Glimpses of the Religious WorldRev. L. E. Kilpatrick, D. D.1031 E. Glenrosa AvenuePhoenix, Arizona 85014THE "FORGIVING" PUBLICIt is reported that the man who acknowledged blamefor the rigged TV quiz shows of the '50s, when one favored"contestant" was given the right answer to the quizquestion beforehand, after an uphill struggle is back top levelagain with his own TV network production, his name, JackBarry. He says that some members of the press were a littlevindictive when he reappeared on TV, but that there wereno bad letters from the public. His explanation: The publichad forgotten the scandal.I don't recall ever having watched one of his farces ofthe '50s, and don't intend to look up his new bit — but theman has at least demonstrated what forgiveness is not.Forgiveness is not mere acknowledgment of blame, thenquietly plodding back up the ladder in the "straight andnarrow'' till people forget. God says, "I will remember theirsin no more (Jer. 31:34)," but I doubt if this means thatGod ceases to be aware that our sins existed. When we areforgiven we do not cease to remember that they existed.Forgiveness means full awareness that our sins were oncewritten against us, but that full satisfaction has been madefor them in the death of Jesus Christ. We are forgiven. So wecan look anyone full in the face who knows of our sins in thepast, and we can stand clean and free and unashamed.INDECISION OF THE REFORMED CHURCHES OFTHE NETHERLANDSThe RES News Exchange reports some of thediscussion surrounding the teaching of Professor Kuitert inthe Free University of Amsterdam, that the early chapters ofGenesis should not be understood as historical. ProfessorRidderbos is quoted as agreeing that the most recent Synod,while declaring "the views of Prof. Kuitert not to be inagreement with the previous Synod,'' yet did not rescind theacts of the previous Synod in regard to the Genesis question.Ridderbos denies that Synod is approving "a latitude ofteaching at this point,'' but insists that it is merely not readyat this point to proceed with discipline. (It seems obviousfrom quotations from the remarks of others, that manyregard the contradictory actions of Synod to be vacillating,and feel that a definite answer by Synod is overdue. L.K.)AMISH PERSECUTION IN WISCONSIN TO ENDThe Wisconsin Supreme Court has ruled six to onethat Amish teenagers may not be forced to attend highschool. Inasmuch as these Amish refuse to go to law theRev. William C. Lindholm of Livonia, Michigan was upsetover their repeated arrests, and formed a committee to aidthem. After four years and numerous cases being taken tocourt, the Supreme Court ruled that compulsory education4laws, as applied to the Amish, are unconstitutional. AttorneyWilliam B. Ball of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania was theattorney pleading for the Amish, and witnesses of ability,including a Temple University professor, testified.POLLUTIONTwo articles in the most recent Covenanter Witnessrelate this problem definitely to man's mind and spirit, onean article by the Rev. Joseph Caskey and the other an itemon the back page giving the "statement of the President'' (ofthe United States) regarding his rejection of the recendypublished report of the National Commission on Obscenityand Pornography. He speaks of the "pollution of ourculture, . . of our civilization" by smut and filth as a matteras serious for American people "as the pollution of ouronce-pure air and water,'' and we know this is serious.We look to scientists as able to hold out some hope ofprogress in control of pollution, and a chemical engineer,William Yonkman, writing in the Banner, speaks of' 'wordpollution"as being contributor toward our problems in thesocial and nature fields. "For instance, there have beensubtle changes in the meaning of some common words —Liberalism, with its original concept of tolerance andgenerosity, now often means a tolerance of almost anythingwithout restriction and allows for extreme permissiveness. Inpolitics, the generosity concept often stretches toprodigality, and the original concept of dissent, the right todisagree, has now been expanded to include demonstrationsand interferences which curb the right of others to carry ontheir lawful pursuits. . . ."As a final example, another deceiver might bementioned — a widely publicized science which is in reality apseudo-science, a hybrid of true science that is leavened witha generous measure of unprovable philosophicalspeculations. Modern man presents this false science as a socalled'second system of truth' and attempts to use it as ayardstick in evaluating the truth of God's Word. Thedistorting and denying of the Word is often called 'reinterpretationin the light of the findings of modern science.' "IN HIS PRESENCETo serve rightly, I must spend time in the sanctuary ofHis presence, and I must be there because He attracts methere — because His presence is better even than His service.And I must know that He delights in Mary when shesat at His feet and in John when he reclined on His breast atsupper. I must know that I am in His favor; and then will Iserve with a glowing heart and keep myself for Him.—Selected i
