THE DAY OF BROTHERHOOD
But Tendency of Times Is to For-j
get the Love We Owe
to Him
The Internationa! Sunday School Tjes
son Fop September 6 Is, "The Great
Commandments." Mark 12:28-44.
By William T. Elli#
Visitors at Hampden Court, Eng
land, recall the famous evergreen
maze In the gardens there. The
stranger cannot find his way out. It
is amusing to watch persona turning
this way and that, and forever go
ing over the same ground, and never
really getting anywhere. Outside of
the maze is a high platform on which
an official stands. When the visitors
tire of trying to And their own way
out of the maze, he shows them the
clear, short path out.
That is what most of us are look
ing for: a sure clue out of life's per
plexities. We want the master word
tor the mysteries which beset us.
Creeds and philosophies there are in
plenty, but they only add to tht plain
man's confession. Who will show us
the sure route out of the maze?
Few questions! are older than this,
or more natural to man. It was in
the mind of the scribe who, standing
in the background of the crowd
which surrounded Jesus in the( courts
of the Temple, on the last day of his
public teaching, noted that the Naza
rene spoke with a wisdom above that
of the doctors of the law. So he car
| ried to Jesus the races' old religious
I question, which was also his own. He
I wanted to know man's first and high-
I est and clearest duty. What is the
supreme obligation resting upon mor
tal intelligence?
A sincere seeker, he got a straight
answer, in contrast to the hypocrit
ical pettifoggers who had been try
ing to ensnare Jesus, here was a man
troubled in his own spirit who want
ed really to know. The maze of paths
and bypaths into which the Law had
been divided by the theologians per
plexed him. Religion had become a
matter of formalism and ritual with
most of the Jews of his day. Perhaps,
through the scribe, this fresh, fearless
Teacher from the North could aid him.
A Straight Path Home
And he did.
"Who goes a step to Christ, through
doubtless dim,
Christ goes a mile, through blazing
light, to him."
To that anxious Jew in the Temple
courts, the Master laid down a sim
ple. understandable and workable
law of life. It was a religious re
duced to its ultimate simplicities. A
child could comprehend it; but all of
a strong man's powers are needed to
fulfill it. The twofold answer of Je
sus, setting forth the greatest com
mandments, is portable truth, to l|e
carried away as a permanent posses
sion, by every student of this lesson.
As an introduction, though, Jesus
recited the magnificent first formula
of the Jewish faith, the Hebrew race's
bequest to the world, concerning the
unity of the Deity. To us in the year
1914 this is a commonplace phrase,
almost meaningless. But in Christ's
day a-s in Abraham's, it was the most
radical of all religious beliefs. They,
be is remembered, were environed by
the countless gods of heathendom.
Polytheism was the popular faith.
There were almost as many gods as
people. The conception that there is
but one God and that he is supreme
over all, and therefore worthy of alle
giance, was the Jews' religious gift to
mankind. We, who know the affir
mations of science concerning the
unity o/ nature, find it easy to be
lieve in the One over all; indeed, it is
difficult to believe otherwise. We have
to visualize for ourselves the Old Tes
tament background before we can
rightly understand the emphasis which
Jesus, and all of the prophets who
went before him, laid on the oneness
of God. This truth rtiust be postu
lated before anything else that Christ
says can be understood.
The Twin Duties
Four words compress the Master's
great definition of the supreme duty
of irortal: Love God; love man;
'lookup; look around; reach up; lift
up. The house of life has heaven
wars windows and manward win
dows. The two oars that propel the
boat of character —either inadequate
Without the other—are Love to God
and love to man.
The two are twins. One is incom
plete without the other. "What God
hath Joined together, let no man put ,
asunder." The danger in our day is'
8 godless conception of brotherhood: j
which will neither work nor last. In
the Master's time the danger was a
brotherless. conception of godliness,
which was disloyal both to God and
man. Each Is an essential comple
ment of the other
There is nowadays no danger that
we shall make the mistake of the
old Jews, against which Jesus taught.
This is the day of brotherhood. On
all sides voices insistently cry that
social service is the one best form
of worship of God. The Good Samar
itan has been modernized completely.
We have learned, at last, the second
commandment. This century will
not forget to show love to man; for
that principle is the touchstone of all
the thinking of our day.
Real and present and perilous,
though. Is the danger of overlooking
the first of the two supreme obliga
tions. Admiral Mahan some years
ago called attention, in a striking ad
dress. to this tendency of our day, to
leave God out of our thinking, and to
fo after a barren humanitarianism.
t is profoundly and universally true
that "without. God * * * with

words, all our social service, all our
multiform brotherism, must be vital
ized by a passion for God, If it Is to
endure, and be saved from mere for
malism. The first of all command
ments, then, is "Thou shalt love the
Lord thy God with all thy heart,
and with all thy soul, and with all thy
mind and with all thy strength."
One Effect of the War
Every person who thinks is daily
wondering about the consequences of
this world war now raging. The awe
of it at the very outset turned Chris
tians of all names and forms to their
altars in prayers. Now, through its !
tears and horror, the world is to per
ceive once more, with the quickened
spiritual perceptions of the broken
heart, that, after all and through all,
the abldity and most important realty
is—God. This universal cataclysm will
drive the world to its knees. In all the
tongues of the many warring nations
the one word spoken oftenest is "God."
He is to-day keeping a strict session i
of the school wherein he has been try
ing for centuries to teach mankind to
say aright the two master words
"God" and "brother."'
The startling novelty of the truth
which Jesus declared to be the first
commandment is tn the word "love."
Always men have feared their gods,
and sought to please them. But Je
hovah wants love as well as obedi
ence. The implication is rather stag
gering: the Lord of all cares for the
affection of the beings whom he has
created! What an exaltation ror man!
And what a revelation of the character
of the Supreme Deity! As friend loves
friend. ,as child loves parent with a
passion of outpoured affection, so, and
no otherwise. should we love the
Father in heaven, taking delight in His
presence, and living to give Him pleas
ure.
A Fnd or n I'amnlon f
"Parlor socialists," who take up the
cry for school justice and for human
brotherhood as a mere fad, as a diver
sion for lives overcome with ennui, are
the exasperation of the men and wo
men who with sacrifice are serving
the world's great cause. This Christ
gospel of brotherhood Is no mere fancy,
the vogue of a day; not a pose or a
profession, but a passion and a prac
tice It means all that Jesus declared
it to mean when he linked it up with
the Supreme Obligation: a true love for
one's fellows. The truths are insepar
able: real love for God postulates real
love for man; and such love for man is
possible only by the love of God. It Is
theocracy that makes dsmocracy pos
sible. And love for a God who is
Father of all races makes possible the
new order, love for mankind around the
whole world
Leigh Hunt's poem which Doctor
Eliot lately said is one ot the three
poems which every one should know.
Is never more pertinent than In the
study of the two great commandments:
Abou Ben Adhem <mav his tribe in
crease)
Awoke one night from a deep dream of'
peace.
And saw within the moonlight tn his
room,
Making it rich and like a lily in bloom,
An angel writing in a book of gold.
Exceeding peace had made Ben Ad
hem bold.
And to the presence in the room he
said,
"What wrltest thou?" The vision raised
its head
And with a look made all sweet ac
cord.
Answered. "Tbe names of those who
love the Lord."
"And is mine one?" said Abou. "Nay,
nt*. so,"
Replied the angel. Abou spoke more
low,
J But cheerily still, and said, "1 pray
thee, them
Write me as one that loves hV feljow
men."
The angel wrote and vanished. The
next night
It came again with a great wakening
light.
And showed the names whom love of
God had bles%£d,
And lo! I :>jn Adhem s name led all the
rest!
