THE INTERNATIONAL
LUTHERAN HOUR
“Over Station KBOIS
Every Sunday morn’
11:30 P. M.
—Publicity Department —
3558 South Jefferson Ave.
Saint Louis, Missouri
Miami, Florida, February 23 (Sp
‘‘The war cost the Christian forces
of the world a prohibitive price,”
Dr. Walter A. Maier of Concordia
Seminary, Saint Louis, declared
here today in an International Lu
theran Hour Broadcast. Discuss
ing the religious losses sustained
in the conflict, he listed the follow
ing: “One, millions of church mem
bers killed; two, thousands of
clergymen or theological students
maimed, murdered or massacred;
three, billions of dollars lost in
church bombed to pieces; four,
missionary opportunities restrict
ed and some important fields clos
ed by opposition to Christ; five,
the loss of missionary influence in
heathen quarters where natives,
viewing the bloody conflict by the
Christian people, conclude that the
Gospel has failed; six, the bank
ruptcy of many believers who, hav
ing become penniless, are unable
to promote the progress of Christ’s
Kingdom; seven, the surrender of
many former followers of Christ
in the defeated nations to ugly
atheism.”
Eight years ago this broadcast
predicted that whoever else tri
umphs in this war, atheistic Com
munism is sure to win. That pro
phecy has been fulfilled before our
eyes. Whether we realize it or
not, the Church of Jesus Christ
faces its hardest struggle since the
early Apostolic days and their
bloody persecution. And the deep
est tragedy of all is that many who
once publicly confessed Christ
their Savior have now become a
shamed of Him and joined His en
emies.
Dr. Maier asked for a rededicat
ion to the prime purpose of Christ
ian churches: World-Wide spread
of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. 1
of Jesus Christ, sent by God the
Father into a world at odds with
God, giving Himself into death to
pay the penalty of man’s sin, to
gain forgiveness and peace and de
liver man from' the valley of the
shadow of death.
In these days of emotional strain
when men’s hearts are failing
them for fear, we need the preach
ing of the crucified Redeemr more
than ever. What a blessed and
cherished Lenten season this will
be if we prayerfully study once
more the praying Savior in Gethse
mene, the suffering Savior on Gab
batha, the dying Savior on Golga
tha!
Hope Lutheran heart&ily welcom
es all to attend all of its services
during this sacred season. Sunday
services begin at 11 o’clock; mid
week services on Wednesday even
ing at 8 o’clock. Special Lenten
music will be furnished by Hope
Choir.

REV. C. P. RAINES Pastor
MARIE HUDGENS. ’ Reporter
Come out and let us begin the
day with Sunday school. Our fine
staff of teachers are ready to give
your children the best they have
to encourage them to become fol
lowers of Christ. See that they
come to Sunday School every Sun
day. Mrs. Elsie Lewis Supt.
The Morning services opened on
the hour at 11 a- m. with everyone
ready to give you their best in ser
vices. Our Pastor, Rev. C. P.
Raines, was at his best. He gave us
a very encouraging msseage from
God. His theme was "Reward for
Weeping.’’ I am sure everyone en
joyed this great message from
God. He emphasized the fact that
we all are made to weep if we
have false friends among us to
dig pitfalls for us, but you can
turn to God. He is an everlasting
friend. Paul and Silas might have
grumbled because of the predica
ment in which they found them
selves. Instead they prayed and
sang God’s praises and something
happened -—an earthquake caused
the prison doors to open and the
fetters to fall from their feet. If
you are frustrated and bound, why
not try the way of Paul and Silas ?
Prayer will bring victory of soul
to all who really pray. God leads
and when we follow, we move out
of the ruts and speed down the
highway of God’s plan for our liv
es.
On next Sunday morning our
Pastor’s theme will be “Our Relig
ion.” Come out and hear him.

THE GOOD SHEPHERD
LESSCN TEXT—John 10:7-18.
MEMORY SELECTION—I am the good
shepherd: the good shepherd giveth hU
life for the sheep.—John 10:11.
An open door! How inviting! Jesus
had just been talking to the man
once blind (John 9) who had seen
the temple door closed against him.
It shut him out from all the sacred
traditions of his people, but it turned
him to Jesus, who presents himself
in our lesson as "the door of the
sheep.”
I. The Door of the Sheep (w. 7
10).
The preceding verses of chapter
10 are important, for they identify
Jesus as the true Shepherd. He
speaks of his people as,his sheep.
Flocks were sometimes kept in
the field at night, as was the case
on the night when Jesus was born
in Bethlehem. But ordinarily they
were brought into a sheepfold,
where many flocks gathered for pro
tection. • A shepherd was on guard at
the door. Thieves would climb the
wall to steal sheep, but the true shep
herds, when they came in the morn
ing to lead forth their flocks, en
tered by the door. They called out
their own flock by name.
It is said that only sick sheep will
follow a stranger, which may ex
plain why so many false isms of our
day appeal to the sick and lead them
away from the Good Shepherd.
Do you know his blessed voice?
Have you responded to his call?
Will you follow him? Decide now.
Consider the beautiful figure of the
shepherd as the door of the sheep
fold. When the sheep enter the fold
to rest, he is the door. When they
are ready to go out to feed in green
pastures again, he is the door.
Note that they go in and out. Be
longing to Christ is not bondage.
If any man enter in by Christ, the
Door, he is free to go-in and out,
to find pasture, to live for and to
l serve him.
"The Door”—what a striking fig
ure! It is a means of entry, the
only way in. Every door has two
I sides and the side we are on de
termines whether we are inside or
outside—saved or lost Children oft
en sing:
•“One Door and only one.
And yet its sides are two—
Inside and outside;
On which side are you?”
Then repeating the two first lines
comes the direct testimony and
question,
"I am on the inside;
On which side are you?”
II. The Keeper of the Sheep (vv.
11-13).
We think of sheep as peacefully
grazing on the hillside—an idyllic
picture in the summer sunshine. But
there were dangers to meet. It is
so with Christ’s sheep too. and then
he is there to keep them. The wolves
come out as the shadows gather.
They come to kill and to scatter.
Where then is the shepherd? If he
is only a hireling, serving for what
may ‘‘be in it” for him. he will flee.
How perfectly this pictures relig
ious leaders, who. in spite of their
swelling words and ingratiating
manners, desert the flock in the hour
of adversity. F.air-weather friends
are they, who disappear when dark
ness and danger appear.
In the darkest hour Jesus is near
est at hand. He never fails. He
has no fear, for has he not tasted
the bitter death of Cavalry’s tree
for you and me? He is the Good
Shepherd. He gave his life for the
sheep. Those who have put their
trust in him shall never be put to
shame.
III. The Saviour of the Sheep (w.
14-18).
He laid down his life for the sheep.
Ah, yes, it is all too true that evil
men laid wicked hands on him and
crucified him. Their guilt is awfuL
But it is clear from Scripture that
until the hour had come for Jesus
to be made sin for the redemption
of man, they could not touch him
(see Luke 4:29, 30; John 8:59>.
When the time came, Christ laid
down his life in accord with "the de
terminate counsel and foreknowl
edge of God” (Acts 2:23). He died
for us, not as a martyr to a cause,
or the victim of an accident or mis
carriage of justice, but willingly,
and for the glory of God.
Yes, he died for us, but he also
died for every lost soul who will
hear his voice. There are “other
sheep" about whom the Lord is deep-’
ly concerned. Are we?
He “must bring” them—but re
member, God works through yielded
believers—through men and women.
We ought to be eager instruments in
his hands to reach these other
sheep, whatever their race, creed,
or condition.
Do not miss the note of unity In
verse 16. "There shall be one fold.”
Sometimes one wonders as Chris
tians fight one another how they will
ever be brought into the unity of one
fold. Only the Lord can do it—he
' “must bring” us together—but let
us not contribute one iota to the con
fusion and division which must to
grieve his Father-heart.
