This invocation o Peace was actually a very old form n greeting among the people of ou Lord's day, but his use of it in th Upper Room gave it a new siguifl canes, Jesus did not use thi familiar greeting to pacify thea terror at seeing Him sudednly appear in their midst. He used it 1n order to emphasise the tremendous change which had suddenly been made in their future outlook. No longer was it. to be terror after defeat, but peace after victory. "Jesus therefore said to them again, Peace be unto you," ' What exactly is the import of our Lord's Easter Greeting? It means that. we can have a high confidence. in the Christian cause, Without that confidence a Christian life cannot be lived. It means that we should not live by sufference creep- ing timidly under the shadow of men's example, We are 10 have eyes and a conscience to know the truth, and courage to maintain it. The Christian Church has been built tip by the fidelities of true men, and it gains no strength from those who have not the courage to be faithful, The first Easter' Greeting came to Hien barricaded behind closed doors Barriers- are often raised unwitting- ly against Christ When the disciples locked the doors of the upper room they never meant to bar them against Jesus, They were afraid of the Jews and were acting in self- defence. There are lines of conduct f0 comet] fife we may pursue without realising that we are raising barriers between ourselves and the highest and the best. It is the tragedy of many a life that its doors are shut. Sometimes it is the door Of pleasure, sometimes the door of business, of the door of friendship, that forms a barrier against the entry of power and purity. Every morning that we rise. evey clay that we go forth to our daily routine, our choices make as or mar us. Sometimes it is by joy or sorrow that the doer's are rloaed, more often it is by selfishness. When we allow ourselves to become afraid of the disfavour of men we are barring the door to many an avenue of useful service. The Easter Greeting, "Peace be unto yon," is as meaningful to -day as it was 0n that first blaster morn, It is a challenge to one and all to open wide the doors.
