LESSON PASSAGE: Mark 12: 28-40. “Nor doth it lessen what he taught. Or make the gospel Jesus brought Less precious, that his lips retold Some portion of that truth of old; Denying not the proven seers, The tested wisdom of the years; Confirming with his own impress The common law of righteousness.” Whittier larger meaning and brought from them vital truths. Jesus was a mas­ ter in the art of illustration. His parables are memorable pictures. His language was simple. The words that he used could be understood by a child, and his thought also was clear although profound. He was able to meet his questioners on their own ground and used arguments with which they were familiar and whose force they admitted. In all his teachings there was beauty. Beauty of diction, imagery and truth His teachings flowed from a run­ ning spring; they were not drawn from a stagnant pool. The common people heard He was one ways, was thoughts and spirit. We can understand two say­ ings about him by his listeners “Never man spake like and “How knoweth this having never learned.” still are spirit and life, not pass away.

The Sadducees sought to entangle him by a question about the resurrection. The mental keen­ ness of Jesus is shown by his re­ plies. He was more than a match for any heckler. Intrigued by the replies a scribe or lawyer asked him which was the first commandment of all. Jesus replied by quoting the >Shema the well known word of Scripture from the Old Testament, because it was quoted in the homes, written upon phylacteries and over the door posts of houses. Jesus quoted this great teaching of the Old Testament at the time of supreme crisis in his career. His enemies were seeking his death, yet he gave first place In ethical and religious teaching to love God and to love man. The teaching itself was not original, 'but the way in which Jesus has made this law of love stand out as the ideal for conduct has been altogether unique Mr. A.

He was turned away from captious argument to an apprecia­ tion of truth. Real victory in a con- troversry is not a triumph of logic, but an increase in loyalty to truth on the part of both participants in the argument. When Jesus saw that this man’s mind had fastened upon the truth, he said, “Thou are not -far from the Kingdom of God.” The questioner was beginning to feel that the sacrificial system was an external religion, but that love to God and love to man required a spiritual transformation in one’s in­ ner life. This was a triumph in con­ versation on the part of Jesus. To change a questioner from one who sought to dig verbal pitfalls to one who was able to appreciate Christ’s emphasis upon love was a high ample of success in disarming position. ex- op- Healing Christ Gladly, 35-37. Why did the common people hear Christ gladly? There were severa' reasons. He spoke out his own ex­ perience, and did not rely upon the authority of quotations after the wearisome fashion of the scribes Jesus frequently used Old Testament quotations, but he filled them with The Social Gospel, This lesson begins with jesuS teaching the law of love and it closes with Jesus exposing the hypocrites and oppressors. Is there any contra­ diction between these two incidents? On the surface there is an inconsis­ tency, but not reality. It was love for the God of goodness which made Jesus righteously indignant against the hypocrisy of the Pharisees. It was love of his fellowmen which made Jesus rebuke those who in­ jured the weak. So true was he him­ self that he could not countenance the use of religion as a cloak for ■financial exploitation. In a tew brief words he pictured the scribes in theh’ flowing robes seeking publicity in the market place and even in the synagogues, ouflage of vealed the some very Jesus spoke such strong words of buke to churchmen amid the com­ paratively simple social conditions' of his day, what would he say about some of the practices of high finance in North America (including Cana­ da) during the last five years? A genuine Christian must be honest in business. Nor is that all!' he musti act in the spirit of love towards his' fellow men. Leslie D. Weatherhead says: “The words of Jesus frighten me—as they should do. (They awaken me, as they were meant to do. I am not nearly so awakened and frightened by St Paul, though his language is vehe­ ment enough. But what arrests me and brings a feeling of awe to my spirit is this: The most awful things that were ever said about sin were spoken by the gentlest lips in tire world, and in this sense also, ’if it were not so He would have told us.’ The doctrine of hell has been grossly exaggerated and dis­ torted by our great-grandfathers, but do not let us forget that the or­ igin of the language of myself that to turn his his eyes to becomes blind to them, was for that man to bring upon himself conse­ quence which were terrible beyond our present knowing.” Mr. John Snell’s barn on Carling St. narrowly escaped destruction by fire this week. On Sunday morning Mr. C. L.
