PRINTED TEXT, Luke 15:11-24. GOLDEN TEXT -Repent ye, and believe in the gospel, -Mark 1:15. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time -The first chapter of Isaiah was probably wi'it.t:en about 760 B.C.; that portion of Ezekiel which we are studying was writ- ten about 594 B.C.; the preaching of John the Baptist occurred, pri- marily, probably in the summer of A.D. 26; the messages or our Lord here given were uttered in Decem- ber, A.D. 29, and January, A.D. 30. The Day of Pentic•ost occurred at the end of May, A.11, 30. The Epis- tle to the Romans was written about A.D. 60. Place -The first cn.apter of Isaiah was written at Jerusalem; the book of Ezekiel was written in Babylon; the preaching of John the Baptist took place in the wil- derness country near the Jordan; the messages here recorded of our Lord were spoken In Peaea; the sermon of the Apostle Peter was delivered in Jerusalem; the Epistle to the Romans was written from the City of Corinth. The Son Goes Away 11. "And he said, a certain man had two sons: 12. and the younger of them said to his father, Pather give me the portion of thy sub - substance that falleth to 1ne. And he divided unto them his living. 18. And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together and took his journey into a far country; and there he wasted his substance with riotous living. 14, And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in. that eountry; and he began to be in want. 15. And he went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. 16. And he weld fain have filled his belly with the husks that swine did eat; and no man gave unto him." Our attention le fixed here on one of the two sons of a we'll -to-do and devoted father. He was the youn- ger. This Iad asked that he might have the portion of his father's estate that would came to him later in life, or upon the death if his father. It was given to him. He wanted it that he might have • means by -which he could go off and live as he pleased. But this was selfish. It may hava• embar- rassed his father to divide the estate up at this time. So he went. He not only wasted his money, but he wasted his character, his strength, his personality, he weak- ened his will, he lost his friends -he certainly lost his self-respect, Being well-Aborn, brought up in a good home, adequate education, be- ginning with ample funds for all the needs of life, these thing,' com- bined, cannot of themselves keep a man from degradation if he is determined to live for selfish in- dulgence. A Change Takes Place 17. "But when he came to him- self he said, How many hired ser- vants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish here with hunger! 18. I will arise and go to my father, and will cry unto nim, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight: 19. I am no more worthy to be call- ed thy son: ma' e me as one of thy hired servants. 20. Ard he arose, and came to his father. But while he was yet afar off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fel] on his neck, and kissed hi.- . 21, And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy si,ht: I am no more worthy to be called thy son." There came a change. Suddenly the man came to himeslf. While he was wasting his life in riotous living he was not b use' • He had been acting in a way abnormal, unnatural. It is not said how the pian tme to himself. Undoubtedly, that which had the greatest influence over him to sac a turning point was the memory of home, and '•e final re- alization of the abject condition into which he had come. God open allows degradation, memory, shame, want, loss r." loved ones, loneliness to bring us to ourselves, where Ile can at last deal with us. Once proudly the younger son demanded the share of the estate, and went off to please himself. Now, humbly, he returns to the father who alone had loved him, willing to take any place which the father might give to him, The Son Retu^ns 22. "But the father said to his servants, Bring forth quickly the hest robe, and put it on him; ,and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: 23. and bring the fat- ted calf, and kill it, and let us eat, and make merry: 24. for this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost and is found. And they began to be merry." Of course the father had come wanton upon the son. Compassion is born of love, and love never TABLE OF RANKS IN ARMED FORCES Equivalent Ranks, And Seniority In British Navy, Arsuy an (i Ain' Force.

The father could not keep the son honk, and the father knew it was useless to go after the son and compel him to come home. That would mean no change in the boy's he..rt. That would do him no permanent good, for he would simply go away again. But when the son really was ready to comb back, the father stood with open arms waiting to receive him; to rejoice in his return, and not only to rejoice but to make an ' hund- ant provision for the satisfying of his unsatisfied legitimate appe- tites. In other words, the father was ever ready still to be a pro- viding father for his boy. God will not go with us along our paths of sinful indulgence but God never loses sight of us, sends :after us messengers of mercy to bring us back, and waits as long as life lasts for us to return to Him, that He might be our Father, and that we might be His children. When should a person repent? At once. What should he wait for? Nothing. Any man knows if he is out of the way of God, out of fellowship with, God, living in sin, separated from God. The Word of God is written to tell us, and the 'Son of God came to prove to us that God is not willing that any should perish, going down this road of destruction to weakness, impovsrishmen't, death and judgment, but that all should come to the repentance which leads to life everlasting, RA 10 REPO ,'' TER DIALING WITH DAVE: Here is Don Ameohe, topflite favorite of radio and screen.
