IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY I CHOOL L. esson By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. D. D. Dean of The Mcody Bible Institute of Chicago. © Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for November 20 THE SACKED NESS OF THE HOME LESSON TEXT—Exodus 20:14; Matthew 5:27 , 28; Mark 10:2-18. GOLDEN TEXT—Keep thyself pure.—I Timothy 5:22. v International amphitheatre in Chicago, home of the exposition. Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. The importance of the home as the divinely appointed center of all human life has always made it a special target of Satan. That’ on slaught of the power of hell is ap parently redoubled in our day. Books, plays, movies, magazines, all contribute their filthy efforts to break down all sense of moral re sponsibility. Sex is magnified, and not in any useful or normal sense, but rather for the stimulating of un holy desires and purposes, the breaking down of Christian stand ards of living and the ultimate pros titution of the most sacred of all human relationships to a level of which animals might well be ashamed. The lesson of today should be taught with care and tact, but also with a holy boldness and a plain ness that will make it effective for God and for our homes. We begin with a word which is little spoken, while far too often the sin for which it stands is practiced and tolerated. I. Adultery — a Grievous Sin (Exod. 20:14; Matt. 5:27, 28). First, let us note that any viola tion of the divine plan for the mar riage of one man and one woman, in loving communion for the found ing and maintenance of the home, is a direct violation of the law of God. It is also a violation of the law of man. It brings serious re sults in the destruction of the home, and in the ruin of individual life— physical, moral, and spiritual. The words of Jesus broaden the interpretation of the commandment to cover all sexual impurity in thought, word, or deed. While we recognize that the outw4rd act of immorality carries with it con sequences both in the life of the in dividual and those with and against whom he sins, which do not follow upon the thought of evil without the act, yet it is true that essentially he is guilty who had it in his heart to do the wicked thing even though a sense of prudence or circumstances hindered its execution. We need clean hearts and minds if there are to be clean lives. II. Marriage—a Divine Institution (Mark 10.:6-8). As the proper background for a discussion of divorce our Lord makes clear that marriage was or dained by God, and that it involves a holy union of two individuals which makes them one. All those who look forward to marriage should realize that it is not a casual thing, or a merely temporary legal contract. It is a union for life—be it for better or worse, in sickness or health, in prosperity or adversity. All who are married should there fore highly regard their sacred vows. III. Divorce Limited and Remar riage Forbidden (Mark 10:2-4, 10- 12). This passage, and . other scrip tures, teach that divorce is not per mitted except on the ground of adul tery (Matt. 5:32), and that any re marriage involves the parties in the guilt of adultery. Aware as we are of the laxness of some branches of the church in such matters, and the almost entire lack of standards in the world, we cannot but present the plain teachings of our Lord and urge every reader to follow the commandment of God’s Word. There can be no question that di vorce is a major evil in our day. The writer has been astonished to find one family after another in his own respectable neighborhood where the children bear one name and their mothers another, or there are two' "sets” of children in one family with different surnames be cause of divorce and remarriage. In some cases he knows of the fa thers of children coming to see their offspring at the home of the second husband. What utter confusion such situations must create in the minds and hearts of the boys and girls! IV. Children—the Gift of God to the Home (Mark 10:13-16). How relieved we are to leave the consideration of such sordid, even though vitally important, matters as moral impurity anv divorce, and turn to the beautiful picture of Christ blessing the little children. It would appear that Jesus desired to turn the thought of His hearers from the negative “thou shalt not” to the positive solution of the home problem. Children make the home. They are God’s benediction upon the marriage of man and woman. Sad and disillusioned will be the men and women who make themselves childless, hoping thus for more com fort and pleasure. The road to hap piness does not go that way. The soft and tender baby hand has led many a couple to full happiness, and the joy of watching our children grow into manhood and woman hood cannot be evaluated in the mint of gold or earthly pleasures. — Smart Cushions From Odds, Ends By RUTH WYETH SPEARS ^T'HERE cgmes a letter from a reader ordering both of the sewing books offered below. She says, “I have to smile when peo ple tell me it does not pay to sew. Recently I had a regular spree of doing over the living room. I spent $10.35 for materials. The sewing machine and I did the rest. Here is what the ten thirty-five bought. New slipcovers for the davenport and two chairs, chintz curtains for three windows, a new ottoman and a lamp shade. The slipcover for the davenport alone would have cost fifteen dollars if made outside.” It now seems that there is a need for more color in the newly decorated living room. The cur tains are very gay but the new slipcovers rather neutral. Why not repeat some of the curtain col ors with bright cushions? A clever girl I know saves the good parts of old silk dresses and blouses and buys remnants of bright silks and ribbons for this purpose. Her pillows are always most profes sional looking. If contrasting pieces are joined, she uses cov ered cords in the seams and con trasting cordings and neat little frills around the edges to repeat the strongest tones in the room. In this way many different kinds of material may be brought into harmony. NOTE: You also may have smart slipcovers, curtains and dozens of things you have been wanting. Mrs. Spears’ books have helped thousands of women. She tells you quickly with pictures the things it would take years to learn by old-fashioned methods.
