fHE PLATTSMOUTH. NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAf. PAGE TWO Section B Thursday, May 24, 1931 False Gods. Lesson for Sunday, May 27. "TIT HAT HARMONY is there be- tween Christ and Belial . . . And what agreement has the tem ple of God with idols?" These words of St. Paul are a challenge to those who follow the false gods of our time. They apply to those who make oracles of ; the so-called intellectuals who have no use for God, and to those whose worship f skill would lead to a world full of trained hands but empty hearts They are a warning to all who would brush aside every moral scruple to attain worldly success. God has filled the .-world with good'things. The sun, the stars, the rains and the earth and its fruits are a reflection of Himself. But they are not gods. Neither are those gifts of intelligence and beau ty with which God has endowed human creatures. Eerything that comes from God should be looked upon in terms of reference to the Creator. Only in this way can men enjoy the gifts of God without letting them blot out His image from their lives. Man's spiritual life has tended to be' ha-nipered by fast-developing progress in scientific, econom ic and . social fields. Men and women are surrounded today by distractions and lures unknown to ether generations. It. this atomic age. especially, great-numbers are tempted to for get the great truth of Christian revelation: That God is. and will always be, ' the Supreme Ruler. False ido's , may . abound every where, but in God alone lies man's hope for true and abiding happi ress. OUR CHURCHES I'XIOK METHODIST CHURCH Rev. Harold V. Mitchell, Pastor Sunday 9:30 a. m..
