correspondents offer the library certainly should have good support with 780 books to choose from the opening on sept 6th should have been well patronized and especially when a gift to new subscribers is given from persons 35 miles away this does not give much encouragement to the officers of this new library and very little to the one donating these gifts the correspondent was hoping to put on a set of slides with music some time in oct in the town hall unfortunate ly the lack of interest given towards the library somewhat discourages the scribe hoping the next few weeks will have more support given to this work and cooperation shown the correspondent may still be able to go ahead with an entertain ment in aid of this worthy work help the village library all you can is the desire of the board and officers and also to the corresponent of flash column sunday school lesson lesson september 17 micah a messenger op social justice golden text what doth the lord require of thee but to do justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with thy god hmicah 08 the lesson as a whole approach to the lesson the ministry of the prophets was always corrective they were sent by god to call his people back to the path of obedience while pre diction of things tocome was in cluded in their messages this by no means exhausted their content they were men who spoke for god in days of declension they had therefore an authority which no servant of god has today so far as any civil community is concerned israel was a theocracy god was their acknwledged king the pro phets were his messengers to his own covenant people the ministers of christ today are a gift to the church from the ascended lord eph 4714 they are given for the perfecting of the saints not for the regulating of the world on the other hand they are called to pro claim fearlessly those principles of righlteousness upon which christs kingdom is to be set up in order that men may see their true con dition before god and turn to him in repentance the historical setting micah called a morashtite be cause of the place of his birth a prophet to israel and judah was for the most part contemporary with isaiah and prophesied in the reigns of jotham ahaz and hezekiah kings of judah 11 and to israel after the mass of the people had been carried captive hy the assyri ans this was in the eighth century bc he predicted our saviours birthplace 52 verse by verse micah 31 is it not for you to know judgment micah addressed himself to the leaders of israel who should have known the law were responsibe to instruct people verse 2 who hate the and love the evil instead of obey ing the law they deliberately chose the- path of disobedience this led to grievous illtreatment of the poor and needy among them verse 1 who also eat the flesh of my people the common people suffered terribly because of the and the ood iniquity of those in high places verse 4 he will even hide hii face if men spurn the word of god in the days or prosperity they need not expect his help in adver sity verse 5 prophets that make my people err and cry peace it is tolly to expect peace and secur ity when gods word is despised in this day men plan for a warless world but their hopes must be in vain so long as the prince of peace is rejected verse 6 ye shall not have a vision until the will of god be comes supreme in the life men can not rightfully expect the divine approval nor receive enlightenment from heaven verse 7 there is no answer of god it is in vain to call upon god for guidance or deliverance while refusing to obey verse 8 full of power by the spirit of the lord the same holy spirit iwho energizes gods servants in this age had given to micah boldness and authority to speak unflinchingly verse 9 hear this i pray you micah pleaded with the leaders to return to god verse 10 they build up zion with blood in their efforts to aggrandize themselves and build up a great city they cared not how the poor suffered verse 11 reward hire money these were their real gods leaders priests and false prophets were concerned only for temporal gain like balaam jude 11 and simon the sorcerer acts s2023 verse 12 zion shall be plowed as a field because of their sins zion would cease to be a place of habitation and become an open field this prophesy has been liter ally fulfilled chap 60 wherewith shall i come before the lord what is it that god values as man seeks to come into his holy presence is it ritual service verse 7 shall il give my first born among the heathen sons and daughters were sacrificed to idols does god desire such offer ings verse s what doth the lord require of thee note that the question is addressed to gods cov enant people it is not the way of salvation that is here emphasized but the obedience that should characterize those who are already recognized as the children of god the heart of the lesson god wants reality he will never pemirt us to substitute ritualism or liturgical services for true heart obedience to his word to profess great zeal for the honor of the lord while ruthlessly despising those in humbler circumstances than our selves or turning away with in difference from their need is abhor rent to him who died that all men might be saved 1 john 317 we honor god as we obey his word special lesson topics and truths christ the hope of israel micah like the other prophets sets forth israels wretched internal condition and emphasizes the folly of relying upon outward observances in order to win jehovahs favor he calls the people to judge themselves in the light of his purpose to send a saviour he alone can bring in the promised blessing establishing the kingdom of god upon earth hating good and loving evil this is characteristic of the unre- generate man it is this that makes the new birth so important apart from which no man can enter the kingdom of god the spiritual re birth makes a man love what god loves and hate wha he hates john 3gb the declaration of micah 68 must not he mistaken for the gospel it is not a setting forth of the way men may be saved it tells us what god requires of those who are al ready in covenant relationship with himself it is only the regenerated man who can fulfill the conditions there laid down it is a grave mis take to substitute this for the mes sage of reconciliation through the cross of christ as many have done
