LESSON FOR FEBRUARY 4
JESUS THE SAVIOR OF THE
WORLD.
I,ESSON TEXT—JoTin 1:1-18.
J UOLDKN TEXT-For Qod so loved the
world, that he Kave Ma only begotten eon.
I that whosoever beurveth In him. should
not perish, but have everlasting life John
1:16.
, I
Tbis most famous Interview In his
tory occurred probably In some room
lu Jerusalem where Jesus WHS a guest,
a room reached by an outer stairway
no that he could Vecelve visitors pri
vately. \ / .
| I. The Teacher of the Jews (vv. 1,
2). Nlcodemus was a member of the
sunhedrln (Ch. 7 :50). lie belonged to
the Pharisees who were much devoted
, to the scriptures, and In whose hand
the political affairs were largely
j placed by the Romans. There are sev
j eral reasons why Nlcodemus came to
Jesus by night. Prudence dictated se
| crecy, but that he came at all was en
| couraging. He was more apt to And
Jesus at home In the evening. He had
much that he wished to learn, and
needed a quiet hour, removed from
A the crowd. The things that Jesus had
done and taught made Nlcodemus
think that Jesus might be the Mes
| slah. Nlcodemus wanted to know
J how to be blessed or happy.
! 11. A Teacher From Qod (vv. 3-8).
A greut majority of the disciples of
i Jesus came from the common people
(I Cor. 1:11 Id) yet for "nil classes he
had the same message, "Ye must be
born again." The answer of Jesus
was according to the condition of the
man before him, the deepest need of
n-hls- soul. - Literally, lie said. "Most as
r surcdly, except a than (anyone) fie
horn agalir (anew or from above) he
cannot enter the kingdom of heaven."
To be born anew means to be born
sgaln. It mutters not what your par
eiitage may have been. If any man
: could do without n new birth, Nlco
demus was that .man. He was mornl,
religious and sincere. The Instrument
through which this birth Is effective
lis the word of God (I Peter 1:23;
j'James 1:18; John 15:3) and the au
j thor Is the Holy Spirit (v. 5: Titus
3 :.1). Water Is a symbol of the word
(ICph. fi:2fl). Literally translated,
this passage would rend, "Except one
be born of wuter and wind." And as
wind "hyNynlversal consent refers to
I one factor In regeneration, the Spirit,
so the water manifestly refers to the
other element of regeneration, the
word." The main contention Is that
j the word Is the Instrument In the rc
it generation. Although not expressly
I mentioned here, It Is elsewhere.
| Nlcodemus was a teacher of Israel (v.
10 It. V.) and yet he did not know so
fundamental a truth as the new birth,
though the Old Testament taught It.
' 111. The Pupil'* Difficulty (vv. ft 13).
| The works of the flesh as contrasted
j with the fruits of the Spirit are
| brought out In the Epistles, yet, like
Nlcodemus, people are asking today.
"How can these things be?" Jesus
challenges Nlcodemus ".vlth the words.
"Art thou a teacher of Israel and un
derstandest'not these things?" What
| Jesus said to Nlcodemus (vv. 11-13)
! Is true of the scriptures now, especlal-
J l.v of the New Testament. They tes
| tlfy to the facts which Jesus knew
j and revealed, he having been In
I heaven, and cotne down from heaven
j for the purpose of making them
known. To be born Implies that It
Is the starting point of a new life, that
j we must grow as a child grows to be
a man until It reaches to "n perfect
| man unto the measure of the stature
of the fullness of Christ" (Eph. 4:13).
IV. The Lesson Illustrated (vv. 14
1 . Jesus believed In objective
I teaching, and he here refers to a
memorable event In the early history
of the Jews as Illustrating his teach
ing, The Journey through the wilder
ness to, the promised land became
weary and discouraging, and the Is
raelites complained bitterly of their
hardships, complaining against Ood
and against Moses. Punishment came
In the form of fiery serpents, called
fiery from the burning, stinging sensa
•i tlQELcaused by their bite. So Intense
j was the venom of the bites that they j
became fatal In a few hours. This i
punishment made the people realize |
; the awful evil of sin. They acknowl- I
edged their sin, and pray Hi for for
giveness. Moses mafle a brazen ser
pent. and carried It through the camp
BO that all could see. and looking he- !
came an act of faith. Implying repent- i
ance and return to obedience and to
Cod. Thus our salvation is literally, j
"Look and live;" believe and have
eternal life; doubt and perish (Mark j
18:10; John 3 :36).
V. God's Greatest Gift (v. Ifl). This !
1» probably the most familiar verse |
known to the Christian world, ami j
has led more souls to salvation than
any other In the Bible. In it Is re- i
vealed the mighty Ood—"For God a 1
mighty motive—"Ood so loved;" aj
mighty scope—"Ood so loved the }
whrlda mighty sacrifice —"Ood so j
loved the world that he gnve his only |
begotten Son;" u mighty escape—j.
"should not perish;" a mighty gift— |
"eternal life." • ' ,
c This verse Is the gospel In a nut
shell : the origin and grounds of ble
salvation.

Why Rheumatism Comes
With Cold Weather!
BY VALENTINE MOTT PIERCE, M. D.
A close connection exists between
these two cold weather and rheu
matism. Prof. Alex. Haig, of London,
has the moat followers in the medical
profession in the belief that the pres
j ence in the system of uric acid, or its
salts in excess, is the real cause of rheu-1
matism. Everyone has recognized the
difference in the appearance of their j
water as soon as it gets C() | ( j ■ there is j
often a copious sediment of brrckdust.
| Heverai causes may lead up to an |
accumulation of uric acid in the system, j
which, in turn, causes rheumatism or |
gout, or creaky joints, or swollen lingers,
l or painful joints. For one reason the
skin does not throw o/f the uric acid, by
profuse sweating, wfin the hot weather,
and the kidneytfSue unable to take care
'of the double burden. Another reason '
