BY WILLIAM B. GILROY, D.D.
DECENTLY I wrote of the
U great clarity and simplicity
with which the Gospel by Luke
sets forth the New Testament
message of the Gospel of God’s
Grace, especially in the parables
recorded in Luke 15.
It is with equal simplicity and
clarity that Luke's Gospel pre-
sents the Christian way of life,
not only in man's response to
God, but in all relationships with
his ffellow men.
The greatest of all these pres-
entations. that unfortunately
many people and many pro-
fessing Christians have shame-
fully neglected, is the Parable
of the Good Samaritan (Luke
10),
But that is only one of vari-
ous equally clear presentations of
the teaching of Jesus concerning
attitude and conduct. I think
that perhaps the most distinctive
of these is in the story in Luke 7
of the supper in the home of a
Pharisee. It was there that a
woman “which was a sinner"
came and - washe
Jesus with her tears, and anoint

Him at home every day and at
The woman, whatever her ac-
tual character, had an ill reputa-
tion. It would be interesting to
know how many people * whom
the neighbors and the commu-
nity conveniently dub "sinners”
are actually either much better
than their reputation, or, like
that woman, capable of real grace
and goodness.
Be that as it may. I am con-
cerned chiefly with the Pharisee.
There is something puzzling
about him; and something that
is not puzzling at all. Why did
the Pharisee ask Jesus to his
home, yet omit the ordinary
courtesy of water for His feet
and other incidents of welcome?
Was it to Mtlsfy his curiosity,
to see what Jesus would do?
I hardly think so. 1 believe
that the Pharisee was sincere
enough in his hospitality. I give
him credit tor good character
and good intentions, but there's
nothing puzzling about what he
lacked. ,
The trouble with the Pharisee
was his attitude; and that is the*
trouble with a vast part of the
so-called Christian world, as it
has been, and as it is today.
It is here that Luke’s presen-
tation of the Christian way is so
incisive and insistent. He lays
such stress on attitude—not only
on character and conduct, but on
attitude. The priest and the
Leyite of Luke 10 may both have.,
been pi'OuslkKd''''i'mciire, accord-
ing to their lights, but so far as
they were concerned it availed
nothing for the man stricken by
the wayside. The Samaritan, de-
spised as he might have been
stress on character and conduct..
But it can be said, and it ought
to he said, that it has put alto-
gether too little stress on Chris-
tian attitude.
Character is not enough, un-
less it is established in a right
attitude of love ana understand-
ing. It was Luke's great con*
tribution to make that plain.
But plain as he made it, many
are too blind, or too much bound
by their own beliefs and preju-
dices, to understand.
