Zurich Herald, 1940-11-28, Page 6LESSON IX AN EXACTING DISCIPLESHIP. -- Luke 9. PRINTED Tre-XT, Luke 9: 49-62. GOLDEN TEXT, --No man, having put his hand to the plow, and look- ing baok, Is fit for the kingdom of GocJ, Luke 9: 02. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. ---The commission of the twelve apostles occurred in the autumn of A.D, 28, the immediate subsequent events iu the winter of A.D. 2S, 29, the confession of Peter and Christ's transfiguratiou in the autumn of A.D. 29; Christ's journey through Samaria took place in Nov- ember and December A.D. 29. Place.—Tbe Twelve were cone• missioned in Galilee; the events recorded in 9: 10a took place in Capernaum; the feeding of the five thousand is to be located in Beth aaida, at the northeast end of the I5ea of Galles; the confession of Peter and the subsequent teaching are to be located in Caesarea Phil- ippi; the transfiguration probably occurred on Mount Hermon; the events recorded in verses 52 to 56 occurred iu Samaria; the conclud- ing teachings reported in the re- mainder of the chapter were utter- ed on the shares of the Sea of Gal- ilee. In this lesson we may gain a profound conception of what might be called the centrality or the ab- solute supremacy of the Lord Jesus Christ: Christ here reveals himself as supreme over his disciples; he shows himself the central figure upon every occasion when a great need arises, because of his ability to meet that need; he is the one Person men ought to believe as the Son of God; he is the one who is supremely worthy of our absolute devotion. The Gospel Ideal The ideal of the gospel received through Re perfect incarnation in Jesus Christ is not that we should be ministered unto, but that we should minister, bear one another's burdens, love one another, prefer one another, pray for one another, edify one another in the Lord. Luke 9: 49. And John answered and said, Master, we saw one cast- ing out demons in toy name; and we forbade him, because he follow- eth not with us. 50. But Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against you is for you. Even outside the circle of the per- manent disriples of Jesus there were meu in whom his word and his works had called forth a mir- aculous power. These sparks, which fe1I beyond the circle, had made flames burst forth here and there away from the central fire. Purpose of Christ's Coming 51. And it came to pass, when the days were well-nigh come that he should be received up, he stead- fastly set his face to go to Jerus- alem, and sent messengers before his face: 52. And they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him. 53. And they did not receive him. because his face was as though he were going to Jerusalem. 54. And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we bid fire to come down from heaven, and consume them? 55. But he turned, and rebuked them. 56. And they went to anoth- er village. The concluding twelve verses of this chapter of Luke's Gospel give in some detail that which is found more briefly iu hhlatt. 3: 18-22, and Mark 10: 1, This begins what is commonly tail- ed the Peraeau (ministry of our L o r cl, which commences with Christ's final departure from Gal- ilee, here noticed, and ends with his final arrival in Jerusalem. John and James here forgot of what spirit they were, the spirit of both the Old and the New Testaments, and gave way to fleshly desire for revenge. While we must disapprove of the spirit here of the two dis- ciples, as the Lord certainly did, yet we must recognize that their request only sprang from their burning zeal It pest have surpris- ed James and John, when Jesus re- buked them. It is true that the village rejected Jesus; but we must ask, Had any- special • effort been made to win them to ,(esus? liad the gospel been preached to them? We must answer no. Worthlessness Of Excuses 57. And as they went on the way, a certain man said unto him, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest. 58, And Jesus said unto him, The foxes have boles, and the birds of the heaven have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to` lay his head. 59. And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lewd, suffer me first to go and bury my father. 60. But he said unto him, Leave the dead to bury their own dead; but go thou and publish abroad the kingdom of God. 61, And another also -said, I will follow thee, Lord; but first suffer me to bid farewell to them that are at my hoose,. 62, But Jesus said unto Jit. No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking ,back, fit for the kingdom of God. T1i3 remarkaible passage 10 not to be U.S.-Canadian Defence Board at Vancouver Mayor Fforella L. La Guardia, of New York, and Col. 0. M. Biggar, United States and Canadian chairman, respectively, of the per- manent board on defence, are shown as they mounted the city hall steps at Vancouver, where the joint board held a conference during its tour of the L.S.-Canada Pacific coast. On hand to greet them was Dr.. H. L. Keenleyside,, joint secretary of the board fcr Canada; shown with back to camera. round in any of the other Gospels, and is a remarkably rich paragraph for careful study if space allowed. Three types of men are seen iu the presence of the enterprise of Jesus, attracted to him, wanting to be loyal to him, desiring to be en- rolled under him, wanting to serve him. The first was a man attract- ed by Christ The second was a mau whom Christ called to cer- tain and definite relatir'ship with himself. The third was a man want- ing anting to serve Christ, but postponing his service. Christ's call is super- ior to the highest and most beau- tiful of earth's obligations. That is the cross. Christ had flashed upon him the light of a tremendous en- terprise, the enterprise of preach- ing the kingdom of God; and that demanded the abandonment of the earthly tie when it conflicted with the call of the Lord. Stones From Sky Stones are more mysterious than people think. Mr. Williaria Barber, of Iken Cliff, Suffolk, England, has grown stones by watering them every day. They- increase heyincrease in size at the rate bf three -sixteenths of an inch every year. The model of a stone bull in Southern India, anointed with oil regularly by worshipful na- tives, grows constantly in size. Because of this, it is credited with having life. In the West In- dies, it sometimes rains stones. Quartz pebbles fall down from the skies without warning, then stop suddenly. Nobody has. ever explained this phenomenncn, for there isn't any quartz in the vi- cinity. • "WHAT'S NEW"? You learn about the latest foibles and gadgets in the feminine world a program of women's features by Bernice Burns, the personality girt, when you dial in "What's New" --- which is heard over CKOC each Monday, ii'eduesday and Friday morning at 9.15. Miss Burns swatches the trends in the women's world and is always able to report ---- What's New. The latest quirk in fashions -- new materials — novelty jewellery —trends for the comiug season — new books for women — and up to the minute reports on women's ac- tivities everywhere. All these com- bine to make a feature specially designed for the feminine ear — a feature that every sass from seven to seventy will enjoy. Make 9.45 on Mondays, Wednes- days and Fridays resting time — and tune in CKOC to hear Bernice Burns and What's New: THEY LIKE. IT OVERSEAS When the Canadian troops in England were questioned as to what Canadian radio program they would like to hear in England, one of the first programs they men- tioned was the "Happy Gang." This is proof of the appeal of this com- pletely happy and generally screw- ball session with Bert Pearl, Kath- leen Stokes and the rest of the happy crew, We think it's a good sign that Canadians still get a laugh out of sheer nonsense' and as long as Canada's soldiers can laugh, this Dominion need have no fear. It grill take more than Hitler to make Canada's warriors lose their sense of humour. The "Happy Gang" is heard over the CBC chain each week -day afternoon at one (daylight). AROUND THE DIAL We like the story about the would-be musician who appeared at an audition -- played a piano number — and then blandly in- formed the program director it was absolutely original. "Shake Mister," said the radio man, "I never thought 1'd see the day I'd be face to face with Beethoven!" Last Sat.:rday night the old mas- ter was back with the NBC Sym - 'Zany for the weekly program at 10.35 — for as the big second hand on the clock neared the deadline Arturo Toscanini, world-famous con- ductor, took the podium. Toscan ini's presence, means something to symphony .musicians — for it_ was obvious Saturday night that the members of the orchestra were just a little more keen and getting just a trifle more out of their efforts. If you like the best inmusic, you should dial in this splendid Pro- gram — heard in this part of On- tario from 1120 on the radio dial. For the Kiddies Santa Claus 15 on the air each Tuesday, Thurs- day and Saturday night at five o'- clock (daylight) from CFRB and CKOC. Record.

Death Rate In Ontario Cut Down 20 Per Cent Since 1935 - New Provincial Control Policy Results Shown in First Survey Report The tuberculosis death rate in Ontario has dropped 20 per cent since 1935, a degree greater than in any other province, according to the first survey issued by the De- partment of Ilealth since the new tuberculosis control policy, found- ed on 1938 amendments to the San- itoria for Consumptives Act, came into effect in July of that year. Premier Hepburn recently indi- cated the results of the new policy had almost exceeded expectations. As Treasurer of the Province, he had given strong backing to Health Menister Harold J. Kirby, Deputy IYIi.uister Dr. B. T. McGhie and de- partment heads in the development of the program. STILL SECOND DEATH CAUSE Dr. G. C. Brink, director of the division of 'tuberculosis preventioh, only recently in the moderate tone of the medical man, advised "the trend in Ontario certainly gives reason for present encouragement and hope for the future:" He add- ed: "However, it should he observ- ed that tuberculosis is still the sec- ond cause of death iu Ontario in the age group 15-39 years, being exceeded only by accidents." The new policy was drafted fol- lowing - a survey of the tuberculosis situation by the division of tuber- culosis prevention which was estab- lished in 1935. SANATORIUM TREATMENT HELPFUL It found that not more than 50 per cent of those dying of T. B. had hadthe benefit of sanatorium treat- ment. Only 50 per cent of those for whom sanatorium treatment was advised had entered sanitarium within one year of discovery, It was found that in some sections of the Province, the T, B. incidence and death rate were double that of • the average for the Province—for example, the IOastern Counties. In certain of these sections, the de- gree of hospitalization was "deplor- ably inadequate," There was a lack of diagnostic facilities in certain sections, as well as g lack of treat- ment facilities and persons wbo had received maximum benefit from sanatorium treatment were des, charged with no assurance that the necessary post-santorium care' would be forthcoming.
