CHURCH
The topic of the sermon by the

Me More Than These?'" What is
tlie interpretation? - Did Jesus
mean, lovest thou me more than
these men love me (speaking of
the other disciples about him).
' We should try to excell In our love
for Christ. Did he mean, lovest
1 thou me more than thou lovest
I these men? Our love for each oth
er finds Its highest fullflllmen In
a. common love for Christ. Was
he asking Peter If he loved him
J more than pleasure, appetite, the
net, boat and fish? Do^you love
i me more than self? We' are the
result of our pleasures and activi
ties.
