~ Integrity
By JACK ARNOLD
Pastor, Pembroke Methodist
Church
“Dost thou still hold fast thine
integrity? Renounce God and die.”
Job 2:9,
These very scathing words were
spoken by the wife of Job to her
husband after he had been the vic
tim of great personal tragedy. His
very prosperous ranch had been
completely devastated by bandits.
They carried off his children into
slavery. They stole or killed his
livestock. They burned his house.
Then finally he was painfully
stricken with boils from head to
toe. The great and righteous pat
riarch Job was now humbled by
the evils of this life. Even though
satan had all but destroyed this
man, there still remained to him
one great asset which satan could
not destroy. Try as he may, satan
could not take Job's integrity away
from him.
Webster defines integrity as
“the quality or state of being com
plete; of being of sound moral
principle; uprightness, honesty,
and sincerity.” Job was a com
plete man. That was the secret of
his success. He dealt honestly and
uprightly with his fellow man. He
was sineere in his relationships
with them and with God. Because
of this he not only prospered in
the things of this world but he
also prospered spiritually. Satan
thought that if the material wel
fare of Job were destroyed and if
his health were taken away, he
would no longer be secure spiritu
ally. But Job’s honesty and sin
cerity survived all the tragedies
with which he was afflicted. He
was dismayed, discouraged, and
defeated. But yet he held fast to
that one thing remaining with him.
The integrity built up through the
years endured to puzzle those who
knew him. They couldn’t under
stand why he yet stayed honest
with God when he had been so
sorely afflicted. |
Os all the times of past history
that 1 would like to see return is
that time when honour and in
tegrity were the supreme goals of
life. Even though life was hard
and often there was much cruelty,
there were days in the past when
people would take the difficult way
merely because it was the honor
able way, Even though he abhor
ed dueling, Alexander Hamilton
faced Aaron Burr in such an en
counter. It has often been said
that he wasted his life and was
foolish in accepting the challenge
to duel. But this was a stately
man. The same integrity that
commanded him to honorably ac
cept the challenge of duel, also
dictated that he could not fire a
fatal shot. So he died. His hon
or, however, survived the mortal
wound inflicted by his opponent.
One of the greatest men of hu
man history, Robert E. Lee, dem
onstrated his integrity in yet an
other way. He lived honorably
and so he accepted defeat honor
ably. Even though he was on the
losing side, he was the most ad
mired military personality of the
War Between the States. After
the war a commercial firm offered
him a great deal of money to en
dorse its product. But with honor
shining bright, he answered, “If
my name is worth all that, don’t
you think I ought to be careful
what I do with it.”
What has happened to such hon
or in our days? It is a common
saying, and I think many people
really believe it, that “every man
has his price.” When you see fam
ous baseball stars endorse tobaccos
and beers, when you know that
many of the famous people who
advertise certain products as if
they used them are lying, you be
gin to wonder if the saying isn’t
true. Executives of the great elec
trical manufacturing firms were
found guilty a few months ago of
defrauding the government of mil
lions of dollars through price fix
ing. Do they represent the in
tegrity and honor of the American
people? It is a sobering question,
for whether it be in need or in
plenty, if there is no basic in
tegrity in a person or in a nation,
that person or that nation cannot
long stand. You may then say,
“Well, what about Job. He was a
righteous man and yet he lost

Ladies’ Night
.
For Next Session
At the meeting of the Pembroke
Lions Club on Monday night of
this week is was announced that
Ladies Night would be held at the
next meeting on Monday night,
August 20, at Dasher’s Restaurant,
The program at the Ladies Night
jwill be a talk on direct distance
dialing by a representative of Bell
'Telephom- Company.
It was decided at the session to
operate the Skating Rink only on
Saturday nights during the swim
‘ming season. Beginning immedi
ately, the Skating Rink will be
open only on Saturday night until
further notice
Albert Odum, president of the
club, presided at the meeting
which was held at the Pembroke
Case where a delicious supper was
enjoyed. |
Attending the meeting were
Albert Odum, D. E, Medders, Cald
well Morrison, G. C. Martin, E. B,
Miles, J. B. Goldin, Dalton Griner,
J. E. Pevey, Ray Stephens, Robert
Bowers and J. E. Lantz, ‘
everything.” Go to the end of thel
story of Job, “So the Lord blessed
the latter end of Job more than!
the beginning.” There is a reward ‘
for integrity. For Job, it was in
this life. For Jesus, it was the
accomplishment of man’s salvation. ]
For Paul, it was the assurance of |
union with Jesus. For countless
people, it is the satisfaction of a
life well lived and the knowledge
and assurance of eternal life, Job
is remembered for his patience.
But a far greater virtue was his
integrity. We would do well to
emulate him in it.
