iTHE mm SCHOOL Lesson XIII. Second Quarter, For June 30, 1907. GENERAL TOOMB'S LETTER. (Ccn'.iuued from 1st page ) THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. tKt of tht Lton, I Cor. x, 23-33. Memory Verio, 31 Goldon Text, i Rom. xiv, 21 Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Copyright, HOT, by American Pros Aaaociatioo. The letter was written to those who were "In Christ Jesus" "waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ" (chapter I, 2, 7), and the closinj words are, "If any man !ove not the Lord J&us Christ let him be accursed; the Lord cometh" (xvl, 22). The letter opens with an assurance to the faith fulness of God, who calls unto the fel lowshlp of His Son Jesus Christ oui Lord and ends with the exhortation, "Watch ye; stand fast In the faith; quit you like men; be strong" (i, 9; xvl, 13). Some of these people had been thieves and drunkards and worse, but were now washed, sanctified, Justified and temples of the Iloly Ghost through the precious blood of Christ (vi. 0-11, l'J, 20). The epistle was written to re mind them of their former lost and i helpless condition, their redemption through a crucified and risen Christ, the resurrection glory that awaited them in the kingdom, and in view of all this to walk in love, steadfast, un movuble, always abounding in the work of the Lord (chapters xiii and XV. 58). Our lesson Is taken from the section of the epistle which concerns the be liever's attitude in reference to things offered to idols nud his conduct toward those who still worshiped idols (chap ters vlil to xi, inclusive). The believer, the child of God, given to Christ oat of the world, is still left in the world xnai inrougn imu tne world may I see and know and believe in the Lord j Jesus Christ (John xvii, 20-20). The I one great question, therefore, for the j believer is: How can my life tell most i powerfully for Christ how can the j life of Jesus be made manifest in me? j (II Cor. iv, 11.) The section of the epistle selected for our lesson is a i summary of this important matter, be- I ginning with the statement that while i It may be perfectly lawful for me to i do many thiugs it may not be expedi ent for me to do them, inasmuch w lib ei ty on my part might not help others. '. The lesson closes with the saying i that as believers we are uot to seek ; our owu profit, but the prolit of others, that they may tie saved, or, as it is set forth in the closing words of the pre- ' vlous chapter, we are so to keep un- ' der, bruise, beat black and blue our body of sin. the self, the old man in ' ns, for the gospel's sake, that we may by all means save some (is 19-27i. If ' we do otherwise we may find our lives ; disapproved at the judgment scat of Christ and see our works cast away, burned up and we ourselves saved as by fire (chapter ill, 13-15; II Cor. v, , 10). The opening verses of our lesson chapter tell us of many in Israel who having been redeemed from Egypt fail- : ed to enter the promised land because ! of unbelief and Idolatry, uot that we ' are to think of them as lost, but as cut off from present privileges here, even as in chapter xi. 30, we read of : believers at Corinth who were sick and . dying liecause of sinful lives when they ought to have been glorifyiug God. The matter of eating this or not eatiug that is comparatively a trifling '. matter, inasmuch as it is not what we eat or drink that necessarily defiles us. See .Mark vii. 18, lit. Note also Col. ii. 10. 17. The life ot a child of Cod is one of perfect free dom to enjoy the riches and fullness of his Father's home, but in such a way as to make others want to belong to the same family. Our eating mid drinking and all our conduct before men should be alter such a fashion as would lead others to want to know our Cod. Clorifying Cd means njaU Ing lliiii so glorious in the eyes of oth ers that they shall he drawn to Him and he. nine His rhildren. Take any kind of a sinner su.-h as is described In chapter vi. 9, 10, and then is not a single thiug that God asks or expects of such in the way of reform to make him a child of God. All such are dead In trespasses and sins and can no more a thing to save themselves than dead Lazarus could do to get out of tli.' t tomb, but the fame word that gave Lazarus life can and will give life to any dead sinner. "Hear and your soul shall live." "The gift of God .Is eternal life." "Look unto me and be saved." "As many as received Him to them gave He the right or power to become the sons of God" (Isa. Iv. 3; xlv, 22; Rom. vi. 23; John i. 12). The way of salvation for the sinner through Jesus Christ and His finished work Is most plain, but the great hindrance Is the selfish, self seeking, self indulgent, worldly, domineering, un-Christlike life that so mnny live who are called by His name. Temperance means self control, self raianciaUou. following Him who never pleased Himself, never sought His own will or His own glory, but came to glorify God and to seek and sare the loot When oar one ambition la to please Him. to magnify Him, to so let Him live In us that people ehall be attracted to Him because of us, then wej shaH have learned the meaning of temperance. Tula will not be accom plished bf aay amount of effort on or part or eves by striving or agoniz ing, but by so beholding Him that the flory of Hi life shall be reproduced ta oars by the same spirit who dwelt In Him (TI Cor. Hi, IS; iv. Ok See also OaL It 20; Rom. vL 11, 13. Gen. Toombs then gives his opinion hs to what steps should be taken by the State to correct these evils. To Corrw-t BviU.
