Show Some Things Worth Thinking' About If You Know Truth You Live, If Not You Die Read and Ponder Jesus Christ in His every act and teaching sought to give men the fine things of the abundant life. He reckoned with material values, and saw their just place in any consistent scheme of life. His program contemplated equity and justice and a consistent distribution of the blessings of life to men of all sorts and kinds. Only by the application of His teachings practically applied to every conditionoflife, m ay the world find the way of peace and security. As a human being you are multifold. You live under ev-erv ev-erv sky. Therefore yourfredom, your security your stability, your joy, must be a world freedom a world security, a world stab'lity, a world joy. Modern achievements have so interlocked inter-locked the interests of this planet that none can long prosper where all do not prosper. So we require a New Order For The Whole World. Needed: A New World Orderl This has become the most insistent idea before thinking men and woman today. As a human bein what do you ask of life? You ask for Space to achieve the satisfying development of your being. You demand de-mand Security for your children. You need Stability social, political -and economic that the fruits of your labor shall not be filched nor wrested from you. But you want something more without which you would be indefinitely unhappy you want Satisfaction of the soul. This paper and its editor are committed to th idea that a new national and world order must be established at the earliest possible moment. And by this we do not mean n European or Asiatic order. But what can one man or one institution do against present world conditions? Not much. But if hosts of individuals will arouse themselves and step out to make aserious and determined effort toward something better than the present. If masseS'of human beings do not strive for and set out to make something different from the cruelty, suffering, gangsterism and tyranny of today, then civilization is doomed, While humanity is wading through a sea of calamity, there is within their reach something better a world of joy, peace, plenty, poetry, music, love, and fine aspirations. We offer the following from the Magazine Destiny The poor, confused human race has no plan. And yet, almost al-most as near as its heart is a prepared plan for a permanent and perfect world order about which we shall have much to say. The man who knows of a saving plan and does not give it to his fellows is unfaithful to humanity. Let readers follow us and do their utmost to help spread the good tidings. It is time that people meditate upon the truth that we are not merely human beings wittfa divine spark, but that we are even now spiritual beings, and it is our business to at least try to think and actasif we were and not carry around with us the poison of fear, worry, hate, prejudice, grief, discourage ment',etc. The desire to feed starving children in Europe is commendable b it does any oneJknowof him everjhaving taken aj;stand for feeding poor American ehildren?3How sincerely we wish that each starving child in evryjland might get a few slices of;bread and a bottle of milk dailygAnd howjeasygit would be. if men were building up and helping their fellows to live instead of destroying de-stroying and killing. Of all sad sightsin 'man's pitiful Jplfght the sadJest of all is to see even one child'starve to death. And there are millions of them now going down to slow andljhastlv deaah by starvation beeanse of mirj's inbumiaity to 'Sman What a system that tolerates such souUsss savagery. We read in the press and hear the'Jcommentators on the radio tell us what will take place after the war; howwe are going to rebuild the world, etc. But who among mortal man can foretell, or decide now what they will do? What the world will look "like can not be seen now. Great many things Jwill no doubt happen yet or it is all over. At the rate it is going now, it appears that the nations will be bankrupt, and many places will be entirely wiped of the earth. Men by the millions milli-ons will have lost their lives in battle. Famine, pestilence and death will play hav jo with thousands human beings. The millennium is not here y3t. Before it conns great calamities cala-mities will have taken place. Listen to what Malachi said "For, behold, the day cometh, that shall; burn as an oven and all the proud, yea, and all thatdo wickedly, shall be stubble: stub-ble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, eaith the Lord hosts, that it shill leave them neither'root noi branch. Have we past the great and dreadful day spoken off or is Tit yet to come? Think it over. ' 1 Read the prophecies. Stop, look and listen, for they will surely be fulfilled. Q y. Hansen j |
