Lesson
(By O. E. SK1.L.ERS, Director of Even-
lns Department The Moody uiDle insti
tute of Chicago.)
LESSON FOR JUNE 21
THE GREAT REFUSAL.
LESSON TEXT Mark 10:17-31.
GOLJ3EN TEXT "Ye cannot serve God
and mammon." Luke 16:13. (Read also
entire verse.)
The story of this rich young ruler
is one out of the ministry of our Lord
that has made an indelible impression
throughout every succeeding genera
tion. This is so because it Is so vital,
vibrant and vivid a revelation of our
every-day experience. The lesson nat
urally divides Itself into two sections.
Read carefully the parallel accounts;
Matt. 19:16-30 and Luke 18:18-30.
Man of Courage.
I. Ao Eager Young Man, vv. 17-22.
This man is an arresting figure. Much
may be said in his favor: (1) He was
young (Matt. 19:22); (2) He was in
earnest, "came running" (v. 17); (3)
He was educated, "a lawyer." Luke
18:18; (4) He was rich, Mark 10:22;
(5) He was loved by Jesus. Mark 10:
21. That he had lived a clean life is
revealed by the answers he made to
Jesus. Moreover he must have been
a man of some courage, belonging as
he did to the ruling class, the Pharl
sees, yet he came running into the
presence of Jesus and cast himself at
his feet. We need but to recall that
this class was at this time definitely
hostile to Christ, yet this young man
dared to sreak the conviction of his
heart in this public way by calling
Jesus, "good." We feel thathe was an I
honest pecker after life. His questlo"
reveals the unrest of the human heart, i
It matters not what men may possess
of wealth or position, these things do
not bring heart rest. Great moral
courage, noble aspirations and benevo
lence never will save nor fully satisfy
the human soul. Man does not obtain
life by doing, Gal. 2:16. Life is a gift.
Rom. 6:23. We must not misunder
stand the reply of Jesus (v. 18). Jesus
did not deny being good, John 8:46;
14:30; 8:29, but he sa w that this
young man was filled with the idea
of his own goodness. To say that Jesus
was good was practically to say he
was God, and this the young man did
not mean. Jesus sought to reveal to
him his careless use of words. Jesus
undoubtedly here lays claim to deity
and subsequently he said, (v. 21) "fol
low me," 1. e., for this man to yield
his life actually to the control of God.
Last week we were taught to "make
friends by means of the mammon of
unrighteousness; that when it shall
fall they may receive you Into the eter
nal tabernacles." This is exactly what
Christ told this young man to do,
Sell . . . give to the poor." By thus
using he would store up treasure in
heaven. That he could not stand the
test is evident from v. 22.
Peril of Riches.
II. The Matter1 Exhortation, w
23-31. As a great teacher and phllo'
opber Jesus took this occasion to point
out the peril of riches. Nearly every
man Is willing to run the risk. We
have, however, but to look about us
to see illustration after Illustration of
the truth of these word. "How hard
ly" Increased wealth, decreased piety,
"How hardly" men seek to tone down
this plfture, but have no right so to
do. The only safety 1 found In the
word of verse 27, "with God all thing
are possible." The most severe tet
possible to be given to a man' relig
ious experience is for him to he pros
pered in wealth or position. The rich
young ruler is an evidence of the fact
that such a godless life is a restless
one.
Notwithstanding hi possession, his
refinement, the privileges of his post
tlon and a life so cleanly lived as to
leave no vvflgar moral scar, yet he eX'
claims: ' What shall I do that I may
inherit eternal life?" It was easier
for the proverbial camel to have en
tered the city gate (or a literal
needle's eye as you prefer) than for
this young man to yield to God the
control of his life. Every life 1 under
control. A godless life is a self-con'
trolled life. A men came to Jesus he
saw perfectly their individual need;
their peculiar malady.
The disciple were amazed at the
master's words and thought If a rich
man cannot be saved there 1b hope
for none. Such ia not the meaning,
Thi is revealed in the reply to Peter's
question. Men are saved Irrespective
of position or of possessions for God
loves them all. Those who turn the
control of their lives over to his keep
ing, those who, no matter what their
condition or position in life, follow
him, leaving all, or bringing all as the
case may be, will have their reward
here in this life and in the world to
come, eternal life.
The one thing people most dread is
poverty, so did Jesus and he saw that
the possessions of this life so occupy
the time and attention of men as to
impoverish their souls. Wealth is a
trust. God looks upon every man,
Jecus beheld this youi:g man, endowed
with great possibilities and covets
that life for high service. Are we
more anxious to be rich than to be
good? Is it not an evidence of selfish
ness to let those come after us dis
tribute our wealth? To enoy It, gloat
over it and to use it for yourself, then
NEAR DEATH
BY SMOTHERING
Bat Husband, With Aid of Cardui,
Effects Her Deliverance.
Draper, N C Mrs. Helen Dalton, ol
this place, says: "1 suffered for years,
with pains in my left side, and would
often almost smother to death.
Medicines patched me up for awhile
but then 1 would Ret worse again. Final
ly, my husband decided he wanted me to
try Cardui, the woman's tonic, so he
bought me a bottle and 1 began using it.
It did me more good than all the medi
cines 1 had taken.
I have induced many of my friends to
try Cardui, and they all say they have
been benefited by its use. There never
has been, and never will be, a medicine
to compare with Cardui. I believe it is
a good medicine for all womanly trou
bles." For over 50 years, Cardui has been re
lieving woman's sufferings and building
weak women up to health and strength.
If you are a woman, give it a fair trial.
It should surely help you, as it has a
million others.
Get a bottle of Cardui to-day.
