Suniay School Lesson JESUS BRIGS THE Goon , Sunday, 'Feb. 22. --Luke Golden' Text • He went throughout every city a,nd, village, preaching and sheaving the glad tidings of the Kingdoth of God. (Luke 8:1.) As the. late Dr, Griffith Thomas used to say, "The Gospel is not good advice; it is good news," There is a vast difference. Good advice tells us of something that has been done for tis, 'Another amazing chapter in Luke's Gospel is introduced by three verges; the first 6f these state four remarkable facts; The Lord 'Went throughout every city and village, He omitted none. Everywhere, Ile preached the glad tidings of the Kingdom of God. "Preaching and skewing the ,glad tidnigs," the Lord not only preadhed, but He also prod ticed, He declared and He denian- grated, He told the Goad News, Atid the twelve were with Him." In this wonderful Joan -toy with a, wonderful message, His chosen re- presentatives were permitted to ac, celnintilY WM: It is a hint of what Fla Wants Ills disciples to do to -day' He is with thein and they with Him, With the. Lord also were "'certain wonien" who are named and Whom He had healed ittvarious WayS; they "minptered Ulna Him of their Sul)? dente." The healed helped.

Fallowing this, extraordinary in- troduction the chapter' records BeV. en great teachings or events, *eat - ed to or resulting from glad tidings 1 Parable of the BOWQr, God's Word (onr Bible) is 'sown through,: ,ot the world a sseed is gown by the sower.

Those 'who "hear the Word of God, and do it' are closer to the Lord Jesus Christ than His own Mothr and brothers in their human relationship to 41m. 4. Winds and Waves Obey 'Christ, It is glad tidings that the Lord is in command of the natural elements, A. storm at sea could not injure His disciples while the Lord was with thein; when He spoke, the raging of wind and, water ceased, "and there was a calm". 4. A Demoniac Delivered. In Ga,, dare was perhaps the most vicious and. violent case of demon posses- sion recorded in the Scriptures. The man, naked, lived in the tombs with the dead; he could not be. bound by chains er fetters, but broke them from him. He Waa•Possessed by a legion of demons, who were terri- ied when the Lord 'came near. At the Lord's "command they had to loose7, their hold on the miserable man. With the Divine .permission they entered Into a herd lof swine, whicli at once "ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were. choked." The community did not like this sort of Good News, The miraculous deliverance of a fellear-humanbe- ing meant nothing to them, if 'a herd of twine 'was lost. So the whole, 'community came together and begged Christ to leave their neighborhood. They preferred swine to the Son of God. So .do all who prefer sin to Christ. 6.. Healed by a Touch of Faith. As a great crowd thronged about the Lord, a woman who bad suffer- ed 12 years from a disease, arid whom no human physician Could .heal came up ,behind' Him and "touched the border of His. gar- ment,:' and imaneditately she was healed. Discovering her, the Lord followed the act of Good News With a ward of Good NewS: "Daughter, be oflgeod *comfort; thy faith. 'lath made thee whole; go in peace." 7. The Dead ;13aised to Life, When the woman .was healed by a touch, the Lord had been on the way to the home of Jairus, ruler of a synagogue, whole little 12,year- old daughter lay dying. Before the Lord reached the house of, Jairus Word was brought: "Thy daughter is dead; ">trouble not. the Master." Now came Divine glad tidings in- deed, as the Lord said: "Fear not: believe onlyt and she shall be made whole." A great throng of mourners laughed the Lord to scorn when He sold to them: "Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth." ,r_or, we read, they knew that she was dead. But the Lord- put the unbelievers out of the house, took the little girl. by the hand, spoke to her and,, said, "Maid, arise. And her spirit came again, and che_,arosis straightaway; and He commanded to give her Meat.". Yes, death itself, man's great and last enemy, slinks away helpless be- fore the .command of Him who died and rose again that men Might have the gladest tidings that ever came from Heaven to earth, GREENWAY • (Intended for last week.)
