of the sea of life.
Character
Character is one of the greatest
motive power in the world. In its no
blest embodiments it exemplifies hu
man nature in its highest form for it
exhibits man at his best. (Emerson
tells us that men of character are
the conscience of society of which
they are a part.
We can rest assured that “The
prosperity of a nation does not de
pend upon its reveues. or the size of
its army and navy, but in the number
of cultivated citizens. Its number of
citizens of character that is above
reproach. Here we find the real
power. Men of modesty, integrity, of
high principle and honesty of charac
ter command the respect of others.
All that is good and noble in the
world is upheld by them. Without
their presence the world would not
be worth living in. 'Genius always
commands admiration but character
receives self-respect.
Man s Duties
Great men are always exceptional
men, and greatness itself is but a
comparison. The range of most men
in life is so limited that very few
have the opportunity of being great,
but each man can act his part hon
estly and honorably and to the ex
tent of his ability. He can use and
not abuse his abilities. He can at
least always strive to make the best
of life. It may appear commonplace
to do ones duty, but in doing this
there is required the highest ideals
of life and of character. There may
be no semblance of the heroic about
it, for the common lot of man is not
heroic. Although the highest sense
of duty upholds man in his highest
attitudes, it also sustains him. in the
transaction of the ordinary affairs of
life. 'Man’s life is centered in the
sphere of common duties. The most
influential virtues are those that are
most in request for daily use. Super
fine virtues, which are above the
standard of common men, may only
be a source of temptation and of dan
ger.
The Noblest Manhood
When one strives to do his duty
faithfully they are fulfilling the pur
pose for which they were created and
building up in themselves the prin
ciples of noble character. ’ There are
many persons of whom it may 'be
said that they have no possessions
other than their character and yet
they stand upon it as firmly as the
richest man in all the world. One
may be accomplished in literature,
arts and science and yet in honesty
virtue and truthfulness -be entitled to
take rank (below many poor and il
literate.
Some of the Things That Mar
Homes; Jesus’ Teachings
Regarding Divorce
In- view of the facts above men
tioned it is well that we may have
thus saith the Lord for our conclu
sions. In Mark 10:2 we have these
words, “and there came unto him
Pharisees, and asked him, is if law
ful for a man to put away his wife?”
They were trying him. We also find
the divorce question in Mathew, Luke
and First Corinthians. Paul in the
latter discusses the question from a
lofty standpoint. The general atti
tude toward divorce was very loose in
our Lord’s day. Some of the Jewish
Ralbbis thought that divorce was only
a minor fault. Other Rabbis to a
rigid view of the question and pro
vided divorce only case of proved in-
chastity on the part of the wife.
become one flesh so that they are no
more two, but one flesh. What,
therefore, 'God hath joined together,
let not man put asunder.”
This no doubt refers to Glen. 1:27.
There certainly is no doubt that in
the beginning God’s intention was
that man should be a monogamous
being. There is a lesson that could be
learned from some birds, for example
the dove. They mate for life, and.
nothing but death will part them.
God teaches U3 that marriage is a
divine institution. It was the earliest
of all social relationships, 3 and i thei
foundation of all society. In every’
true marriage there is a union ap
proved of God and sealed.
And no man has a right to break
this union.
The teachings of all the gospels
led to the conclusion that no divorce
can ibe allowed among Christians ex
cept on the grounds of unfaithful
ness on the part of either mate. So
from this we conclude that there ia
only one ground for divorce in the
New Testament.
The Ideal Christian Home
Only the right kind of a home can
furnish the right kind of a life.
From good seed good trees grow.
Good seed cannot thrive well in
poor soil. Any feeling that takes a
man away from his home is a trai
tor to the household. Home is first
and most important school in the
formation of character. It is there
that every human being gets his (best
moral training or his worst, for it ia
in the ,Jiome that he learns those
principles of conduct which lasts
long as life endures. We have heard
it saicJi “Manners make the man’
that “mind makes the man,” but a
truer ‘ tatement would be “home
makes the man”. Home training not
only includes mind and manners but
also character.
From the home, be it pure or im
pure, comes the principles that rule
and govern our society. Nations are
gathered from the nurseries.
The Star of Home
It is the order of nature that do
mestic life should be preparatory to
social life, and that the mind and
character should first be formed
the home. From the family, children
enter life and advance from.. , child
hood to citizenship. Thus the home
may be regarded as the most influ
ential school of civilization. After
ail, civilization resolves itself intd a
question of industrial training.
Mantaining the Home
If we are to maintain oiir homes
in all the purity that 'God - can give
us there must dwell in that home a
spirit of brotherly love and a love
for purity. When the guiding hand in
the home is other than the Eternal
One, we may find a home that is (be
set with troubles and sorrows. Our
homes are God-given and if we arc
to make the most of the gift we must
make them a place of peace, happi
ness and purity. Let the world know
that God is a welcomed guest in our
homes. The home is the most sacred
place on earth for us, and for that
reason the duty to keep it holy de
volves upon us.
Ajs we are creatures made iri the
image of God we should make our
dwelling place on this earth a place
where God is always present.
