SAT., DECEMBER 20, 1980
I LOOKED AND I SAW
The Master and the Man
By Rev. C. R. Stone
It h a truth within the will of God that Jesus is
Master of matters seen and unseen in earth as in
heaven. Through His obedience to come to earth in
the flesh, God delegated Him supernatural powers to
meet our needs. It was necessary, on earious ocha
sions for the Master to demonstrate His power to
feed large companies of peoples. He saw that it was
important to feed, some unbelievers in exchange for
their belief in Him as Saviour and Master. Addi
tionally, it was necessary for Jesus to ever provide
help to those whom He knew to be His enemies. In
this light of His divine nature to minister help, His
love was revealed without beholding to any particular
group.
It should be made clear to some that it was not our
Father's wish to move evil from Jesus' effort to do
good but rather that He resist becoming a doer of evil
until His death. In ether words, Master Jesus was
predestined to be slain as the Supreme Sacrifice for
the whole world of sin. Furtheri it would appear
through the natural eyes of the foes of Jesus that He
should lose His divine effort to reconcile men to
God. The idea expressed here represents God's in
visible power to sustain Jesus amid men's spiritual
blindness to His everlasting truths.
There is a lesson of truth expressed here which
must be taught to Christians. The point is that evil is
not going to remove from the presence of good. God
did not remove evil from Jesus' path of righteousness
and does not plan to do it for the easy way out on
behalf of Christians. We must be found doing the
will of God amid evil as demonstrated by Jesus as the
Master. Because of this concept on divine
righteousness, we become little masters for kingdom
building.
He who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
