"The Christian Basis of Total Ab --
salience"
(Temperance Lesson)—I. Cor. 8:1-13.

own, but each neighbor's good. —1
Cor. 10.24. •
The Lesson in Its Setting
Time—Paul's First Epistle to the
Corinthians was written near the end
of .his three years in Ephesus, A.D.

Place— The letter was written at
Ephesus, the capital of Asia Minor.
CHRISTIAN LIBERTY
Now concerning things sacrificed to
idols. At the first church council,
held in Jerusalem (see the lesson for
August 12), the rule was laid down
that the Gentile Christians should eat
no meat that • had been sacrificed to
idols. We know that we all have
knowledge. Every Christian knows
what an idol is, i.e., that it is nothing,
and therefore that offering meat be-
fore it is nothing, does not affect the
meat in any way. Christianity has op-
ened our eyes to this truth. Know -
aledge puffeth up, but` love edifieth.
'
-;W e have knowled e but we must not
g,
rely on that alone. There is some-
thing better than knowledge,. namely,
love. Knowledge will inflate a man
up in brotherlysympathy and co-op-
eration, making him a vital part in
the great temple of God, together,
with his brothers.
If any man thinketh that he know-
eth anything, he knoweth not yet as
he ought to know. "The knowledge
which puffs up is not true knowledge.
Paul here teaches that, with regard to
a large clas• sof objects, `knowledge
without feeling is nothing; it suppos-
es the most essential characteristics
of the object to be unperceived, If a
,nan is proud and conceited, he is ig
iiorant.
But if man loveth God, the seine is
known by him. Love is the organ of
knowledge and we know most about
these things and persons that we love
the most. llut note that Paul does not
speak of our knowledge of God, but
of God's knowledge of us. We might
be proud of our knowledge of God,
but the fact that God knows us makes
tt es humble, "It i, pride which Paul is
warning the Corinthians against, an
especially the pride of knowledge,
Concerning therefore the eating
things sacrificed to idols, we kno
that no idol is anything in the won
It is a mass of stone. or wood or met
but it is called a god, , and such
certainly is not. And that there is
God but one. This is the great cen
tral affirmation of the Jewish, Mos
lem, and Christian religions; in tha
they are a unit.
For though there be that are calle
gods, whether in heaven or' on earth
The gods in heaven are the sun, moo
planets, and stars, worshipped by th
heathen; the gods' of earth are th
idols and other objects worshipped
such as sacred trees, rivers, noun
tains, and animals, As there are god
many, and lords many. That is, a
Paul has just said, those that are cal
led gods, and worshipped as lords
They were virtually innumerable in
the heathen religions,
Yet to us there is one God, the Fa
thee. The one God is the Father o
all beings, the Source of all power
the Creator of all things. Of whom
are all things, and we unto him. Men
should live for God, Who made them
for Himself, that He might enjoy
them, love them, companion with them
receive from them the worship and
praise which are His due. And one
Lor;,";;: Jesus Christ:;' ;"Seine want a
Christ who is not g6'd; others a Christ
who is not a sacrifice; a Christ with-
out a cross, and without blood; a
Christ Who will teach but not epiate
sin. Through Whom are all things,
and we through Him. "God the Son,
the eternal Word or Reason of the
Father, is the Agent by whom He
works in the creation, preservation,
redemption, regeneration . of all
things."
THE PROBLEM' OF THE OTHER
,MAN
Howbeit there is not in all men that
knowledge. Some have not gained
theclear understandingd
cofthe noth-
ingness
ingness of idols:and of all that be-
longs to t•he worship of idols.. Idol-
atry still means something to them,
But some, being used. until now to
the' idol, eat as of a thing sacrificed
to. an idol. They have been idolaters
so long as that idolatry has become
instinctive; reason denies it but feel-
ing still adheres to it,
But food will not commend us to
God. God - is a spirit, and commends
the spiritual in ,tys, not.what we eat.

.fully, sanely, with selfcontrol? Do
1,1/4 eat .and drink to the glory of God?
Neither, if we eat not, are we the Wor-
se; nor, if we eat, are we the better.
"The thought is, there is no moral
quality either in eating or in refrain-
ing from food,"
THE CHRISTIAN SOLUTION OF
THE PROBLEM
But take heed lest byanymeans
this libertyof
yours become a stum-
blingblock to the weak. "The stum-
blingblocle' is an obstacle thrown in
the
way of the weak, over which they
may stumble into a moral fall, not
having the strength either to over-
come their scruples or to disregard
an example contrary to their •con-
science,"
For if a man see thee who hast
knowledge sitting at meat in an idol's
temple. This is Christian liberty car
ried to the extreme point. Feasts
were often given in the heathen tem-
ples. A man who has offered an ani-
mal in sacrifice invites his relatives
and friends to join him in the temple.
and eat the portions of the meat (us-
ually most of it) that have not been
consumed upon the altar. The en-
lightened Christian is shown as join-
ing in such a. party as a social cour-
tesy and pleasure, not seeing it in any
religious significance whatever. Will
not his conscience; if his is weak, be -
emboldened to eat things sacrificed to
idols? "Embeoldered" is literally
"built up,"„
an ironical expression. A
ruinous upbuilding.”
For through thy knowledge he that
is weak perisheth, the brother for
who sake Christ died. He is a bro-
ther, and so should be cared for ten-
derly by you. Christ died for him,
so you should certainly at least live
for him. And you cause him to per-
ish eternally!
And thus, sinning against the bre-
thren, and wounding their conscience
when it is weak, ye sin against Christ,
Over and over, our Lord identified
himself with the weak believer, the
beginner in the Christian life. He de-
clared that "whoso shall cause one of
these little ones that believe on me
to stumble, it is profitable for him
that a great millstone shall be hanged
about hisneck, and that he should be
sunk in the depth of the sea."
Wherefore, if meat caused' my bro-
ther to stumble. Any meat, and not
merely meat offered to idols. For his
weak brother's sake, Paul was ready
to "go the limit" in denying himself.
Rather than risk impeding the Chris-
tian course of any one, he would do
without all meat forever. I will eat
no flesh for evermore, that. I cause
not my brother to sumble. This is a
grand declaration, one of the noblest
in the Bible, _h., h ,, r .,:;

poular ,for cool weather. Starting

held afternoon and evening, were
sided over by the president, Ja

inspiration for the young people in
their work.
An inspiring paper composed by
Miss Verna McLaughlin of Wingham
on the subject of, "How to keep the
Gospel message to the fore in our
Young People's societies," was read
by Miss Gilchrist of Wingham. The
joy and happiness of the Christian
life should be manifested in the lives
of the young people," it said. The
value of prayer in the christians life
cannot be emphasized too much. The
four -fold development in the chris-
tian life should be noted, mental, spir-
itual, physical and social, but too great
stress should not be laid on the latter
or the main purpose of endeavor in
Y. P. S. work will be los'" The spir-
itual element is what should be em-
phasized most.

that call? It is a call to worship to
be a part of a great body of people
who be},leve in God and in Jesus
Christ, and in human and divine fel-
lowship. It is a call to service, to be
citizens of the heavenly kingdom in
all their relationships. Canadian cit-

and it involves service, So does the
heavenly citizenship. There are'onsany

HYDRO TROUBLES IN Vis.
WALKERTON
Walkerton' is faced with a law suit
over the hydro system. In June last
the local system passed to the control
of an American organization, The
Mayor strongly urged that before any
franchise or rights be given the new
organization, an effort be made to
make tennis with the Ontario Hydro
Commission. In this he found little
support from the rest of the town
fathers, who thought that as the tran-
saction of sale had been above board,
the council sitouldifirst learn on what
terms the new organization would give
service. Then the opposition issued'
a writ restraining the council from
any action, largely on the grounds
that the old' company's
franchise had'
expired, there were no rights to trans-
fer, and consequently were illegally
obstructing the streets with poles, etc.
Logics. like the new organization
might first be'given a chance c to state
terms on which they will, do business
arid what assurance they can give e to
supply a service as satisfactory as in,
the past.
