LESSON FOR DECEMBER 17
THE HOLY CITY.
LESSON TEXT Ttav. 21:1-7, 12-27.
GOLDEN TKXT-llehold, the, taber
nacle of God la with men, and he shall
'I well with (hem, and they shall be hi
people. Itev. 21:1
As we approach the end of the year,
our minds turn front the Imperial city,
where Inst we have any authentic rec
ord of Paul, to the eternal city In
which he hus so long resided. In les
son ten we studied Jesus Christ in his
resurrection glory, the source of all
power, King of King and Lord of
tarda for the redemption of the hu
man race. In Lesson 11 we studied
the (clnrlncd Christ who is actually
working through his churches is the
representatives of his kingdom upon
earth. The .succeeding chapters de
Hcribo in symbols and pictures the dis
cipline and training of God's people
during the long generations that fol
lowed. In the lesson for today, we
have a vision of the flnul triumph of
Christianity when It Khali have ac
complished its work of redemption In
this world.
I. The New Heaven and the New Earth
(vv. 1-7). John in vision Baw the con
wiiTininllor, of the work of Christian
ity, the vislhle answer to the .prayer
which Jesus Christ tuught his disciples
to pray, "thy kingdom conic, thy will
l' done on enrth ns In heaven."
i leaven, as well ns eurth, has heen In
vaded and polluted by sin, but both
alike are to be made new. (I Peter 3 :1(,
II, 1H). The true Jerusalem, of which
.Solomon's was but n type, Is of hettv-
nly and divine origin. It cotnos down
out of heaven from (Jod. We know
nothing of the lnhaliltut.ts of the uni
verse of which we nre a part, but hero
we have nome scriptural Indication of
that place w here God's children are to
be with hliu eternally. The kingdom
of God Is umong you, but it Is even
tually to be with God uud Jesus In a
peculiar naJ beautiful way. John's
announcement enmo from out of Leuv
cn and out of the throne. (1) It
vus a tabernacle of God with men;
rather he shall tabernacle with men.
lie Is to pitch his tent a:nong us (John
1:14 It. V. mnrg.) It Is to be doi
eventually nr.d permanently. This
dwelling it God among us lies at the
foundation of the blessedness and glo
ries which ure to follow. (2) They
tdiull be his people. Israel had been
his people; all nations are to be his
people In the fullest sense. (3) God
himself shall be with them, not only
Ids tabernacle tut he, himself visibly,
personally. (4) lie shall be their God,
acknowledged in all his Infinite claims,
and he to them all that God Is of love,
rower, wisdom, holiness and glory.
(5) Ilo shall wipe away every tear
from their eyes. There will not be a
single grief or heartache, unsatisfied
longing or tear, for God shall wipe
them away, and they will stay wiped
uway. . (G) Death shall be no more.
Of all the enemies, death is the last
one whli h shall be taken from,, the
earth. It Is sweet to know that this
last cneiriy is to be conquered. (7)
Ttwro-satt-he- aa -mourning, crying cp
pain any more. Every sorrow, agony,
remorse, gloom, disappointment gone
forever; death, tears, mourning all
passed away. It Is hard for us to com
prehend the majesty and sweep of this
great and glorious promise. (See I
Cor. 15).
II. The Coming Light and Glory (vr.
22-27). The Intervening verses are a
wonderful description of the founda
tion walls and gutes of the city. There
will be no temple In that city for It will
not be needed. Instead of the temple
which stands for the tempfe of earth
there is t be the presence of God,
himself, buc the lamb Is also In the
midst of it. Nothing can more force
fully Impress upon us the deity and pre
eminence of Jesus Christ, the atoning
lamb, slain before the foundation of
the world. This city is to be a city of
light and glory. It will not be an 11
lutnlnatloa by gas nor electricity, for
the glory of the Lord shall lighten it
Summary. What are the lessens for
our day from this vision of the new
heaven aud the new earth? First:
That the golden age of the Bible hus
not yet taken place. There are better
times to come than anything the 'world
has yet seen. Second: We huve here
the positive assurance of the success
of our leader aud the victory of Chris
tianity In Us conflict with evil. Third
Tho golden Ideal of heuven U the
menu by which we can test our dully
lives and the whole course of our con
duct The question we should con
stantly ask Is, "Are we going to this
heavenly Ideal V Fourth: The gate
of that city are open; an angel Is at
each gate, and shall keep out all evil.
God desires that all men everywhere
should repent end Is not willing thut
any should perish.
When the final assise shall have
passed, no one will say that God did
not give him a chance nor seek to in
spire him to a place of eternal Joy at
his right bund.
Agalp there is to be federation
of
the forces of good. , Today we too
often find Christian people divided.
Invitation. "And the Spirit aud the
hride say come, let hlra that heareth
say come, and let him thut Is athlrst
come, at.d whosoever will let him take
of the water of life freely."

CHRISTMAS CREED UNIVERSAL
Adjusts Itself to All Conditions and
All Places It's Magic Influences
. the World.
The festival called Christmas has
come to have a creed wider than any
ritual. Its magic has influenced the
world In a degree more profound and
far-reaching than that of any other
recurring Incident marked by the his
tory of mankind. Its sentiment has,
Indeed, overflowed all boundaries, both
of sect and of social condition. Its
high, clear note of cheer and charity
has appealed to an unbounded degree
wherever human Ideals have had sway.
Pessimism holts at its portal.
The creed of kindness adjusts Itself
to nil conditions nnd ull pluces. It
seems to be a good working creed,
despite the unattractive phases of per
functory giving und taking. It is a
cheerful creed. It strews life with guy
cty nnd color. It is a culmination to
sentiments of fair play, to active sym
pathy, to the do-It-now Impulse.
, Christmas has no climate. It glows
where life Is green nnd where It Is
white. In city und In country. In the
hills und on the desert, among tli
plues and among the palms It lhuls n
voice. It Is holy day nnd holiday. It
drapes the altar and the hearth. It
has many American versions, u-f
rrany races add Ihelr varying symbols
to Us tenderness and to its animation.
Above' all. the call of Christmas Is
"Peace on Earth." In the present
grievous crisis of the world there Is
significance In this call beyond that of j
any crisis mankind ever before was J
culled to read. That war hu. darkened j
Christmas for' so much of the world j
may well seem, at the moment, the
crushing condemnation of ail such con
flicts. Vet tt will remain true that the full
beauty of the duy and the time is due
those who may Und that beauty. Chil
dren of every land seize It for their
own. And, "except ye become as one
of these," life loses Its saving luster.
