GO LD EN T E X T —W hat doth the Lord re ­ qu ire o f thee, but to do Justly, and to love m e rcy , end to w alk h um bly with thy G od? —Micah 6:8. Phone 5942 We demand human rights, social justice, and economic security. Cor­ rupt judges and bribe-taking offi­ cials must be put out of office. Land­ lords must not squeeze every penny out of their tenants; loan sharks must, be put out of business; the rich must not oppress the poor, -The Church must have ministers \yith a real message and must share in the solution of the problems of human­ ity. No, we did not copy that para­ graph out of today’s newspaper. It is the message that the prophet Mi­ cah preached more than 2,500 years ago. And what’ s more, he not only presented theories, but lie knew how to accomplish his purpose of real social justice. It is. time some of those who talk about this subject got back to the Bible and really learned how it can be done. I. ‘ Social Injustice (3:1-10). The inhumanity of man toward man is not something that just hap­ pened. There are fundamental rea­ sons for such conditions, and they are the same in our time as in Mi- cah’ s day. The responsibility rests squarely on the failure of our' na­ tional and spiritual leaders to per- form.their God-given tasks.. I. Rulers without Judgment (3:1-4, 9-io>: The obligation of anyone who is given ,or who seeks public office, is to know judgment. This does not mean only tnat he is to have a gen­ eral knowledge of the-law and its technicalities; he is to know justice in his very heart, to love it, and to see that it is always rightly admin­ istered. The leaders of Israel had woefully failed, in fact had deliberately de­ parted from the standards of God, and Micah exposed tljem in plain, dramatic, well-spoken words. While verses 2 and 3 are not to be taken literally, they do-in striking figura­ tive speech describe just what un­ scrupulous politicians do to an un­ suspecting people. - 2. Prophets with a False Message (3:5-8). In such a day might one not ex­ pect God’s messengers to have a word of condemnation for the .lead­ ers and of comfort for the people? Not only did they keep quiet about the sin and corruption which they saw about them, but they actually, encouraged their prominent and wealthy “ church members” in their sin by saying, “ All is well.” Such religious leaders have not altogether perished from the earth. Let ministers of God be like Mi­ cah, who is described in verse 8 as a man of judgment and justice,'be­ cause he was "full of power by the Spirit of the Lord.’ ’ 1 II. Social Security (3:11, 12; 6: 6 - 8 ) . No. that idea was riot discovered by the politicians of. the 193Q’s. It has been in' the plan of God from the beginning; in fact only in Him is there any real national, personal, or social security. Micah skillfully unmasked false security and re­ vealed the way of true security. 1. False Security and pivine Judg­ ment (3:11, 12). When the heads of a nation “ judge for reward” ,and its religious leaders “ teach for hire” and its prophets “ divine for money” (v. 11), there is no use to talk piously about God being with us. The prophecy of verse 12 was ful­ filled three times—by the Chaldeans in 586 B. C., by Titus in A. D. 7.0, and under Hadrian in A. D. 135. God always keeps His promises, even if the promise be a promise of judgment. 2. True Security and Divine Bless­ ing (6:6-8). God is not to be propitiated by the offerings of material things as a sacrifice or by any outward profes­ sion of piety. He looks at the heart. Verse 8 is a remarkable and beau­ tiful epitome of God’s requirement of man, namely, justice, kindness, and humility; but note that this is the requirement -of the law, and one which no man can possibly ful­ fill apart from Christ, It is evi­ dent folly for men to quote this verse as did the agnostic Thomas Hux­ ley and others, to justify themselves foT not responding to the claims of the gospel of Christ, Only Christ can make any man capable of true justice, constant kindness, and gen­ uine humility. Only thus can we meet the demands of the law of God. Real social justice and security will come only as there is a recog­ nition of Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord by the leaders, by the prophets and by the people. Self Abnegation After you have been kind, after Jove has stolen forth into the world and done its beautiful work, go back into the shade again and say noth ing about it. Love hides even from itself. Love waives even self-satis­ faction.—-Henry Drummond. REPORT OF SALK Monday, September 11, 1939 Springfield Live Stock Sales Co.
