LESSOX TEXT-Matt. :M-:o COLt'KN 'l.'iXT-l am with you always, tven unto the enU of the world -Matt. 58.20 REFERENCE MATERIAL - Matt 27: 11-66. Mark 16:1-1S, Luke 2S.oO. 24.12. John 20:1-18. Phil. 3.8-11. PRIMARY TOPIC-T1W Easter tory. JUNIOR TOPIC - Our Ever-Present Friend INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC Christ Our Living Leader. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC Chriit In the Life of Today I. The Empty Sepulchcr (vv. 1-7). l. The earthquake (w. 1-4). This occurred when tlie glorious impel de scended from heaven lo roll the stone away from the tomb. This iv&rfc of the impel was not lo allow Jesus lo esc.'ipe, hut lo show Hint the tomfi was empty. Christ needed no! even the help ot :i glorious" impel, for lie was raised up by His own power as the seal upon Ills atoning work on the cross The open tomb and the angel sitting upon the stone with calm dig nity is a picture of God's triumph over the devil, and the terror of the keepers is a sample of what nil of Chrisfs enemies shall one day experi ence when He comes in glory to reign as King. 2. The angel's message to the wom en (vv. 5-7). (1) "ear not" (v. 5). While the enemies had occasion to fear, these women who loved the Lord received good news from the empty tomb. The Lord will not long leave those who follow Him In love in sus pense and dread. The empty tomb puts tin e.nd to all doubts and fears. It is the evidence that the question of Bin is dealt with, and that God is sat isfied and eternal victory is secured (2) "Come, see" (v. 6). The angel told the women that the Lord had risen and invited them to come and see the plnca where He lay. The rea son He invites them to come in Is that He desires them to make sure about the facts. The Lord made spe cial effort to convince the disciples of the reality of His resurrection. He remained with them for 40 days, giv ing them many infallible proofs. (3) ''Go quickly" (v. 7). Having seen for themselves, their responsibility was to go tell the message. While It is Important to be convinced of facts, ne should not stay too long' because there is work to do. Experience Is necessary before testimony. They were to go quickly to the disciples with the message, assured that the Lord would go before and meet them. II. The Risen King Meets the Women (vv. 8-10.) The women quickly obeyed the com mand of the inipel and were running to bring the disciples word. Jesus . met them on the way. Those who have an .experimental knowledge of Christ should go speedily lo tell oth ers of it. All who go quickly with His message. tha Iord will meet on the woy. When they saw Jesus, that He was renliy the Lord, they worshiped Him. They knew that He was the Son of Cod, therefore entitled to be worshiped. III. Paying Money to Circulate a Lie (w. 11-15). That Jesus arose from the dead could not even fee denied by the Sam hedrin They could see but one way out of the difficulty, that was to bribe the keepers to tell a lie. They had paid money for His betrayal ; now they pay much more to circulate a lie about His resurrection. What a won derful power money has over the lives and consciences of men ! It will not only induce people to lie. but it even muzzles the mouths of preachers. IV. The King's Great Commission (vv 10-20). By virtue of His royal authority He issued this great command to the dis ciples. In order to prepare, them to receive fhis command. He declared un to tliem that all power in heaven and earth was given unto Him. This Is most fundamental. Only as the dis ciples realize the Lord's power :ir they likely to go about with the v mes sage. 1. "Go, teach ajl nations." This Is the first and primary business of the disciples The risen and. mighty Lord issues this command to all (v. 10). 2. Baptize theinTfi the name of the Triune God. Those who have become disciples of the Lord should receive thai rite 'which signifies that relation ship to Him (v. 10). 3. Tench them to observe all Christ's commandments (v. 20). Those who become Christ's disciples should be tnught obedience to all His commands All .vhc thus obey Him shall enjoy His abiding presence. Christ's abiding presence guarantees the success of the enterprise. Gloves Found. Found Pair of kid gloves in Baptist church at Rockingham. Owner can get same by applying to J. T. Henry.

The day had been looked forward to with intense Intel est by all Germany and Poland as well, while evidences of world-wide attention upon the balloting were not lacking in advices from abroad. The area Involved, comprising, some five thousand square miles, was the largest section of territory to have Its fate submitted to a plebiscite un der peace treatyT but even more im portant than the size of the district was the material wealth contained In Its varied mineral resources, mainly coal, but also including iron, zinc and lead.
