By NEWMAN CAMPBELL. I CENTURIES before Jesus Christ was born, the prophet 1 Isaiah foretold His coming, and I these prophesies are the subject i of our lesson today. How could the prophet foresee so clearly that when the promised Messiah ; came He would be rejected of ' suffer and die to save His ^Ble from their sins ? God told tnis greatest of all the prophets of old. Isaiah prophesied, it is thought, between 720 and 710 B. C. in Jerusalem. We read: "He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and we hid as it were our faces from Him; He was despised, and we esteemed Him not." Except for the Apostles, the people whom He healed, and a few others, our Lord was indeed ; "despised and rejected of men," even though, as Isaiah says, those they profess to love Would we welcome with joy a Messiah such as Christ? Do we listen to those among us who are His followers in spirit and in truth, and who try to guide us into the "straight and narrow path" of righteousness? "He was oppressed, and He was Blflicted, yet He opened not His mouth; He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheen before her shearers is dumb, so He openeth not His mouth." You will remember that when Jesus was brought before Herod, his enemies, the chief priests and scribes, were vehement In their denunciations and accusations of Him. Christ, however, refused to talk. "Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him; He hath put Him to i grief; when thou shalt make His soul an offering for sin, He shall send His seed. He shall prolong His days, and the pleasure of the i MEMORY VERSE "He was wounded for our transgressions; He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace uvw upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed."?Isaiah 53.S. ! "Surely He hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet we did esteem Him stricken, smitten Of God, and afflicted. "But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastise ment of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed." "All we like sheep "have gone astray; we have turned every one his own way; and the Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all." After all the centuries have passed since those words were uttered, we of this generation are sadly, still like lost sheep that have gone astray. Christ told us to love one an other; to forgive our enemies; to do good to those who abuse us, yet the newspapers are full of stories of crimes of revenge. ' Often thus* who call themselves 1 Christians are cruel to one an other, and even many times to Lord (hall prosper in His hand." The last verse of this portion of Isaiah reads like a summary of the foregoing. "Therefore will I divide Him a portion with the great, and He shall divide the spoil with the strong; because He hath poured out His soul unto death; and He was numbered with the trans gressors; and He bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors." Even on the cross, our Savior made intercession for the trans- i gressors when He pleaded: "Fa ther, forgive them for they know not what they do." Centuries later the prophesy came true. The Messiah came, bom in a manger. St. Matthew tells how an angel of God came to Joseph, telling him that Mary would have a son, "And thou shalt call His name Jesus, for He shall save His people from their sins."

The good thing about this is that Dan and Betty and those other youngsters too are here, in Church, because they want to be! No one made them come. No one told them that they had to. No one threatened punishment if they didn't. Though outside it is a bright sunny day and the woods and fields and streams beckon, they are here, in God's house, at prayer. They'd like the* country and the world to know that despite all this alarming "juvenile delin quency" there are good teen-agers too. There are teen-agers who have been instructed in the Christian way of life, and who have discovered what the Church can mean to them. * * THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
