LESSON IV, SECONI5 QUARTER, INTER- NATIONAL SERIES, APRIL 23. Tent of the Lesson, John sty, 1-14. aleatory Verses, 2.4-t o]den Text. John xiv, 6 -Commentary Prepared by the Rev. D. M. steams. (Copyright. 1S$9. by D. > . Stearns.] 1. "Let not your heart be troubled; y4 believe in God, believe also in Mo." It is the fast night before His great tigony, and one would think that He would need some one to comfort Him, but with entire self renunciation He comforts these weak ones and us through them. He teaches us that In the world we shall have tribulation (xvi, 33), but we need not have our hearts troubled. In Math. xxiv, 0, Ho says: "Ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that ye be not troubled." In Iso. xxvi, 8, the secret of perfect peace is shown to be a mind staid on Him. 2. "I go to prepare a place for you." When on earth, He lived for us and died for us and rose again. Now in heaven He ever liveth to stake intercession for us and, as Ho said, is preparing a place for us. W'o may not understand these many mansions now and just what they mean, but it should suffice to know that Ho who loved. no enough to give Himself for us and bear our sins in His own body on the cross le preparing a place for us in glory. It will be worthy of Him who prepares its 8. "I will come again and re vivo you unto Myself." He wants us with Him to sea and share His glory (chapter .xvii, 22, 24). Concerning Ills coning again see Acts 1, 11; I 'Mess. iv, 10; Ileb. ix, 28; Titus 11, 13; Rev. 1, 7-12. Do not think of His coming as death or the coming of the Spirit at Pentecost or any other event, but always as His literal personal return, first to the air for His saints and later to the earth with Bis .saints to set up Ills king - dam here on tiro earth with Israel as a center. 4. "And whither I go yo know, and the way ye know." Ho had often told them that Ito had conte from the Father and would return to the Father: Ile bad also told them that IIe wouid die and rise again the third day. So Itad they believed His words they might Itavo known much mars titan they did. To Iiimnt the going; to the Father was very real, for with the Father He had been from all eternity*. 0. "Lard, we know not." Thus said Thomas, who also after the resurrection said, "Except I shall see, I will not be- times" (chapter xx, 23). Ho knew not bo- caose he believed not. Some want to see, and somo want to understand before they 'will believe. Sueh not only grieve the Spirit, but Iose much personal joy. Ta them the Lord says; "Bo not faithless, but believing. Blessed aro they that have not seen, yet have bellcved" (chapter xx, 27, 20). 0. "Jesus saith unto him, I am tho way and the truth and the life." Ho is the new and living way (Heb. x, 20), in con- trast to all tho forms of the ceremonial law, and as the antitypo of all types and substance of all shadows. Ho is the truth, for God is the God. of truth (Ise.. lxv, 10), and His word is truth (John xvli, 17). In Him is life, and Ile is our life. He that hath tho Son haul life (,John i, 4; Col. iii,. 4; I John v, 11, 12), Eller° is no other way to heaven or to tho Father (Acts iv, 12). 7. "If yo had known Me, yo should have known My Father also, and from hence- forth ye know IIim and have soon Him." To know God is life indeed and peace and joy and a foretaste of heaven. It is better than all the riches or wisdom or might of this world (John aril, 8; Job xxii, 21; Jer. ix, 23, 24). How wiso are those who give themselves up to know our Lord Jesus Christ as revealed to us in the Scrip- tures, and thus to know tho Father! 8. "Philip saith unto Him, Lord, show us tho Father, and it suill.coth us." He bad said many such words -as "Tho Fa- ther sent Me," "Tho Father is with Me," "I and My Fathor aro ono," "I do always those things that please Him," and from such sayings they might have gathered that to know Him was t`o know the Father. 0. "He that hath seen Mo hath seen the Father." Ho is the usage of tho invisible God, tho brightness of His glory, and the express imago of His person (Col. i, 16; Hob. 1. 3). Shall wo over see the Father? We shall expect to and yet be satisfied if in the glory we see only, as John saw, on the throne one like tho appearance of a jasper and a sardine stone (Rev. iv, 8). 'Whom no man hath seen, nor can see (I Tim. vi, 16) may mean no mortal man. 10. "Believest thou not that I am in the Father and the Fathor in Me?" Then He adds that all His words and works were not His, but tho Father's. He takes no credit to Himself for anything. As to His words He says elsewhere that the Fa- ther gave Him a commandment what He should say and speak (xii, 40). It was the same with prophets and apostles; they were given by God the words which they should speak (Ex. iv, 12; Jer. 1, 7, 9; Ezek. in 7; iii, 4; Math. x, 20). 11. "Believe Me for the very works' sake." In the previous verse He asks it they do not believe that Ho is in the Fa- ther and the Father in Him, but now He commands them to believe it and calls upon tho works as evidence. In chapter t, 86-39, Ho says that the Father and His word and works all bear witness that He is what He says Ho is -ono with the Fa- thor, the Lord God of the holy prophets, mho Messiah of Israel, the Son of God. as is the Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace (Isa. ix, 0). 12. "Verily, verily, I say onto you, he that boliovcth on Me, the works that I do shall lm do also; and greater works than these shall he do, because I go unto My Father." Thus will be manifest the union of the believer with Christ, as His union with tho Fathor was made manifest. It is God who worketh in us both to will and to do of His good pleasure, and He will work in us those things which are pleas- ing in His sight (Phil. ti, 13; Hob. rill. 21). 13. "And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may bo glorified in tho Son." Wo aro supposed to ask only for those things which will glorify God. When the lanio man at the gate of, the teniple or silicas or others wero healed in the name of the Lord Jesus, then God was glorified in Hini. When :souls aro saved, God is glorified in Christ. When saved ones aro wholly sot apart for God, then Ho is glorified. When by Iris grace wo manifest at meek and quiet spirit under trials, Ho is glorified. 14. ,' "If he shall ask anything in My name. 1 will do it." I believe that the koy to these two verses with their seenth' ,1y unlimited possibilities is in the words ''in My name," which, as I understand it, means just what Ho would ask if lie was here. 1.n His mime suggests that are are about His business, seeking only This glory as Re ever sought the Father's glory.

Six-year-old Tommy was sent by bis eldest sister to the corner grocery to buy a pound of lump sugar. He played allies on tho way to the store, and by the time he arrived there he had forgotten what kind of sugar he was sent for. So he took home some of the granulated article. His eldest sister sent him back to the store to get lump sugar. After the proprietor of the grocery shop had made the change for the little lad, he engaged Tommy in con- versation: "Tommy," said ho, "I understand there is a new member of your family." "Yes, sir," replied the kid, "I've got a little brother." "Well, how do you like that, hey?" in- quired the groceryman. "Don't like it at all," said Tommy; "rather have a little sister." "Then why don't you change him, "Pommy?" "We would if we could, but I don't sup- pose we can. You see we have used him four days now!" Free and easy expectoration immed- iately relieves and frees the throat and lungs from viscid phlegm, and a medicine that promotes this is the best medicine to use for coughs, colds, iufiannnntion of the lungs and all affections of the throat and chest.

They seem to have been for tho most part little desirous of exercising tho privilege, the occasion of which was the election of a number of now magistrates. In the second arrondissement only three voted, and a similar number in the eighth. Much the salvo was the result in every arrondisse- ment, while in the Quartier Latin, which might bo thought the very sanctum s.Jno- torum of women's rights, not a single member of the fair sex took the trouble to vote. 0.O.
