Bible Comment:
Rightness
Plus Strength
Banishes Evil
'J'HERE are two kinds of large-
ness or greatness; greatness
in quantity and" greatness in
quality.
Conquerors and dictators have
changed the face of history by
the sheer hordes of violent men
whom they have poured over
vast regions, as in the days of
Genghis Khan and Attila.
History is also rife with the
story of how gieat armies have
been overthrown and put to rout
by much smaller forces of cou
rageous, resolute men.
Of the latter, the Biblical and
classic example is Gideon. He
stands as the conspicuous ex
ample of belief in strength and
greatness a$ consisting in quality.
That a general should reduce
instead of inrease his army
against apparently overwhelming
odds would seem to be the height
of folly. • Yet that is exactly what
Gideon did.
Gideon's strategy and devices
were relatively Simple. He re
jected the men, who, stooping
down, took a long time to drink,
and chose instead the three hun
dred who quickly lapped up the
water and went on.
Then, knowing how great hosts
in a false cause can be put into
fear and. confusion, with his
lamps, pitchers, and trumpets,
Gideon put his fear-stricken
enemy to flight.
It is a mistake to believe that
the physical forces of violence
and evil can be successfully op-*
posed only by spiritual forces
and means. The physical nature
of the danger must be met.
What the story of Gideon em
phasizes is that a strong right
arm, backed by faith and cour
age, will win against the forces
of evil.
In time of danger let us mus
ter all our strength and then
back it up with all the faith,
rourage and wise strategy of
Gideon and his resourceful three
hundred.
