MICAH’S HOPE OF GOD’S
SALVATION
International Sunday School Les-
son for May 28, 1950
MEMORY SELECTION: “Who is
a God like unto thee, that par-
doneth iniquity ... ? he re-
tained not his anger for ever,
because he delighteth in loving
kindness.”-~Micah 7: 18.
Lesson Text: Micah 4: 1-5; 5: 2-4;
7: 18-20.
°Z EN
Micah was a peasant, living
about twenty miles west of Jeru-
salem. He wrote in the last de-
cades of the eighth century B. C.
Like Amos and Hosea he denounc-
ed the hypocrisy and social evils
of his day.
We know very little, of Micah’s
life and surroundings beyond what
we have in his book. Living in a
small town, named'Moreshethgath,
Micah was afforded excellent ad-
vantages in the making of a pro-
phet: Direct contact with nature,
the quietness and remoteness which
made possible deep stuay; the op-
portunity of viewing public affairs
from a distance and thus securing
a correct estimate and a fuller ap-
preciation of the problems of the
downtrodden and oppressed.
While Micah was not a prophet
in a professional sense, he was
confident that his call came direct
from God, for he declared, “I am
full of power by the Spirit of Je-
hovah, and of judgment, and of
might, to declare unto Jacob his
transgression and to Israel his
sin.”
His book seems to be a collec-
tion of notes taken from his public
prophecies, Micah probably realiz-
ed the fact that the people, so deep
in sin and indifferent to his mes-
sages would not profit from them,
so he wrote down some of the
prophecies concerning the Jews in
the hope that he would reach a
wider circle of people at that time
and in the future.
The Book denounces Israel, holds
a promise to the faithful remnant,
predicts the captivities, announces
the birthplace of our Lord. It con-
demns the oppressors of the poor,
the deceitfulness of the poor, the
rulers who were corrupt and venal,
the judges who made justice a
sham and a shame and such sim-
ilar evils.
Dr. H. C. Moore (declares Mi-
cah’s message for his time, which
is a masterly message for the
m« of our time, to be seven-fold
•“jL Right is always right. 2. The
poor must have a chance. 3. Pros-
perity is based on morality. 4. Con-
fidence is won by righteousness. 5.
Rise after every fall. 6. Life is an
■oyen book before God. 7. The Gold-
yea Age is ahead.”
Even laa 3ais day, more than two
thousand years ago, Micah saw
visions ©f the perfect day, when
war should be no more, when the
peoples of the earth would live in
brotherly love and the Lord would
reign over the new heaven and the
new earth forever and ever.
Every generation which has ev-
er lived has looked forward to a
warless world, but, so far, every
generation has looked in vain. A
reliable historian has declared that
there have been only 327 years
of peace during four thousand
years of recorded history. And yet
man always dreams of the day
when the peoples of the earth
can beat “their swords into plow-
shares, and their spears into prun-
ing-hooks” for nations will no
longer lift up a sword against an-
other nation for they do not de-
sire to learn of war any more.
How can such a day become pos-
sible—how can peace become en-
during? When men—all men—ac-
cept the teachings of Micah, as
outlined in the seven points above
and put into practice the teachings
of Christ as expounded in the Ser-
mon on the Mount, especially with
regards to the Golden Rule.
Selfishness, individual and na-
tional, is the primary cause of
misunderstandings and wars. The
desire to get for one’s self or one s
country that which rightly belongs
to another Is the underlying mis-
chief-maker. When men and na-
tions reach the place where they
are willing to do unto others as
they would that others should do
unto them then peace will become
possible in this old world.
