A man of peace hi a wartorn world Imaj Deem to be a bit out of place, {but he assuredly is not if the peace ihe has and promotes Is the peace of God. Our world has seen anew a dem- loostratian of the awful results of the I philosophy that might makes right. Violence and bloodshed have been •man's way of asserting his supposed or assumed rights. Om could hope that we are now ready to recognize |that we need a new idewpoint, that .patience and . meekness are not (weakness, that kindness and love are {Christian virtues worth emulating {and cultivating. ! That result can come only if men will recognize Christ as the King of their lives and nations will receive His Word as their law. Let us pro* claim His truth and the gospel of His grace anew, and win aU we can to 1^. Isaac was a man of peace. He ‘was a rather ordinary man, one of the common people, but his life is both interesting aind instructive. He had come throu^ varied experi ences of victory ffld defeat before the time of pur lesson. Fearing a famine, and apparently not tnist* ing Godltt the moment, he had gone down from the promised land to the country of the Philistines, there re digging the wells which his father Abraham had'dug. The result was that he prospered. 'Ere long, how ever, envy on the part of his ene* miss taught Isaac that one may ex pect I. Strife in the World (w. 19-21). Isaac had prospered, 'but he was still out of the promised land, and Whlle.be was.in the land of'Philis-. tfi^ he could expect no permanent peace. We are in the world.

But, let us not be misled by that desire intn the support of unscr^tural and, impossible peace programs. This world is a sinful world, and as long as that is true, there will be strife j and war. i Our business in such a world ia to preach the gospel of grace,^ win ning men to Chri^ that they mayj become men of good wilL Isaac was, such a man, willing to yield even. what seemed to be his ri^t, rather I than cause contention. Undoubtedly there are times when one must defend his name and his possessions, but all too often those who do "stand for their rights" have wrecked homes, churches, and na tions, and have gained nothing but' an empty victory. The peace of this world is tem porary. Is there then no real abid ing peace and Joy? t n. Joy In God's Ftflewshlp (w. 22-25). When Isaac came up into Canaan, the land which God had promised to him. he found real peace and an abiding Joy in renewed fellowship with God, Even so, the Christian man and woman who will step out of a spiritually destructive fellow ship with the ungodly world and come over wholeheartedly into the spiritual Canaan of full consecration and separate living, will tod true peace and satisfying communion with God. m. Testimony in Right Living (w. 2M1). These men were wicked men, even speaking falsehood in their claim of friendship toward Isaac (v. 29). Now that they perceived that God was continually blessing Isaac in spite of their repeated injustice to ward him, they decided it would be well to make a covenant of friend ship with him. Even those who fol low the way of war and aggression cannot deny the effectiveness of true Christian testimony. Observe also that by hia patience and kindness, Isaac ultimately made friends out of his enemies. "It is better to turn enemies into friends than to beat them, and have them 'enemies still." ^d so this man with the patienti self-sacrificing spirit brought peace not only to him- selfr but to those about him, because he believed and trusted God. “When a man’s ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enenries to be at peace with him" (Prov. 18:7). 'IV. Blessing in Service (w. 32, 33). The thing to do when the selfish ness of others is about to cause strife is to go and "dig another well." If we will do that, we will find that God has been there ahead of us and prei>ared 'll rich flow of fre^ water with which we may re fresh and encourage ourselves. Isaac’s men said, "We have found water,’’ and he then named the place Beersheba, which means "the well of the oath,’’ referring undoubt edly to God’s fulfilled promise to bless him. He had found the way of peace, fellowship and blessing, because he had gone God’s Bethnne News Notes The children and grandchildren of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Watts en Giant Annuals Both the common ragweed and the giant ragweed are annuals thst re produce and spread only by seeds.
