Duncan 'IF HE BE THE KING OF ISRAEL, LET HIM NOW COME DOWN FROM THE CROSS AND WE WILL BELIEVE IN HIM. Math. 27-42 When Jesus hung upon the cross the Chief Priests said: "Let Him come down from the cft)6s and we will believe in Him." Their attitude re flects that of many people through the ages, and today. Theirs is an escapest religion. If God does not answer their prayers in the way in which they want them answered, they will no longer believe in Him. If Jesus had not died upon that cross His mission to the world would never have been accomplished. We cannot understand all that was involved in that death, but we know that "It was for us He hung and suffered there"; and had He not suffered there would have been no re demption for us. From the very beginning erf His ministry, Jesus knew that it involved humility, suffering, and death. He knew, when He left the wilderness of temptation, that His face was set towards Calvary, and throughout His earthly ministry He knew that He was walking that path. There are millions today who feel that re- Hgion must give them what they want, or they will not believe in religion. If God does not answer their prayers as they feel they should be answer ed, they refuse to believe in God or prayer. Be fore they believe, Jesus must come down from the cross. He must keep them from all sick ness, sorrow, pain, and reward them with pros perity, or they will not believe. Christiana must share that cross with Jesus. Their primary concern in life must be the con cern of Jesus—His father's will, His concern for people, and a concern for the truth—and a will ingness to die for conviction and high purpose. The Christian must believe and obey in sharing the cross before he can uhderstand its meaning or receive its blessings. Striving to avoid sharing the cross, means losing its power. TF ANY MAN WOULD COME AFTER ME, LET HIM DENY HIMSELF, TAKE UP HIS CROSS AND FOLLOW ME. Pageant will be $50.00, sec ond prize $26.00, Third prize $15.00 and fourth prize SIO.OO.
