Then they stood silently to ene side for a moment and when we looked again a panel had opened and they had vanished.

In many quarters there is & revival of interest into the study of fe (His life) and such is due to the fact that he has been found to be the Master of every situation which he faced. Then humanity knowing this has a greater respect for the God man and beg under stands his coming. He came into a world of expectations. For thou- sands of years the Jews had been looking for the advent of a per- sonality, whose influence for good would be so great, that by reason of it their souls would be exalted by the removal of the weight of sin, and the lost heritage of Eden Japan. Geisha girls and chop sticks were again ‘the order of the evening.

A moment later there was 4 loud ex- plosion.

They felt themselves not to be what God would have them, and felt such to be due to their lack of godliness. The priests had of- fered sacrifices, and the prophets had spoken of His coming from the heights of inspiration; and some- times they believed themselves to have seen him, when such person alities as Isa. Jer. and John came upon the scene. They expected cer- tain things of the Christ, and he could not be their Christ without them. He came into a world of one-sided formalism. People washed their hands a dozen times a day, but made no effort to Cleanse their hearts. They would not set a prop against a tottering building on the Sabbath but actually got made when Christ offered salva- tion to outsiders and they accepted it, He came into a world of fear. Everything was based on fear. Re ligion, industry and government. fe came into a world of slavery. Ten thousand had been crucified in Rome before His day. How did He face these condition: He sided with none save those in the right. He taught that the motive which prompts action is greater than the rection, He taught that God is love; and that all souls were made by God, therefore the soul of a slave was as precious In God’s sight as that of a erince. His purpose was to bring God to men. This is the kind of Christ we worship at this season. This is He of whom the angels sang He is God's gift. “For Goi so loved the world that he gave his only be- gotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." Then let us wor: ship Him in spirit and in truth. The First Presbyterian Tabernacle, REV. CHAS, A. WILSON, D.D, “Unto you, a Saviour.” Lu. 2:11 Not to Pharisees, Scribes, Hero- dians or Zealots, filled with their own schemes and busy with their own devices; not to Roman digni- taries, or soldiers, representatives of world power; but to shepherds keep- ing watch over their flocks by night. The good tidings of great joy were to all people. The shepherds were At representatives of the multitudes of humanity. To every man, woman and child in the world, the message of the angel song has appropriate application; “unto you is born a Saviour.” When Lincoln died, John Hay made this significant remark, “Now he belongs to the ages.” He holds this place by reason of his eminent position, his Christian character, and his service to human- ity. In a higher sense Jesus be- longs to all mankind. He is called “the desire of all Those who know Him are to make Him known to all men. He is the chil- dren's Christ, and the significance of Christmas joys of our own little children is to be carried to all the children of the earth. “He is the poor man's Christ and the rich man’s Christ. The renowned and the lowly, the wise and the simple, with no distinctions of station, cir cumstance, race or kind, may share the joyful tidings, “unto you a Saviour.” The observance of the day will lose its deeper significance if our affections for ‘Him He dor- mant, and tho sacrificial spirit un | awakened.
