THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING.
Time.-- Ohrist spoke the pa2•abe
o7' the prodigal son:in January, A: D.
30, three months before His cruci-
fixion. Peter's Pentecostal sermon
was delivered on Sunday,':.. May 28,
A,D. 30.
Plage•—T]Ie, 'par'able of the prodi-
gal son was spoken in Peraea, east
of the "Jordan. Peter's sermon was
prea.ebecl in Jerusalem, in : or near
the "upper •room of the Lord's
. supper.
REPENTANCE IN THE GOSPELS.
Repentance is more than •sorrow*
far sin. Many a min has that, and
Yet rushes again into the old mire.
To change the mind and will is not
enough unless the change is certi-
fled to be real by deeds correspond
ng. So •Johna preached the trate na-
ture of repentance when he called
for its fruits.
.knd he said, A certain man • had
two sons, ' The certain: pian „ is
• God, the : Heavenly; Father: The
Younger son represents penitent
sinners and the olc1 son represents
proud sinners, who do 'not regard
themselves as sinners at all.
And; the younger of them said to
his father, Father, `give me the poi -
tion of thy ,substance that falleth to
me. AM he divided unto them his
living, "A younger brother's per
tion, according to the Jewish laws
of inheritance; would, *he the half
that which the elder, brother should
receive '(Deet. 21:17; 2 Things 2:
9.) Contemplated' spiritually this
request is the expression of naen's
desire to be -independent of God, to
become 'a god to himself (Gen. 3:
5,) and to lay out his life at his own
will and for his pleasure.

And not many days after., the
younger son gathered .all together
and took his journey int() .a far Coun-
try, As we see the prodigal sons
around r us, the far country inay be
only across the street .indeed, the
prodigal •.may remain at home;; for
it is a heart journey, a journey of
interest and ,desire,, this to a far
country: .And there he wasted his
substance with riotous' living. Boys,
I:ve given up being a good fellow,;
said. one of my elasanates at a poi -
lege reunion. Ten years of it was
enough. And now after the waste
of tell golden years, and five more
of (decent.living, play conclusion is
that it's beter to be a ,square than
than a good` fellow.
And, when he had: spent all, there
arose a mighty famine in that coun-
try;
oun-try; and he began to be in want.
Sinning .is an expensive business.
Poverty is one of its legitimate child-
ren.
And he went and joined himself
to one Of the citizens of that coun-
try; and he sent him into `his fields
to feed swine. Many sins win us by
promising 'advancement or at least
pleasure; they never give us either.
And he would fain have filled his.
belly with the husks that the swine
did eat; and no man gave unto loin.
These "husks" were . the pods of the
carob tree, . the beans of ,which were
used tor weights, whence cane our
"carat."
But when he cafe to himself. He
bad been "beside himself." It is not
suggested that the; sinner is beside
himself in th sense that he is not
responsible for his actions, but that
in sinning he is acting contrary, to
his *highest reason: Be said, How
many hfred servants of my father's
have bread enough and to ,spare,
and. I perish: here with hunger! Ac1-
versity is a wonderful eye-opener.
Necessity ie the mother of common
sense.
I will arise and go to my father,
and will say unto him, Father, I
have shied against heaven,, and in
thy 'sight. This is true repentance,
even though prompted by hunger.
He is not going to wait till he feels
greater sorrow for his sins. He will
not tarry under the delusion that he
ran make himself any better,
l ant Ito »,etre worthy to be called
thy son; make me as one of thy
hired servants: 'true repentance
humbles us to the dust, and takes
na to our Lorcl in lowliest humility.
And he arose, and cane .. to his
father. We picture hint toiling on
for many a weary 'utile with dizzy
head, and swimming eye, and sink-
ing heart—bis lilts' parched with
thirst, his limbs staggering with
faintness, his body famished with
hunger. Ts' it not noteworthy that in
this story, so exquisitely told and
so'' rich in detail, not one word is
said of all these difficulties and
troubles? Our blessed Lordcasts,_a
veil' over all that. intervened be-
tween the moment of decision and
the moment of meeting', because He
would' have us know that when once
the will is dee ided to arise and go
fo the Father, the way to the Fath-
er's house need be neither long not•
tedious. But while he was yet afar
off his fathersaw hint. •'rlae father

REPENTANCE IN THE ACTS AND
EPISTLES.
This Jesus did God raise ` up, Our
verses are front. the conclusion of
Peter's noble sermon delivered at
Pentecost after the descent of the
Spirit, in whose power the apostle
was preaching'. Whereof we all are
witnesses. The twelve apostles
standing there, and many, others with
thein.
Being therefore by the right hand.
of God exalted. Peter and the others
had seen the Lord <ascend, into heaven
to sit again at the right hand of
the Father. And having received of
the Father the promise of the Holy
Spirit, Our Lorcl had : told them
(John. 14:16, .26) that God would
send the Comforter to them in an -
sever to his prayer i y He hath poured
forth this,which ye see and hear.
They had seen the tongues of fire,
and had heard the rushing of a
mighty wind and the apostles speak-
ing in strange language (Acts 2:
2-4.)
For David ascended not into the
heavens, He, not like "great David's
greater Son," went down to tile'
grave in his death, and his body re-
mained there. Buthe saith himself:
See Ps. 110:1, The Lord said unto
my Lord,. Sit thou on my right hand.
David in this psalm, Peterasserts,
was speaking of his descendant,
Jesus, whom nevertheless he calls
"my Lord," and exalts to the right
hand of Jehovah:
Till I make thine . enemies the
footstool' of thyfeet. Conquerors in-
dicated theivictory by placing
their feet on the necks of. their foes,
as was done by Joshua's chieftains
(Josh, 10; 24.)
Let all the house ` of Israel ( the
nation of the Jews) therefore know
assuredly, that God bath made'. hint
both Lord. and Christ (both supreme
ruler and foretold Messiah), this
Jesus, whom ye crucified: those
listening to Peter may have, had no.
personal part in the crucifixion of
'Christ, but they had not protested
against it, and they were a part of
the whole' nation whicli hacl allowed
it and urged it an.
Now when they heard this; they
were pricked in their heart, their
sorrow and: shame being lake stings
and goads driving thein to repent-
ance. And' said unto Peter and the
rest ofthe apostles, Brethren, what
shall we do? Paul's cry at his con-
version, Acts 22:10 the question
asked by every soul when niacle to
see his wickedness.
And Peter said unto them, Repent
ye, The first step of every convict -
.ed sinner must bo to turn sharply
from his sins and do them no more.
And 'be baptized every' one of you
in the' name of Jesus Christ. Tn

means "the sending away;" the sins
