REACTIONS TO THE GOOD NEWS LESSON TEXT?Matthew 11:16-30. GOLDEN TEXT?Come unto me. all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and 1 will give you rcsL Take my yoke upon you. and learn of me: for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is R light. ?Matthew 11:28-30. The response which men and women make to the preaching of the gospel today determines their destiny for time and eternity, just as it did when Jesus was first sending out His disciples to preach. I. Childish Dissatisfaction (vv. 1619). Jesus, who was skilled in the art of teaching, took a familiar scene frciij the Utiily life of the peupltr to show how utterly childish was the criticism of His enemies. Children at play, trying to interest their companions, present a wedding scene of great joy with no response. They then try the opposite with no better result. The enemies of Christ were just like such children, and His enemies are the same today. Opposition to the gospel likes to clothe itself in learned phraseology and express itself in the terms of dignified logic, but in fact it is but an expression of personal feelings encouraged by the devil and altogether like those of disgruntled children. Not often does it show its true nature in a forthright expression of unbelief and infidelity, for it prefers to hide behind some self-righteous criticism which it can level against Christian people or against their faith. Why not be honest, unbeliever who reads these lines, and tell the truth about your reasons for failing to accept Christ. When you do that you will find that they are not reasons at all but only excuses, and there will then be hope for your repentance and conversion. II. Deadly Indifference (vv. 20-24). Rejection of Christ may be and all too often is simply indifference to His holy person and work. Jesus pronounced an awful judgment on the cities which had been honored by His presence and His great works, and which should have been awed by His message and power but which had passed Him by in uorea lnamerence. These again are typical ot countless thousands who today comfort themselves by saying, "I do not oppose the Church; I'm not against Christianity. I just don't take any position either for or against." By so doing they have declared themselves to be against Christ. Jesus said, "He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad" (Matt. 12:30). Let not such think for a moment that their judgment shali be less severe than that of the cities of Chorazin and Bethsaida! III. Childlike Faith (w. 25, 26). God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ have a great and loving interest in the touching beauty of the faith of a child. The unquestioning dependence, the absolute assurance of the child heart, these are the things that receive an answer from the Almighty. This is not intended to reflect in any way on those who may have learning, wisdom and power but who with all have maintained a childlike humility. God knows them and honors and uses them. The point we do want to make is that all too often learning and standing in this world are a barrier between men and God simply because men put their trust in these things and not in Him. It is always a serious matter when a man permits his Godgiven ability to think, to come between him and God. What folly it is to expect the infinite and eternal God who made all things, including the brain of man, to in turn pass through the narrow compass of finite thinking. IV. Restful Companionship (vv. 27-30). A study of the theories and philosophies of this world leads only to ! unrest. Bewildered and unhappy is ! the man who puts his trust in them. But in Christ the weary and belabored human soul will find perfect and eternal rest. Why then does the mass of men reject Him to go on to wander in despair? The rest which we find in Christ is not a useless ana inactive repose. Far from it. It is a blessed yokefellowship with Christ in carrying forward His work TSuiciT^ mm HUMANITY'S HOPE "Our nation i- made up of myriad* of proplr of all creed-. all rrlipion?, a)| racrs, all tongue*.
