Fiske Johunson and turned aside and fell into the pit-—into confugion, darkmness, sepa- ration from God. This was the very matter against which fore- warned them, They were following the lead of the Scribes and Pharisees and doctors of the law, all of whom were blind leaders who misled their too trusting tollowers. The disciple or follower will not fare better than his master or leader or teacher; he cannot hope for better results than his leader, Jesus How important, then, that God's people recognize the true Leader, Jesus, that they hear His voice, and Leed not the voice of others, In the present, in the ending of this Gospe! Age, we have a condition of things very similar to that which obtained in the end of the Jewish age. We havy many great, learned and wise ren in all the denominations of Christendom, as the Jews bhad in Jesus' day in all their different sects, 1t is equally important that we take heed that we do not follow blind leaders today; in fact, it is much more important, Why should we follow any ¢! the creeds when now we have the word of God in such convenient form and when all are able to read it Who cannot rejoice that recent- 1y the pope issued instructions that the Roman Catholic bishops should encourage Catholics to study the Bible? How it would rejoice us to find the Protestant leaders similarly urging the word of God upon their peoples! Alas! On the contrary, we find that many of the great and wise of the principal pulpits of the world are undermining the faith of the people by telling them that the Bible is not Divinely inspired, that Moses and the prophets did not write the books ascribed to them, and hence indirect- Iy saying that Jesus and the apostles were deceived when they made quo- tations from the Old Testament and aseribed them to Isaiah, Jeremiah, Habakuk, ete. Thesetgreat men style themselves higher crities and endorse the theory of evolution, that humanity is undergoing a pro- cess of evolution from monkey-like- ness up to God-likeness, Moses, They are thus indirectly telling their people that there was not fall from God's image and likeness, that there was no sin committed, no sentence for sin, no Redeemer from sin and its sentence and that restitution is not to be hoped for nor to by desired.— Acts 3:19-21, Surely the Great Teacher's adviee not to follow blind leaders was more needed than in our day.

While the Scriptures forbid God's people to judge one another, they do |} commend to us another kind of judg- ing. We are not to judge in the|]\ sense of condemning, sentencing, etc., those who claim to be honest, sincere, reverential, merely because they differ from what we would ex- pect; God knows their hearts and to his own Master each servant must stand or fail eventually. But while not condemning the heart we are to judge of the out- . ward conduer, The parable which | jour Lord in his lesson ‘i..: the gathering of grapes from | bramble bushes illustrates this point. Cod's people are likened to the grape vine, which produces no thorns but luscious clusters of fruit. Mankind in general are likened to bramble bushes, ready to scratch, tear, in- jure on the slightest provocation, and are merely self-sustaining, no: bringing forth fruitage that will be a blessing to others, We are to dis- of tinguish between such characters and God's people: “By their fruits shall ye know them.” It is sald that at times a bramble bush will be entirely covered by a vine, so that the grapes would ap- pear to be eoming from the bush. We are not to be mistaken. A good tree cannot breing forth an evil fruitage, neither ean an injurious tree bring ferth a good fruitage. The lesson, applied to humanity, is that those who are really God's people cannot live injurious lives or fruitless lives; they must be fruit bearing else they ave none of His. And should we find some of the fruits of the spirit com- mingling with a thorniness of life, an evil, injurious disposition, we are to assume that in some sense of the word the fruitage is merely put on and does not belong to the bramble- bush character, It is therefore useless for any man to tell us that he has given his heart to the Lord in fullness of consecra- tion and that he has received the sanctifying influences of the Holy Spirit and yet find him rejoicing in sin, taking pleasure in iniquity, in- justice, selfishness and a course of life injurious to his neighbors., If his heart be changed the results will be manifest in his daily life, because “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” The House on the Rock. The closing parable of this lesson is in full tune with its opening verse. In the first parable the blind who trust to the leadership of the blind fail into the ditch. In the parable now before us the picture is that of a householder. If he be wise he will not build upon the shifting sands, which either a wind storm or a rain storm may undermine, and cause a| wreck, but he will seek a solid, rock | foundation which will endure the! storm. | This parable illustrates two classes of believers. Both hear the Great| Teacher’s instructions and both be- lieve and both rear faith structures| and entertain heavenly hopes tut | the one is more prudent, more care- ful than the other. One seeks for doctrines and principles of thy Divig Word, and builds his faith strucongpes upon that true foundation which Diving Revelation affords. His tainy cannot fail whatever storms may s 'S respect- th 1 (&1l th Se BN he sail] it is surely founded on the Di- vine promises unwise The believer o much for granted and n o the traditions of the ¢ X creeds of the Dark Ase the ne having a proper foundation ¢ s faith and his works. 1In t} of sires: orm with wh all such will find the f tion swept will from under 1l » will be a ¢ THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAKELAND, FLA, JUNE 8, 1912, el To All Whom These Presents May shall, A.
