Sugar on mackerel, or salt in tea, J
hro mistakes which the palate re
sents. Sugar and salt are not equiva- I
lents, even though some few millions
of Christians are trying to substitute j
eweetness for saltiness.
Christ never sent His disciples into!
the world to be sugar. They are not
meant to please palaies, but to save
lives. And that is the business of
salt: it bites but it preserves.
Daring to be different—courage to ;
be true to one's Christian personality
—ls a sign of saintliness. Believers i
with tang to them, individualities
who care not a whistle about pleas
ing old Madame Grundy, but are in- I
tensely eager to be acceptable to
Jesus Christ, are the real hope of hu- |
man society. Their business is to be
the salt of the earth. Whatever they :
touch, they help.
Salt—Christian salt costs. It,
represents the high price of living
the highest life. Jesus did not make
it too easy for persons to follow Him: !
He insisted that they count the cost. 1
To become as salt for this decaying
old earth is more expensive than tak
ing the highest degrees in a t'rater.-
nal order or finding the loftiest place
in society. For it costs in life, :n
service, in sacrifice, in heart's blood.
Only those persons become salty
feaints who take up a cross, lift up a
cross and are lifted up on a cross.
\ Cold Douche For tho Crowd
Crowds were still lionizing Jesus.
He was the sensation of the hour
over in novelty-loving Peri'a. He
was the vogue and wherever He went
a multitude attended Him. But Jesus
knew what was in man, and never
suffered any illusions concerning
popular favor.
Therefore He feared not To be "im
politic," "indiscreet" and to tell the
wholesome truth as well as that
which tickled ears. Turning to the
mob, on the occasion treated in this
lesson, He said, in effect: "You fo].
low me now. But you cannot truly
l»e my disciples unless you put me
first in your lives. My claim must
take the precedence of all family ties,
all business considerations, all politi
cal allegiance."
What a douche of cold water for
these folk who wanted to be on the
"popular" side. They were follow
ing the line of least resistance, and

being carried forward by the current. I

Jto let well enough alone, must in- j

'He wants only those who wll prefer
Him above all else; He will not be j

itrue of Jesus Christ. He will not be j
lord of any life that will not let Him I

Idltlonal surrender.

! an eclectic disciple and a follower of
Jesus too. There is a divine egotism
about Christ. His claims are un
|ab .shedly absolute. His place in life
iis first—before the place of father.
I mother, wife; children, brothers or
j sisters. Even life itself is not to be
considered alongside of loyalty to
Jesus.
The Sign of the Cross
Any student of history must be
j thrilled at the vision of the eminent
place which the emblem of death and
1 degradation and sacrifice, the cross
tof Christ, has held in human affairs
for nearly two thousand years. Hun
jdreds of millions of people scat
: tered all over the earth, offer it su
i preme allegiance. It holds higher
place and authority than any national
! emblem. Of old the Japanese Roman
I Catholic converts died rather than
. trample on the cross. Within our
[own memory native converts in Korea
and China have accepted imprison
ment and death in preference to dis
} loyalty to the cross. The Turkish Em
pire is red with the blood of modern
j martyrs. The passion for the cross,
| which has been the comfort of lonely
:and obscure Christians, and the in
spiration of great armies, is a theme
| for song and story.
As laid down by Jesus, though, in
; the present lesson, the cross was a
; symbol of subjection, sacrifice and
(service. It meant willingness to un
j dergo suffering for the sake of the
! Xame. It meant the acceptance of
j shame. It meant a burden of ignom
iny to be borne. As the convict car
i ries his own cross to the place of
: execution, even as Jesus later did
j Himself, so His disciples were to bear
| before all men the odium of being
! Christ's friends. For long years after
i these words were spoken, it was
I a cause of reproach to be a Chris
tian.
; "Count well this cost," said Christ,
i One of the most praiseworthy aspects
lof the "Billy" Sunday evangelistic
j campaigns is his insistence that con
verts shall pay the price In restitu
tion for past evil and in holy living
for the future. He does not sweep
men and women into the church on a
flood of emotion and hysteria. Jesus
cited the illustrations of a man build
' ing a tower, or of a king going forth
ito battle, but first sitting down to
[estimate the cost. Look well to the
!' meaning of disciplcship: It costs a
life. There is a cross for every con
vert.
The Clear Break
| Moody used to say that it was only
I the half-way Christians who are mis
j ••ruble. There fcs no joy in trying to
serve both God anil the world. After
I all, according lo the clear words of
Jesus, that is no loyalty to Him at
: all. He demands a complete s«r
, render of all: if He chooses to remit
[to us more than ever we had from
llie world, that is of His royal bounty.
First of all there must be entiro re
nunciation. A clear break with the
past, an utter cutting off of old al
legiances, is His unequivocal require
ment. Before a man can be accepted
into citizenship In one country, he
must in definite terms renounce his
old citizenship and loyalty. Xo king
so exacting as Christ in this.
In trying to make the Christian
life seem easy we have not followed
the example of Christ. He declares
that it needs all a person is or has
to enter His discipleship. Only sur
rendered lives have the savour of
salt. God cannqt do anything with
lives that are not completely made
over to Him. Ills program for puri
fying and preserving human society
is tn leaven it with the salt of Chris
tians before they are anything else.
With that kind of life as His in
strument, nothing -is too hard for
Christ. But with saltless church
members, He can do nothing. If an
observer cannot tell any difference
between the Christians and non-
Christians in a community, then
there is sore need of salt In that vi
cinity. For salt makes itself felt:
it even hurts: but it saves.
