Truly yours, FRANK E. KNIGHT who attend church regularly and faithfully follow the prescription freely offered by Jesus Christ. Mr. Rogers says of his sermon that “fear in the time of Jesus Christ gripped the very soul of men and anchored them to a life of hate and fear, The arbitrary power and ruthless execution of tical leaders made life unbearable. In their frustration they readily turned to Jesus and the common people heard him gladly. Even to- day freedom from fear is still of- fered through Jesus Christ.

John 3 By RALPH ROGERS | It is assumed that many people have studied and commented on the lesson as we find it today.

Too often we for- get the object of his visit, the old, | old question, what must. I do to; be saved. Jesus gives the answer to the most important question. Some have said that Nicodemus was a skeptic. He simply wanted) to get some informtion or evidence! on Jesus so that he could further) persecute and prosecute him. The) designing mind would reach such| a conclusion because Nicodemus) was a Pharisee and a member of | ithe Sanhedrin, the governing body| lof the Jewish religion. Had he! been so inclined like far too many so-called religious people today, he could have rendered an errone- ous report, reading into the con- versation meanings not at all in- jtended and misrepresented Jesus words entirely. Nicodemus was too intelligent for that, He believed in| |God and in the religion of his fath-| jers. He had something to stick to. Far too many today are not so, fortunate. They are like the skeptic; jon his death bed calling in another of his ilk and the consoling broth- er said, ‘Stick to it Tom.” And! Tom gasped, “Yes, but there’s nothing to stick ,to” Nicodemus rather was a brave man. Surrounded as he was with the bigotry and darkness of a blind? ed and stagnated church council, he bravely and bodily went out at night to get the truth. Had his brother Pharisees seen him go they would have censored his re- port, they would perhaps have liquidated him as was the common) practice of the day especially to} SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON jare to hav life it must be of the |such a one yould be “a teacher his “Decadence” he wrote, “Man’s further, advance depends upon the inpouriig of divine grace which is vouchsded to him by the Divine Author ¥f his being.” (C.
