I With 7 tubes wo Unnecessary Selling CostS‘ Samaritans were Israelites. When the Assyrian King Sargon took Samaria, the Capital of Northern Israel, into captivity he left many Israelites in their land and sent colonists there "from Babylonia, idola- tores, who intermarried with the Is­ raelites and mixed their idolatry with tile worship of Jehovah; from this degrading combination came the Sa­ maritans. It was not surprising that, in our Lord’s day, "the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans-’’ | There is significance in the fact that Samaritans come into spiritual prominence several times in the New Testament records, The parable of the good Samaritan shows one who exhibited the com­ passion and unselfish neighborly serv­ ice that were lacking in Jewish priest and Levite (Luke 10:30-37). A Samaritan leper, when healed by the Lord, alone gave thanks when nine other lepers gave none (Luke 17;12-19). A great revival occurred in Samaria under the preaching of Philip. (Afits 8:5-8). And in this week’s lesson is re­ corded one of the great experiences in history, the conversation between the Lord Jcstts and a sinful woman, a Samaritan, through whom a city­ wide revival by belief in Christ vas brought to pass. The most ordinary human incidents are used of God for extraordinary and eternal results. Our Lord, passing through the Province of Samaria, was "wearied with His journey/’ and rest­ ed by the historic well of Jacob, this being near a Samaritan city called Sychar* As the Lord sat there n ■woman of Samaria came to draw water front the well. These were the ordinary circumstances leading up to denationalized the extraordinary interview with eternal consequences to many, The Lord’s desciples had gone into, the city to buy provisions, and the Lord said to the woman, “Give Me to drink.” She expressed surprise that lie, being a Jew, should ask drink of a woman of Samaria. What follows ,i|. a wonderful study of the principles and methods of successful personal work in soul-winning. We can. use the Master’s methods today in win­ ning others to Him, and we may well study them with this, in view. The Lord said to the woman: “If thou knewest the gift of God and Who it is that saith to thee, Me to drink: thou wouldst asked of Him, and He would iven thee living water.” This led to a. conversation about sal­ ation, for moment later the Lord, ontrastittg the water that He could give with the water in Jacob’s well, said: ’’Whosoever drinketh of .this water shall thirst again; but whoso­ ever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.” Was the woman intentionally con­ tinuing to misunderstand the Lord, as though He were speaking only of water out of the ground? Her reply suggests this; then the Lord asked her to go and call her husband and come back again. “I have no hus­ band,” she said. And truly, answered the Lord, "for thou hast had husbands; and he whom thou hast is not thy husband; in saidst thou truly.” This supernatural knowledge cutting deep. The woman tried to change the subject and bring up a theological or religious question as to whether the Samaritans were right in worshiping God in the near by mountain, or the Jews in insisting cn Jerusalem as the place of wor­ ship. The Lord’s reply declared that "salvation is of the Jews,” but that the time was at hand when God could be worshipped in Spirit any­ where, knew Christ things, ing with her spoke the words: “I that speak unto thee am He.” As the-desciplcs returned from the city to the Lord, the woman hurried back to the city and told them there of her interview with this man who "told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?” It was this sincere, zealous testi­ mony of the woman that started the revival in Sychar. People left .the city and came to the Lord, "And many of the Samaritans of that city belived in Him for the saying c-f the woman, which testified, He. told me all that ever I did.” They pleaded with Christ to "tarry with them,” and He remained for two days, “and many more believed because of His own word.” The closing verse of the lesson tells us that something veliy real and wonderful and eternal had happened to the people of Sychar, for they said the woman: "Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard Him ourselves, and , know that this is indeed the Christs,, the Saviour of the World.” The record docs not tell us in so many words that the woman of Samaria, who evidently had been a notorious sinner, was saved, but can we doubt it? Her testimony was surely that of a saved soul rejoicing in her salvation and her. Saviour. Christ’s Gospei i.s for all: for the respectable, moral, religious leader and theologian and Pharisee Nico­ demus, who sought out Christ to ex­ press his approval of the Lord, and who found that, in spite of his much religion, he himself was not saved but needed to be born again; and for the outcast woman of the streets, with no morality no reputation, nothing respectable or religious to offer, but who also was saved on the same terms- Our wonderful Saviour can save the highest and the lowest, "that no flesh should glory in His presence” <1 Cor. 1:29) Professional Cards GLADMAN & STANBURY BARRISTERS, SOLICITOR®, Aft Money to Loan, Investment* Midft' Insnrance Safe-Deposit Vault for use *f f«l Clients without charge EXETER LONDON HENAAlft five now that was When the woman said she that when the Messiah or came He would tell thei$ all the man who sat there talk­ amazing CARLING & MORLEY BARRISTERS, SOLICITOR®, Rft LOANS, INVESTMENT®, INSURANCE Office: Carling Block, Blain Rftfift EXETER, ONT.
