JESUS AND NICODEMjCS /Sunday, Jan. 17—John 3:1-21. Golden Text For God so loved the1 world, that He gave His only begotten that whosoever believeth in Should not perish, _ but have lasting life. (John's: 1G) Two tremendous events Son, Him ever- occur in the chapter in John’s Gospel com­ ing between last week’s lesson and this. ,We should not omit them, for they are filled) with vital signifi­ cance in the life and ministry ■ of Christ. One was the first rrracie wrought by our Lord; His changing of the water to wine at the marriave in Cana of Galilee, This firacle mani- disciples believed on Him.” It set forth tlie difference between the old dispensation of law and the new dispensation of grace. The- new wine was the revelation of Himself —better than the best of the past. •Soon after this .Christ went to Jer­ usalem and. cleansed the temple, driving out the animals that were gold there and overthrowing tables of the money changers, was His Father’s house, and demonstrated His authority power to cleanse. When the Jews challenged His authority, He pre­ dicted His death and resurrection as the Messiah and Saviour in words they did not undertand this temple and raise it Up.” He continued “many believed though superficially, what some might have considered a great honour; a Pharisee, Nicode­ mus, ruler of the Jews, sought out the Lord by night, simke to Him approvingly, and evidently desired an interview with Kim. the It He and •Hut ntoodemus, the theologian and strict religious loader of his day, received a he said to the know that thou from God,” the a statement intimating that Nicode­ mus was not competent to express an opinion on this subject, for he did not know the simplest funda­ mentals of the Kingdom of God, Here was our Lord’s startling word: ’’Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God.” Nicodemus was talking about some­ thing he had never seen fenced. As the Pharisee asked any stretch of possibilty, could be born When lie was old, the Lord patiently was speaking of A man must be of the Spirit , born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the (Spirit is spirit, Marvel not that I said unto thee. Ye must be born again,” And, the Lord further explained, as the ori­ gin and' destination of the wind are mysteries—we cannot tell1 whence it comes, or whither it goes—so the supernatural action of the Holy Spirit is mysterious. But both are real, not imaginary, Nicodemus now abandoned his pose of knowledge and intellectual power, as he asked helplessly, ‘HoW can these things be?’ “Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?” was the Lord’s question then. A man has to be brought down into the dust before he can b§ lifted to the heights with Christ. Nicodemus was forced to face the facts that lie must begin life all over again, con-, fessing that he knew nothing, and That he must learn everything from this man of Nazareth, brought up in a (carpenter’s shop and home. The Lord went on to explain how we can be born again. The only man who had ascended up to Heav­ en and was therefore competent to speak of heavenly things was “He that came down from Heaven, even the Son of Man which is in Heaven,’ Then came the' mysterious word, the heart of the Gospel, looking back to a great experience in Israel’s his­ tory with which every Pharisee was familiar, “As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness,!-’ but their familiarity with the meaning of the event stopped there; now the Lord told Nicodemus something new; “Even sb must the Son of Man be lifted up.” The wilderness experience of Is­ rael is told in Numbers 21. God’s people sinned in complaining against God, and He se.nt forth fiery ser­ pents among- them, ail ci the people were bites, made a pole, and every Israelite who had been poisoned by, a serpent’s bite, when he lifted up his eyes and look!- ed at the brazen serpent, andi was healed and lived. What .was the meaning of this? The serpent stands for sin; brass stands for judgment; -me brazen serpent was sin judged and a type of Christ “made sin for us” (II Cor. 5:21) and therefore under the judg- mentment of God in our stead. As dying Israelites,_ poisoned to death by the serpent s sting, need­ ed only to lift up their eyes in faith and look upon the brazen serpent, so any sinner, in Nicodemus’s day or today, poisoned ny sin and con­ demned to death as a result of sin, needs only to look in faith upon Christ made sin for uS, our Substi­ tute and Saviour, and be healed'and saved and have eternal life. “For God so loved the world that He gave His- only begotton ,Son, that whoso­ ever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world througn Him might be saved. He that uelieveth oil Him is not condemned; (but he that believeth not is. condemned already, because lie hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” There is reason to believe that Nicodemus became a humble be­ liever in Christ as his Saviour, for he boldly spoke in our Lord’s be­ half in the presence of the .Phari­ sees when they were acting in open enmity against Christ (John 7:45- 52); and after the crucifixion he joined Joseph of Arimathaea in lov­ ingly bearing away and caring for the body of the Lord (John 19:38- 41), Doubtless Nicodemus was in­ deed born again and is with the Lord today, where all may be who will believe in Him and thus receive everlasting life, 'Destroy in three days, I will wlth miracles, and in His name’ Thon even came great shock, when Lord: “Rabbi, we art a teacher come Lord answeredi with or exper- how, by a man explained that He spiritual new birth, “•born. of water and . , That which is dying from the venomous At t God’s command Moses a serpent of brass, set it upon JHje Exrirr gJimra-Adiwrate Kitxblhhed mi Hit Published every Thur«day mfruluft at Exeter, Ontario SUBSCRIPTION—12.00 per y*U |K advance.
