"Jesus Fates the Cress"
Mark 10:32-4 5..
As we draw near the close of our
Savior's life, his greatness shines
ever more resplendent, and we see
ever more clear!y that it is the great
ness not of wisdom or power,
though these he had more than any
man that ever lived but the great
ness of sacrificial service. That is
the essence of all true greatness for
his followers as well, as we are to
study it in this lesson as a teaching
for our individual lives.
Leaving Peraea, our Lord now
joined the crowd of passover pilgrims.
They were going up to Jerusalem, it
was always up, as the city was lo
cated on the central ridge of Pales
tine. Jesus was going before them
the Twelve. His custom was to walk
in the midst of them, and this caus
ed amazement. There seemed to be
something awesome and majestic in
his bearing. "He set his face to go
to Jerusalem." Luke 9:51.
Pear took held of them and they
became afraid for their beloved lead
er, as well as for themselves. In the
forward movement of the centuries,
Christ is always In the forefront. He
"goeth on before," leading all great
enterprises in the march toward the
golden age. Our cry, therefore, is
not "Back to Christ," but "Forward
to Christ."
Jesus saw their distress and pit
ied them and he took again the
twelve and told them in plain words
what would happen to him. "The
Son cf Man," Christ's favorite des
ignation of himself, signifying the
divine assumption of complete hu
manity. He is the representative man,
to make atcnement for the sins cf
mankind. He was preparing them
fcr the great test that they would
undergo; but pointing to the glor
ious outcome the resurrection on
the third day.
While in the midst cf this solemn
declaration, Jesus is interrupted bj
Salome, and her two sons, James and
John. (Math. 20:20-23 gives this in
cident more in detail). Here were
two ambitious disciples. The honesty
of the Bible is repeatedly shown in
the way it pictures the darks as well
as the lights in the character of its
heroes. These twelve were the men
who led the churches, who establish
ed Christianity; and yet half of them
ere left in utter obscurity, one is
Ehown to be a traitor and suicide,
one a denier of the Lord, one a-
doubter of the resurrection, and all
of them to have foresaken Christ at
his arrest.
Two of the most revered were
James and John, yet here we have a
discreditable anecdote recorded
against them. History, thus written,
is to be trusted implicitly.
Here comes Salome with James and
John. Salome was probably the sis
ter to Mary, the mother of Jesu.?, so
that Jamss and John were his cousins.
In Mathew 20:20 it is the mother
who makes the request to make her
sons cabinet ministers in his king
dom; here it Is the two sons who do
the asking. Where was Zebedee in
this scene? Here is Salome with her
boys, but no Zebedee. The wife In
lcyal allegiance to Jesus, but the hus
band not. Zebedee's sons magnificent
Christians, but the father outside the
church. And that case Is just one
more instance of that common trag
edy, a man who "keeps his religion
in his wife's name" and so divides
the family.
Jesus had to deny the request for
want of authority (see V. 40). Their
request was a rash one, which Jesus
knew. He knew upon what dreadful
seat he should presently assert him
self "King of Sorrows," and what
should be upon his right hand and
his left. "Prepared of my Father"
is. the reading in Mathew's account.
"The Father is greater than I." This
caused quite a stir among the ten
they became indignant!
Jesus called them together and
pointed out to them the principality
of servants. The ten reasoned that
the two sought to take an unfair ad
vantage of the others. They did not
dare to bring their complaint to the
Savior, but He could read their in
nermost thoughts.
Jesus did not condemn ambition. A
man with no ambition does not
amount to much. "Hitch your wag
on to a star."
It is not so easy to rule, but it
requires a heroic soul to be a servant
A practical lesson was taught the
disciples in the washing of their feet.
(See John 13:4-12) a lesson in
humility and service.
Great men have come to their
greatness from low beginnings. James
A. Garfield was a canal boat driver,
leading mulos cn the towpath; Abra
ham Lincoln did all kind of menial
labor, and both became president
the highest office in the power of our
people to bestow on any man.
Christ does not condemn greatness
or the desire for it, but rather he
points the way towards it. "The Son
rf Man came not to be ministered
unto, but to minister." This is one
Df the greatest verses in the Bible,
embodying the very heart of Chris
tianity. Now follows the doctrine of
ltonement, the central teaching of
Christianity. "Gave his life a ran
dom for many." To pay a ransom for
Dne in slavery; to free from acptiv
:ty, to redeem from bondage of 6in, a
price paid for release from captivity
(what a vast field to cultivate.)
The salvation wrought by the min
istry of Jesus is described by Peter,
3rst Epistle, Chapter 1:10-12. (All
teachers urged to read this!)
"I gave iny life fcr thee;
My precious blood I shed,
That thou might ransomed be,
And quickened from the dead;
I gave, I gave my life for thee.
What hast thou givn for me?" ,
