Among the citations which
comprise the Lesson-Sermon is the
following from the Bible:
“As for me, I will behold thy face
in righteousness; I shall be satis
fied, when I awake, with thy like
ness” (Ps. 17:15).

the commandment, "thou shalt
not steal.” He must he secuie in
his home. Then we have the com
mandment, “Thou shalt not com
mit adultry.” Violation of this
commandment kills the soul of
those who violate it. It involves
the stealing of the richest ireas-
ure of the home, sanctity. 1 '
Protecting the Home
When adultry is brought down
to its narrowest sense it means
sexual unfaithfulness of married
perons. The word to adulterate
means to lessen the value of
something worth while by mix
ing something worthless with it.
It lessens the value. Take food
for instance, it involves mixing
something superior with some
thing inferior. The sexual interest
is fundamental in life yet like all
other things when degraded it be
becomes a source of foul corrup
tion. It breaks up homes and
brings children to disgrace in sor
row. The amount of ruin and
tragedy wrought by this evil is
beyond calculation and belief.
In other words violating this com
mandment sanctity or what is God
given is adulterated by the viola
tion of this commandment. There
is nothing that disintegrates
churches more than does impurity.
Ruin has begun in any boy or
girl's life who has responded to
the appeal of the illicit or impure
and started to travel the road
that leads to destruction.
Christ's Interpretation of a
New Law
“Ye have heard that it was said,
thou shalt not commit adultry,but
I say unto you ..." •
The Lord did not hesitate to set
himself above Moses. He interpret
ed scripture with a firm sense of
authority. This declaration horri
fied the literalists who opposed
him. We are to be reminded that
our Lord in his interpretation of
all the commandments tried to
make clear that men's minds in
stead of following the old in
terpretations should be wise to the
fact of the Lord carried men's
minds from effect to cause. Most
men of that day as well as of to
day were and are conscious only
of results. The Mosaic law dealt
with causes instead of effects. The
definite injunction that “thou
shalt not commit adultry." He
pointed out that we should not al
low ourselves to be involved in it.
He went further and said here is
an evil and behold I show you the
cause and give you instructions or.
how to cure it. We see that there
was a difference between Jesus
and Moses as to what they said.
Moses declared certain things to
be wrong and warned them
against them. Jesus taught about
things that were wrong and
showed men how to avoid them
He says the way to avoid murder
is not to become angry. The way
to avoid swearing in matters of
great importance is to be careful
as to the statements we make con
cerning small things. In the same
way he held the way to avoid the
evils of impurity was to meet the
ors of lost ration hooks may now

thing contrary to instructions laid
down by Moses hundreds of years
before. To their amazement and
confusion he did not say yes or
no. Instead of this he answered
by asking them a question. He
said “what did Moses command
you?” That was easy for them to
answer. Moses had provided that
.when a man divorced his wife he
should give her a bill of divorce
ment which furnished protection
! for her reputation. This was good
I as far as it went, but it did not go
j far enough. Our Lord said Moses
1 gave you such a law because of
i the hardness of your hearts. The
Mosaic permission to divorce con
stituted a moral concession. The
modern scandal of an easy mar
riage and easy divorce rests upon
the fallacy that marriage is a
civil affair. This is a flagrant
error. Marriage is wholly divine
Marriage is not the establishing
of a relationship, but the acknowl
edging of a relationship which is
already established.

There are things, in the gospei
about which men may have hon
est doubt in regard to what our
Lord really taught. One thing is
certain that divorce is not one of
those things. Five times in the I
New- Testament Jesus is quoted as
having spoken on the matter of j
divorce. There is ky no- possible;
interpretation that can be made to j
justify divorce. The New Testa
ment frowms on separation and
forbids divorce. There is no doubt
w'here Jesus stood on the matter
and what he taught.
