Even the officers of. the chief priets and Pharisees who were sent to arrest Him were afraid to Iaty hands on Him, and came baclk, ex­ plaining, “Never man spake like this man” (John 7:46.) “I am the light of the world,” said the Lord .John 8:12). To the Pharisees, Ho said: “Ye are from beneath; I am from above; ye are of this world; I am not of this Avorld. I said, therefore, unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am He, ye shall die in your sins” (John 8: 23, 24.) He claimed sinlessness when He said, “I do always those things that please Him (God)” QJonn 8:29.) And that brings us to this week’s lesson which tells us that “As He spake these words, many believed on I-Iim.” But, were they truly believ­ ing, with saving faith? The Lord evidently saw that they were not, He said to these Jews: “If ye continue in My word, then are ye My disciples maced; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” IThis offer from the Lord made them indignant. Proudly they reminded they never in bondage to any then, shall And now the Lord ing, cutting word for fully cutting, that they might be saved. Apparently they had no con­ sciousness of real spiritual need, no consciousness of then’ own sinful and lost condition; and the ord. said tinto them; “Whosoever committeth Sin is the servant of sin .... If the Son, therefore, shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed,” The proud Jews did not like to bo told that they were slaves of sin. No man likes to bo told this, But it Whs time of thorn, it is time of every man by nature. "For all have sin­ ned, and come short Of the glory of God,” (Rom, 3:23), therefore all are servants of sin. The Gospel or G-ood News of salvation is humiliat­ ing to the pride of man, It must humiliate before it can save. Unless we are ready to take the place of were children of could He say be made free”? to Him that Abraham, man; them how, “Ye had a search­ them—merci- lost sinners, God cannot save us. The Lord said to those Jews: “I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill Me, because My word hath no place in they reminded Him. our father." And the them by I-Iis words of “If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the work of Abraham.” They were not doing the works of Abraham; he was a true and humble, believer, living in entire and utter dependence upon God, his life ex­ pressing his faith, which “was reck­ oned to Abraham for righteousness” (Roni., 4:9). The rest of this long chapter sets down faithfully the words of unsaring condemnation that citnie from’the lips-of the Lord Jesus Christ and exposed the empti­ ness of the religious profession of His fellow Israelites. When the Lord told them they were not doing the works of Abra­ ham, but the deeds of their father, sneeringly, they answered: “We be not bom of fornication; we have one Father, even God.” This may have been intended as a slur on the birth of Christ; the report of His virgin birth, doubtless, was known, and this may have been a blasphemous denial of it by the Jews, The Lord now plainly told them; “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your fathers ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning . . . lie is a liar, and me rather of it. And because I tell you flie truth, ye believe Me not.” The Jews stormed and raged against Him now, accusing Him of being devil-possessed. When the Lord quietly denied this, and said that those who kept His saying would never see death, the Jews re­ torted that' Abraham was dead and, they asked the Lord, “Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead?” Christ’s reply was amazing and true: “Your father Abraham rejoic­ ed to see My day; and he saw it, and was glad . . , Verily, verily, I say unto you, before Abraham was, I am.” They tried to stone the Lord to death then, but His time had not yet come; He passed through their midst and they could not touch Him. He urns tlieir Messiah, their Sav­ iour, their best friewet, He could have delivered them all from the slavery of sin. He can deliver any man today from the ssavery of any sin — intemperance, lust, hatred, murder, worry; all and every sin. But many a man, like those jews, rejects the offer of this Friend and Saviour and lives and lies in the eternal slavery of sin. Office: Carling Block EXETER, ONT. Closed Wednesday Afternoon. y DR. E.
