TRUMBULL (dohtor of Tho Sunday Schoot ThnO0 ( OUR HEAVENLY FATHER Sunday, Jan, 6.—Exodus 34:4.7; Psalms 108:1-5, 10-14; Isaiah 40: 27 3J.; Matthew 6: 24-34; John 3: 3-6; 4: 20-24, 8: 40-47; Romans, 2:2-11, 8: 14-17; I, John 4:7-16. fessing Christians, have confused or Mistaken ideas on the Fatherhood of God. e It is a popular subject be- . 'cause of the mistakes that are so popular in connection with it. The wildest views and teachings, in pol- itics, sociology and religion, have much to say about the Fatherhood n of God, Almost every false prophet t in any realm of life bases his pro- T pages/Ida on some aspect of the al- leged Fatherhood of God, There- ,s‘ fore it Is of the greatest importance that'we understand what the 'Arms( of God taches about this, and what ;./. it does not teach. The ten different chapters of the N Bible from which the lesson pas- F sages are taken tell us about the m characteristics of. the Heavenly c Father; His attitude toward right- B eousness and toward sin; His love fi and grace and mercy and forgive- G ness; His infinite wisdom and under- a standing and strength; His holy jea- lousy; His tender thoughtfulness; h the severity of His judgment; His holy wrath against sin; His Perfect w love, because He is love. a The lesson passages also tell us j what those who are God's children may count upon from Him. They in tell us that not all men are child- ren of God, and thus be entitled to call Him Father. They tell us the („1 doom of those who are not God's di children, and the rich inheritance of those who are. Finally, we see th Je the outstanding and miraculous char- r acteristie of the true children of PG God. Even back at Mount Sinai, when an Israel was under the law, and Moses do the great Law Giver, was God's re- presentative, the charadter of the Heavenly Father was set forth ex- al actly as we find it in the New Testa- enent of grace. At Sinai Moses th learned of "The Lord God, merci- ful ed and gracious, long-suffering, and 10 abundant in .goodness and truth, a keeping mercy for thousands, for- fa giving iniquity and transgression and ho sin." But, also, as in the New " Testament, He was revealed as a do God "that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of wi• th the fathers upon the children," Them is the eternal character of ath God the Heavenly Father; both a merciful and just. Golden Text. Like as a father pitieth his child- ren, so 'the Lord pitieth them that fear Him. (Pea. 103:13.) Most people, including many pro- r David, the inspired Psalmist, re- ceived the same revelation concern- ing God as one "Who forglvech all thine iniquities; Who beaten al) thy diseases; Who redeemeth thy life from destruction," That marvellous 108rd Psalm tells us that, "as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward them that fear Him." But we must never overlook those last three words. The Scriptures •offer no hope of mercy from God toward those who efuse to fear Him. Isaiah heaps up the glorious de- clarations concerning this Father: 'There is no searching of His un- derstanding," and there is no limit o His strength and power. There - ore "they that wait upon the Lord hall renew their strength." Let us otice that 'this promise is limited o "those who wait upon the Lord," here is no promise of strength rom God to those who will not mit upon Him. The fuller revelation of the Hea- only Father is given in the New estament, but there is never the lightest contradiction between the ew and the Old. The Heavenly ether requires undivided love: "No an can serve two masters . Ye annot serve God and mammon " ut those who give God first place nd tha'c He cares for them as only od can care; He provides as only Heavenly Father can provide. There is no "universal Father- ood of God," but God's love is niversal in that it is offered to all bo will receive it, After Christ's dvent men did not need to come to erusalern to find God, for "the true orshippers shall worship the Father spirit and in truth." For "God a Spirit." This Gospel of John, however, de - ores some searching and cutting ings about God and men. Certain wish religious leaders, who were e enemies of Christ, said to Him oudly, "We have one Father, even od." Christ's startling answer was Ye are of your father the devil, d the lusts of your father ye will Not all men are children of God the Son of God says so. He says so, "If God were your Father, ye ould love Me." Only those are o children of God who have receiv- Christ as His Son and their Sav- ur. And the only way to become child of God is to be born into the rally of God, for 'Except a man be rn again, he cannot see the King - in of God," Therefore the new birth, which is 'ought by the Holy Spirit in all ose who receive Christ as Saviour, one enables men to become God's ildren and to seall min Father. ad is the Father only of those o have accepted His Son. Only ward those are His grace and seep and loving provision exercis- ; only upon them can these bo stowed.

Of English parentage, Mr. Tuckey was born in London Townehip, near Mel- rose where hs parents, the late Chas. and Mary Tuckey, settled when first married, where he lived until 12 years ago, whe he, with his Wile, took up their residence in Hyde Park Village. Many were the in- teresting. stories told by Mr. Tuckey of the pioneer days in this district. From a dense wilderness of bush he with his four brothers, helped their father to hew out a home for him. self and family, and on the same old homestead he and his wife in later years raised a family of 10 children. Until nearly three years ago, when he suffered a slight stroke which somewhat affected his speech, he still cherished a great delight in recalling and relating to old friends his many thrilling experiences of by- gone days. Especially interested was he in watching the construction of the Hyde Park highway some 3 years ago. With the exception of one child dying in childbirth, the family lived to nttend the golden wed ding of their parents some 9 years ago, held at the home of their dau- ghter, Rev, and Mrs. G. T.
