G. H. H

By G. H. H.

DURING the life of Jesus, there were two factions—the Pharisees and the Sadducees, the one laying great stress on small details of daily life, the other living a life of pleasure, regardless of such petty rules. Each sect despised and hated the other. One thing they had in common; that is, a dislike for Jesus and his teachings.

So to-day it is possible that there may be factions in the matter of food and in the matter of dress, each believing its side right and the other wrong. It is very possible that both may be so intent on these questions that Christ is left out entirely.

It is possible that there may be extremists in health reform and in dress reform; and that others, seeing the fallacy of their position may turn entirely against these reforms.

The devil would be glad to have it so, for as long as people are quarreling over such matters, they are not studying Christ.
