(Duke 21:19.) The Second Coming of Christ is a subject that many good Christian people avoid; but the Bible certain­ ly does not avoid t-his subject, nor did the Lord Jesus Himself. It is given far more prominence through­ out the Scripture, and especially in the New Testament, than any other ■doctrine. While there are some questions in connections with it that are difficult, and about which Bible teachers disagree, nevertheless there are certian predictions -about the Lord’s return that are so plain and simple that all can understand them. The two lesson chapters give some of Christ's own teachings about His return. If we would do the best possible .building for the future, we shall seek to learn Christ’s own program for the Church during this age of grace between His first and second advents, and live according to that program. The apostle John spoke two urgent words to God’s people as to how they should live in view of the Lord’s return. He said: “And now, little children, abide in Him; that, when He shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be asham­ ed before Him at His coming.” And again: “Beloved, now are we the sons ■of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be; but we know that when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is. And every man that hath this hope in ihim purified himself, even as He is pure.” (I John 2:28; 3:2-3.) In this lesson, Christ told a par­ able of a man who planted a vine­ yard, sublet it to husbandmen, and then “went into a far country for a long time.” Those who say that Christ Himself was mistaken, be­ cause He expected His return to- be soon after His resurrection, overlook entirely this plain statement that the Lord was to be away “for a long time,” as He has been. The parable told of the sending of one servant after another to the hus­ bandmen, by the owner of the vine­ yard, and how these servants were 7oeaten, shamefully treated, and cast out. This was a description of what ■to the Old Testament prophets whom God sent to His vineyard, or Israel. Finally the lord of the vineyard said: “I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence Him when they see him.” With what result? men reasoned: “This come, let us kill him, THE EXETER TIMES-ADVOCATE 6S l/MAA erf JiidZCu.i.ety THURSDAY, MAY 21st, Use Be on the safe side Protect yourself and children DRINK A W.

S, of James Street Church was held on May 14th with the president in the chair. The meeting opened with singing ‘Take Time to be Holy' and the subject of the devotional period was “The Spirit of Jesus Challenges Immortal Conditions." Miss Hartnoil read the Scripture 'Lesson and offered prayer. Mrs. Wil­ liams sang “Our Blest Redeemer” very beautifully. During the business session arrangements were made to do the quilting and pack the bale on May 28th. The mothers and the children of the Baby Band will be entertained at the June meeting. The Corresponding Secretary read a letter from the Presbyterial Secre­ tary accepting the invitation to hold the -Convention of the Huron Pres­ bytery in James Street church in 193 8. Mrs. Maud Heywood then gave the report of the morning ses­ sion of the Convention held recent­ ly in Clinton-. She stated that it was the best and most inspiring conven­ tion in many 'years, and that the various reports showed good success in the work. Mrs. C. W. Christie reported the afternoon- session, stressing particularly Mrs. McCrae's address. Both of these reports were very fine, Mrs. Hiram Shapton then sang “Oh City of Beauty” and all enjoyed her solo. Following this Miss Monteith reviewed the fifth chapter of the study book on Africa Sihe gave a most interesting account of African life. She said that one of the first things the missionaries impressed on the natives was the value and dignity of work, and showed how -Christian teaching and example had (helped them in industry agriculture and health, as well as in family life and in all moral and spiritual things. Mrs. Page took the 6th chapter of the book, speaking on education. She gave a most inter­ esting description of an African school, telling how the children learn arithmetic by counting twigs and geography by drawing maps in the sand. The meeting closed with singing a missionary hymn. The husband- is the heir;' __, . .... .... ... ... that the in* heritance may be ours. So they cast him out of the vineyard, and kille<*"“ -him.”Here was a plain prediction of th^° death of Christ at the hand 'Of thyn.’ Jews. An- But the story is not over, The Lorjjiii asks a question: “What therefor of shall the lord of the vineyard do unace to them?” He answered His question: “I-Ie shall come and troy these husbandmen, and give the vineyard to others.” The Second Coming of Christ wm have two entirely different aspects. It will be a time of great joy and blessing for those who have earlier received Him as Saviour and Lord; and a time of stern judgment upon those who have rejected Him. We overlook too often the righteousness of Christ as we emphasize His grace and love. The Lord .added this word at the conclusion of the parable: “What is this then that is written, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is 'become the head of the corner? Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to pow­ der.” At this same time the disicples ask­ ed certain questions of the Lord. He had just told them that the glorious temple of Jerusalem, a very wonder­ ful piece of architecture and adorn­ ment -could one day They asked; “Master, these things be and there be when these come to pass?” Matthew 24:3 gives the question more fully: “Tell us, when shall these signs be? and what shall be the sign -of Thy coming, and of the end of the world (age.) The Lord answered these questions very fully plainly in- what is called the Olivet Discourse, spoken to His disciples on the Mount of Olives His answer looked forward some forty years, to the time of the des­ truction of the temple and city, and then down through the nineteen centuries that have already passed to the end of this age and His per­ sonal return. He predicted that there would be many coming ing, “I am Christ,’ against these. iFalse ing today. He predicted as the whole age, and ending of the age, four great signs: “Nation shall rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom; and great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines and pestilences.’ It is a significant fact that within one decade recently between 1912 and 19 22) there occurred the great­ est earthquake known to history, the greaest famine every known, the greatest pestilence ever known and the greatest war. Is it strange that thoughtful Christian people should believe that the coming of the draweth nigh? Astronomers are telling us unprecedented disturbances pheno’mens are occurring in the skies The Lord told His disciples: “And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress, of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for locking after those things which are coming -on the earth; for the powers of Heaven shall be shaken.” These signs are being fulfilled be­ fore our eyes, and the greatest of all signs, the restoration-, .of Israel to ilier promised land, which has not occurred before in the nineteen cen­ turies. The Lord continued: “And then shall they see the Son of man com­ ing in’ a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin come to pass, then look up, and •tift up your heads; for your redemp­ tion draweth nigh.” owthe d%ri.e’ sli;t in W.
