' REFERENCE) MATERIAL Mark M:S-; Luke 7:36-60; John l.':l-8. PRIMARY TOPIC-Showing Our Love for Jesus. JUNIOR TOPIC-GlvIng Our Beit. INTERMEDIATE AND 8ENIOR TOPIC Our Best for Christ. YOUNO PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC The Liberality of Love. I. The Jewish Authorities Plotting the Death of Jesus (w. 1-5). 1. Christ's Fourth Prediction of His Death (vv. 1, 2). He, with divine Insight, predicted not only the fact of His death, but its time and man ner. Death was no surprise to Him. For this He pre-eminently came jsjto the world (Heb. 2:14). He calmly walked up to death. 2. The Authorities Plotting (vv. 3-5). In secret conclave they were plotting how they might silence His voice by putting Him to death. It was the di vine purpose that He should go to death. They id their wickedness were plotting to do that which the divine plan had ordained. They try by sub tillty to take and kill Him. Their plan was to do this after the Pass over feast, lest there be an uprising among the people. Satan, through his conspirators, was trying to hin der the offering of the sacrificial Lamb at the appointed time. II. Jesus Anointed by Mary of Beth, any (w. C, 7). For the identification of Mnry see John 12:1-8 and Mark 14:3-9. This anointing occurred when .Testis was at meat In Simon's house. Mary had (he keenest spiritual apprehension of all the disciples. Ry sitting at His feet in loving fellowship she obtained a grasp of trutb which none of the other disciples did. She saw that His body was to be broken and thai His precious life was to go out. She en tered Into fellowship with. His suffer ings and the joys of His 'resurrection bollc act H Tjrl fining her rfiost precious possession and ThvMiIng It upon Him. .Know-in? that no loving hand could minister to Him in that dread hour, she did tliis service in loving anticipa tion. It was the highest expression of love. Genuine love takes no ac count of cost Is not calculating. III. The Indignation of the Disci ples (vv. 8, 9). The utter baseness of the disciples is in strange contrast with Mary's love. Judas Iscariot is the leader, but the whole apostolic company are led over. The spirit of fault finding is very contagious. The one whose heart Is filled with base purposes can offer such plausible reasons for things that a whole company can be swept off their feet, not perceiving the real pur pose underlying It all. The real thlnp that uuijt .hulas was the losing of the mune.v which the ointment might have heen sold for, not that he cared for the poor. IV. Mnry Defended by Jesus (vv. 10 13). Jesus would not allow His most ap preciative disciple to He under the cen sure. ?o He came to her rescue. Though ill the disciples censured her, He bed nothing but the highest praise. If we can but hare Hte praise, what noea we care tor tne censure or men : He 1.. slowed upon her the very high est praise possible when He said, "She hath done what she could." (Mark 14:8). In this defense Jesus teaches, according to Doctor Erdman : 1. That no gift to Him can be too great If made In grateful love (v. 10). "She hath wrought a good work on roe." 2. Care for the poor and other du ties which are of perpetual obligation may civo way before an opportunity for service which cannot recur (v. 10) The poor ye have with you always." Sometime even charity is not the highest expression of Christian devo tion. 8. Jesus appreciates the meaning and motive of our service (v. 12). He estimates them at thei: highest possi ble value and interprets them In the light of His own love end knowledge. He declared that the ointment poured upon Him was a preparation of His body for burial. 4. The Influence of an act of Chris tian service will never cease (t. 13). The example of Mary is still filling the earth with the fragrance of loving service. Through this act of uncalcu latlng love Mary's name has become Immortalized. As the result of this defense Judas is so stlngingly rebuked that he has tens away to betray his Lord. For the Rich Man. The only way for a rich man to he healthy is by exercise and abstinence, to live as if he was poor; which jWa esteemed the worst parts ot "ofJrty. Sir W. Temple. .
