Two weeks ago. we considered the possibilities and . responsibilities or the Christian family. Even in the home it makes a. big differ- gnce when the children rise to young manhood and womanhood. and bring into the family the ideas and impulses .of the brave new world into which they have entered. It calls for careful ad- justment to give youth's ideals and energies the scope which they require, and at the same time to restrain and direct them with wis- dom which only age can com- mand. Equally vital is the need in the Church to give young peo- ple their place and part. and at me some time to enrich them with the truths and priv egos which are the Church's her tage from the past.

Anyone who has had contact with the youth of the new Christ- ian churches of the Orient is im- pressed with their independence of spirit and iorward look. At the recent Conference in Bangkok, the report of the youth delegation was highly significant. and the follow- mg is their conception of their place in the Church:

"We represent the youth of nine countries in East Asia, and greatly i'95:l'el the absence of the Chinese delegate. As we have taken part lll this Conference. we have be- come increasingly aware of our kinship with one anothbr both in nur aspirations and in the prob- lrms confronting us; of the reality oi the world-wide Church; of the church set over against the world in every country; and we have become conscious that youth have a special place in the whole evan- gelistic task of the Church .. .

”Youth is that age in the life of man when physical vigor. enthus- iasm and zest are at their height. and when mind and spirit are not yet pre-occupied with affairs and institutions. Youth carries with it the driving force behind the social upheavals and changes in all ages . . . We cannot but feel the necessity for the .Church to utilize to the full the character- istic readiness for commitment of youth."

There is much more to the same effect in their report. And it stress- es certain facts which the church and world ignore at their peril.

Youth has awakened to their power. it was the youth of the tree nations which has just saved the world from enslavement on the battle-fields of the world. They are now demanding a voice in the affairs of the nations which sent them into war. The self-sacrifice of our soldiers amazed mankind; young people are ready for the same self-forgetful devotion in the cause of peace. They say frank- ly that as totalitarian countries exploit the resources of youth. so the church should bring their latent powers into action for the tasks before her.

Whenever the church calls her children to worth-while causes.

they respo d. The students of a certain theological college in Can- ada were offered work this sum-

and Life

met on a new Canadian enterprise. The wages were such that the summer's work would have financ- ed the remainder of their college course. But if they had accepted the church's mission fields would

have been left vacant. Every man Mil

of them turned away from the financial reward to carry the Gos- pel to the outposts of the church in their far-flung province. That spirit possesses Christian young people in Orient and Occldent alike. They regard not the claims of self when Christ calls: "Follow me."

The cause of evangelism holds the hearts of these young people. They say that they have a special place in the evangelistic task of the church. A visit to the church's colleges in Canada impresses one with the new emphasis students are laying on the central truths of our falth- the doctrines of grace by which salvation is offered to all. It is an inspiration to meet highly trained young people who count not the cost when offered the privilege of bringing Christ to the lost around them. The same is true in other lands. I quote the following from the director of the youth department of the World Council of Churches: "We heard of an entirely spontaneous move- ment among Christlan youth in Assam. where so many were after- ing for voluntary evangelistic ser- vice that not enough places could be found for them in go.” Work of this character calls for self- commltment to Christ and de- pendence on His Spirit and def- lniteness of purpose which put the whole life at His disposal, and these people find in it the joy of salvation.

Young people who concentrate thus on the realities of grace, have little respect for the divi- sions between the churches. One group said with fine reserve: "Young people are not always as conscious of the differences be- tween denominations as their eld- ers. They are perhaps more con- scious of the obstacle that the di- vision of the churches presents to effective evangelism."

The young leaders from South India were more outspoken at Am- sterdam. They said: ”You are divorcing one another; we are getting married. We do not ask for the reasons which are keeping us apart." They had small respect for those reasons -if such they can be called.

I Youth in the eastignores rac- ial differences when Christ pos- esses them. It was young people out of nine nations. some of whom were at war, who said: ”We have become increasingly aware of our kinship." They also insist that the supreme worth of persons to God. the scriptural teachings on jus- tice and the rights of men. and the law of love which brought the Son of God to earth and sent Him to the cross fiiust be applied to all the relationships of life-social economic. national and interna- tional. They meet communism and secularism both with Christ's message of salvation for the whole of life available to all men every- where.
