montar, Prepared by Rev. O. M.
Stoarns i
These t< it verses 111 Luke vl are, a
part of 11. < discourse la the presence
of His ill* .^ee and a great multitude
of .people who came to bear Him and
to be healed of tbalr diseases as. He
came down from the mountain and
stood In tbe plain. The teaching Is
somewhat similar to that In last week's
lesson, but tbe poverty and hunger and
weeping <seem to be more literal phys.
leal conditions than In the Sermon
on tbe Mount; also by contrast tho
riches and fullness and laughter of
verses 24. 25. Tbe contrast between
tbe "now" and a future time Is more '
fully set forth In the Luke xvi lesson,
and the bright side of it Is cohclsejy
staled in I Cor. xili. 12. "Now' we see
ttirvugli a glass darkly, but then face
to face: now I know In part, but then
shall I know even as also I .am known."
As to literal . poverty. ' we know the
grace of our Lord Jesus Christ?that,
though He was rich, yet for our sakes
He became poor, that we through His.
poverty might be rich (II Cor. Till. 9>.
and k? we think of the Bethlehem
manger, the Nazareth home and the
hanger and thirst and homelessnesa of
His life ofttlmes In His public ministry
we may perhaps Imagine something of
ordinary poverty; but who can tell the
foil meaning of the emptying, tbe
service, the humility and obedience of
Phil. 11. 7, & R. V.? The literally
rich are often poor In spirit, meek and
lowly at heart while the literal poor
are often proud and self centered. We
Bust always remember that the Lord
looketh on the heart and trleth the
heart (I Sam. xvL T: Jer. xvll. 10).
The "woe unto you, when all men shall
speak well of you" of verse 25 seems
not to be a very popular verse In some
quarters, for even preachers and evan
gelists have been known to hold bark
tbe truth on certain great topics so as
to have the approval of men. a very
prominent worker having recently said
publicly that he aimed never to hurt
the feelings of his fellow ministers
Hu ? i pi .i ? different from. Him who
said. . "I do always those things that
please the Father." and also from the
apostle whose principle was "not as
pleasing men. bnt God. who trieth our
hearts" (John Till, 29; Thess. II, 4).
Concerning the topic of our lesson.
"Poverty and Riches," Luke abound* |
In records of rich men, as in xll. 1C:
xvl, t; XTiil. 23; ill, 2; xxL 1, besides |
the rich man and Lazarus of the' last
part of our lesson. From these pas
sages we note that a man's life con
sisted not In the abundance of the
things which he possesseth, and some |
would do well to ask themselves. "Then
whose shall those things be?" Hlches
sometimes make It difficult for the
owners to enter the kingdom, and yei
Zaccheus, who was rich, did enter
Sometimes the gifts of the rich did not
count as much In Hia sight as the gifts [
of the poor. We are simply stewards. [
whether Intrusted with mysteries 07
money or other things, and we tnnsi
give an account of our stewardship I
We may so use that which la Intrusted I
to us as to become rich toward God
(Luke U, 21). and those who have been
helped by us to know the Lord will
make greater to us the glory In His
kingdom, while the Lord Himself wi
re ward all BUs faithful ones at the
resurrection of the Just (Luke ztr. 14;
Rev. nil. 12). Our Luke xvl lesson
study reads like a statement of facts,
and there Is no reason why It should be
called a parable. It la the one occasion
on which onr Lord drew aside the veil
and gave us to see the unseen realltle>
after we leave these bodies, plainly
teaching that-for each one It wfll be
happiness or torment, not tbe highest
degree of bliss which will be tbe be
liever's portion only after the resurrec
tion of the righteous nor the deepest
woe which will be the unbeliever's
portion sfter the Judgment of the great
white throne, but a conscious existence
in bliss or woe. with no possibility of
passing from one to the other. The
reason of the rich man's condition aft
er death was not because he had been |
rich, but from the last verse of tbe
chapter It la evident that when on
earth he had no nse for Moses or the
prophets. Be was not a believer In
the Scriptures, bat evidently proud and
self satisfied. After death he proved
the rt^utf nt ? pi?<~f nt torment and
became anxious that bis brethren
should not reach the same destination
Re pleaded that If one went from tbe j
dead tbey would believe, but was told
that the writings of Moses and the I
prophets were all sufficient. We know |
from John xl and xll that another uian
named Laiarus did rise from the dead
bat while some believed otners sought
to kill him again (John xll. 10, 1X1? Our I
blessed Lord Jesus Christ, by whom [
and for whom all things were created,
knew tbe unseen realities as no, one
else did. and we. may count on every
word He said as being literally so. Br
his death for our sins and resurrection
from the dead He has provided for
given ess of sins, eternal life, eternal |
redemption, a joint heirship with Him
self foe "whosoevsr will," end only
those wbo'recetve Him are the truly
rich for time and eternity (Prov. vlil.
18. Bar. ifl. IS). All other* at* poor In
deed. Oh, the multitudes of rich poor
