THURSDAY, SEPT. 28, 1939 THE FRANKLIN PRESS AND THE HIGHLANDS MACQNIAN ft',,ynin ... Improved I SUNDAY International II SCHOOL LESSON Br HAROLD L. LUNDOUIST. D. D. bean ol The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. (Releaeed by Weitern Newapaper Union.) Lesson for October 1 ' Lesaon subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. THE INFANCY OF JESUS LESSON TEXT Matthew 2:13-23. GOLDEN TEXT And they shall call bis name Emmanuel, which being Inter preted Is. God with us. Matthew 1:23. Looking forward to an experience In life which promises to be both in teresting and profitable alwayi brings a glow of expectation. Some thing of that spirit should pervade the Bible schools of our land as they begin a six-months study In the Gospel of Matthew. Consideration of our Lord's life properly starts with the story of His birth, but we reserve that for our Christmas lesson. Today we stress the manner in which the Child Je sus was received into the world. Men then as now. were either for Him or against Him. God had only one attitude, that of loving protec tion and preparation of His Son for His ministry. " 1. Christ In the World of Men. Thes world of today is far differ ent from that ot the first century, but the difference is all on the out side. Almost breath taking have been the developments of modern civilization, but these have not changed the heart of man. He still fears and hates and fights and sins. His attitude toward Christ is un changed. There are still only two classes of people in the world those who have received Christ and are saved, and those who have rejected Him and are lost. 1. Against Christ. ' How do men show their rejection of God's Son? Just as they did at His birth, by: a. Fear. Herod was afraid lest the coming of this one should result in the loss of his ill gotten gains. His anger and fear made all Jerusalem afraid, b. In difference. When the Wise Men asked where Christ was to be born, the priests and scribes knew exactly where to find the facts in the Holy Scriptures, but having done so, they relapsed into utter indifference. They had no interest in the fulfill ment of the prophecy, c. Hatred. Herod poured out the violence of his heart by killing the first-born. He was the first of many who have raged against the Christ in futile anger, d. Sorrow. The tears of the mothers of Jerusalem but foreshadowed the weeping and waUinaVwbich-charac-terizes Christ-rejection both in time and eternity. 2. For Christ Thanks be to God, there were those in that day who were for Christ and, like those who follow Him to day, they showed;: a. Spirituality. Men have marveled that the Magi knew of the birth of Christ They must have studied the prophecies of the Word and been responsive to the teaching and moving of the Holy Spirit. Can we say as much for ourselves? b. Interest. Not content to know and to marvel, they shamed the priests of Israel by their per sistent interest in this great thing which had come to pass. c. Love. They brought themselves in worship and they brought rich gifts from their treasures. You can give with out loving, but you cannot love with out giving, d. Action. They came. They persisted until they found the Christ. Tlien they listened tq God. and prqtecte His Sop by not re turning; to Herod. H, Chrlrt to Op4 World, Men had brought (in and ruin into the world. They had rejected His Eon, but God still ruled and we see Him protecting, preparing, and ful filling prophecy through His Son. I. Protecting. Men may hate and seek to destroy God's Son. Satan may inspire them with Ingenuity and cunning, but see how the Eternal One speaks to Joseph in dreams, how He prepares a place of refuge in Egypt and ultimately in Naza reth, where the boy J,esus may in- crease ir yrisdom and stature am) avpr with Gpd and man. g. Preparing. God knows pf tl days of public ministry which are ahead and above all, of that day when on Golgotha' hill Christ was. in His own body, to prepare salva tion for you and tor me, God is not taken by surprise. He moves for ward to the completion of His plan with the stately tread of eternity. 3. Fulfilling. God also sees to it that prophecy is fulfilled. We read in verses 15 and 23, "that it might be fulfilled" and In verse 17. "then was fulfilled." God's Word is always sure, for He makes it so. His In finite and eternal faithfulness guar antees the fulfillment of every proph ecy, yes, and of every promise of His Holy Word. v Progress of Mankind Jn my youth, looking at this man anp that, marvelled that humanity jiad made so little progress. Now, looking at man In the multitude, I marvel that they have advanced so far. George Glssing, Doing a Kindness It ydu have bestowed a kindness on your friend, do not regret that you have done so, as you should rather be ashamed of having acted otherwise. Platus. Iotla By MRS. D. M. ROWLAND Quite a number of the Iotla resi dents attended the quarterly sing ing at Burningtown church Sunday. Several classes and quartets were present.
