AUGUST 22. 1949 THE GUARDIAN. CHARLOTTETOWN PAGE THREE Most people are concerned about personal immortality. The averag: human beins Cannot believe that death ends all; there are processes begun here which must continue with the Spirit out of which they wrong. A young man came t0 his rpiritual adviser in deep perplex- ‘ty. His chum had just passed into :he unseen and he was full of questionings about his condition ind experiences. They had been pilS from childhood; they had ilu-ays shared each others thoughts and feelings; the aims of “on had been the interest. of the uher and the success or loss of rach the concern of both. Now 1e had gone. and his bereaved tompanlon wondered and wonder- ..1 about his condition and his faze. A similar loss gave us Tenny- It)! s "In Memoriam" and Nliltons lyvcidas." We could not complete a study l! John's first Epistle without in- paring into his ideas of “Eternal Life." He uses this phrase in ruany different connections. 1t gas been said that the adjective Eternal" refers to the quality of lie new life which comes to us tom God. Well, it. docs mean the (‘III of life that can be lived n God, but this life is timeless; 1 is lived in union with God here ind hereafter. What we call lidtll cannot touch it: as Jesus lfiltI in John 11:20. “He who lives and believes in me shall never fr» ' Blossom Sunday is a great day in the Niagara Peninsula. 'l'he lragrance and beauty of those 3lnS$0ITlS delight the hearts of all privileged to see thcm. Each nlossom has the capacity for de- vclnpmellt into fruit. but that iimsom must be fertilized or i‘. ntooms in vain. According to 1mm, there is in every person thc rnpacity for eternal life. but that opacity has to be fertilized by h: dircct act of God. As Jesus iaid in John 335-6. "Except one w born of water arid of the spirit. .10 cannot enter the Kingdom of Sod. That which ls burn of the llrsil-i is flesh. and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit." All through this first Epistle John echoes this saying of Christ's. "Everyone who docs righteousness ls begotten of God" (1 John 2:20). “Everyone who loves is begotten of God and knows God" (I John 1:71. “Behold what manner cf love the Father has given its that we should be called children pl God. And wr- src." (l John 3zll. It all means that this life. livr-d lfl union with God. is not possible apart from God. It is God's gift to men. It is life ln union with the Life-giver. How do we receive it? Paul's answer was. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved" (Acts 16.31). This is just ReligioAnd Life I I By Very Rev. George C.

Jesus‘ own words express this perfectly._“He who hears my Word and believes in Him who sent me has eternal life. and does riot come into judgment. but has PISSBd from death into life" (John 5:‘24l. ‘Here death is set °v°lfl=EBln§t Judgment: whatever the Judgment may mean to the bellfivfrl‘. it cannot mean that his Salvation will ever be called in question; when we believe in Christ as Saviour and accept Him as Lord. our destiny is settled at once and forevetl‘. Hence John echoesthe Master's saying when he writes. "We know that; wc have Passed from death unto life because we love the brethren" (1 John 3:15.) For the Present. that no in the believers soul ls hidden and 1H humiliated form, but at Christa coming it will burst forth in its full heavenlY Splendor. One au- tumn a summer resident planted a few‘ daffodil bulbs in a pocket of soil on top of a cliff in Mus- koka. They were dull and unin- i@T95l-lflB_ in appearance. The next spring mild weather set in early in April. and about the mid- dle of the month these people re- turned to their summer home. Hut that day the weather turned cold suddenly. and they went up the lake against a snapping west wind. As they drew up in the shelter of that cliff what should they’ see but a dozen daffodils waving in the breeze! Now, the daffodil life was in those dull and ivithered-looking bulbs: they could never he anything but daf- fodils: but in the bulb the glory of the flower was hidden. Then the sun in the spring‘ brought out their beauty and we saw what they really were. This is just what John says about the divine life in the souls of Christ's people. “Beloved, now are we children r1 God, and (t does not yet appear what we shall be. We know that when He shall appear we shall be like Him because we shall see Him as Ho _is." (l John 3:2.) Just put this verse berlde Jesus’ own words in John 11:25-26. “I am the Resurrection and the Life: he who believes on me. even though he die. shall live: and ev- eryone who lives and believes in me shall never die." Our around of hope for eternity is In Christ alone. He conquered death in our interests. and He said. “Because l live e also shall .-.._. _-____._ _...__,,,.._.. . _-_ . .- _ .. ..
