"Jesus Answers His Adversaries"
Mark 12:2S-40.
This chapter was enacted the third
day of passion week, while teaching
in the temple his last visit to the
temple. Teachers will use the whole
chapter to get the complete discourse
with those who sought to destroy
him, and to show us the wickedness
of his enemies. First, the parable of
the vineyard and its keepers, which
is to expose the leaders of Israel.
Next the question of the Pharisees
and Herodians. Two parties that
made common cause to embarrass
Christ. Their question had two barbs
to it. they believed that Jesus would
be impailcd on one or the other. But
they did not know the Lord; he con
founded them with making them an
swer their own question. The Roman
coin decided the matter. "Give to
Caesar what belongs to him, and to
God what belongs to him."
From that day this incomparable
answer has defined the proper boun
daries of church and state. No won
der the hearers marveled at the
Lord's reply.
The Sadducees, the aristocrats of
the Jewish leaders, came with an old
question, in regard to men's relation
in the other world if Buch there
was by quoting a hypothetical case,
of seven brothers and one woman.
Jesus lifts this question to a higher
plane into heaven, where there is
no marriage and no need to perpetu
ate the race by childbearing, since
there is no death any more.
Now comes a lawyer, who has ob
served the other parties and how the
Lord had answered their questions.
This man seemed to be a fairminded
man would like to have Jesus opin
ion cn one of their debatable ques
tion: "Which is the most important
commandment to be observed?" Ac
cording to the reckoning of the Rab
bis, the law contained 613 precepts,
and these were divided into two
classes "heavy" and "light." Often
the inquiry would crop up, "Which of
these commandments is the most
binding: of all?"
Jesus does not quote the Decalog,
but quotes the introductions to the
ten commandments which teaches the
unity of God, which really appre
hended, is a basis for the human will
to repose upon, and to become self
crnsistent and at peace.
Loving God with man's whole be
ing heart, soul, mind, strength
means union with God. "We are one
with him. "We are wrapped in his
e'ectiny. Our personal existence is
identified with his personal exist
ence. "We live as long as he lives.
This is the unique and hitherto un-hoard-cf
truth that Christ revealed.
Ths second is this, "Thou shalt
love thy neighbor as thyself." Here
again our Lord quotes from the old
testament (Lev. 19:18). Love to
God sums up the first table of the
law; love to one's neighbor, the sec
ond table. Man is responsible to God
Tor himself, first of all. Hence, he
must first take care cf himself and
to do this must love himself. "There
Is no greater commandment than
these." Christ inspires the life of
!cve in us, through which the law of
love becomes the law of our being.
This lawyer did acknowledge that
the Lord had given a good definition
of the question; and Jesus had rare
ly found anyone to understand him
so promptly and so thoroughly, and
his intelligent sympathy was wel
come to his burdened and lonely
spirit.
Now, the Lord turns questioner.
"In what sense is Christ the Son of
David? (Matt. 22:41). We see that
Jesus spoke to the Pharisees. "How
ran he be David's son, when David
calls him his Lord? This question
has never been answered. But David
in prophetic vision sees Christ as the
Lord ever all his enemies, the Lord
of all (Ps. 110:1-3); and yet Christ
is a direct descendant from David,
as the genealogy in Matt. 1 reveals.
Here now follows Christ s con
demnation of the Jewish leaders in
stern language. These men that had
assailed him. "Beware of the scribes."
This must have sounded strange in
deed to Christ's hearers. But Christ
jroes cn to give his reasons in the
form cf a description. "Who desire to
walk in long robes." The salient
points in their character were osten
tation, avarice and religious hypoc
ricy. This tribe has net died out yet
they are still with us. Why should
these mortals be so proud? "What
is man, that thou art mindful of
him?" (Ps. 8:4). "Man is like to
vnnity; his days are as a shadow that
passeth away." (Ps. 144:4). Then
why so haughty?
Jesus closes this chapter with a
beautiful scene, which he observed,
how a poor widow makes her "hum
ble gift to the temple treasury. The
rich made quite a display in pouring
their gifts into the treasury, their
coins making a prodigious rattling.
The poor widow, with her quarter of
a cent gift, was not noted by the
others but Jesus saw it; she gave
all she had that was sacrifice and
self-denial. The gospel of the wid
ow's mite has been preached thru
the centuries, and has found many
imitators. God notes the gifts we
"bring!
"My life, my love, I give to thee,
thcu Lamb of God -who died for me;
O may I ever faithful be, ny Savior
and my God."
Bible Schools "Well Attended.
The two Bible schools at Murray
were well attended on last Sunday,
Mother's day, with no church serv
ices except the young people they
seemed to get out a good attendance.
The Bible school at the Christian
church had one hundred and three
in attendance while the Presbyterian
was a very close second with an
even hundred and with Mother's day
exercises at both places mad3 the
services very interesting.
The senior Christian Endeavor of
the Christian church had arranged
to attend services of this body with
the same society of th eChristian
church of Plattsmouth, and as the
Murray society have been meeting at
seven o'clock they had counted on
the same society of the Christian
society but they had just changed to
six thirty and thus the meeting was
partly over when they arrived. They
all enjoyed the occasion, nevertheless.
Those in the delegation from Mur
ray were Neva Lancaster, S. Ferry,
wife and daughter, Melvern Reed,
Mae Wilson, Thelma Thomas, Hazel
Cowan who were on their way from
Leo and Marie Davis, Homer War
tham, Eugene Gruber.
Greeted the Granddaughter.
On last Sunday Mr. and Mrs. A. J.
Wilcon, parents of Font Wilson and
who make their home near Cedar
Creek, were visitors at the home ot
Mr. and Mrs. Font Wilson for Moth
er's day, and as well was also Levi
Wilson, parents of Font Wilson and
T. Wilson and arso Herbert Beins,
who came to see the good wife and
was presented with a very charming
little daughter weighing nine pounds
which was born a few days before
and was claiming the greater portion
of the attention of the happy throng.
All are getting along very fine. Mrs.
Beins and the little daughter are
staying at the home of Mr. and Mrs
Font T. Wilson.
The Cass county quota of young
men who have been selected for the
reforestation work under the U. S.
government plan, will be called into
service this week, advices from
Lincoln state. The young men are
to report at Plattsmouth on Friday
afternoon, promptly for the phy

to leaving for the training camp.
The men will be given a physical
examination by an army surgeon and
all who pass will be immediately
prepared for leaving for the training
camp at Fort Crook.
The total number of men called
will be 1,206 and the quota of this
county will be thirty-six. In case
those who have been selected, fail
to report or to pass the physical
examination, their places will be
taken by others who have made ap
plication. The men will remain at Fort Crook
for a two weeks period and during
which time they will be given a con
ditioning to place them in the best of
shape physically for the work that
is awaiting them.
The war department has author
ized the purchase of athletic equip
ment to be used at conditioning
camps, and to be taken with the
men to forest camps. An initial ath
letic kit is to be bought for each
company of approximately 200 men.
The equipment comprises two volley
balls and nets and baseball equip
ment. Playground equipment may be
substituted for baseball equipment if
desired. The baseball kit comprises
one catcher's mask, two catcher's
mitts, two basemen's mitts, four
teen fielder's gloves, one catcher's
protector, one pair of catcher's leg
guards, one score book, one set of
baseball bases.

See America first is a good motto,
and after the United States and
North America it is well to see South
America, so Ed Mackey and Will
Griffin departed conie two weeks ago
with the end in view of seeing that
wonderful country on the other side
of the equator, Argentina, and where
so much wheat grows.
