BEWARE THE SHORT CUT TO POWER AND WEALTH

As we enter the New Year, we fctl the sp; I of tune.

How long the summer seemed when we were young, but.the older we grow. the morn swiftly the seasons pass. and the shift and change of all earthly thhigs is burned into our muls. Never- ilu-Icss. ”man has forever." and as such be must take the long now of life and its opportunities.

(In the one llaild. the call for highly trained experts is more urizcnt than ever in every branch of modern enterprise; on the other. the promising youth is tempted to cut short his time of study and training in order to take one of the inviting jobs that offer speedy rewards.

in this era of building, one liaI only to notice as he goes along the street. the way in which bulldozers dig out wide and deep spaces for basements to realize hnw largely the machine is taking lllc place of the laborer to the benefit of all concerned.

lint the handling oi the mach- Inc requires an ever-Increasing de itrcc of skill and reliability. and to acquire this prolongs the period of training.

Then in scientific pursuits the specialist and tin expert Bl) lull more necessary.

The one who refuses to take the in-.:licst dcgree of preparation of ullich he is capable handicaps his nun future and impovcrishes the notion in a time of unparalleled expansion and development.

The shortcut to power or uczllth is always alluring. Jesus I('II the fascination of the short- nut to the establishment of His Kingdom. A study of His Tempta- Ilflns will show that every one at them pointed to an open road in a crown.

The first of them is the last in in St. Matthew's list-the short- rut of the man.

(SE OF FORCE

The Tempter offered Him the ItlIIL'IIOmS of the earth If J sue iumld worship him: this n- tInuIlledU means the use oi force to overthrow His enemies Ind -cl up His throne. His people ex- l.ct'lvd their Messiah to lead them to victory. as His ancestor David. Uni Ile 'clt lll Himself power suf- In-it-nl to do anything that the wit of God required.

lint if He had done so the ulirld could never have been rnvcd. So Jesus chose the long nor of the Cross.'

War does what King Canute failed to do-it turns the tide of progress backward.

LOWERED STANDARDS

There are even more tempta- tions In the pursuits of peace tn take short-cuts to success. Every aspirant to statesmanship is beset with appeals to lower his stand- ards In order to win the crowd.

No class of men seems more dependent on popularity than the preacher. and their name is legion who have diluted divine truth in order to win applause.

Whether one is in a high posi- lion where the welfare of many will be served by his fidelity to truth and duty or whether in pri- vale life he or she is urged to compromise virtue for favor. the

prniclple at stake is the samt.n- fr

there is no royal road to integrity and service at the summit: the hard way of sacrifice and loyalty to the best we know is the only way in which we can walk with God.

The Church has the same temptation to face and her fu- ture Ibove all others is secured only by keeping her eyes on the stars. She may fall with the best of motives.

There Is her present plan for evongellsm. Now if this effort is tmbo more than "I flash in the pan" she must do two things.

First she must enlist every member in the effort to turn sinners to the Saviour. The impression which is far too com- mon that the church's member- ship is an inert body to be acted on by its leaders and who can act only throuyh their leaders must be thrown into the discard.

Second every one brought into Christ's Kingdun should be

trained for service. Bible schools Gm

for the trnlnlng of Christian workers are springing up all over the land. As we begin I New Year it in the long reuse of usefulness that ought to be kept In mind. The short and easy way can lead only to I success that is tuperficinl and temporary. "Man has for- ever" and It is the enduring and the ultimate only that offers satisfaction to immortals.
