In this i Uh and populous 1 1 1 ttiii the lesson for consideration lo lav Is most vital, for It concerns one if the Hitidaiiunial principles which jtiderly the process of niiiiil.liid as ivell tis the Kingdom of God. 1. Cheerful Giving (vv. IT). One ol 'he dangers assailing tho early Chris ,l.in chin eh was that of division he weeii tin1 Jewish and Gentile bellev rs. One party suggested that the iieutlles ought to have n closer union Kith the .lews; on the other hand, cor .am Gentiles could not see the necessl- of the .levvWh ceremonial, and In 'his Paul agreed with them, and there 'cue they refused lo assume any nu ns essary burden. The great feasts it Jerusalem were crowded with pil grims, both Jews and Jewish Chris tians. The pllgilms were often very ,mor, tintl rallgue must have fostered dl Houses. Here then was a place where a woik of ministry to the needy might be done with the money which had been systematically gathered through the weekly contilbtitlons of Christian believers. Note how skill fully Paul appealed to these Corin thians. He recogglzes their forward ness of mind and their real (vv. 1 and 2. Am. H.). Most delicately does he compliment them upon their work, for, Mild he. "I glory in your bohnir.' He desired their collections to ho n matter of bounty, Htid not of covetous ness or extortion. Paul's principle of giving Is that It shall be u matter of free and benollcont gifts, not u matter ot covetous greed ; not a quid pro quo. He says that they who sow sparingly shall reap sparingly. II. Tho Results of Giving (vv. 8-15). The law of reaping according to the seed we sow nnd of reaping In propor tion to tho quality nnd quantity of thA seed sown Is also to be supplemented by the law of the necessity of sys tematic giving (Seo I Cor. 10 :2). Ono of the sweetest and most cheerful and Inspiring promises of tho lllble Im found In verse 8 of this section, "God Is utile." He Is utile to make nil grace ubound, and he does tills "to the bountiful giver." Nothing more surely limits the measure of grace that v receive tluiii our Donurlous, nig gardly giving (Phil. 4:11) and context). This giving of grace Is "In order that ye always having all suillclency In all things may abound unto every good work." God's abundant grace Is be Htowod upon us that we may work for ethers, und live abounding, sulllclont lives In everything. How poor Indeed our lives must appear when measured by tlii' standard of this verse. Literal ly this Is "hilarious giving." Gotl loves the full-soUled, hilarious giver who gives time and money. Such giving l.s like unto God's giving, who gave his only begotteu son. If we sow as God provides, he will multiply the seed for sowing und Increase tho fruits of our righteousness. If wo do not sow, ho will ceuso to supply. This liberality will work through us to others and thanksgiving to God on the part of those who receive (v. 11, It. V.). Such giving abounds to his honor nnd glory through the many thanks givings which it will occasion (Hob. l.'lrlfl). "The moro we give, the more God will Increase our power to give, und In this way we will be enriched In everything unto all liberality (Prov. ll:2MI.rj). The church in Jerusalem, when the saints of Corinth had given nroof bv tho ministration to their need, would glorify God for tho obedience ot the Hiitnts In Corinth and their confes sion of tho gospel of Christ, and nlso for the liberality of their contribution unto them (y. 13, It. V.). They would repuy their generosity with prayer (v. 14, It. V.) und they would long after them by raison of the grace of God which wiih In them. Paul's words about our giving with thunksglvlng to God for his unspenk ublo gift (Seo Ch. 8:0) the unspouk able gift of God, Jesus Christ (John 8:10; Itom. 8:1)1;) Is an exhortation to us. Nothing should so move us to give to others as the thought of what God has given of his very best und dearest for us. The Sunday school, as the training M'hool of the church, ought to glvo In struction net alone In salvation truth and lift; tetu hlug, but also In systematic giving. Train the children early to give to the church u portion of their substance, and tnry will learn to love It and support It In the yeats to come. Persistent practice Is the secret of mastery hero lis In everything else. Wo say: "When a rich man dies ho leaves all bis wealth behind htm." True, but It Is also truu that wo flinnge Into the currency of the coun try to which we are going the gift if uiv.ii it u imii; hi'V" tiviv GIRL NEARLY DROWNS AS FRIENDS LAUGH Others Think Expert Is Joking Un til Gallant Young Man Pulls Her to Safety.
