, solutions to the problem. Alienation in Isaiah was caused by a people who had turned their backs on God, their King. The people had alienated themselves. But God was to undo his own punishment. He was about to lead the people back to the Promised Land. The Roman imperial authorities had decided to alienate Christians within the structures of the Roman Em- pire during the lifetime of St. Paul. Philippians was pro- bably written during a stay in prison. Paul felt alienated. Paul was preparing himself for his own death. But Paul was afraid to desert his peo- ple who had great need for his leadership. Our world tends to separate people one from another in various ways and using a variety of methods - some socio-economic and others to be deemed 'scientific' - all do irreparable damage. It has been shown that a peerson's apprearance and their posi- tion within the framework of society (who's who) can con- tribute to their success tate at schoolwork. Christ, in Mat- thew 20:1-16 tells us it is Love which sets us succeed - maybe not as the world measures success - but cer- tainly as it is measured by God in his Kingdom and what. may I ask would be more im- portant to human beings than the Kingdom of God? The C.G.I.T. meeting will be held Sunday evening, Oc- tober 21 at Elimville. Messengers Hallowe'en Party on Friday October 26 at 7:30 p.m. at Elimville United Church. Everyone welcome.
