JUi 1 f HE PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL PAGE TWO Thursday, October 6, 1949 The Moral Basis for True Worship Lesson for October 9; Isaiah 1:11 18; Jeremiah 7:3-7 Memory Selection'. Isaiah 1:16-17 PHE WHOLE OF LIFE proceeds upon symbolism. Language and mathematics and religion all use symbols. Words are the signs of thought, figures the signs of num bers, and form and ceremonies the means of worship. But when a symbol conveys no meaning to the man who cannot read, to the man who cannot add two and two, and to the man who does not know the meaning of a religious symbol, symbolism is worthless. Isaiah makes it plain that God will abominate rites and ceremon ies when they are nothing but a meaningless performance. Men must cleanse themselves and put away the evil of their doings when they come into the Lord's courts to worship. That they can do this is indicated in Isaiah 1: 18. Sins like scarlet can be washed away when men truly call upon God. Jeremiah also urges the people to amend their evil ways and so come before God that he will look with favor upon' them and enable : them to remain in the land which ; he had given unto their fathers. Alas! they would not heed, and soon the nation fell into ruin the people were carried into exile and the land laid waste. So may we beware of mere lip service and escape formalism, using the ritual of our worship, whether simple or elaborate, as the means of expressing thanks ' giving, adoration, praise, and the i sense of need in the presence of ithe Heavenly Father.
