Perhaps the hist way to teach this lesson will be to note the message of the Individual piophets. I. The Mcssaoe of Isaiah (Na i;o:i:i). 1. Its Central Fact (v. 1). Israel's light, her lledeeiner, has come. The primary inclining of this Is not the in carnation of the Hcdeemer, hut His manifestation in glory and power as He comes back to this earth to reign as Israel's King This glorious fuct is presented under the llgure of a bright .sunrlslng. It will be u glorious morning without clouds dawning upon u (lark w oi Id. 2. The Ulnglng Summons (v. 1). Messiah himself calls Israel to arouse herself fie.n her Ion: sleep of In dllTeniue and r.hlne forth hi the glnrj of her glorious king. 3. The D.irUcncd F.nrih (v. 2). In spite of all the progress of the arts and sciences spiritual darkness blindness touching spiritual things has settled down upon the earth. It will be peculiarly gioss In the last days. It can only be dispelled by the glorious appearing of the Lord. 4. The messed Kesult (v. 3). The (entile nation shall come Into the light, being uttracted to Zlon by the appearing of the Lord. In the midst of such darkness the sudden appear ing of the light shall attract the na tions nnd draw them to Jerusalem. II. The Mintage of Jonah (Jonah 4:10, 11). Jonah was comninnded by the Lord to go to the wicked city Nineveh and proclaim its destruction In forty days. He started In die opposite direction In order to escape this unpleasant task. A storm came up and the superstitious suitors threw him overboard. He was swallowed by a great fish and after three days and nights was cast upon the shore. Having learned thu needed lesson he went to Nineveh and preached with inch earnestness that the whole city repented. The mercy shown by the Lord In sparing this wicked city so angered Jonah that he went out of the city and improvised u shelter where he could see whether Ood would really destroy Nineveh. To protect tho prophet, God made a gourd to (julckly spring up and throw a shade over him. When the gourd died and left Jonah exposed to tho burning sun he prayed for death. The particular message of Jonah Is thnt (Sod is great in mercy to all the na tions when they penitently turn unto Him from their slrs. III. The Mausage of Mlcah (MIruh 4: 1-3). In Ibis message the prophet portrays the blessings of the Messiah's king dom In Hik la'st days. Three thing are predicted: 1. The Siiptemacy of Ills Kingdom (v. 1). It shall be exalted above ull the kingdoms of the earth, its glory Miall attract the people from afar. 2. The Uxtent of It (v. 2). Many nations shall come with the urgent re quest thnt others accompany them. Tho kingdom of Messiah shall be uni versal, It shall extend from sen to sea nnd from the river to the ends of the earth. II. It Sliall Krlug Peace (v. 3). Kn nilty will then be taken from men's hearts nn-1 they will love each other. When their honrts are changed they will no longer wage war against each other, they will oven destroy their Implements of warfare. War will con tinue till men's hearts are regener ated. The way to get wars to cease Is to get men to love Jesus Christ. IV. The Message of Zephanlah (.eph. 3:0). Kcphnnhih declares that following tho Judgment upon the nations God will turn thu people from their Im pure speech so that they may call upon lllm. Ilo declares that God's will Is that all nations turn from their filthy conversation and call upon Him. Ho desires that nil nations should como unto lllm. Christianity. In order to abolish Christianity tho one thing needful Is to get rid of Sun day. George Holyoake. To Appreciate Institutions.
