Absolom turned against his father, KingDavid, he did not in his rebellion turn intoa commoner. He was a prince still, a fallenprince to be sure, but a prince! After all wehave been created sons of God, and cannotforget this. If in rebelling against God, wecould forget the high station to which wehave been created and for which we havebeen redeemed, it would be a comfort. Butwe cannot. God does not let us off. Hecalls us back to our responsibilities and ourheritage as sons.

We are not left alone in our search forGod. God seeks us. This is the wonderfulstory of the Gospel. We believe that Godhas not abandoned us to a fruitless searchon our own. His Holy Spirit broods overthe human situation. He has not retired tosome distant star. He is in the midst of ourlives. He bothers with us.

It is the cross of Christ that gives ushope. It is here that God demonstrateshow much He loves us, and how anxiousHe is to have us back with Him.

The central message of the cross isforgiveness. A missionary friend of mine,becoming acquainted with a wise Buddhistmonk, asked the monk this question,"What in your opinion does the Christian

THE MISSION OF EVERYBELIEVER

Our mission is to bring Christ, theredeeming, serving and healing Christ, toall the world, so that man may be restoredto God and live in fellowship with Him.

We regard man as a prince. Even in hisrebellion, he remains a prince. Even

religion have to offer which Buddhism doesnot offer?” After moments of silence, themonk replied, "the forgiveness of sins.

Every person has a feeling of guilt or asense of guilt. This is the root cause of hisfear, his anxiety, his paralysis. But he hasmore than a sense of guilt. He has GUILT.He has disobeyed God. He has run awayfrom Him. He has turned his back on Him.

How wonderful it is to be forgiven.How terrible it would be if God had to askyour forgiveness instead of your askingforgiveness of God. The great cry of thebeliever's heart is, "God be merciful to me,a sinner."

And God is merciful. He loves us, notin order to save us. He saves us becauseHe loves us. In fact, even if we never turnto Him again, He loves us still. You cannotstop God from loving you, any more thanyou can stop the sun from shining. Youcan pull the shades, or in blindness you canfail to see the light of the sun, but the sunis shining nonetheless. God's love is likethat, and the eyes of faith will see the lightand will open the heart to receive thewarmth and the life which the love of Godcan give. The inner eye can see the love ofChrist. We love one another, because Hefirst loved us. It is the love of God whichpours into our hearts - and out from ourhearts into the lives of others. It iswonderful to know that nothing canseparate us from the love of God which isin Christ Jesus. Whatever hardships wesuffer, He loves us still. He suffers with us.And when this life is over, He puts us onour feet again in the life everlasting, where

all the ills of this world are over, and we livewith Him forever in perfect joy.

LET ME KEEP LENTLet me keep Lent; Let me not kneel and pray, Forego some trifle every day Fast . . . and take Sacrament . . . And then Lend tongue to slander, hold ancientgrudge, deny The very Lord whom I would glorify. Let me keep Lent; Let my heart grow in grace, Let my light shine 'til my illumined face Shall be a testament Read by all men That hate is buried, Self-crucified-new-born The spirit that shall rise on Easter morn.

LENT WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO YOU

The observance of Lent has not beencommanded in the Bible.

About 200 years after Christ, accordingto the Christian Bishop Irenaeus, someChristians observed a period of fastingpreparatory to the festival of Easter. Thisperiod of fasting lasted forty hours, fromGood Friday afternoon to early Eastermorning.

Later Christians extended the period offasting to the entire week before Easter,called Holy Week. It wasn't long before the

Page Two

time was lengthened to forty days,comparable to the forty day fast of Jesusduring his temptations in the Judeanwilderness. This forty-day period came tobe called "Lent," because it usually falls inthe Springtime, and Lent means spring.Today the Lenten Season begins forty-sixdays before Easter since the six Sundaysduring Lent are not considered part of theLenten Season.

Until the time of the Reformation, mostpeople observed Lent as a period of fasting.Even though it is well to practice self-denial,outward observances and ceremoniesshould never be our chief concern. Duringthe Lenten season, we more intensely thanever focus our attention upon Christ andHis Sacrifice upon Calvary's cross. Weponder anew the depths of love revealed inthe familiar words: "God so loved the worldthat He gave His only begotten Son, thatwhosoever believeth in Him should notperish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16).Paul's classic statement in (II Corinthians5:19 RSV) takes on new meaning for us:"God was in Christ reconciling the world tohimself, not counting their trespassesagainst them, and entrusting to us themessage of reconciliation."

If Calvary is a place where God andman meet at the foot of the cross, then Lentmust be a period during which we aredrawn closer to Christ and His cross. Lentmust be a period, therefore, during whichwe are more diligent in our public worship,more fervent in our private devotions, morefrequent in our prayers, more eager in ourwitnessing, more generous in our offerings,

more intent to live the Christ-like life. ThenLent will, bring us closer to the cross andthe cross will mean to us forgiveness,peace, hope, joy—life eternal!

INCREASE MY FAITHThere is no uncertain future as far as

God is concerned. There is no unsolvedproblem with Him. There is no unsuppliedneed. There is no unforgiven sin. If wehave them nevertheless, it is because theuncertainty of our faith robs us of thatwhich is there for us. What, then, could bea better New Year prayer than this: Lord,increase my faith.

Rev. W. K. Bodamer

LENTEN POWER THROUGHPRAYER

Consecrated Christians spend moretime in prayer, Bible study and Christianfellowship during Lent. "All these with oneaccord devoted themselves to prayer" (Acts1:14). Then God came in the person of theHoly Spirit to dwell within them onPentecost. After Pentecost "they devotedthemselves to the Apostles' teaching andfellowship, to the breaking of bread andprayers" (Acts 2:42).

Teaching, fellowship and prayers—theserepresent the basic need of Christians inour day. Why is it that the church is sopowerless? Why so little joy and victory inour lives? Is it not because we haveneglected, or minimized, such basic needsas prayer, fellowship and Bible study? In theearly church, they devoted themselves

Page Three

regularly to fellowship and prayer, waitingon the Lord, claiming the power offered tothose whose Christian life and witnessfeatured communion with God and unionwith Jesus Christ.

In the young church, they wereempowered and instructed within thefellowship of prayer. Then they went forthto serve and to share. Nothing could stopthem because nothing could withstand thepower of the risen Christ. Will the churchof today learn this lesson and pay the priceof power—which is surrender to God,trusting in Christ, and being filled with theHoly Spirit? This also includes submittingto the discipline of Bible teaching,fellowship and prayer.

If you study the Book of Acts carefullyyou will note that "prayer was the channelby which the power of God came into thelives of the believers—the backgroundmusic for all action." This power is availableto a praying church and a praying people.Our greatest concerns should not be to"balance the budget," or church buildings,but to win and keep people for Christ andHis church. When we seek first Hiskingdom and His righteousness, all otherthings which we need will be added.

True prayer will also lead us to witnessto others. We will have a vision of and acompassion for the lost around us, and adesire to share Christ with them. There isno substitute for this kind of obedience.When we come into personal contact withGod through Jesus Christ in prayer, Hispower will go forth and our petitions willbe answered according to His will. Unto

Him be all the honor and glory. Pastor Arnold M. Stone

I love the Lord, for he heard my voice;he heard my cry for mercy. Because heturned his ear to me, I will call on him aslong as I live. (Psalm 116:1-2 NIV)

THE ‘ALLS' OF SALVATIONAfter the evening service at the mission,

the preacher was hurrying away to a latetrain. He had just three minutes in whichto catch it. Fortunately, the station wasclose at hand. A gentleman came runningafter him. "Oh, sir," said he, breathlessly, ashe came up, "can you speak to me? I amvery anxious about my soul." "Well,"replied the missionary, "my train is justhere, and it is the last one; but look upIsaiah 53:6. Go in at the first 'all,' and goout at the last 'all.' Good night." Thegentleman stood staring after him until hedisappeared into the station, and then hemuttered, "Go in at the first 'all' and go outat the last 'all.' What does it mean?” Whenhe arrived at home he got out a Bible. Heturned to the text and read these words:"All we like sheep have gone astray; wehave turned everyone to his own way; andthe Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of usall." "Go in at the first 'all," he repeated."'All we like sheep have gone astray.' I amto go in with that 'all.' Yes, I see. It justmeans I am one of those who have goneastray. And go out with the last 'all." 'TheLord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.'I see. Yes, I am to go out free with thosewhose iniquity has been laid on Christ."

That short, pithy comment brought, by theHoly Spirit, light and peace to that man'sconscience and heart, and he rejoicedChrist as his Savior. The Christian Herald

O come, let us worship and bow down:let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. ForHe is our God; and we are the people ofHis pasture and the sheep of His hand.(Psalm 95:6-7. NRS)

LENT IS FOR MELent can be springtime to the soul a

renewal of the spirit, a revival of faith, theresurgence of the spiritual life. And whowould say that he does not need such anexperience?

Schools require periodic refreshercourses for their teachers; sales firmsdemand that their personnel attendbriefing sessions; most establishmentsrequire and encourage their key membersto visit institutes and conventions in orderto keep up with new trends and fashions.

Christians, too, need to refresh the souland intensify the alertness of faith andconscience. Lent is a special opportunityfor this. We need its services, its disciplines,its emphasis, its preaching, and its theme:"Christ died for all," to be drawn closer tothe Savior. We dare not neglect theopportunity of Lent lest our hearts growcold and our faith become weak.

The Elim Messenger

Praise the Lord! Oh, give thanks to theLord, for He is good! For His mercyendures forever. (Psalm 106:1 NKJ)

TRUST AND NOT FEAR"I will trust, and will not be afraid,"

(Isaiah 12:2). This brief sentence has beencalled a pivot text, for its turns in threedirections. We can view it from the past,the present, and the future.

THE WORD POINTS TO THE PAST."Thou wast angry with me, thy anger didstturn away, and thou didst comfort me". Hehad sinned against God, and felt that Godwas angry and displeased with him. TheHoly Spirit was at work in his conscience.Every heart that is open to the Holy Spirit'sconviction senses its guilt of sin. This is thework of the Holy Spirit—to cause us to beaware of our sin, so that we are compelledto bring our sins to God and humblyconfess it. When we do this in all sincerity,then the feeling of guilt is removed. Hisanger is turned away; instead He comfortsand consoles our hearts.

THE WORD POINTS TO THE PRESENT."The Lord God is my strength and mysong, and he is become my salvation".Where before there was weakness and fear,now there was strength. Where there wassorrow over sin, and a sense of guilt, nowthere was a song of praise. Where therewas fear of condemnation, now he rejoicedin salvation. What a change had takenplace. And it was not something which theprophet himself had brought about—it wasthe work of God. "What a wonderfulchange in my heart has been wrought,since Jesus came into my heart". Many aforgiven and released sinner can join inthat song. "He has become my salvation"—so now I rejoice in what I have in Him. And

Page Five

that joy never grows dim, because He isalways the same. He is life, and when Ihave Him in my heart, I have salvation.

THE WORD POINTS TO THE FUTURE."With joy will I draw water from the wellsof salvation". They who seek their joy inthe "things" of this world, soon find thatthese are but "broken cisterns that can holdno water". They are soon disappointed,and sick at heart, so they turn elsewhere.For them it is a ceaseless search whichnever satisfies. But the water which theLord gives truly satisfies, brings life andpeace in daily fellowship, as well as a livinghope for the future. What is the conditionof your mind and heart? Can you truly say,"I will trust, and will not be afraid?” Or doesthis sound strange to you. Do not accuseHim of not satisfying your heart until youhave given Him a fair trial. You mustexperience it in order to be blessed thereby.Many of us have experienced that "Jesussatisfies". And so we urge, "Try Jesus".

A.W. Knock

Blessed be the name of the Lord, Fromthis time forth and forevermore! (Psalm113:2 NKJ)

THE ROAD TO HEAVEN"I will instruct you and teach you the

way you should go; I will counsel you withmy eye upon you" (Psalm 32:8).

In Switzerland, a traveler has told thisexperience. He had driven out into thecountryside, but after he had gone somedistance he became confused in hisdirections. Finally, he stopped a lad playing

by the roadside and asked where a certainvillage was. He received a significantanswer: "I don't know where the town is,sir, but there is the road to it." All the whilehe pointed in the direction of the road.

There are many things we as Christiansdo not know even about our faith and thematters of the kingdom of God. We do notknow where heaven is, but we know theroad to it. In Scripture, the Lord remindsus of the fact that narrow is the road whichleads to life. The only reason many of usbecome bewildered and lost in thisbusiness of living is that we don't follow thevoice that God has provided to direct us inthe way that we should go.

The Lord has not made it difficult forany of us to find peace in this life, or toknow the eternal security which can beours forever. These are freely offered asgifts from Him. The only condition Hestipulates is that we follow Him. If werefuse to do this and go the broad way, wecannot expect to arrive at the destinationHe provided which will bring us the joy thatwe are seeking. His is the only way thatleads to eternal life in Christ our Savior.Though we do not know what the futurehas in store, we need not be afraid if wewalk life's way with God. We do not knowthe location of heaven, but let us makecertain that we are walking the road thatleads to it.

Show us the road to eternal life dearGod and Father, and guide us daily on thispath, that we may travel confidentlythrough the unknown and into the glory ofThy heaven. Rev. Reuben K. Youngdahl

STEP BY STEPHe does not lead me year by yearNot even day by day. But step by step my path unfolds; My Lord directs my way.

Tomorrow's plans I do not know, I only know this minute; But He will say, "This is the way. By faith now walk ye in it."

And I am glad that it is so: Today's enough to bear; And when tomorrow comes, His grace Shall far exceed its care.

What need to worry then, or fret? The God who gave His Son Holds all my moments in His handAnd gives them, one by one.

WHAT WILL I GET OUT OF LENT?March 1 is Ash Wednesday this year.

As Lent approaches, is there anyanticipation of quickening in my soul? Isthere any longing for a new warmth andlife in my Christian service? Is there anyyearning for a fresh outpouring of theSpirit's power for spiritual awakeningaround me? Is not my answer indicative ofmy spiritual condition today?

What will I get out of Lent this year?The question searches my soul today. Lentis not a time of outward form and denialfor mere self-righteousness' sake. Neitheris it a time of spiritual magic. Nor is it onlyanother round of church activities. Lent isa time when I have special opportunity toface life's greatest issue as it comes to a

focus in the message of the Cross of JesusChrist. What will I do with thisopportunity? What will I do with it for myown soul—and for the souls of thosearound me? I cannot pass this way withoutbeing held accountable. Nor can I gothrough with this observance withouteither profit or injury. May God break thebarriers! May He pierce manmade formand tradition! I want to stand in His lightthis Lent. Better not to observe Lent at allunless something happens to this spiritualdullness of mine.

What will I get out of Lent this year?Searchingly, the question intimates, "Whatdo I want to get out of it? What am Ilooking for?” It points to the condition ofmy soul now. Then also, it intimates, "Howwill I make use of the special Lentenopportunity?” It points to my willingnessto face the issue about myself and aboutChrist.

God calls me to account. This bringsthings to light. If I am willing to "walk inthe light as he is in the light," then I amwilling, before God, and man, to know andbe known as to my true spiritual condition.Before God then, I excuse or hide nothing—absolutely nothing. Putting aside allartificiality, I lay my heart bare before Him.Before my fellow men, too, I am honestabout myself. If I walk in pretense I walk indarkness. So, I drop my mask and live inthe open with my brothers. As onedevotional writer puts it, "We are willing togive up our spiritual privacy, pocket ourpride and risk our reputation for the sakeof being open and transparent with our

Page Eight

brethren in Christ." I may be stronglytempted to shrink from the light, but in thedark, there is no fellowship, no cleansing.

What will I get out of Lent? Thatdepends on my willingness to searchmyself and make use of this specialopportunity to get things set right.

Rev. E. G. Gjelten

By His own blood He entered in once,into the holy place, having obtained eternalredemption for us. (Hebrews 9:12b KJV)

A MAN OF SORROWSWho hath believed our report? and to

Whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? Forhe shall grow up before him as a tenderplant, and as a root out of a dry ground: hehath no form nor comeliness: and when weshall see him, there is no beauty that weshould desire him. He is despised andrejected of men; a man of sorrows, andacquainted with grief: and we hid as it wereour faces from him; he was despised, andwe esteemed him not.

Surely he hath borne our griefs, andcarried our sorrows: yet we did esteem himstricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. Buthe was wounded for our transgressions, hewas bruised for our iniquities: thechastisement of our peace was upon him;and with his stripes we are healed. All welike sheep have gone astray; we haveturned everyone to his own way; and theLord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yethe opened not his mouth: he is brought asa lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheepbefore her shearers is dumb, so he opened

not his mouth. (Isaiah 53:1-7 KJV)But if we walk in the light as he himself

is in the light, we have fellowship with oneanother, and the blood of Jesus his Soncleanses us from all sin. (I John 1:7 NRS)

Jesus our Lord, was delivered for ouroffenses, and was raised for ourjustification. (Romans 4:25 KJV)

BENEATH THE CROSS OF JESUSElizabeth Clephane, the author of this

hymn, was born in Edinburgh, Scotland in1830 and lived most of her life in the villageof Melrose. Her father was the countysheriff. She was a woman acquainted withgrief, but never let that stop her. Herparents both died while she was young,and she was never very healthy herself.Nevertheless, she was one of thosecheerful people who brighten everycorner—perhaps because she focused onwhat she could do for others rather thansitting and feeling sorry for herself. Herfriends called her “Sunbeam”—a nicknamethat may have inspired the lines in thishymn that say:

“I ask no other sunshine thanThe sunshine of His face.”

Elizabeth loved poetry and wroteseveral hymns. The other one with whichyou might be familiar is “The Ninety andNine,” a hymn inspired by Jesus’ parableabout a shepherd who had a hundredsheep, but left the ninety-nine to search forthe one that was lost—a parable aboutGod’s love (Matthew 18:12-14).

Page Nine

In her hymn, “Beneath the Cross ofJesus,” Elizabeth alluded to a passage inIsaiah that speaks of “the shade of a greatrock in a weary land” (Isaiah 32:1-2).

Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand, The shadow of a mighty Rock Within aweary land;

A home within the wilderness, A rest upon the way, From burning of the noon-tide heat, And burdens of the day.

Upon the cross of Jesus Mine eye at times can see The very dying form of One Who suffered there for me:

And from my stricken heart with tears Two wonders I confess, The wonders of redeeming love, And my own worthlessness.

I take, O cross, thy shadowFor my abiding-place I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of His face;

Content to let the world go by, To know no gain nor loss My sinful self my only shame, My glory all, the cross.

O come, let us sing unto the Lord: letus make a joyful noise to the rock of oursalvation. Let us come before His presencewith Thanksgiving, and make a joyful noiseunto Him with Psalms. Psalm. (95:1-2.KJV)

GETHSEMANEAll those who journey, soon or late, Must pass within the garden's gate; Must kneel alone in darkness there, And battle with some fierce despair. God pity those who cannot say: "Not mine but thine;" who only pray: "Let this cup pass," and cannot see The purpose in Gethsemane.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

BUT KNOWING HOWHad we been there when up the hillOur Master bore the cross,We should have followed slow and still And sorrowed for our loss.

But knowing now that loss as gain, Let us rejoice and cry, "Come you and hear, for He was slain To gather us on high!"

G. J. Neumann

CALVARYMy sin brought Christ to CalvaryTo suffer there and die, From stain of guilt to set me free That I might live on high;

My sin brought Christ to CalvaryHow great that sin must be!His love brought Christ to CalvaryTo suffer in my place,

That now, and through eternity,I might live in His grace.His love brought Christ to CalvaryHow great that love must be!

BUT WE HAVE FORGOTTEN GODWe have been the recipients of the

choicest bounties of Heaven; we havegrown in numbers, wealth, and power asno other nation has ever grown. But wehave forgotten God. We have forgotten thegracious hand which preserved us in peaceand multiplied and enriched andstrengthened us, and we have vainlyimagined, in the deceitfulness of our heartsthat all these blessings were produced bysome superior wisdom and virtue of ourown. Intoxicated with unbroken success,we have become too self-sufficient to feelthe necessity of redeeming and preservinggrace, too proud to pray to the God thatmade us.

JUST FOR TODAY!"Just for today"— What helpful meaning underlies That word, as daily I arise, And pray, "Just for today!" "Just for today."

No earthly plans I entertain—But say, "Just for today." "Just for today."

So, gracious Father, keep Thou me,As trustingly I leave with TheeMy way “Just for today."

He died for all, that they that live shouldno longer live unto themselves, but untohim who for their sakes died and roseagain. (II Corinthians. 5:15 ASV)

FORGETTING LENT?Shall we forget too soon what He has done To bring us happiness and peace of mind? Or shall we, as each morning we arise, Remember what He did to save mankind? Shall we forget too soon His sufferingAnd how He died upon the Cross for us? Or shall we, as each evening we retire, Remember how He prayed inhumbleness? Shall we forget too soon how in His loveHe begged forgiveness for His enemies? Or shall we, too, in thoughtfulness andlove Remember to forgive those whodisplease? Shall we forget too soon our risen Lord, Who, in His mercy, counted not the cost? Or shall we, in due thankfulness andprayer,Remember that without Him we are lost?

HAVE FAITH IN GODHave faith in God; His love enfolds; No sparrow falls but He beholds. No task too hard, no need too smallFor Him whose love embraceth all.

Have faith in God, and you will find Contentment lies in peace of mind. The light of God surrounds your way; His power protects you night and day.

Have faith in God through stress andstrain; He'll give you courage, and you'll gainAssurance that your every need Is met; and you'll have peace indeed!

Have faith in God through joy or pain; He's at your side in sun or rain. Our fathers' God will always be The same through all eternity.

Have faith in God where'er you be; His great love shall encompass thee. In lowest vale, on highest hill Oh, soul of man, be still, be still!

GETHSEMANETwas lonely in Gethsemane, The shadows heavy lay, As in His bitter agony The Master knelt to pray. I think the very stars grew dim,

The lilies hung their headsIn loving sympathy for HimAs bloody sweat He shed. The angel choirs from heaven above Were hushed around the throne, When Jesus in forgiving love Knelt there, to pray alone.
