Mr. James Dewar and Port Perry, Mr. James Golden Text: For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.— John 3:16. God’s declared plan that all men have it through the chosen people, of whom born To for w pie had to er peoples, things, “to in the midst And G=>d gave Israel, through Mose$, strict laws that should keep them sep­ arate from the sins and defilements and idolatry of other nations. Let us never fall into the mistake* therefore, of saying—as some do-— that Israel was narrow' and bigoted.1 and egotistical in setting herself apart from other nations. Tt is true that Israel fell into many sins, in spite of all that God did to keep her true to Himself; and among other sins she doubtless became proud and “super­ ior” in attitude toward others. But the laws for this nation’s separation from the rest of the world were di­ vine laws, not man-made, and it was. vital that they should be obeyed. And this must be taken into account as we study our lesson with the vision and command that came to Peter* Peter, as a Jew, had been trained in the Old Testament law of Moses, which was God’s law. Among other things, God had forbidden His pe'ople to eat certain meats; a long list of such unclean and forbidden foods is. given in Leviticus II. One day, Peter, going to the house­ top to pray, and becoming conscious of keen hunger, fell into a trance and “saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him,” in which were “all manner of four-footed beasts of the earth, and wild beasts,, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.” There came a voice: “Rise, Pet­ er! Kill and eat!” Peter’s reply came “Not so, Lord; for I have never eat­ en anything that is common or un­ clean.” In answer came the voice again from heaven: “What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.” Was Peter wrong, bigoted, fanat­ ical, to speak of these meats as utt* . clean? Not at all; Peter was simply obeying the law Israel had been up to this time. But God was teach Israel that, because of the death and resurrection of Israel’s Messiah, Jestis Christ, the Mosaic law had been fulfilled, and the newly born Church of Christ, consisting of both Jews and Gentiles who believed in Christ, was no longer “under the law, but under grace.” (Rom. 6:14). Peter learned his lesson. And when, that very day, a Roman centurion, Cornelius, sent messengers to Peter asking for help on the way to salva­ tion, Peter gladly went and preached Christ to them, saying: “Of a truth 1 perceive that God is no respecter of persons.” Little by little God taught the apos­ tles, who were believing Jews, that it was no longer necessary, or God’s will, that the ceremonial details of the Mosaic law should be kept, but that the way of approach to God for all men, both Jews and Gentiles, was by faith alone in the shed blood, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ as Israel’s Messiah and the Saviour of the world. So Paul wrote later: “For I am not ashamed of the Gos­ pel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” , God’s Son, Christ, was to fog after the flesh. carry out God’s great purpose orld salvation, Israel as a peo be separated from all otli* , in order, among other witness the unity of Go4 f universal idolatry;** of God under which commanded to live now beginning to ford, but how many will do A very pleasing Iven by Maggie Belle diri, accompanied at Alex.

No one who reads the Bible intel­ ligently would ever suppose that the Gospel was not intended for the whole world. The need is universal; the cure is universal. “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God,” and “the wages of sin is death.” Therefore, all men need salvation and life. And “the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” There is no other way of salvation or life. “Neither is there salvat: any other; there is none other under heaven, given among whereby we must be saved.” Our Golden Text, which Martin Luther called “The Little Gospel,” makes inescapably plain the universal­ ity of the love of God and His pro­ vision But God had planned, from the foundation of the world, to meet this need of all men through a single cho­ sen race or nation, set apart by Him­ self for that purpose. That nation was, and is, Israel, whom God calls the chosen people. When God called Abraham out of a heathen land to become the father of this chosen peo­ ple, He made a series of promises to Abraham, one of which was “And in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.” (Gen. 12:3.)
