LESSON XIV
CHRIST AND LIFE AFTER
DEATH (EASTER) -- Mark
' 12:24-27; 1 Corinthans 15:50.58.
GOLDEN TEXT—Thanks be to
God, who giveth ue the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthlans 15:57.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time—The words here quoted
from )Mark's Gospel were spoken
by our Lord on Tuesday of Pas-
sion Week, April 4, A.D. 80. The
First Epistle of Paul to the Cor-
inthians was written about A.D.
66.
Place—The words here quoted
from one of our Lard's discourses
were uttered in Jerusalem. The
first Epistle to the Corinthians was
written at Ephesus.
God of the Living
24. "Jesus said unto them, Is It
not for this cause that ye err, that
ye know not the scriptures, nor
the power of God? 25. For when
they shall rise from the dead, they
neither marry, nor are given in
marriage. 26. But as touching the
dead, that they are raised; have
fie not read in the book of Moses,
iu the place concerning the Bush,
how God spake unto him, saying,
I am the God of Abraham, and the
God of Isaac, and the God of
Jacob? 27. He is not the God of
the dead, but of the living: ye do
greatly err." Jesus attributes these
proud men with error, and, he at-
tributes their error to their ignor-
ance. Though these men were full
of intellectual pride, they were
lacking in understanding of God's
Word and faith in God's power.
Jesus says that God can and will
raise the dead, and that in the
?igen life earthly relations will be
dissolved. Our domestic relation-
ships will no longer exist. Because
there is no more death, there is no
more need of marriage, but the
redeemed are, in this respect, as
angels. Jesus ends as He began,
saying that they erred and erred
greatly. It is God's Word which
tells o1 His power, and if we do
not know the one we shall not
believe in the other.
50. "Now this I say, brethren,
that flesh and blood cannot inherit
the Kingdom of God; neither doth
the corruption inherit incorrup-
tion." Flesh and blood describes
the human body as it exists in this
life. in this state the body cannot
enter heave n. Corruption is
found in our flesh and blood be-
cause of sin. Only when .sin to-
gether with its effects is complete-
ly removed from our bodies do
our bodies attain incorruption and
thus inherit God's Kingdom.
51. "Behold, I tell you a mys-
tery: We shall not sleep, but we
shall all be changed, 52, in a mo-
ment, in the twingling of an eye,
at the last trump: for the trumpet
WW1 sound, and the dead shall be
raised incorruptible end we shall
he changed.' Those living when
Christ comes will not fall asleep,
that is die, before they axe caught
up to be with Him. We 'shall be
changed in many ways. Our bodies
will be changed. Our minds will
be enlarged. Our very characters
shall be purified and we shall be
presented spotless before the
Throne of Grace.
53. "For this corruptible must
put on incorruption, and this mortal
must put on immortality." The
bodies in which we now live are
mortal. The bodies in which we
shall live will be immortal, free
from death, and the possibility of
death forever.
54. "But when this corruptible
shall have put on incorruption, and
this mortal shall have put on im-
mortality, then shall come to pass
the saying that is written, Death
le swallowed up in victory. 55.
G grave, where is thy victory? 0
death, where is thy sting?" Death
in only an instrument in God's
bands, and having done its tem-
porary work is thrown aside; and
resurrection steps in, and with its
supreme victory reverses all of
that which seemed a victory for
death.
56. "The sting of death is sin;
and the power of sin is the law."
la the law is seen the expression
of the will of God. 57. "But thanks
he to Gad, who giveth us the vic-
tory through our Lord Jesus
Christ." The victory here meant
le the victory over death and the
grave. Christ by his death bath
destroyed him that had the power
et death, that is, the devil, and de-
livered them who through fear of
death were all their lifetime sub -
;set to bondage. Christ deprives
eteath of all power to injure His
people. Christ not only gives us
this victorrebut He now creates
the soul after the image of God
sand repairs all the evils which
death had inflicted. He restores us
te that state from which sic had
east us clown. He rescues our
bodies from the grave and Yash•
ions them. like unto His body, even
by that power whereby he is able
to subdue all things unto Him -
melt (Phil. 3:21). Ilad it not been
for Christ, death would have
reigned forever over our own fallen
race; but Christ has given us the
victory; so that the believer may
even now say 0 death, whet'e is
thy sting? 0 grave, where is thy
Victory?
CANADIAN AIRMAN WINS GEORGE MEDAL
Sergeant Thomas B. Miller of Owen Sound, Ont. and St. John,
N.B., first member of the Royal Canadian Air Force to win the
George Medal gained the award for "prompt and extremely brave
action." This picture is the first to reach Canada since his exploit.
The 20 -year-old observer entered the flaming wreck of his crashed
bomber twice to rescue, first the pilot and then the wireless operator.
The latter was "sort of a human torch" according to Miller's own
words, but he managed to get him to the grass where he "rolled"
out the flames. Miller spent three months in hospital. The crash
followed a successful raid over Germany, when they were apparently
trailed home by a Messerschmitt which did not open fire until they
neared their home base. They suffered a burst "right on the nose,"
one engine "conked" and a crash landing was inevitable.
New Sentry System
Guards War Plants
Silent sentries, many times
more efficient than men in storm,
fog and darkness, are guarding
miles of wire fence enclosing
many of the nation's war -pro-
duction plants, the du Pont Comp-
any, in Wilmington, Del., dis-
closed.
They're robots.
Six months of tests have proved
the new sentry system the moat
efficient yet devised, the comp-
any said, with the robots "hear
lag" a person's whisper or the
snip of a wire -cutter, and passing
these warning sounds instantly to
a watchman at his post or to as
central guard station inside the
plant.
"The acoustic fence" apparatus
has the effect of multiplying by
many times the number of guards
on duty in aderse weather and
at night when guards would have
to be placed almost elbow to el.
bow to provide protection, du
Pont engineers said.
The robot sentinels can keep

Coal Is Becoming
Big I.J.K. Problem
Britain now is consuming far
more coal than before the war
and will have "a very difficult
task to meet next year's demands"
for the fuel, an official spokes-
man said.
He foresaw no difficulty for the
present winter, however, despite
increased consumption and said
there had been no stoppage•of es-
sential industries.
The home market, he added,
will absorb almost four and a half
tons a person next year, and "we
must produce 4,000,000 tons for
every week of the year."
No Near Collapse
Of German Morale
Germany Knows She Oa
Beaten But is Afraid Te
Quit
Germany today knows she ie
beaten but continues to fight with
undiminished fury in an effort to
postpone as long as possible the
Gene of post-war reprisals, accord-
ing to Alex Dreier, N.B.C. corres-
pondent and last reporter to leave
Berlin before war was declared.
"I saw the first crack in Ger-
many's morale when the blitz vic-
tory over Russia, which Hitler had
promised, failed to materialize,"
Dreier writes in the current issue
od The American Magazine. "As
relations between Washington and
Berlin grew more tense, I saw the
widespread uncertainty of victory
turn into a conviction of defeat.
"On the eve of Pearl Harbor,
Germany had been so undermined
with hopelessness that even Nazi
officials talked openly of their
fears of ultimate disaster. I don't
mean that the Nazi regime is about
to crack up. Far from it. I've
seen its fighting machine and it is
still magnificent despite losses on
the eastern front. In fact, recent
setbacks have given Germany a
will to fight with a new ferocity.
Little Fellow Afraid
"The little fellow under Hitler
is afraid of what will happen to
him after he stops fighting. I talk-
ed with Germans who believe that
a murderous horde of aveng-
ers — downtrodden Russians, Poles,
Czechs, Serbs, Norwegians, Bel-
gians, Danes, Dutch and French
—will swarm over Germany once
military operations have ceased. A
Nazi officer told me that if Ger-
many is defeated 30 million Ger-
mans will die—and not on the bat-
tlefield."
Mr. Dreier says that today the
average German faces the war like
this:
"We've knocked over nine coun-
tries in Europe and what has it
got us? Our food isn't better and
our clothes are worse. Something
has gone wrong in Russia and now
we've got the United States against
us, too. We'll be licked in the end,
but can't quit."
,fir. Dreier reports that after two
and a half years of war, Germany
is rife with anti -war and anti -Nazi
sentiment, but he warns that "there
is no immediate than e of interna]
collapse in Germany."
