Only as the Church Sunday, March 10—Matthew 8: 13 does this, in the fullness of the 17; 28: 19, 20; Acts 2: 38, 41; Ro- spiritual meaning of baptism, is she faithful to the parting command of her Lord. The rite for the new be lievars is to be continued until the Lord comes again, for He added, "and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the age." The first great obedi'nee to this emit -nand oceur•red on the day of Pentecost, after Peter's inspired ser, .,non, which convi.tted his hearers mightily of their sin and of their need of the Saviour whom they had crucified. As they cried out'to know w5tat they sheuld do, the reply came "Repent, and be baptized every ono of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the retni;;Aen of rrn-, •:net ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost," What a baptismal service that was! "About three thousand souls" were added to the bei every that day. And this means that some three thousand souls were added to Christ that day. For, as water baptism marked their confession of sin and repentance, and their faith in Christ as one who could save them and wash them in His precious blood free their sins as water never could, so the baptism of the Holy Spirit added them to Christ by uniting or joining them literally to Him. Now His ex- periences were their experiences., He in their behalf. and as their Sub- stitute had 'died unto sin; so they had died unto sin. He had been raised from the dead; so they were raised from being "dead in trespasses and sin" unto a new life, even the life of Christ. For the great and spiritual and eternal meaning of baptism is given in the lesson passage in Ro- man's 6. It is. to be feared that many, even among real Christians, have not realized the wonder and the preciousness of the fact there de- clared about them.

The forerunner of Christ, John the Bapt , t, vaned upon men to relent and be baptized with water. We read that men "were baptized of hint in Jordan, eon fessing their sins" (Matt. 3: 0): Jahn himself spoke a revealing word as to baptism in two aspects, when he said: "I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance; but He that cometh after me is mightier than 1 IIe shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost" (Matt. 3: 11). Here we have water baptism, and holy Spirit baptism, obviously not the same, al. t!'ough one symbolizes the other. Then came the sinless. Son of Cud to John to be baptized. Why? John himself asked that question, as he shrank back from baptizing Christ. The Lord replied: "Thus it becomcth us to fulfil all rigeteonsness." Christ came to fulfil the whole law: He hien tifled Himself with all mankind. A well-known crtmnre-ntator has said: "Jesus soueht baptiser partly to ex- press His sympathy with John's work partly to dedicate Him -1f to His own work, and partly to express Itis n.'cutrptisn of the sine of teen."
