Dr. Waller A. Maier
Cleveland. Ohio. November 3 (Special) Two increasing
menaces of the Christian faith. Communism and divorce
Here attaeekd today by Dr. Walter A. Maier in his weekly
message over the International Lutheran Hour, the most
wide spread program in radio history. Stating that the
Church in the first century “had all things common” Dr.
Maier said: “That was real communism. Don't let anyone
tell you that the Chcrch is against communism itself. The
Church has no business to pronounce on any social, econom
ic or political arrangement in which the rights of Cod and
man are not disregarded. I veople, of their own free will,
want to abolish private property and share their money, that
is their privilege. The Church, which is certainly not exclu
sively the capitalist's friend, nor in any way the working
man's foe. would have no protest against such communism
today. But it is irreconcilably opposed to the atheism, the
ridicule of Christ, the blasphemy, which has unfailingly
markt-d modern Coniunism. Let us pray and work that
those who have cried, 'Down with the churches!’ may be
brought to Christ!”
Citing divorce as a parallel evil, the radio speaker declar
ed: “The immorality fostered by two world wars—and noth
ing tears decency down more qcicklv than bloodshed—has
often pushed family life back to the pagan days when divorce
was easy, quick and applauded. Last year, in our so-called
Christian country, there were 1,600,000 marriages, but 502,
000 divorces—twenty-five percent more than in the highest
previous year. About one marirage broken for every three
made! Some years an expert predicted that if the rate of
marital failure continued, in fifty years there would be as
manv divorces as marriages. In the light of today’s figures,
however, we must revise all this and realize that if the twen
ty five percent annual increase in divorce keeps on, not in
fifty years, but in five, the number of divorces will exceed
the number of marriages. God prevent that! '

His Holy apostles. Its doctrinal
basis has never needed revision
and that for the simple reason
that it is the basis of God’s Word.
In other words,' the Lutheran
Church is founded upon Him, of
whom it is written: ‘‘Other found
ation can no man lay than that is
laid, which is Jesus Christ”.
It is important that churches
today build on that foundation.
People will not be satisfied un
less they have the conviction that
what they believe is taught clear
ly in Holy Scripture. It is a joy
indeed to be able to quote clear
Bible texts when matters of doc
rine are discussed with friends,
neighbors, or church members. It
is also a source of strength.
Hope Lutheran clings to this
foundation of which Jesus Christ
is the chief cornerstone. You are

Preaching from St. Mathew 26
Chapter 46 vs. ‘‘Rise let us be
going; behold, He is at hand that
doth betray me”, and St. Mark 14
chapter 42 vs. ‘‘Rise let us go; lo
he that betray me is at hand”,
were the two parallel scriptures
taken by our pastor for his insp
iring message Sunday, October 27
at 11:00 am. His subject was ’‘The
Rising Tide” and his thoughts for
the day were as follows: Accom
plishment is achieved by a man
that can face the issue and not
run away; there is a rising tide
in the experience of a man if he
is identified with our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ that will make
his rise up from the things of
the world; and that the Spirit of
God generated by the rising tide
of his love will lift a man to a
mgner ^nrisuan level.

MEMORY SELECTION — But we be
lieve that through the grace of the Lore
Jesus Christ we shall be saved, ever
as they.—Acts 15:11.
Fundamental doctrine must b<
sound and true or the church will gc
astray. A question had arisen at An
tioch which had to be answered au
thoritatively, and once for all.
The early converts of the church
were naturally from among thf
Jews, and they carried with f.ienr
into their new-found faith the tradi
tions of their religion. Some of therr
did not recognize that the salvatior
they had in Christ was entirely by
grace, apart from any works of th<
law. They not only felt that they
must observe the law. but insisted
that the Gentile believers must alse
fulfill the Jewish rite of circumci
sion. This promptly raised the
question whether Christ alone could
save, or if men were saved by gract
plus works.
To settle this matter, Paul anc
Barnabas went up to the church a?
Jerusalem, and there a great coun
cil discussed it freely, and carm
to a decision which was then trans
mitted by letter and a committee.
That decision established an eter
nal
I. Principle—Believers Are Free
from the Law (Acts 15:23b-29).
The believers at Antioch were to
abstain from those things which
would hinder their spiritual prog
ress and harm their testimony. Tha*
was important and right, but it
must not be allowed to confuse them
regarding the basis of their salva
tion. They were not saved by
works, not even though they were
most commendable.
Salvation is by grace, through
faith, ‘‘not of works, lest any man
should boast” (Eph. 2:8, 9). That
principle, which is absolutely foun
dational in all Christian thinking,
was established then, and is valid
and blessedly true for all time. i
is it not strange, men, mat all
through the church’s history there
has been a determined effort cn
the part of some in the church to
add something to God’s redeeming j
grace as a ground for salvation? I
Observe the plain rebuke glvet
to teachers of error in verse 24.
It is no light matter to trouble and
mislead the souls of men by inject
ing our worldly, wisdom or our:
opinions, when we should be teach
ing the truth of God’s Word.
Salvation by grace and freedom
from the law does not bring the be
liever into a place of license, but of
liberty—and a liberty controlled by
a new factor in his life. We note
It. Practice—Believers Are Bound
by Love (Gal. 5:13-15).
The one who turns to Christ by
faith is indwelt by the Holy Spirit
and finds that, far from failing to
keep the high moral principles of
God's law, he is given grace to keep
them more perfectly. This he does,
not in order to be saved, but be
cause he is saved.
He comes out of a bondage to
legalism, which he could not bear,
into a new bondage to the law of
love, which his new nature in Christ
delights to bear and in which it
finds the fulfillment of its highest
and holiest desires.
Note that this shows itself in the
church and in the world in loving
service to others in the absence of
strife; in a word, in the practice of
the admonition: “Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as thyself” (v. 14; Lev.
19:18).
No one faces that life responsibil
ity without realizing that he is evi
dently not able for it. God has pro
vided for that need, for we note
next that there is
III. Power—Believers Are Led by
the Spirit (GaL 5:16-18).
Being saved does not set us free
from the conflict with sin, for the
old nature declares itself at enmity
with the Spirit. We find it often to
be in our hearts to do right, and in
the decisive moment we find the
flesh taking control and we cannot
do the things we would (v. 17).
What is the solution of that prob
lem? An all-out attack on sin and
sinful desires? That is commend
able, but it somehow doesn't work.
We need a superior power to work
in and through us.
That’s,it! There is a power in us
and ready to work through us—the
matchless, victorious power of the
Holy Spirit. He dwells in the heart
of every believer (I Coe. 6:1&) and
only awaits our yielding to him that
he may take control of our lives.
Walking in the Spirit (v. 16) is
simply giving him the liberty to di
rect our lives after the will of God,
day by day and moment by mo
ment. This puts us in the way of
victory, for as we walk in the Lord’s
way we may call on him for not
only his grace, but also his strength.
Saved by grace to a life of lib
erty and power—such is th£ ines
timable privilege of the Christian,

North Platte Valley Without
Natural Gas For 24 Hours
... ^
In a Press dispatch heard over Radio Station WOW in an
early morning newscast on October 28, 1946, the following
was reported:
The North Platte Valley of Nebraska has gas service again. Service was restored
Sunday to thousands of homes in the valley after an interruption of nearly 24
hours.
A break in the gas lines near Guernsey, Wyoming, early Saturday caused the
interruption. During the shutoff, business depending on gas for power was at a
standstill, and housewives had to make temporary arrangements to obtain heat
for preparing meals.
