From this distance we feel inclined to ask about the general char acter of Jesus' disciples who declared his resurrection, rather than to inquire particularly respecting all the details which they enumerated. In broad terms we say, If the characters of tbe i Apostles prove themselves satisfactory to ns, we are ready to take their word the resurrection of Jesus his subsequent appearances to Oa the other hand, if they were bad men or otherwise unworthy to be believed, no amount of details respect ing the tomb, the watch, the seals, etc.. would be satisfactory to us, because cunning and designing men could make up the story to suit their desires. But it was not so at the time of our Lord's death and resurrection. It was then very necessary that every little detail should be explicitly specified. The parts at three days and nights, for instance, were unimportant to them because of Jesus' words, which thfv nmimhmwt ITp likpnpd his rw- riod in death to the period to which ?e! Jonah was to the whale's belly. There are some today disposed to quibble over the matter and to claim that Jesus died on Thursday and not on Friday. Surely, however, all can con cede that it matters nothing to us on which day of the week he died, nor the number of hours he was to the tomb, whether seventy-two hours to the minute or a less exact time. With us the important -question is. Did be die? Did he arise from the dead? Was there a value to his sacrificial death, from the Divine standpoint, and bow is that value or merit made applicable to mankind, and have we obtained our interest thereto according to the Di vine terms? "He Rose Again on the Third Day" With tbe majority of Christians for 1 these many centuries we agree that Jesus was to the tomb parts of three days and nights; that he died on Fri day afternoon, and that be arose from the dead early on Sunday morning. But we are not contentious. Let who likes believe that he died on Thurs day or Wednesday or Tuesday or an other day; this is a matter of no im portance. The all-important matter is. "He ever liveth to make intercession for us." (Rom 8:34.) Tbe stone at the mouth of tbe stwulchre wss not a huge boulder, as many suppose, but was shaped like a wheel like a large grindstone. It rolled to a groove, but being heavy, would be cumbersome and difficult for the women, as sug gested. The sorrowing friends of Jesus did not realize at tbe time what be had taught them respecting his crucifixion and subsequent resurrection. Hence they were surprised with every inci dent of their experience on that event ful Sunday morning. The angel ap peared to dazzling brightness, that he might not be mistaken for a man. He told tbe women who brought spices for the embalming of tbe Lord's body that their Master was risen from the dead that he was no longer dead; that they would see him in Galilee; and to so tell his disciples. On the wsy Jesus met them and ' revealed himself to them. Another account tells us that. Mary, separated from the others, met Jesus alone and, mistaking him for the gardener, asked whither the corpse had been removed. Tnen Jesus re vealed himself to her. Recognizing her Master she clasped him by the feet as though afraid that he would leave ber; but, different from his previous course, he declared, "Touch me not for I have not yet ascended to my Father and your Father, to my God and to your God." Instead of delaying to com mune with me, hasten at ones to tell Peter and the others of my resurrec tion. How careful was the Master that Peter should be mentioned by amine, lest he should fuel thst h. rorever rejected because of baring de nied him! For forty days Jean m wth hi. disciples and during that time he ap peared some seven or eight times, ac cording to all the different unseats Unc he appeared as a gardener. Once ne appeared as a traveler to two of the disciples going to Bnuaiu. Again ne appeared on the shore of the Hem of Galilee to seen of the disciples who were returning to the fishing business They knew it was Jesus, yet he was different from formerly. But we read that they did not dare ask him re specting the matter. Hs appeared again to above five hundred believers to the mountains of Gsluee. and final ly, by appointment, be met tbe sin sat at the top of the Mount of Olives and ascended out of their sight a cloud receiving him. Only o two occasional are we Informed that ba appeared with nail prints In his bands and the spear wound to his side. And on these two occasions we are distinctly told that he appeared in their'midst. the doors be ing sbut. and that be vanished again from their sight. Thus did Jesus demonstrate to has disciples the fact that he was no longer dead, but allve.and additionally, tbe other fact equally important namely, that he was no longer alive as a man, but as a spirit being. As St Paul de clares. "He wss put to deatb to flesh, but made alive to spirit.' But every precaution was token to permit their natural powers of observation to com prehend tbe spiritual truths revealed to them respecting Jesus' resurrection and ascension. It was tea days after his ascension, on tbe fiftieth day from his resurrection, thst the holy Spirit came, and thus demonstrated at once that the Redeemer lived and that be bad appeared to tbe presence of God on the spirit plane and that hie sacri fice had been presented and was ac ceptable to God; and. oa tbe basts of his sacrifice and the imputation of his merit to the disciples, tbe sacrifice which they had presented to hat name were accepted, and they were begotten of the holy Spirit, that they might also become New Creatures and share to his Kingdom and glory. His Death and RsOMrraotien Newdful It is needless that ere seek to dispute as to which was tbe more important event the death of Jesus or has resur rection from tbe lined Both were equally Important Had he net (Had there would be no bests for s f srosag lstion of Adam and his race ed to death. Had he would have been no one to apply the merit of his sacrifice. Had be not risen there would have been no call of the Church during this Gospel Age to be tbe Bride of Christ.' neither would there have been us for the promised Mediatorial Kingdom to be established at his Second Oeesbxg for Tabs blisses g of Israel sad the Thus Jesus explained to with whom be walked to Km ma us on the day of his resurrection, saying. O slow of heart to believe all that God hath spoken to the Law and In Was it not necessary that should die and should ris from tbe dead, thst to his name re pentance and remission of alas mlgn be proclaimed? How could any be In vited to come to God until a way had been opened, until the price had been provided? Whoever can bear this meaaage and accept 182 CHRISTMAS IN A Little Party of U.IM.
