Psalm xclv. Golden Text: Let us also, see- ing we are compassed about with sogrea t a cloud of wit- nesses, Jay aside every welght, d .the sin which “doth %o easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is - b‘fo‘n us.—Heb., xxi.1. Our quarter's studies with the ex- ception of the Easter lesson have been a serfes of surveys of the “Great Men and Women of the Old Tes ment.” Our lessons have taught us that God has used a great variety of personalities in His work. The nine men and two women whose careers and characters we have considered have differed widely in their capa- bilities and culture. Probably no bet- ter guide for a review of the lives of the outstanding heroes, whose efforts, supported by many unnamed heroes, have made the history of the Jewish people the greatest in the expression of the power of faith, can be found than that recorded in Hebrews. Our first lesson presented the hi torio foundation for the Christ faith in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which is the basic principle of Christianity. The triumph of the Lord over death calls for men to oxpress their faith in Him by a life of “self-surrender. In the epistle to the Hobrews the writer gives us a magnificent exposition of the faith of the great heroes that was demon- strated by thelr loyalty to their moral convictions. Religion under both the Old Testament and the New is the same. All the heroes whose careers we have studled have proved beyond question that the foundation for their greatness has been thelr faith, which they revealed by their loyalty to their convictions of truth and duty. The oleven Old Testament per- sonalities and Jesus established the reality of their faith by their lives. “They could not prove thelr correct- ness by demonstrative arguments, but they had intuitions and persua- sions arising in their souls which were absolutely authoritative with them, and they were gloriously loyal to them. They sacrificed the inter- ests of this physical order—comfort, prosperity, ~health, life—that they might be absolutely loyal to the be- hests of the spiritual order”” The writer to the Hebrews represents Josus, “not as the object of faith, but as the supreme leader and ex- emplar of the life of faith A recent writer has given to the American public his list of the seven great men of America. He has chosen them from the various flelds of hu- men endeavor and given his reason for considering them as the greatest In their line. In every one of these seven there existed a personal faith, as the foundation of their greatness, as with those heroes of the Old Testa- ment, which lifted them above the average man in thinking and tofl. Not all possess the same distin- guished marks of greatness. Abraham headed the list of our studies. He had a vision of a glortous future. He was the friend of God | who listened to “His Master's Voice" jand responded to God's call to go jforth in the way of duty, looking for |God'u blessing. ~He earned the right {to be called the “Father of the Faith- {ful” by leaving the rich fertile plains of Mesopotamia and going to the un- {known land which God had promised him. Judaism, Mohammedanism and Christianity find in his loyalty to his convictions the commencement of their faith. He “believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for right- eousness.” Joseph proved his faith by his patience amid the trials of adver. sity as a slave and prisoner. He in his efforts to be helpful to others, devoted as a son, and when raised to the premiership of Egypt he ex- tended the hand of forgiveness to his brothers who had betrayed him into slavery, seeing by his faith the prov! dence of God that made their hatred {to be a means through which he was brought to his place of eminence and power. “By faith Joseph, when he died. made ‘mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave 1 Moses revealed his unselfishnes his devotion to the despised Hebr:"v‘y He revealed his courage when he r sponded to the call of God, having been prepared, by his forty years in the courts of Egypt and his forty years in the desert's solitude, to un- dertake the leadership of the most influential and greatest national emancipation recorded in history. “He brought to this great enterprise was faithful to every task, unselfish | icommandment concerning his bones.” | STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, SATURDAY, JUNE 23, 1923 |Sunday School Lesson thusiasm, valor, wisdom, patience, meekness, perseverance under diffi- culties, resourcefulness and resolu- tion in moments of trial” The great 1fderator and lawglver acknowledged his dependence upon God and ga Him credit for the success of hi endeavors. All those whose characters we have considered during the quarter proved their falth by a series of tests that demonstrated their loyalty to God and their convictions of duty. The sacrifices were not all allke. Ruth was the only one who was not a Hebrew by birth. We saw the Moabitish, widow sacrifice the oppor- tunities of her homeland that she might sty with the lonely Naomi and make her happy in the land of Israel. She proved her faith by sacrificing her religion, idols, family and friends out of her devotion and lave to her mother-in-law and her God. courage that she exhibited resulted in her becoming the ancestress ot David the Lincoln of Israel. He arose from the ranks of the poor to become priest, prophet and po- tentate maker of the nation. The incorruptible judge saved the nation from its enemles. He won the people back to God and gulded it into the kingdom. He set apart both Saul and David in response to the divine call. David was the “Teddy” of his nation. No other arose to the lead- ership of Israel that was as versatile as David. Others exceeded him In certain lines of activity, but none equaled him in the_ ablility to do so many things well. He was a success as soldler. statesman, poet and exe- cutive. Heo touched life at more points than others. He was tried, as was Samuel. They proved their faith by planning for their suc- cessors. It was the sin of Samuel’s sons that caused his undoing and his making way for Some one else. David's own sin caused his downfall. He proved his faith by his repentance and devotion to God's cause, The three prophets, Elijah, Tsaiah and Jeremiah were all tested by trials. The courageous Elijah de- veloped under the adversity which he warned the nation was certain to come. The patriotic and cultured Isaizh was brought to see God's glory through the death of Uzzlah. The broken-hearted Jeremiah faced per- secution, suffering and even death in his efforts to save the nation that he loved. Trouble deepened their faith and loyality to Jehovah. The writer to the Hebrews has pointed out that he saw in the sufferings of the righteous a providential training for nobler characters. The experience of those in the exile would appear to justify such an Interpretation of the providential training and dis- cipline for nobler character. History, it has been well sald, is God teaching by example. All hu- man records contain His message, but we find_In the annals of the Jewish nation His story being worked out in the lives of men. We have failed in our study of the past quarter if we have neglected to see the evi- dence of God's presence among men, working in_and through them, to ac- complish His purpose in the world. Each of the heroes has a different message to tell for each illustrates a different story 'to men. Nebemiah, the ‘shrewd courtier and practical statesman, appears to belonged to the present century, although he was at- tached to the ancient Persian court. He belonged to the great because he belleved things could be done. He did things by his thorough methods of wstudying facts, organizing his forces and Inspiring all to attempt to do the impossible. “He was un- compromising with evil, and ruled in the fear of the Lord. He was irreproachable in conduct, broad- minded, humble, dependant upon God, independent of man when occasion required. He was a man of gentle- ness and of firmness, of prayer and of push, of faith and of works, of caution and of courage, of eympathy and of persistence, of deliberation and of energetic, prompt action.” Esther met the'call of duty by con- secrating herself to the task of sav- ing her nation. - She risked her all in an effort to overcome the danger that threatened her people. She proved her faith by her actions. Not a nation, but the needs of the whole | civilized world cries unto America at | this hour. If we will exercise our faith and heed God's call to a life of sacrificial service, we will follow the leadership of not only the Lord Jesus, but also the example of the “Great Men and Women of the Old Testa- ment.” The testimony of these | heroric personalities proves that the Wway of faith, even when it calls for | sacrifices, suffering and service for the glory of God and the uplift of | humanity, is the pathway to human | greatness. They call us to make our |Tives like theirs “footprints upon the |sand of time” that will encourage others to have faith in our Lord and | do their duty at all times and in all en- | places.
