REHOBOAM: A WAN WHO MADE A FOOLISH CHOICE LISBON TEXT—IK logs U:l-B, XM7, JO. GOLDEN TEXT—A min’s pride ihsU brine him tow.—Proverbs *0:23. “He did evil because he prepared not his heart to seek the Lord’’— this Is the divine epitome of the Ufa of Rehoboam as given In H Chronicles 12:14. Life la full of, choices, and the decisions we. make determine our destiny both in this life and -in the life to come. Since the great issues of our life may hinge on the sim­ plest of choices, it is obvious that we need guidance at every point and in every moment of life. The counsel of men, the right impulses which are born of good breeding, the light of knowledge-all these may help us to make right choices. But since there is only One who has all the knowledge, who, can see the end from the beginning, who has all the power to make His decisions effective, it Is obviously folly of the highest degree to do without His holy guidance, especially ainoe God is willing to give it without money and without price even to the hum-, blest believer. Men and women, let us not follow the foolishness of Rehoboam. Let us seek first God’s kingdom and His righteousness, and then we are as­ sured that everything else shall be added unto us (Matt. 0:33).. The picture before us is astonish­ ingly up-to-date. People were cry-. ing for relief from tax burdens. One group of leaders couns<jled'1modera- tion; another group; said in effect,, tax them all you can and keep on spending. The king, who in a mon­ archy had the final decree in his power, replied to the plea of the people with the 900 B. C. equivalent of our modern slang expression, “Oh, yeah?” and the ten tribes promptly revolted. I. A Reasonable Request (vv. 1- 5). Governments exist for the people, not the people for the government. Political leaders seem to forget this axiom and begin to rule as though they need not listen to the reason­ able pleas of the people.' Tax bur­ dens rise, regimentation of the life of the nation takes place, and soon­ er or later the people rise to over­ throw the government. It happened in .Rome, it was back of the French Revolution, it brought.an uprising of the serfsof Russia, it can and will happen elsewhere if men who rule do not listen to reason. Rehoboam made at least one wise decision—to wait three days before ■speaking and to seek counsel. He needed this, for having been brought up in the palace of Solomon, without proper training for his place as king, he was quite unable to make immediate answer to their re­ quest. Incidentally, we note that much of the folly of Rehoboam is chargeable to the neglect of his fa­ ther to rear him properly. May. that ‘terrible thing never be said about you and me regarding our children, II. An Unreasonable Refusal (w . 12-16). . The picture of the two groups of advisers is a most graphic one and should afford the teacher an excel­ lent opportunity to show young peo­ ple especially, how important it is to heed the counsel of their, elders. Even so youth stands today at the fork of the road. Let us in all kind­ ness, love, and tact seek to help them choose the right way. m i The Inevitable Revolt <vv. 16, 17, 20). The people,' long submissive and apparently servile, ultimately come to the point where they think, end when they do, dictatorial rulers tumble from their self-made thrones. Would that the people of the earth realized the power Which they have and that they would use it for the glory of God. Rehoboam felt the power of the people who re­ volted, others have followed him, for it is still true in the world that the rulers "do evil” because "they prepare not their hearts to seek the Lord.” Rehoboam, who had awaited the arrival of this crucial hour in an­ ticipation of taking his place as the king of the ten tribes, was ready, and was at once chosen as the lead­ er' of those who withdrew from the rule of the house of David. Reho- boam’s sin brought this about, but it was also in the counsels of God (v. 16). As Alexander Maclaren ex­ presses it, . . the historian draws back the curtain. On earth stand the insolent king and mutinous peo­ ple, each driving at their ends, and neither free of sin and ..selfishness. A stormy sea of people, without thought of God, rages below, and above sits the Lord, working Hil great purpose by. men’s sin. That divine control does not in the least affect the freedom or the responsi­ bility of the actors, Rehoboam's disregard of the people’s terms was ‘a thing brought about of the Lord,’ but it was Rehoboam’s sin none the less.” RATES © ANDUP ThePALACE HOTEL S IX TH A T V I N E STR EETS ANTHONY USASSSU, MANAGER 1-c; ROLL* FILMS Developed and Printed 2S< 24-Hoar Sendee Give Me An Order Vincent Rigio Xeale Avenue i REPORT OF SALE I Monday, July 10, I960 ' Springfield Live Stock Sales Co, HOGS—1248 head. 180-109 lbs........................... 7.10 200-224 lbs...........................7.05 226-240 lbs_____ *______ :.6.85 250-274 l b s . _____________6.60 275 lbs. up _______ _ _ j___ 6.20 160-170 l b s . _________ ...7 .0 0 140-150 lbs____________^-_6.55 120-130 lbs........................ 6,25 to 6,30 Feeding p ig s ------------------ ^8.40 down Fat sows *_______ 4.75 to 5.05 StagB ------------- 5.10 down SHEEP & LAMBS—251 head.
