BIBLE SCHOOL LESSON
Sunday, January 1st
By M. S. Brlffgs
Golden Text: "He must increase
. and I must decrease." John 3:30.
Jesus, the Son of God
j Since the fall of man, which was
in the Garden of Eden, the world had
been under condemnation and in the
bondage of sin. Man had groped his
,way through darkness, after he had
been expelled from the garden, and
while he had been directed in many
jways by messages from the Father,
through the patriarchs, the prophets
and the judges, his rebelious nature
had prevented him from holding en
tirely to the commands of the mes
sages that were sent him, and sin
and vice was apparent everywhere.
1 Immediately after the world had
been peopled, the first sin was com
, mitted, causing expulsion from the
beautiful garden of paradise and the
command that by the sweat of our
brow shall we earn our bread. Later,
,to stamp out the growing sinful con
dition, God found it necessary to de
stroy everyone on the earth, with the
exception of Noah and his wife, and
their three sons and wives. So the
deluge came and swallowed up the
people of the earth, and mankind
was given a second chance, but again
the people sinned. Notwithstanding
this. God made a covenant with man
that he would not again destroy the
world with a flood. The people con
tinued to multiply and also grow more
and more wicked.
! The Wages of Sin
We are tauarht that the wages of
sin is deatS. and this was taught in
many ways back in the days of the
prophets. When the people multiplied
and sin again gained a foothold, they
wandered away from God and forsook
his commandments almost with im
punity. And then God in his grac-iousrV-ss
made a covenant with man
through Abraham (notwithstanding
that Abraham did not fully follow
God's commands, but stayed so close
to the way the Father was leading
that he gained the name of "The
Friend of God") that he would re
ward them for their righteousness.
And so prosperity came to Abraham,
for like a nation, it was proven that
righteousness exalteth a man, but
sin is a disgrace to any one.
In all of history, where the people
were wholly obedient to the command
of Jehovah that they follow him. they
were signally blessed and had as their
reward peace, safety, prosperity and
happiness.
I During the many . hundreds of
years which followed the flood, the
people of the world multiplied in
numbers and in abomination. God al
lowed Joseph to be sold into Egypt
that a people might be gotten togeth
er and formed into a nation peculiar
to himself. And when, in the fulness
of time, his chosen peopl'- attained
sufficifjit iiunibr for the forming
of that nation, God reached out with
his strong arm and led the people out
of the land of bondage, under the
able leadership of Moses, another out
standing figure in Biblical history.
They were given the land of Can
naan, and so long as they continued
faithful in following Jehovah and
worshiping the true God, they were
blessed with peace and plenty. But.
eventually, they too wandered away
from his commands and brought chas
tisement on their own heads, having
to be whipped like a naughty child
for their actions.
Thus ran the history of the world,
until the people were verily a re
proach and a stench in the nostrils of
Jehovah. Notwithstand all this, we
find in John 3:16 that "God so loved
the world that he gave his only be
gotten son that whosoever believeth
on him should not perish but have
eternal life."
The conditions resembled those at
the time of the deluge, though there
was more faith in the land when it
became evident that the prophecies
which had been uttered for hundreds
f years regarding the coming of a
redeemer, were being fulfilled and
although, as of yore, countless thous
ands only scoffed, many followed the
command and were eternally saved.
In the fulfillment of the prophe
cies, Joseph became betrothed to a
maiden, Mary, who was found with
child by the Holy Ghost, and at the
calling of the people together br
Augustus Ceaser. that they might be
taxed, this man and his wife found
no place at the inn when they came
to Bethlehem, which was the subject
of last Sunday s lesson, along with
details of how they sought shelter in
a stable, where amidst lowly and
humble surroundings was born in a
manger the Christ child.
Now, we pause, to learn of the
forerunner of the Christ which was
to come, John the Baptist, who was
a cousin in the flesh of the Son of
God, and who went about preaching
and teaching of the true God, prior
to the advent of Christ.
Jesus, the True Christ
This six month we are studying
the gospel of Marcus, or St. Mark,
and as we procede, we shall find that
in his handling of the narrative of
the life of Christ on earth, he speaks
in unmistakable manner, for this was
his nature and in his work he also
had associated with his, Peter, the
uncurbable. who was that outstand
ing spokesman, being the' first to de
clare of the Master, "Thou art the
Christ, the Son of God." No wonder
we see in this gospel the direct dec
larations which are found therein.
For did he not say in the very first
verse of his gospel. "'In the begin
ning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the
Son of God." offering his testimony
that this was the very Christ which
was to com and gave the people from
their tint.
For six months last year we stud
ied the Gospel bl John, who in every
I
lesson offered testimony that Jesus
Is the very Christ. Now comes Mark
with the opening sentence of his gos
pel saying that Jesus Christ is the
Son of God.
John the Baptist
Then says Mark, "Even as it is"
written in Isaiah, the prophet, 'Be
hold I send my messenger before thy
face, who shall prepare the way. The
voice of one crying in the wilderness,
Make ready the way of the Lord;
make his paths straight.' "
Then came John the Baptist, who
came In the likeness and spirit of
Elilah, and came preaching the com
ing' of Christ, and saying unto the
people, "Oh generation of vipers who
hath warned you to flee from the
wrath to come." He was in no way
mincing the words of the message
which he had come to deliver to a
lost and dying people. He said re
garding the Master. "There cometh
one mightier than I after me, the
latchet of whose shoes I am not wor
thy to stoop down to unloose. I have
indeed baptised you with water; but
He shall baptise you with the Holy
Ghost." Meaning the Master, who
was to come and who was now about
thirty years of age, being six months
younger than the Baptist himself.
"And it came to pass in those days,
that Jesus came from Nazareth of
Gallilee, and was baptised of John
in the Jordan." Now note the direct
assertion of John the Baptist, when
Mark says. "And straightway, coming
up out of the water, he saw the
heavens opened and the spirit, like a
dove descending upon him. And there
came a voice from heaven, saying.
'Thou art my beloved son, in whom I
am well pleased.' "
Indeed, the entire testimony of the
scriptures is that Jesus is the very
Christ, the son -of God. We say read
the book of Mark, so that you will
know the entire contents, the con
text, how the narrative runs and just
what he means when he says these
things, for he surely speaks so no one
though a wayferer misrht err therein.
Know ye this, that the scriptures all
teach that Jesus is indeed the Christ,
the very Son of God, and that there
is no other name given under heaven
or among men whereby we might be
saved.
A week since we visited at the
Mynard school and found them a very
earnest and devoted school. Though
not so large in number, they are ms:
ir.g it up with the earnest manner in
which they are tackling the lessons.
This last Sunday we visited the Mur
ray Christian Bible sc hool, and found
all hustling to get the most out of
the lessons, which it seems they are
doing.
