lesson as a whole love of god is shown by love to man those who acknowledge him as father should be characterized by consideration for all their brethren in christ as well as for those who are still strangers to divine grace the poor and the stranger have a special claim upon us for theirs is a peculiarly diffi cult position and by ministering to their distress we shall be rewarded as though we ministered to christ himself this refers particularly to those who belong to him mark 9 11 but he also lakes note of that which we do for all other men who are not of the household of faith gal 610 israel of old knew the heart of a stranger they had been sojourners in egypt and in the early days of their settlement in that land had been the recipients of many kind nesses gen 175 6 when a new ruling dynasty arose who knew not joseph they were made to feel their strangershi keenly and were treat ed with rigor and cruelty as an alien and unwanted people god would have them learn from their own experience how much is invol ved in courteous treatment of the stranger while the subject of matthew 25 is the judgment of the living i nations at the premillennial return of the lord to set up his kingdom there are principles involved in the way the son of man is pictured as evaluating the behavior of the nations toward even the least of his brethren that should be helpful to us all he never overlooks anv- thing done for the weakest of his people the manner in which these people received and treated his messengers showed whether or not there was real faith in their souls i judgment is always according to works rev 2013 for- works good or evil manifest the state of the soul and show whether one has real faith in christ or not verse by verse exod 22 21 thou shalt neither vex a

of their obligations toward them jas 127 isa 123 verse 23 if thou afflict them i will surely hear their cry it is not here a question of the spirit ual intelligence of afflicted strang ers widows and orphans but if in their distress they cry out to god as creator he will hear them and will deal in righteous judgment with their persecutors deut 2414 thou shalt not onnress an hired servant or thy strangers that are in thy land it is contrary to gods holy law and therefore a grievous sin in his sight to take an unfair advantage of the needy particularly strangers who are in our land to exploit them by forced or illpaid labor is to expose oneself to the judgment of god the more helpless these needv ones are the more consider ate should we be toward them verse 15 at his day thou shalt give him his hire this entire verse sternly forbids employers needless ly deferring payment of wages to those who work for them it is easy for men of wealth to forget how important ones daily or weekly wages may be to those in less fort unate circumstances the child of god who employs others should be very careful to pay attention to the principle laid clown here matt 2531 them on his right hand in the judgment of the liv ing nations at the second advent of our lord he will set those whom he recognizes as his sheep on his right hand for our present pur pose however we need not go into this at

precious in his sight whatever their circumstances wptb questions and answers q we would like to sell our car which is a 3j model could you tell me if this would have to go through the wptb or is it just the later model cars a- it would dejiniielv have to go through the wptb in case you have not already got a ceiling price quotation on vour car from the wptb we have mail ed you application forms

and gave me a gas stove now i have to pay my gas bill and nothing is taken off my rent can she do- this 1 am expecting she will ask me to leave soon before i can get another place a when a tenants rent is not adjusted to make up for reduc ed services the tenant has the right to apply at the wptb rentals office for a reduction in rent you should call in at the nearest office or write in for the proper forms which you may complete in applying for a re duction as far as notice to vacate is concerned all shared housing accommodation such as you have comes under six months notice which may be given anytime during the year q is my landlord allowed togive me one months notice by tele phone he sent a man around a week ago to tell me 1 had to get out or take a flat which he lives in and allow him the eight roomed house the man srid he came from the rental board and asked me for 10 to tear up the papers 1 refused to give him the money a you were indeed very wise when you refused to give this man 10 in the first place your landlord is not permitted to give you notice of any kind much less one months notice by telephone it would seem that he is attempting to make his own regulations

the name and ad dress of your landlord we will investigate this matter for you q is there a ceiling price on re pairs 1 had my radio repaired and feel the price charged was exorbitant a repairs of this type have been removed from the price ceiling regulations day of manifestation verse 10 inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren ye have done it unto me strickly speaking in accordance with exact interpreta tion these will be the lords words to those among the gentile nations who in the dark days of the great tribulation will welcome shelter and minister to his brethren jewish believers who in those ter rible times will go forth to carry the gospel of the kingdom through out the world hut while there is but one true interpretation of a passage there mav be many appli cations and we may gather from these words how the lords heart goes out to all who show any kind ness to even the least of his breth ren those who are born of god in this age of grace verse 41 depart from me ye cursed such are his words to those who treated his representa tives either with contumely or in difference while the faith of the sheep was manifested by their works as they received his mes sengers and cared for their needs the goats showed their lack of saving faith by their utter uncon- icern for those who came to them 1 1 en verse 35 i was a stranger and ye took me in
