REVIEW: CLOSING PERIOD OF CHRIST'S MINISTRY. Golden text—Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, yea, and forever.—Hebrews, xiil.8. During the last nine months our studies have followed the life of Jesus Christ. They have served to give us a vision of the greatest personality in all history. Although a recent writer has presented a study of the Lord’s career under the title of “The Man Nobody Knows,” yet facing the facts that we have considered during the last three quarters there has come the conviction that our knowledge of Him is such that we know that “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, yea, and forever.” Prof. Julius Richter has been point- ing out in & serfes of lectures that he has been delivering in many Ameri- can educational centers, the desperate conditions of the religious world, due to gigantic spiritual changes in reli- gious falths throughout the world. This eminent authority has enumer- ated vital chenges due to the fact that ‘religlous concepts that have gulded nearly half of the human ra for centurfes have been destroyed.” ‘We face an unusual situation in the religious life of the world, with the majority of the human race today without any firm foundations for their faith. According to Prof. Rich- ter, “the romantio tearism of Russls, which embodied the spiritusa] ideas of the Greek Catholic Church, {& & thing of the past. The religious life of & tenth of mankind is affected by the change.” The Mohammedans have abolizhed “the Moslem caliphate.” The caliph has been exiled. The whole world of Islam is reduced to confusion, and this confusion touches the religious life of an eighth of the race. When the Manchu dynasty fell in China thers fell with it religious ideas 4,000 years old. Under the ancient order em- peror, viceroy and mandarin acted as priests, offering the annual sacrifices of the people to their spiritual rulers. This whole system culminated in the service of the emperor, acting as priest for the whole nation, at the altar of heaven in Peking. This is all gone now. The change in China is a change that affects a quarter of the race.” The Unshaken Christ. Our studies brought us face to face with the facts of Christ's life recorded in the Gospels, which we studied along sclentific lines without preconceptions s to their meaning. During the first two quarters we followed the life of the Master from His birth in Bethlehem's manger to the close of the central period of His ministry, when he demonstrated His power over death by raising Laz- arus. During those lessons we found Jeslus guiding His followers into what was, in truth, a new world, into a new understanding of life {n all its relations. He tried to make clear the relations that were obscure, and give to His fol- lowers a perspective of life and help them to understand its epiritual value. He gave them a new attitude toward God and a new attitude to men. He filled them with new enthusiasm, new passions and new sympathies. We noticed the evidence that Jesus | knew that as a result of His ministry He faced an inevitable end. There was | something about our Lord that was be- yond human knowledge. so that con cerning His life the disciples were per- plexod. Probably every person. who has tried to solve ail the problems concern- ing the life of Christ, has found in their study of our Lord a never-ending mys- tery. Henry Drummond has well said, “We are dealing with facts; we need not be distressed if we do not under- stand them. God's love—how could we? | God's forgiveness—how could we?’ Tt was inevitable that when the teachings of Christ clashed with the vested selfish | interests of His day that He would meet the opposition of the Pharisees. The Lord's love for the people, who were | suffering oppression from their harg and fast legal system, aroused their antagonism by His attitude to- ward their cherished ideals and re- ligious graft. We saw it open up dur- ing His Galilean ministry, but their op- position did not change His plans. He faced the cross and we saw Him move toward Jerusalem, knowing that it would mean His death, without fear. We followed Him in Hie calling and training the 12, who every day dis- covered something attractive and new about the personality of their Master, but who looked shead to a place in & temporal kingdom, due to the influence of their national teachings and re- ligious expectation of a Messiah. They had ventured all that they possessed in their love for Him and His principl but they protested vigorously at the e dent purpose of Christ to suffer. This was contrary to their expectations. We saw the followers of Christ falling away at His refusal to accept political leadership and honors. There was dan- ger that the apostles would leave Him, as He set His face toward Jerusalem, if He had not possessed the poise that in- epired them by His unshaken confidence and faith. . Last Week. The closing portion of ' Christ's ministry has been the subject of our last quarter's studies. In giving one- third of our time to studying the events of the Masters last week in the flesh and His 40 days spent among men after His resurrection, we fol- lowed the example of the writers of His life in the gospels. From the entrance of Jesus in triumph over the palm-spread roads from Bethany to Jerusalem amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the people until he was crucified, our Lord bent all His cfforts to prepare His apostles for His inevit- able end on the cross. The attitude of the people had aroused false hopes of a temporal kingdom among his followers and fill- ed His enemies with a determination to put Him away. The final conflict came in the temple, where the Master made a practical demonstration of the rights He claimed as a judge and the powers that He prophesied that He would use in the administration of justice, when He comes again. He had cursed the fig tree that pretended to bring forth fruit, and He cleansed the temple the second time, which astened the end. In His earnest con- versation with His disciples, He claim- od that thers would be a judgement, which would result in a final separa- tion of the good from the evil. In the wseclusion of the ‘“upper room,” where they had met to gbserve the Passover, Jesus, in an effort to fill the Apostles with courage by in- stituting the Lord’s Supper, delivered His farewell message, and sought help for them from above in an intor- cessory ‘prayer before He conducted them to Gethsemane. There, beneath the shade of the anclent olive trees, Chirst prayed and fought out the battle of Calvary, so that when His betrayer approached with the officers to arrest Him, the unshaken poise of Christ made Him the master of ‘the hour. When called upon to face tha religious and civil authorities, it was not Jesus who was agitated, but the Jjudges and His enemlies. Instead of their judging Christ, He was judging them. The f{llegal trials resulted in the tradegy of the centuries in the cruci- fixion of the Lord, whose victory over the grave was proven beyond question. It resulted in changing the spirit of the Apostles, 80 that they started preaching the gospel in the oity of Jerusalem. They became living wit- nesses of the gospel of the resurrec- tion. We are called upon to proclatm to w shaking world the message of sulvation that Christ has given us to preach to all men. We have ex- perienced the saving power of His death and triumphant resurrection. Our Ablding Message. Our studies have brought us face to face at times with some of the modern dificultles concerning our faith. It is inevitable that the in- fluence of the changing civilization should manifest itself along religlous lines. The centuries have witnessed an Increasing power of the Christ, who has given to men in His gospel the power and the method of using it, 80 that it can be transformed and help to change the modern conditions that need to be corrected. The gospels have implied more than they state, 80 we have found that “Jesus Christ transcends our categories and classification; we never exhaust Him; and one element of Christian happi- ness is that there is always more in Him than we supposed.” Faclng a perishing world, unable to help itself, we have the only message that can save men and nations, Our studies have revealed to us God's love for_the world in providing for them a Savior. He has given His only begotten Son, who died to save us and seeks as our living Lord to en- able us to carry the message of our faith to the last man in the remotest corners of the earth. “There is no other name given whereby men may be saved.” He has entrusted that message to us. We are to carry it to the uttermost part of the world Dby our life and song. Our message is one that inepires the poet and thrills the soul of all who recognize their need of a Savior. While the changes of the years may call for a different way of expressing the gospel, that contains the message of hope for all mankind, we will have among the changing centuries but one abiding message. We are to tell them of “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, yea, and forever.” LIBERTY OF CONSCIENCE SUBJECT OF DR. PIERCE Divine Will Talk of Famous Westminster Declaration. Rev.
