LESSON IV
,'i'HE TEMPTATION OF JESUS
Matthew 4: 141; Mark 1:12, 131
Luke 4:1.13
A'RINTED TEXT, Matthew 4:1-11.,
GOLDEN TEXT.—For we have
. o . one that hath been in all
)points tempted like as we are,
rot without ain, Hebrews 4:15.
tHE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time. -The spring of A.D. 27.
Place.—A wilderness, probably
on the west side of the Jordan,
though its location is not defin-
itely known.
Satan's Desire
1. "To be tempted of the
devil." Satan's deep and con-
stant desire, as the enemy of
God, !s to thwart God's purposes,
to prevent God from saving mon,
and to make it impossible for the
Kingdom of God to be fulfilled.
2. "Arid when he had fasted
forty days and forty nights, he
afterward hungered." We should
always bear in mind that our
Lord's temptation occurred imme-
diately after His baptism, that is,
immediately after the hoar He
was officially anointed by the
Holy Spirit to undertake his great
ministry. The number 'forty'
frequently recurs in the scrip-
tures in relation to circumstances
not altogether dissimilar from this
event. •
3. "And the tempter came and
said unto him, If thou art the
son of God, command that these
atones become bread." The temp-
ter puts the matter in this form
In order to invite Jesus to estab-
lish the fact by a miracle and in
order to intonate that he certain-
ly has the right thus to satisfy
his hunger, Jesus was tempted
to work a miracle in order to re-
lieve his hunger. But he never
performed miracles merely for
his own benefit; they were all
wrought to do good to others, and
to attest his divine mission.
4. "But he answered and said,
It is written, Man shall riot live
thy bread alone, but by every
;word that proceedeth out of the
mouth of God." In each of the
three temptations, *Christ answers
16y quoting' a passage from the
Old Testament Scriptures. What
as this word of God which we are
to' flash through all falsehood
dike the thrust of a gleaming
sword? It is the word of divine
ilmlth; it is the word of divine
promise, laying God's strengthen-
ing comfort upon the heart. Note
parefully that the moment Christ
!wields the` Word of God,. Satan
;Ceases a particular temptation.
5. "Then the devil taketh him
into the holy city;and he set him
on the pinnacle of the temple,
6. and saith unto him, If thou art
the Son of _God; cast thyself
down; for it is written, He shall
give his angels charge concerning
thee: and, on their hands they
shall bear thee up, Lest haply
:thou dash thy foot against a
atone." Jesus stands on the lofty
pinnacle of the Tower, or of the
Temple porch. He is surveying
the scene and by his side is the
tempter, watching him. This was
the time to act upon his trust.
But so to have done would have
been not trust—far less the hero-
ism of faith—but presumption.
Such temptation as was here pre-
sented to our Lord can oecur in
our own Iives.
Unity of Scripture
7.• "Jesus said unto hitt, Again
it is written, Thou shalt not make
trial of the Lord thy God." Once
again our Lord turns to the arm-
ory of the Word of God. Only
as we enter into the unity of
Scriture, as it balances, completes
end explains itself, are we armed
against error and delusion, excess
or defect,
8, "Again; the devil taketh him
unto an exceeding high moun-
tain, and showeth hint all the
kingdoms of the world) and the
glory of thein: 9. and he said .unto
him, all these things will I give
thee, if thou wilt fall down and
worship me." The one thing that
Satan' wanted was so simple to
abate yet so vast in its implicit-
tions, namely that Jesus should
fall down an
d Worship him, Whom
we worship, we serve. By hewing
down we submit to The one before
whomwe throw ourselves pros-
trate. Should Jesus have bowed
his knee to this monster of in-
iquity, then he would have come
under Satan's power.
Two Principles
10. "Then saith Jesus unto
him, Get thee hence, Satan: for
it is written, Thou shalt worship
the Lord thy God, and him only
shalt thou serve." This passage
reveals the two fundamental prin-
ciples dominant in our Lord's life,
namely: an intimate knowledge of
what the will of God is in any
particular crisis of life, and, 805-
ondly, a determination to .adhere
to the will of God, no :natter
what the cost might be, When
these two principles are domin-
ate in the life of any believer,
that life is safe from collapsing
in the hour of temptation; that
site will be one constant triumph,
of inab'eaeing strength . and of
Abiding joy.

Winston Churchill •
Values Punctuality
Premier Winston Churchill is
one of the world's busiest men
and to such leen punctuality is
a virtue` Concerning this virtue
Mr. Churchill has expressed him-
self as in agreement with the
sentiments of a friend who could
never understand the point of
view of persons who make a habit
of being 10 minutes late for each
appointment throughout the day.
Mr. Churchill expressed the
belief that in the case of a late
start the only straightforward
course is to cut out one or two
of the appointments altogether
so as to catch up, the theory be-
ing that it is better that one
notability .should be turned away
expostulating than that nine de-
putations should each fume for
10 minutes in a stuffy ante-
room.
Dog—No Asthma
No Dog—Asthma
Scientists may — and do -
snicker in their beards all they
please, but here is J. R. Mosley's
story and he's sticking . to it:—
Five years ago Mosley, suffer-
ing from asthma, borrowed a
Mexican chihuahua from a friend
and gave it the run of the house.
His asthma disappeared.
But the friend's asthma re-
turned, so Mosley had to return
the dog. Between asthmatic
gasps, he ordered a chihuahua
from Mexico.
The dog arrived, and Mosley's
asthma departed. But the dog
died, and the asthma returned..
So he .ordered still another chi-
huahua flown to Memphis, -
Pfft — away went the asthma.
• Then the new dog ran away.
Presto, asthma! The other day
the chihuahua returned. Pronto,
no asthma!

Russia's Second
Line of Defense
Groups of Men Behind Front
Line Put Essential Services
In .Working Order'
The enthusiasm and skill of the
Rusalau workers, who form the
second line of the great Russian
army pushing back the Garman
troops, has been paid tribute to by
a British broadcaster, Describing
the setup of the Russian arluy he
said that immediately behind the
front line army there was the eng-
ineering and technical department,
the rallworker gangs and groups
of others whose •job it is to get
into working order all means of
communication, railway stations,
bridges, and the most essential •ser-
vices.
"'.Choy call them second lice sol-
diers and they are filled with the
same high spirit as 'their brothers
in front of them," said the speak-
er. "The railways are put in order
with a speed that is almost unne-
11eva.blc, In cue very important
spot, hall a mile of destroyed rail-
way lines were repaired in three
Maim. At an important junction

Fires were lit to give light and
warmth for the men working on
the trains and other equipment.
Interminable supply columns move
steadily along,
"Behind • the technical and sup-
ply departments, wane the people
who used to live in the villages and
towns. They casae back most of.
them to find their homes destroyed
or their property stolen. Govern-
ment committees are there to give
immediate assistan-ce and within
two or three weeks life begins to
return to normal."
The latest call for salvage war
service by the Boy Scouts is a
request for the collection of bottle
caps by Scouts as far east as Que.
bac City and Ontario as far west
as Windsor. The caps, known by
the trade. as "crown corks" are
needed both for metal and the
cork lining.

A new Good Turn by :the Boy
Scouts of Canada for their bro-

the official Dominion Scoot pub-
lication, The Scout Leader. This

One of the outstanding forms
of war service rendered by the
Boy Scouts of Canada during'
1941 was the "shore leave" camp
maintained near Halifax, on the
"Lone Cloud Scout Reserve" for
the benefit of sailors of the eon
voy fleet. Some 1,500 ratings
from ships of all types were given
several rest days ashore, for
which the warmest appreciation
was 'expressed by men and offi-
cers.. In a number of eases ap-
preciation' ;took the additional
form of a substantial donation
from a ship's canteen fund, voted
by She men themselves. •
The sailors were accdnunodated
in eight Adirondack shelters, an
officers' Mut and a mess hall com-
plete with galley. Three of the
eight shelters were paid for re-
spectively by the Canadian Gen.
oral Council, the Scouts of Mon-
treal and the Halifax Rotary
Club. Contributions' toward
other shelters were made by a
nun/her of • Scout Groups in dif-
ferent parts of the Dominion, and
the balance of the building cost
was taken care of by ITalifax' Dis-
trict.
The first party to visit the camp
were men from an armed mer-
chantman, and these were follow-
ed from week to week by detach-
ments from battleships, cruisers, !,
destroyers, submarines, and a hos-
pital ship. One mixed party
comprised crewmen from Free
French and British corvettes.
The men enjoyed tlhemsclves
swimming, rowing, sailing, foot.
ball and softball. leather oddly,
from the layman's point of view,
rowing about the lake in fisher-
men's dories was afavourd sport.
Tramping through the woods also
was popular; and several of the
sailors "lost their bearings" for
some hours, but were found by
search parties, none the worse for
the experience.
