YOUNO PKOPI.i: AND ADULT TOPIC Tho Chniclr Which Jesus ItoqtilreH. The so-called "Sermon on the Mount" Is the king's proclamation of the laws which obtain In his kingdom. These laws do not set forth terms of salvation to sinners, hut the principles of life which shall obtain when Christ reigns on furth. I. The Characteristics of the Sub. Jects of the Kingdom (vv. 1-12). These characteristics are set forth In the nine Ileatltudes. 1. The cwnsciousness of utter spir itual poverty (v. II.) "Poor In spirit" does not moan to he without, money (Isa. (i(J:2), but to come to the end of self In u state of absolute spiritual beggary, having no power to niter one's condition or to make one's self better. 2. A profound grief because of spir itual Insolvency (v. I). .'i A humble submission to Cod's will (v. 5). The outgrowth of mourn ing over .spiritual insolvency Is meek ness. I. An intense longing to conform to the laws of the kingdom (v. ('.). o. Merciful (v. 7). The subjects of the kingdom now lake on the charac ter of the king. (J. Purity of heart (v. S). Since the king Is pre-eminently pure, the sub jects who enjoy fellowship with hlni must have heart purity. 7. Peacemakers (v. '). The one who has received the peace of Cod through Jesus Cliri.st will dliruo peace to others. .S. Suffering for Christ's snku (v. 10). The world hated Christ, the king, therefore those who rolled his spirit In tln'lr lives shall suffer perse cution (II Tim. a:12). 1). Suffer reproach (v. 11). This means suffering falsely. In such case we should glory In It, for It brings great reward In heaven. II. The Responsibilities of the Sub jects of the Kingdom (vv. 13-10). M:in is corrupt, and the world Is hi utter durkinw. The disciples of Christ are to live such lives as to pu rify and enlighten. Their responslldl I ties are set torth under tho figures of salt nnd light. 1. Salt of the earth (v. lb"). The properties of salt are (1) penetrating; (2) purifying; CO preserving. Since salt only preserves and purifies In the measure that it penetrates, so Chris tians only as they enter Into the life of the world can pteserve it from de cay. 2. The light of the world (v. 14). Light Illuminates and wurms. Tills world ls cold uud dark. The devil lias set many pitfalls and .snares. As sons of thu light we should live so as to prevent the unwary from stumbling and falling. III. The Lsws of the Kingdom (vv. 20-ls). 1. As to deeds of righteousness. They must exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees. 2. As to sanctity of life (vv. 21-2(1). "Thou shalt do no murder," means more than simply to refrain from the taking of life. Hash ftigcr is heart murder (v. 22). :. As to organlzifl life (vv. 27-.T2). The family ls the unit of society. There Is no siu Hint bo rots society as thnt against the i elation of the sex es. The two awful sins against the family are (a) adultery (vv. 27-!!0), (there Is heart adultery as well as heart murder; (b) divorce (vv. Ill, .'12). Moses, for the baldness of the hearts of the people, permitted a man In case of adultery to put away his wife iiiid give her u bill of divorce ment. I. As to oaths (vv. il.'tl 117). Speech Is tho absolute test of character. Whatever Is more than the simple loiui ol atlirmatlon oi denial conies of the lcvil. .". As to behavior toward those who do not recognize the laws of the klug- dom (vv. .'IS-IS). (1) Not tevengel'iil i (vv. Jilt, 40) ; (2) willing to do more than Is ictpilrcd (v. II); (K) chari table (v. -12) even the borrower I should not be turned away; (I) love lovvard enemies .(vv. 45-IS). Love to enemies consists, (a) In blessing them ! tliat curse us; (b) In doing good to them that hate us; (e) In praying for thosu who despltefully tisu us. God Is Everywhere. Let us remember that Cod Is at tho nciisl.orc and In the mountains Just as much as be Is In our home town and In our home church. We need to re sist the devil of license which Is al ways whispering his evil Insinuations Into tho ears of people1 tiwtiy from home. ri need religion Just as intuit In summer as wo do In winter, per haps more. .
