Welshimer, superintendent of the Christian BibLi school at Canton. Ohio, teacher of ihe Men's Bible class of that school. The bible school has an enrollment of much over two thousand and on February 21st 1926 had in attend ance some 2.1 S 5 and the class which Mr. Welshimer teaches had 25S the sr-ame day. It will be interesting to have this lesson from so successful a teacher. Golden Text: "I am the way, the truth and the life. John 14:6. By P. H. Welshimer. "Let not your heart be troubled.' These words were spoken by Jesus to a troubled group. They had a wrong conception of His mission and His kingdom. They thought He would establish a kingdom as in the days of Solo mon. They had a vision of the King on His throne and with His disciples on His right and His left. He had frequently spoken of His death, but them understood Him not. Today, when He made know the fact that He must die, they were troubled. These word.s of His were intended to stimulate faith, dispel sorrow, and give wings to hope. It was the purpose of Jesus to avoid the loss of faith on their part. There was danger that, at His death, they would be too overwhelmed with sorrow and disappointment to with stand the tide that setting in. The resurrection would explain exery thing. but until 'then this word was needed. " ' - Then, again; His absence after the ascension would " naturally leave ; them lonely, and the word lie spake would comfort through coming days. And the same words have proved an unfailing source of comfort through the years as death ha3 come and the funeral processions have all moved out to Cod's acre. "In my Father's house" was a pictureque way of describing the stat of the blessed dead. It was then, and always has been, most difficult for the finite to understand the infinite. Jeeus was speaking cf a spiritual condition, anil used the familiar material to convey to the mind of the people His thought. It is a beautiful description of the Christian's heritage. Every man loves a home. Jesus would carry in to the great beyond the thought of home with its delightful fellowship, love and permanent features. This, too, was a prophetic utter ance concerning- immortality. In olden days men buried their dead, and, returning home, sat by their fireside disconsolate. They called in tbe Wise-meu and said: "If a man die. shall he live again?" But men could not answer. They only said: "We hope and trust, but we do not know." No reassuring voice spake wnn auinorny on mat sunjec uuu i administration of said estate may be Jesus came proclaiming the good i Kranted to N D. Talcott, as Admin doctrine, answering the yearning ot I jst rator the heart, and saying: "Because I live, ye shall live also." He said: "Of a certainty" there is more be yond. In His ministry He proved conclusively his divinity. That done, it was necessary that lie prove any thing else, for, being divine, He had all knowledge, and spake only the truth. When He says that there isjcotice of the pendency of said peti- lite beyong the grave and tearties that all that are in the grave shall hear voice and come forth, and when He teaches'that lie is coming again and will reign in glory, we believe Him. This is the Christian's hope and the source of His joy. This is the urge to keep the faith, to fight the battle, and to finish the course. The crown of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give, becomes the goal. This Jesus placed before his disciples and left it there for every disciple until the end of the ages. "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." "To live is Christ; to die is gain." These affirmations were made by Paul, who ppake as he was moved by the Holy Spirit, and his statements parallel those of Jesus in this lesson. Thoma said: "How know we the way i That wav is not some lon- clrawn-out doctrine, but Jesus Him self is "the way and the truth and the life." He made the redemption of man possible. The acceptance of Him and His plan on the part of the penitent believer will lead one to put Him on, and thou to fall in line with His plan, and work out his own salvation. The entire process, has been worked out and demon- sjrated for our benefit, and it all is so plain we need not err therein. Phillip said: "Lord, show us the! Father." This was a surprise to Jesus, for lie came to reveal the Father, to make Him manifest unto men. God was in the Son, reconcil ing the world unto Himself. If the deeiples would see God, they should look at Jesus, for He was God in the flesh dwelling among men. If men would know how God would teach, listen to Jesus. If they would see how He moved about among men, and how Ho would act under all conditions in life, behold the Son, I who was God incarnate. The words 'And greater works than these go unto the shall ye do; because I Father." Jesus had been talking oi His miracles, but now announces that when He goes to the Father. His disciples will do greater works than He did. What can these words be? Surely no miracles can be per formed greater than His. What mir acle can be more outstanding than raising the dead, healing the sick, giving sight to the blind, multiply ing food that a multitude may be bed. quieting the restless sea and driving the winds back to their mountain home? There is no record that those who were given miracu lous power ever did anything sup erior to this, and yet He said: "Great er works than these shall ye do." He was not mistaken. He was right. The greater works to which he re ferred were not In miraculous maai festations; they did not consist in the presenting of the credentials that faith in an individual be established, they were, more than building the scaffolding about a temple; they were the building of the temple it self. The greater works were the doings c:f the greatest things given to man preaching of the unsearch able riches of Christ, proclaiming Him the regnant king, the divine Savior, the only begotten Son of God and with that proclamation setting forth the great gospel with all its facts to be believed, its commands to be obeyed, its promise's to be en joyed, and its threatenings to be avoided. That's the big task, the summum bonum of all, that He left for us to do. "If ye shall ask anything in my name, that will I do." Christ will be hearing the prayers of His peo ple. Not every prawer will be ans wered, for the same reason that not every word spoken by man is not heard across the continent. But. if conditions be right, and all the laws of Nehawka were in the city today complied with, the voice of any man for a short time in company with in the world can be heard thousands Peter Opp of that place, attending of miles away. The laws of tre air- the naturalization hearing iu the must he known and obeyed to insure district court. great a blessing. Likewise the! so laws of prayer must be known and obeyed to bring the answer to pray - er. In brief they are these: Pray in the name of Christ; have the for- giving spirit, "Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors; bring one's will in submission . to His will. "Not my will, but thine be done;" prav sincerely.. "The effectual fer- vent prayer of a righteous man avail- eth much." Then, throught it all. remember that God will answer ac cording to our needs rather than ac cording to our desires. Mrs. Eleanor V.
