We find here: The hopelessness of mere ethical righteousness The deity of Christ. The way of salvation. The peril of riches. The God of the impossible. He was evidently one of the best, cleanest young men of high ideals of that day-f-or any day;. I-Ie was a young man of high standing and great wealth. (.See also ^lattliew 19:16-26; Luke 18: 18-27.) Luke calls him . a “ruler,” showing that he was a man of authority. He had man to separate riches. But the every one to give in their lives,some wealthy people who are doing this: Christ means more to them than their riches,. therefpre they can be trusted to administer riches to His glory and honor. “Take up the cross an'd follow Me’ is the way of salvation, and. the only way. Christ’ had not died when He spoke these words: I-Ie was looking ahead at His substitution­ ary death and at the union of all true believers with Him in that death. I-Ie gave a prophecy to the young ruler of what Paul sai’d later by inspiration; “I am crucified With Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me” (Gal 2: 20). .Having treasure In heaven means being richer than ^having treasure on earth that keeps us out of heaven. The tragic fact is that the young man would not do what the Lord said. He “wet away grieved:' for he lrad great possessions,” His ethical righteousness could not save him; it has never saved any man since A’dam fell. If any man kept the commanments perfectly he would be saved; but no man can keep them. He may do so in his outer actions; he cannot do so in his innermost heart life—such as having no other gods before God, for example. The unsaved man cannot do this; only one who has been born again, with the life from above, can really put God first. Then the Lor’d warned His dis­ ciples of the peril .of riches: “How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the Kingdom of God.” Let us remember that the Bible does not say, as so often mistakenly, quoted, that money is the root of all evil. It says something quite different: “The love of money is the root of all evil. It says something quite different: “The love of money is the root of all evil.” (I. Tim. 6:10.) Money can fee a great blessing when it is kept in its proper. place, never allowed to be first in the life or in­ terests. While riches are such a temiptation that they have kept many a man out of the Kingdom of Go’d, it is not beyond God’s power to save those who ’ are ..................... world’s goods, possible/’ said with God; for are possible.” 50 YEARS AGO Mr. E.

Then unusual question: what shall I do that 1 eternal life?” The word he used, means Teacher. It did his recognition of anything super­ natural in Christ, but only that He was a trustworthy human teacher. The Lord’s reply must have surpris­ ed hiy; instead of answering the question: “Why callest thou Me good? There is ^none good but One, that is, God.” Unitarians and others have quot­ ed this verse in an attempt to prove that Christ Himself said He divine, or God. But the does not say that. It was a ed to the young man not to word “good” lightly. But was not passage remind­ use the it must be read in the light of the many passages throughout the ’ Gospels from the lips oif our Lord Himself, and other passages In the Scriptures, which plainly declare that He was and is God. Nor did Christ in His question of the young man, deny that He was good. Elsewhere He challenged men to point out any sin in His life. (John 8:46.) Because He was wholly good He was, by His own reasoning here, God. The Lord then turns the young ruler’s attention to the divinely giv­ en commandments of Moses forbid­ ding adultery, murder, stealing, bearing false .witness, and the like. Matthew’s account adds: J“Thou shall love thy neighbor ..as . thyself.” There must have been a touch of pride in the young ruler’s, reply: “All these have I observed from my youth.” far as ed.
