24, 1941 Lesson Text. Hebrews 8 and 9. By WM. SOUTHERN, Jr. In the National Geographic magazine for July is an article entitled In the Pennsylvania Dutch Country.

It is a most fascinating story of a wonderful people. Here in a section of Pennsylvania today live communities of men and women who insist on living as nearly as possible as they have lived for more than a hundred years. The men shave their beards in the same way, wear the same flat-crowned wide-brimmed hats, the same long black coats and the women wear the same shaped bonnets and their clothing cut in the same way. Their habits of farming and eating continue as their fathers and as their fathers fathers. Especially is this true of their religion.

The churches are builded along the same style and their services are the same. In some communities they do not use automobiles. Straight to market carrying her basket strides a Men-nonite woman, dodging street cars, not stopping to window shop, but going directly to business. There are no more reliable, no finer characters on earth. Their religion is the real thing, but they are of another age, set apart from their fellows, living under The Faith of Their Fathers.

I imagine they sing the old song which we still hear in revival meetings: It was good enough for Mother and good enough for Father, and it is good enough for me. I do not believe God ever intended for anything to stand still. As the years go by the whole world changes and religion is not sufficient for a growing developing world, for intelligence which is always discovering and understanding, unless it grows and develops with the mind and character of man. The writer of the New Testament book entitled in the Authorized Version The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Hebrews and in the Revised Version The Epistle to the Hebrews was an effort to demonstrate to the Hebrews in Rome that the old covenant of God with them had been and should be supplanted by the New Covenant as exemplified in the life and death of Christ. We do not know the author of this book.

Students are inclined to believe it was not written by Paul and when attention and study is given the work one inclines to agree. The author was an educated Christian Hebrew. Analysts tell us that the book was written when the Christians in Rome were restless and uncertain. Paul and Peter had stressed the second coming of Jesus and He had not appeared. They had gone through two severe persecutions.

Unspeakable cruelties under Nero and then a time of peace and again persecution of which we only know a little, under Domitian. They were likely to lose their enthusiasm and belief in this new religion. In order to understand the text which is given us from the ninth chapter one must begin at the beginning of the chapter and read the premise. The writer describes the tabernacle made under Gods direction and used in worship in the wilderness. Here was the outer chamber where the ordinary worship meetings were held and behind the heavy gold braided and embroidered curtain was the Holy of Holies, entered but once a year and then only by the high priest on the Day of Atonement.

This was the worship of blood. Blood sprinkled on the -walls and blood sprinkled on the altar where a sacrifice had been made to God. Blood represented life. Then the argument quickly turns to the atonement of Christ who died for us all, who became the high priest for us all. Here is almost a modern illustration when the writer says: Thus in case of a will, the death of the testator must be announced.

A will only holds good in cases of death; it is never valid so long as the testator is alive. Once I was arguing before a legislative committee for a constitutional convention and made the argument that the constitution we had was made sixty years ago and was outworn. One of the members of the legislature stopped me and wanted to know if I thought the constitution ought to be rewritten simply because it was sixty years old. I answered of course No and argued for changes in our fundamental law to fit the changes in our ways of life and living. I took occasion, however, to say that fundamentals of government, the fundamentals of the government under which we live, do not change.

That the principles upon which this government were founded, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion and liberty under self government, had not changed and would not change as long as our government stood. The same is true of religion, of our faith. The Faith of Our Fathers was something fine and wonderful. I wish I could have that faith which was strong enough to banish all fear. But our methods of exemplifying that faith, our methods of living, our changing world change, not our faith in God.

When we lose that we lose everything but our methods of applying and living that faith. The writer of the Hebrews in the last verse of the eighth chapter clinches his argument with these words, And whatever is antiquated and aged is on the verge of vanishing. Human life and human experiences enlarge on that theme. Methods and styles and manners of living change in this changing world. Our fundamental faith does not change, but we change and find new and better understandings of what the faith of our fathers meant to them and are better able to understand what that same faith means to us.

This writer, who is entirely too deep for me in many places, quotes a still older verse which to me illuminates it all. He writes: I will set my laws within their mind, inscribing them upon their hearts. That is exactly what Jesus did. The old methods of tabernacle Washington (P) Eastern mo torists who plan long trips this weekend may have trouble buying enough gasoline to get back home. Filling stations in some localities have announced a gasless Sunday for the first time since 1918- And a statement by Senator George (D-Ga) indicated that pleasure car drivers troubles may only have begun.

He said he was reliably informed that a lack of oil transportation would force a one-third cut in eastern- motor fuel, against the present 10 per cent curtailment. Unverified reports circulated in congressional circles that the gov ernment had called upon American oil companies to make up a pool of 100 additional deep-sea tankers to be turned over to the British. Diversion of 50 tankers from the Atlantic coast run to serve Britain in the battle of the Atlantic precipitated the current petroleum emer gency. One member of congress said he had heard from a reliable source that 40 of 80 tankers acquired in the United States by the British before enactment of the lend-lease act had been sunk. Tomorrow will be a gasless Sunday in some eastern areas, par ticularly in some parts of northern Virginia, by individual action of filling station operators who have announced they would lock up in order to spread their limited gasoline supplies through the remainder of August.

Meanwhile, the eastern seaboard's 100,000 station operators and 10,000,000 motorists alike awaited a statement to ease the current confusion by projecting a uniform program for equitable distribution of available gasoline supplies. It was understood the office, aided by the petroleum industry, would provide a formula for limiting the motor fuel delivered at each sale, with the number of gallons determined by the individual stations supply on hand. Stations in some cities already had commenced rigid rationing to consumers, limiting each sale to five gallons. Washington (A) Leon Henderson, price administrator, imposed a schedule of ceiling prices today on Pennsylvania grade crude oils at levels 23 to 25 cents a barrel below prevailing quotations. Henderson said the price ceilings were at the levels prevailing before increases went into effect on Aug.

14. The schedule sets a ceiling price of $2.75 a barrel for Bradford crude; $2.40 a barrel for southwest Pennsylvania crude; $2.34 a barrel for Eureka crude; $2.30 a barrel for southeastern Ohio crude; and $2.63 to $2.69 for various qualities between Oil city and Titusville, Pa. The production of Pennsylvania crude oil equals about two per cent of the total daily output of crude petroleum in the United States, but it is of special value in high-grade lubricants. Henderson said that even before the increase of August 14, prices had gone up about 90 cents a barrel since November, 1940, BLACK RIVER FALLS Black River Falls, Wis. (Special) Mr.

But Jesus came and taught us how to live and love, be unselfish, treat one another as we treat ourselves, patience and forgiveness, justice, freedom and liberty of body and mind. This is what we call the Covenant of the New Dispensation and this is what the ancient writer of the letter to the Hebrew Christians in Rome was trying to tell those people to help them to a new and forward faith. The Writer Of Hebrews Explains The New Covenant Lesson Text. Heb. Print Heb.

(1) But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; (12) Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. (13) For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flash: (14) How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living (15) And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. (16) For where a testament is, there must also be necessity by the death of the testator. (17) For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth. (18) Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.

(19) For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people (20) Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. (21) Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. (22) And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. Tri-State Deaths MRS. AUGUST WOHLERT Dakota, Minn.
