impress on the trustees the necessity of making adequate arrangements for the education of children in each section he said he did not believe that the divided oneroom school was the answer to the problem in reply to a question on whe ther an area when formed might also include a high school in order that the stu dents would remain in the area inspector archibald stated that he believed there was adequate accommodation at the picker ing and ajax high schools to take care of present needs he noted that if another high school was erected it would probably be in a more northerly section of the township touching further on the pro blem of obtaining trained teach ers for the oneroom rural school the inspector noted that a number of trustee boards had obtained temporary relief by ac quiring summer student help he said some had given good service while others were not satisfactory all must return to teachers college after two years five trustees would adminis ter the business in one area he agreed that transportation for students from their homes to their school might be an im portant factor inspector archibald told the meeting that the area board would keep in close contact with the planning board in or der that they might be able to secure sites for future schools in areas likely to be built up actingchairman of the meet ing dep reeve sherman scott asked the gathering if they fa voured another meeting in order to secure additional informa tion a majority vote showed the trustees were desirous of obtaining more information on the plan another meeting will be held at the convenience of the inspector mr archibald the sunday school lesson obganizatiox of the church lesson for january 26 given unto me not to think more highly than he ought think soberly the meas ure of faith here is a play on acts 8 20 bom 12 1 tim 3 word phronein to think i and two compounds huper- golden text take heed phronein to over think and therefore unto yourselves and sophronein to be rational or to all the flock over the which to think soberly thinking is a the holy ghost hath made moral act in which we are to you overseers to feed the j avoid highmindednescs and cul- church of god which he hathj tivate sobriety purchased with his own blood verse 4 many members acts 2028 the lesson as a whole approach to the lesson most organizations of any size and efficiency have their personnel offices a director of personnel is a very important officer in any firm or institution not only must he determine the general fitness of an applicant for employment with his com pany but he must also discover the special aptitudes of the appj licant to determine where he would render the best service in one body not the same office keep in mind both the number and diversity of the members and the unity of the body office might better be rendered function here verse 5 one body in christ members one of an other the comparison of a social community to a body is not confined to the bible but here it rises to its fullest mean ing being fellow members of the one body makes us members of each other verse 6 gifts grace u his preference and abilities do prophecy the proportion not match the personnel direc tor will steer him in the direc tion of his talents rattier than in the direction of his wishes now it is no sin for a chris tian to desire office in the chu rch provided his aim is really to serve god and not to exalt himself but it is not his pre rogative to say what office he will hold he should apply to the personnel director the lord himself discover what gift has been bestowed upon him for the service of the church and willingly serve where that gift would be most in operation we must not forget however that more than aptitudes are in volved in the work of the church of christ even more important than ability is character in other words the qualifications are moral and spiritual as well as intellectual and social the great personnel director of the church has published these mor al and spiritual qualifications for the guidance of his people if we ignore them we invite disaster but if we are guided by them it will be for the health of the whole church this weeks lesson presents this whole question of qualifica tions on both aptitude and char acter sides it is therefore one of the most important lessons in the field of ecclesiastical op eration verse by versa rom 123 the grace bigr boud bbaxjtrfulajacl lowpriced tool of faith the grace given to paul was apostolic authority the grace given to us is the bestowal of a gift of ministry there are quite a few refer ences to the gift of prophecy in the early church but with the completion of the new testa ment scriptures it would seem to be less needed and was largely withdrawn verse 7 ministry teaching ministry is a gen eral term covering any type of service in the church it is re lated to deacon there is noth ing in the original to parallel let us wait on but something must be supplied and the asv suggests let us give ourselves to our ministry whatever we add must also be understood with respect to teaching verse 8 exhortation simplicity diligence cheerfulness the refer ence to exhorting should be a part of verse 7 as it carries the same incomplete construction the giving the ruling the show ing mercy are qualified by ad verbial phrases the word tran slated cheerfulness gives us hilarity compare 2 corinth ians 97 1 tim 31 the office of a bishop a good work bish op signifies overseer verse 2 blameless the husband of one wife sober apt to teach husband of one wife means not a bigam ist sober means abstaining from wine either entirely or at least from its immoderate use chaucer says of the parson in canterbury tales and glad ly would he learn and gladly teach so here verse 3 not given to wine filthy lucre not cove tous the asv has no brawl er for not given to wine the word describes one who sits long beside his wine filthy lu cre refers to money see 1 tim othy 610 verse 4 ruleth well his own house the old proverb that cobblers bairns are worst shod must not hold with re spect to the children of elders of the church verse 5 his own house the church of god un disciplined children are a proof that a man is not qualified to oversee the flock of god verse 6 not a novice lest he fall pride was the devils downfall and it has been the downfall of many a young christian too hastily catapulted to a place of leadership verse 7 good report see 1 corinthians 1032 col 4 5 1 thess 412 the public testimony of a church officer is a matter of highest importance verse 8 the deacons grave not doubletongued not greedy of filthy lucre for grave read honourable not given to much wine refers here to the mental attitude that induces intemperance not gree dy of filthy lucre is a different expression from verse 3 and refers to grasping shameful gains verse 9 a pure cons cience the faith is the body of truth which is to be held sin cerely not using orthodox words with heterodox meaning verse 10 let these also first be proved untried men have no right to hold office in the church but only those whose fidelity has been proved the heart of the lesson by grace are ye saved thro ugh faith says the apostle paul in his letter to the ephes- ians 28 this is not only true of our accomplished salvation which enable us to say i am saved but it is equally true of the progressive aspect of our salvation every step onward to perfection is by grace through faith the same holds good with respect to our place of service and the service we render it is all by grace through faith in our lesson foul speaks of the grace given him rom 123 and of the grace given us v 6 in both places with reference to ministry committed to him and to us in the same relation he speaks of the measure of faith given o each man and of the proportion of faith which determines the ministry v 6 exactly these are the two prin ciples which rule out boasting grace operates in the presence of need helplessness unwortht- ness while even our faith is not a meritorious practice on our part but a gift from god high- mindedness then is completely out of place in the christian church we are all members of the one body of christ each of us fulfilling his own particular function in that body now the members of our physical body do not contend for preeminence the one regarding itself as su perior to the other they all simply fulfill their several func tions so contributing to the to tal life and welfare of the body so it must be in the church each one of us should discover his particular task as a member of the body and give himself wholeheartedly to the accomp lishing of that ministry without thought of its relative dignity and importance even places of leadership are not for selfglorification but lay heavy responsibilities on those called to fill them and for that reason the qualifications are ex acting when the high offices of the church are occupied by men who lack the spiritual qualifica tions disaster follows for the whole church the holy spirit has given us through the apos tle paul clear directions in this matter of electing bishops
