A Pniir.si e named Nicodemus, a ruler of
the J visited Jesus, saying to Him,
l: l! i we know that Thou art a teach
t i ...n-.e from Cod; for no man can do
li.u.- m.racles that Thou doest, except
i I-,, i Iw eirh him "
Jesus told Nicodemus that except a man
be born again he cannot see the king
dom of God. and as Nicodemus did not
understand, Jesus went to some pains to
explain that one must be born again
spiritually.
After this Jesus and His disciples went
into the land of Judaea; and Jesus bap
tized. John the Baptist - was also near
there and he also was baptizing, for
John was not yet cast into prison, but
was preaching.
Some of John's disciples questioned him
about Jesus and His baptism of many.
John answered that he had never said
he was the Christ, but that he was sent
before Him.

active with the dust cloth, so the
fine dust of materialism settles on
our souls, dulls their luster, and if
not removed, forms a hard crust.
That hard crust is usually broken
up by some personal problem, dif
ficulty, calamity, which breaks
through earthly things, and plows
often down deep into our very

By NEWMAN CAMPBELL
(The International Uniform
Leason on the above topic for
Jan. 19 us John 3, the Memory
Verse being Psalm 135:3, "Praise
ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good.'
THERE WAS a man of the
i narisees. named Nicodemus, a
ruler of the Jews. The same came
to Jesus by night, and said unto
Him, Rabbi, we know that Thou
art a teacher come from God: for
no man can do these miracles
that Thou doest, except God be
with Him."
This man Nicodemus, who be
longed to the powerful Sanhedrin,
ruling- body of the Jews, came to
Jesus at nifrht because he knew
of the Master and the miracles
He performed, and had come to
believe that He had come direct
from God. He came at night, why
we do not know. Possibly be
cause he thought he could have a
quiet, undisturbed tauc with Jesus,
and also quite as possibly because
he did not want his friends and
associates to know that he sought
this interview because he was not
satisfied with the views he had
been taught and had heretofore
believed, but sought more spir
itual guidance.
He addressed Jesus as "Rabbi,"
a term of respect, meaning great
or master. It shows what an Im
pression this Man of Galilee had
made upon him.
Must Be Bom Again
"Jesus answered and said unto
him, Verily, verily, I say unto
thee, Except one be born again,
he cannot see the kingdom of
God."
Nicodemus was astonished at
this language. How could a grown
man be born again ? Could he en
ter his mother's womb and be
born again as if he was an in
fant? Jesus explained that it was a
spiritual birth. If he accepted the
faith that Jesus taught he surely
would have a re-birth, be a new
man, not in his body, but In his
mind, his spirit,, his whole outlook
on this life and the life to come.
"That which is born of the flesh
is flesh," Jesus told him, "and
that which is born of the spirit Li
spirit.
"Marvel not that I said unto
lhe, Y-e must be born again.
"The wind bloweth where It
listeth, and thou hearest the
sound thereof, but canst not tell
whence it cometh, and whither It
Roeth; so Is every one that Is
born of the spirit."
When Nicodemus answered,
"How can these things be?"
Jesus' answer was, "Art thou a
master of Israel, and knowest not
these things? Verily, verily, I say
unto thee, We speak that we do
know, and testify that we have
seen; and ye receive not our wit
ness. "If I have told you earthly
things, and ye believe not, how
shall ye believe, if I tell you of
heavenly things?"
Jesus then referred Nicodemus
to the Old Testament story of
Moses lifting up the serpent in
the wilderness, that those bitten
by serpents should be healed.
"Even so must the Son of man
be lifted up."
"For God so loved the world,
that He gave His only begotten
Son, that whosoever believeth in
Him should not perish, but have
everlasting life.
"For God sent not His Son Into
the world to condemn the world;
but that the world through Him
might be saved."
Jesus Goes to Judea
After these things Jesus and
His disciples went to Judea and
tarried there, and Jesus baptized
many. We are not told If Nico
demus believed and accepted
Jesus' gospel, or anything more
about him.
Near Judea John the Baptist
also was baptizing, for John was
not yet cast into prison. Now
some of John's disciples came to
him and told him that "he that
was with thee beyond Jordan, to
whom thou bearest witness, be
hold, the same baptizeth, and all
men come to Him."
This was the crucial test for
John. His disciples evidently were
jealous that this man Jesus was
baptizing more men than John.
John answered them, "A man can
receive nothing, except it be given
him from heaven. Ye yourselves
bear me witness, that I said, I
am not the Christ, but that I am
sent before Him."
Further John said, "He that
cometh from above is above all:
he that is of the earth Is earthly,
and jpeaketh of the earth: he
that cometh from heaven is above
all."
."The Father loveth the Son.
and hath given all things Into His
hand. He that believeth on the Son
hath everlasting life; and he that
believeth not on the Son shall not
see life."
Thus did John shew What man.
ner of man he was, and testified
to his faith in the Master.
Library Buildings In N. C.
Library buildings have become
overcrowded and outmoded during
recent years when few public
buildings were erected. The small
er towns as well as the large cities
are hopefully waiting for more ade
quate quarters, for an attractive,
well planned, centrally located lib
rary building is an asset to a com
munity. Scotland County citizens, realis
ing the importance of a well plan
ned and inviting library building
as a living memorial to those men
and women who made the supreme
sacrifice in World War II. have
raised $50,000 for a library build
ing. The Burton Craige family of
Winston-Salem have given $75,000
and the home place in Salisbury to
the Rowan Public Library for a
memorial to Mr. Craige.
Miss Elizabeth Davis of Farm
ville has given money for a public
library. Her sisters and brothers
ities usually reach out for God.
Their hearts are sore; their spirits
bleeding; their feelings are very
sensitive. They shrink from hav
ing their troubles held up for pub
lic view.
At times such as this they need
the refreshing observation written
by David as an old man, near the
end of the road, with much worry
and trouble behind him, "Be Still.
And Know That I Am God '.
So much of this can be avoided
if we keep our hearts and lives
clean by constant communion with
our Lord.
ihey that feared the Lord,
spake often one to another: and the
Lord hearkened and heard it
It came to pass while they com
muned together and reasoned, Je
sus Himself drew near and went
with them."
The Lord is near us. If we accept
His companionship daily, our
hearts and minds can be kept pure
and free from the earth's slow
stain.
