Opposition To Christ We discover in this lesson the rising opposition to the Lord Jes- s • us Christ, which finally led to the cross. We are living in a• day when there is a similar rising tide of opposition to the Christ of the New Testament, and it is inter- esting to see here the character- istics and manifestations of such opposition which are parallelled by the antagonism against Christ which we find today on every hand. Christ won when he was on earth, and Christ will win in the conflict against him today. Sundiay School L ss*i LESSON XIV FRIENDS AND FOES OF THE KINGDOM—Matthew 13: 54- 16:12. PRINTED TEXT, Matt. 13: 54- 14: 4; 15: 29-31. GOLDEN TEXT — Ye are my friends, if ye do the things which I command you. John 15: 14. TIME—The rejection at Naz- areth occurred in the winter of A.D. 29; the earlier miracles of this story through the end of Chapter 14 took place in April A.D. 29; the later miracles and the rebuke of the Pharisees and Sad- ducees occurred in the summer of the same year. PLACE—Nazareth was the city where Jesus lived most of -his life, in northern Galilee. John the Bap- tist was martyred at Machaerus, on the north-east shore of the Dead Sea. The miracle of healing the daughter of the Syrophoen- ieian woman occurred near the cities of Tyre and Sidon on the Mediterranean coast; the walking on the water occurred on the Sea of Galilee. Rejected In Own City 54. And coming into his own country he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch ,that they were astonished, and said, "Whence hath this man this wis- dom, these mighty words? 55. Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joseph, and Simon, and Judas? 56. And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath tsd mthan n all these things? h were offended in him. But Jesus s s said unto them, A prophet n without honor, save in his own country, and in his own house. 58. And he did not many mighty works there because of their un- belief. Murder of John Baptist Matt. 14. 1. At that season Her- od the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus, 2. and said une to his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and :therefore do these pow- ers work in him. 3. For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife. 4. For John said :auto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her. The death of Christ's herald was a certain portent of the re- jection and crucifixion of the. King. (The Herod of our lesson, called Herod Antipas, was the son of Elerod the Great who ordered the slaughter of the babes of Bethlehem) , Herod, knowing that he was wrong in this marriage with his brother's (still living) wife, and too weak a roan to re- sist the will of Salome and her scheming mother, Herod gave or- ders for John the Baptist to be executed. Jesus immediately with- drew into a desert place on being Informed of the martyrdom of his forerunner by whom he had been haptized.• Miracles By the Sea 29. And Jesus departed thence, and carne nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and be sent up into the mountain, and sat there. 30. And there, carte unto him great multi- tudes, having with them the lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and they cast them down at his feet; and he healed them. 31. Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb speaking, the maimed whole, and the lame walking, and the blind seeing: and they glorified the God of Israel. Thousands of books have been written about the person and work and life and character of the Son of God, of whose, life the events of so few days are known; and yet we have not exhausted the infinite, unfath- omable wealth otthose days when he walked among us in the flesh. Still great multitudes come to hint toiiay moral cripples that they Might walk in the way of the Creamery Butter Production Rise November creamery butter pro- duction totalled 15,362,056 lbs., compared with 23,736,491 the pre- vious month, and 14,665,565 in November, 1938, the Dominion Bureau of Statistics reports.
