From our Exchanges

with contributions from Stephen A. Chase

The Holy Scriptures are able to make us "wise unto salvation" only as we receive the truths they make known into good and honest hearts. Knowledge of the Scriptures as literature may be so perfect, if it do not make them a lamp to the feet and a light to the path, they are of no more spiritual value to us than the code of Hammurabi or the Hindu Vedas.—The Examiner.

Jesus' spiritual interpretation of life actually translated into a present-day program becomes a change of emphasis. It may read: "Let your thoughts be not so much on acquisition as on stewardship; not so much on your rights as on your duties; not so much on compulsion as on kindness." It is a new standard of values, says the Sunday School Times.
