TEXT 1 presa toward tho mark for the
prlzo of the hlKh calllnc of God In Christ
Jcaus.-rhll. 3:14.
In seeking an objective, the prin
ciple that nothing should bo accepted
but the best,
should be adopt
ed. When men
were thinking
deeply, and the
great doctrines ol
the Protestant
faith were being
put into creeda;
form, it was de
clared that the
chief end of mar
was the glory ol
God, and nothing
has transpired
since to Bhow
that this was nr.
error, but every
thing has Bhown most conclusively
that the statement was justified. A
man who lives with tho glory of God
In view will not, cannot fall.
The Thoughtless Multitudes.
Nothing is much more disheartening
than to watch the multitudes, especial
ly In our crowded cities, who seem to
have no goal in view. They seem to
exist for the moment butterflies that
flit before you for an Instant and then
are gone. If other companies of peo
ple are considered, the fact still con
fronts one. If bread and butter can
be secured, there Is no more concern;
but tho swine get to that pojnt. Young
people in the schools may havo a
somewhat larger appreciation of their
mission or goal, but must go forward
with nothing in view.
In a small volume recently Issued
there is this quotation: "The world
stops to let the man pass who knows
whither he is going." That man has
an objective, a goal, commands unl
versal respect, and the world gives
him passage. If this sermon falls into
the hands of some young pcrs- ,
whether he is a Christian or not, let
him know that he must have a goal In
view or he will fall in life, and if the
goal is not one that relates him to
God the falluro will bo tho greater and
more deplorable. And, if a person has
a goal and resolutely keeps his eye on
It, he will not be diverted by anything.
If the goal Is that set before him in
Paul's "fullness of the stature of
Christ," he will not be diverted by any
of the many religions now seeking the
attention of people throughout tho
world. To him, the religion" of Paul,
Luther, Calvin and Wesley will be
accepted as reliable and worthy of fol
lowing until the goal is reached.
Paul's Objective.
In the text, Paul, who was a man
doing only one thing at a time, said
that he pressed toward the mark for
the prize of the high calling ia Christ
Jesus. Without considering the strict
ly theological bearing of these words,
let us note the source of tho call. Ho
who calls Is God, who knows man, his
capacities and possibilities, and sets
beforo him his best, and- ho calls to
him to mako the attempt to reach It
Every person, old or young, should re
member thai it's God that is calling
not man, nor the greatest of men
and when God calls who dare be Indif
ferent? To what is the call and what Is the
goal? It Is to the realization of Jesus
Christ in nil his fulness. Paul Bpcaks
In a certain plac of "tho measure of
the stature of the fullness of Christ,"
which is to say, Christ, In all that ho
is and may be to us. Presuming that
that fullness applies to all that Christ
offers, let us know that to attain this
two things at least must be kcpt in
mind.
Jesus as Savior and Lord.
First, the recognition and accept
ance of Jesus Christ as a savior, pep
sonal and sufficient. This Involves tho
surrender of the intellect, the heart,
and tho will; in fact, the surrender of
tho life. Second, it ia a recognition of
tho kingship, or lordship, of Christ.
Many seem to be willing, to accept
Christ as savior, but they do not rec
ognize him ns Lord. Tho failure of the
latter utterly vitiates the former no
savior unless Christ be Lord. This
carries us back to the realm of tho
Turitans, who saw that the chief end
of man was the glory of God, for man
who accepts Jesus Christ as savior
and Lord makes every thought, word
and action tend to his glory and lib
honor.
This will naturally lead to the reali
zation of man'r. goal companionship
and partnership with Jesus Christ.
The realization of Paul's prayer can
only partially be secured on this earth,
but the perfect realization will be
when wo are with him whore he is.
This should be the ultimate goal to
be with Christ
The goals of life which seem attrac
tive and in some senses worthy soon
pass llko tho chaplet on the brow of
the ancient athlete, but there is a goal
for everyone which, If reached, will
secure a crown, a golden crown, that
is precious and durable.
Havo a goal; havo a vision; secure
n objective; keep your eyes steadily
on It and you will reach it, and, by
all means, let the objective of all be
the attainment of the stature of the
fullness of Christ
