1 THE COMMUNITY CHURCH NEWS Vol. Ill Friday, May 22, 1936 A LOST SOUL Just w h a t do people m e a n when they say, A Lost Soul? A soul is difficult to localize, to interpret, to define. However, in a word, a soul is yourself, your nobler self. T h e r e fore, a lost soul would m e a n t h a t ycu have lost yourself, a n impose sibility. One shcdld never speak glibly of a lost soul, one should toe very clear in his interpretation. Last is a word used in m a n y senses, it is a word of m a n y meanings. G r a n d f a t h e r says, I have lost my glasses, the fact is t h a t they have been misplaced. We say we have lost an opportunity, r a t h e r we failed to connect. We say we have lost money, really we m e a n t h a t we h a d hoped to.possess something t h a t h a s slipped. Aigain, we declare we have lost a friend, meaning a barrier is between us. The Indian spake mere truly t h a n he thought when he exclaimed, "Me, no lost. Wigwam lost. Wigwam not here." Neither Indian or wigwam was lost, lost for either would be impossible. 'Indian b a d missed the way t h a t lead t o t h e wigwam, t h a t was the fact. The real significance of saying that one h a s lost his soul is t h a t the soul har. lost its health, its happiness, it is n o longer normal. Salvation is harmony, accord, health, happiness, contact. Damnation is spiritual sickness, unihapipineiss, a b r o k e n - c o n t a c t. Those who live for self-gratification only are spiritually ill, tb~se "Who live, feed t h e soul a n d remember their STOW, OHIO No. 21 Creator are spiritually normal. Outside influences, known a s t h e would, cannot elffect a soul. A soul is lost by its awn decision. Salvation' a n d d a m n a t i o n a r e basic facts, just a<s t r u e 'as life a n d d e a t h. Love a n d h a t e c a n n o t toe explained away, n o one invented t h e m, they have been from the. begining. Murder and 'kidnapping are i n consistent with t h e Ibest interests of h u m a n society, thousands of years have proven it sa, t h e soul t h a t disbelieves t h a t established f a c t is lost. A spiritual life, a development of one's nobler self, a forward look a n d 'preparation for a higher plane of existence is ordained Iby one's Maker, the soul t h a t reifuses this t r u t h is lost. A raice may be lost, t h a t is 'to say, some-one in t h e contest failed. Bay may be lost, t h a t is destroyed by elements, yet, another f a r m e r, by diligence, saved his hay, t h a t is, he reeoued it f r o m the destroying elements. One's h e a l t h may be lost, t h a t is to say, he h a s violated laws of n a ture a n d a break-down h a s occurred, while another, observing and safeguarding, h a s retained his health. In every case cited one is saved while t h e other is lost. Certain tribes of Israel were lost, t h a t is, they were carried into captivity by Assyria, absorbed and never returned. To 'be lost, referring to the soul, means n o contact, a stranger, u n acquainted, moving in the opposite direction. C O M E T O C H U R C H S U N D A Y - T h e Sermon will be on " T h e Ascension of O u r L o r d. "

MEN Our lesson next Sunday is an excellent example of the importance cf the proper appreciation of values assigned to the factors of life. Is it not true that many of us fail to recognize the factors at work in the direction of our life? Is it not also true that these factors must be recognized before any intelligent analysis is possible, or weights assigned to them? Christ- in sp?a!dnj cf the scribes said "The same shall receive grsatsr damnation." What idea of graduated damnation does this convey to you? He refers to the widow's two mite contribution as "more than they all." W'hait is tha true unit of value used here to appraise gifts? One interesting classification made in this lesson is the placing of the cares of this life in the same category with surfeiting and drunkenness. It is based upon an appreciation of values few ol' us possess. Temperance is the result of an understanding of the factors of life. As the proper understanding develops the temptation to over indulgence is lost in sound logical reasoning. Come and enjoy an interesting "hour among friends. Please f«l \vs:,come.
