"I have never been able to con- ceive mankind without Christ." Thus writes Dostolevsky in his sketch for The Young Man.

The significance oi this starting assertion demands our attention. We are struck by a remarkable historical fact; past ages have wit- nessed the deeds oi many outstand- ing personsutios. But of them all, only One has survived as a. world- wide, ever-present figure. One Iwhom the world has never for- gotten. and, we might dare to 'c-lsim. cannot forget. This person is Jesus Christ.

As each year draws to a close. one thought is foremost in the minds of men of all nations and colors-Christmas. Not that all consider Christ with affection. Many hate Him. but was it not foretold of Him that He and His doctrine would split the world -into two irreconcilable camps? Those who are not with Him. are against Him. Indifferent neutral- ity in His regard is impossible.

I I I

since men first trod this globe. they have striven mightily to at-

taln their goal. Amid ages of discord and chaos. all agree on one point. viz. that the human

race has not attained that perfect age where toll and misery will cease and unlmpeachsble happi- ,ness will reign. Buried deep in mans' heart lies an ache, a void. which tortures him with its yearn- ing to be appeased.

Experience has shown that individual men cannot find with- in the narrow limlts of their own; personality. the secret which will' quench the thirst oi their rest-: less hearts. Nor have they ever found among their fellow men, the key which will unlock this priceless treasure. Indeed. many have gone to various philosophies, :of life hoping for a soiutlon.' 'some have listened to those who claim that there is no answer; that mortals are but helpless cogs in the inexorable universe; that lhapplness is a myth; cold. stolcal .dcspair is the proper attitude to this superior power.

. . .

Others have sat at the feet oi iihose who would reduce human rllfe to no other goal except to enjoy the pleasures of this 'world; to pluck the delicate rose, ,u-hile its beauty is still in the bud. for the night will soon come. ;when nothing will be left. such .1: confusion oi pleasure with happiness drives its victims to an ever-growing, frenzied search for

satisfaction whose end, too, is despair. y Such - philosophies oi life fail

to bring man to perfection be- icause they ignore his true nature and destiny. Now. Who

best the purpose. use and func- tlon of a delicate. complicated machine, but the one Who con- ceived and brought it into exist- ence? Man's Maker alone can give full answers to the nature, purpose and destiny oi this mys- terlous machine we call man- hali animal. half god torn asunder by an inner eonflct. his flesh lusting against the spirit, and the spirit against the flesh. I I I

If this conflict can be recon- ciled, li there is a road which can bring this tortured creature to ultimate peace and lay. it seems logical to knock for the answer at the door. not of man-made philosophies or at human systems oi expediency, but at the door of Him who made us and did in fact. say "Knock, and it shall be opened."

Perhaps. now we can grasp what Dostolcvsky meant. The God Who made us did not leave us an engims to ourselves. He took the trouble not only to bring us into existence but also to tell us how to live. This He did principally and perfectly by coming down into our very midst, sharing our human life. in the person of Jesus Christ.

To Christ. then, man must go if he wants real pence; Christ alone has all the answers. We go to Him as to the Master. not to pick and choose. not to take what tickles our fancy and reject what dlsplcases fickle nature. We must. accept. His total pattern for human life. isolating no part of ourselves from His thought.

a . .

Economics, politics. sociology are all necessary aspects of our life; they will become inner seeds oi decay if not in conformity

with Christ's doctrine. That is why a profound thinker llkc Pascal could assert "Without

Jesus Christ. man will necessarily be in vice and misery; with Jesus Christ man is liberated from vice and misery. In Him con- sists all our virtue and happiness. Apart from Him, there is nothing but vice, misery, error. darkness, death, despair."

Our obligations as Christians must assume a spiritual aspect. one more in conformity with the divine nature of Christ. Can wn not. for example. meditate in our hearts the debt we owe Him. re- solving a greater fidelity to His leaching? What can we do for those who know Him not? such a meditation will not only advance our own perfection, but furnish a vital contribution to world peace- that peace intended to be man's heritage not merely on one day of the year, but as a permanent pos- session.
