Voices ol God Lesson for November 14., 1948 ct Dr. Foreman X l 7HAT became of our lost VV rules'?” That is the kind of question which prophets once upon a time were expected to answer (I* Samuel 9:1-10) Some people -still ||. have this notion about prophets in the Bible, as if they had been gypsy for­ tune-tellers, tea-leaf readers or astrolo­ gers. They were nothing of the sort. It is not possible to open the Bible to the books of the prophets and read history-in-ad­ vance, finding out when the next war is coming and when the end of the world is scheduled. If we could really use the proph­ ets of the Bible in this way, then any reader of these books could write history accurately in ad- ' vance; but no one has done this yet. • * » Hired Man and Aristocrat T HE genuine prophets, whose writings make up so much of the Bible, are something far loftier than mere fortune-tellers. They are authentic voices of God- Because of the way they spoke, the timeless truth of what they said, they are God’s spokesmen to our o%vn times as well as to their own, and to all times. The Bible prophets were not , “ professionals.” They had no churches to" support them. No regular meetings were arranged for them. You never would have read in the Jerusalem Journal, If there had been such a news­ paper, that the Rev. Dr. Isaiah would preach at the temple at I I a. m. and there would be spe­ cial music. Few ever knew when or where a prophet might speak. No one knew beforehand where a prophet might come from. Amos, for example, was a hired man from a sheep-ranch. Micah was a small­ town preacher. Isaiah was a highly cultured citizen of the capital," in­ timate with all the important peo­ ple, Ezekiel was a trained priest, loving ritual and pageantry. Jere­ miah was a lonely, hunted marf, living often in jails, Daniel was a member of a king’ s council, wealthy and famous. They were all kinds of men. these prophets, but one and all, they were God’s voices, pleading, warning, teaching all who would hear. » * * .Their Times and Ours H UMAN nature is always much the same. One man. alone, or one man with another man, or a man with a woman, or a man in a crowd—In the Eighth century before Christ when Amos preached, or now in the 20th century after Christ, the same sort of situation brings out the same temptations, the same sins. The prophets often sound quite modem, but that is only because the human race is so old-fashioned. The prophets looked about them and saw a world* much like our own. They saw people spending more than they could afford; they saw wealthy wom­ en dressing in competition with one another while poorer wom- ' en starved; they saw crowds o f business men attending religions services on Sabbath mornings . and spending the rest of the Sabbath figuring out how to cheat their customers on Mon* day. The prophets lived In evil times and they brought the judgment of God to such times—then, now and always. * * * * S in s of Society TN AN American town there was a lynching one Saturday night.

The prophets never would have missed an opportunity like that. They were not afraid to speak out, even when they had the whole com­ munity against them. "* » a W hat D oes G od R equ ire? TT IS easier to say “ Don’t” than * “Do.” It: is easier to criticize than to construct. But the prophets did not stop with warnings They have given us a pattern tor living, which Micah summed up in those matchless, inspired words: “ What doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?" Everything that Is good, in public Ufe or in private, is in­ cluded in those 2a words. (Copyright by the International Council ol Religious Education on beball of 40 Protestant denominations..
