Charity is univer* sal,.admitting of no'exrep ions. It en compasses enemy as well as friend, poor as well as rich. It takes no stock of differences of race, creed, or social or cultural background.* The man of charity sees in every other' human being a creature as truly God- made as he is himself. Charity brings hope and peace to life. It is the secret weapon through which alone the world may expect to Six-Inch Sermon By REV. ROBERT H. HARPER s Charity is a bedrock virtue, not a thing 6f moods or gushes. The man who comes home after doing some good deed for a stranger might be grouchy with his .wife, or lose his temper with the children. These lapses may not be serious^ but they . . suggest, at the very least, that a^genqine and enduring peace, lacks the quality of soul which gen uine charity involves. Charity is not simply being gen erous or helpful ^toward others. Char ity is also patience and forbearance. It is humility and Understanding. It is love for God expressed in love of neighbor. Charity is identifying one self with others in their needs and difficulties, whether these be physical, emotional or spiritual. ■ * What makes charity a supreme vir- In these days of .east-west tensions, of mounting international suspicions and fears, the greatest need is for a rededication, to the spirit of brother hood—this is but another najae_ for charity—between men and nations. Hate, which is the destruction of charity, spells eventual catastrophe.
