Bible School Lesson Study!
Sunday, April 30
By L. Ncitzel, Murdock, Neb.
"Jesus Sets luw Standard of living:"
Mark 10:13:27.
We are approaching fast to the
end of Christ's ministry, only five i
months more and the cross is in sight.
Having finished his work in Galilee,
he turns east, crossing over Jordan,
fcouth of the sea of Gclilee, he enters
Psraea. This part had never been
visited by Jesus.
Luke gives us our account of the
events of this ministry up to the time
of our lesson. They include the send
ing forth of seventy traveing evan
gelists; many rich discourses espe
cially the parables of the good Sa
maritans, the great supper, the lost
sheep, the lost piece of silver, the
prodigal son (the crown of all par
ables) the unjust steward, the rich
man and Lazarns, the Pharisee and
the publican.
The opening verses cf our lesson
also formed part of Christ's teaching
in Peraea. The Pharisees came with
a tempting question regarding di
vorces. Jesus saw the trap layed for
him, and did not give a direct answer,
but let Moses answer it whom they
believed. God never intended for
man and wife to ever be separated.
Adam got the intent of God's mind
when he said: "This is now bone of
my bone, and flesh of my flesh: She
shall be called wo-man, because she
was taken out of man. Therefore
shall a man leave his father and his
mother, and shall cleave unto his
wife: and they shall be one Cesh."
Gen. 2: 27, S. Moses allowed a di
vorce only by proven adultery of
either man or wife, but no remar
riage. The children are the chief suf
ferers from the beraking up of a
home, caused by divorce. So that it
is most suitable that our Lord's clear
est and most blessed teaching con
cerns childhood should come next in
the account. "And they were bring
ing unto him, little children, that he
should touch them." They mothers
and friends bring them. Some were
infants. Not touching them because
they were sick, but to bestow a bless
ing. It cannot be too strongly em
I'basized, the bringing of children tc
Jesus. We beliove in early conversion
of children.
They do not have to go in the
wrong paths first; their render hearts
should become early the temple of
the Holy Ghost. Children consecrated
to God are under peeial care of Him.
Children are the gift of God. "Chil
dren are an heritage of the Lord."
Pa. 127:3. They are jewels entrust
ed to our care, for which parents are
held responsible; God will demand
them some day. Not all children are
brought to Jesus. Many parents take
tbera to places where Jesus can be
found, he would not go there. Even
some churches will not welcome chil
dren's voices in the church meetings,
or the presence of children in the
congregation. The disciples may
have meant well, but had they known
the Lord better, would not have been
rebuked. Even some otherwise well
meaning Christians may become a
barrier in the way of his love. For
it is the childlike spirit that will
enter the kingdom of God. For the
child is teachable, it is humble, it is
receptive, it kants to know about God
and Christ and heaven, they ask and
therefore to them i3 given.
To this condition did Jesus refer
when he said to Nicodcmus: "Except
a man be born of water the word
of God , and of the spirit of God
he cannot enter the kingdom of God."
John 3:5. Now look at this lovely
cene: "And he took them in his arms,
and blessed them, and laying His
hand upon them." Would those that
witnessed this act ever forget! Can a
soul that has passed from death unto
life, ever forget! These mothers
would tell their babies about it when
they reached home again and often
afterward.
Leaving this place a remarkable
thing takes place. A man came run
ning, as if ti was his last chance and
kneeled to him, and asked the ques
tion of eternal life. Possibly the age
of Jesus; young, rich, a ruler in the
sj-nagogue. His wealth would give
him all he could wish for. He is a
fine type of the moral man. He lived
an exemplary life; very religious,
longing for a satisfactory life, which
he did not have. "What shall I do
that I may inherit eternal life?" The
young man thought of action; Christ
must lead him on to think of being.
He knew the commandments and had
kept them, as he understood them.
"Do not defraud." He had defrauded
God, by not loving above all other
things Money was his idol. In his
heart he knew, that his religion was
defective; net satisfactory, that is
why the question "What do I still
lack?"
Give up your idol your, pet sin
sell your possessions give it away
come and follow me the price was
too great Jesus did not lewer the
standard in order to win him he
never returned. Yes, it is hard for
rich people to serve God; but not im
possible. Abraham was very rich;
Joseph of Arimathea was rich. The
disciples were astonished at the lan
guage of Jesus. "Who then can be
saved?" God can save man. "Come
unto me and learn of me."
Though your sins be as scarlet,
they ehall be as white as snow;
though they be red like crimson, they
shall be as wool." Isa. 1:18. "Be
lieve en the Lord Jesus Christ and
thou shalt be saved, and they house."
Acts 16:31.
