HKFBKENCE MATERIAL—Mark » 11 Tim. PRIMARY TOPIC—God Take* Elijah tv Heaven. JUNIOR TOPIO-EllJah Taken Up Into Heaven INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Jehovah e Champion Elalted. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Dtvln* Approval ot Paltbtul Rervlo*. I. God Revaal* to Elijah Hl* Approaching Raptur* (v 1). It was made known to Elijah that he was to go to heaven by a whirlwind. There 1* a striking correspondence between his life and his homegoing. Much of his life was characterised with the rash of the storm, so God chose to take him home to himself tn the whirlwind. As a reward for his faithfulness, God lifted the prophet over death Into heaven. Elijah did not choose the time of his home-going, but was ready. 11. Elijah's Closing Ministry (w. 2-8). Knowing that the time of bls homegoing was near, he did not change hta manner or method of life, but thoughtfully and calmly pursued his customary duties. 1. Visits the schools of the prophets (w. 2-8). At the Lord’s direction he went to give his farewell counsels to the young students whom he had been training and upon whom the future of the nation politically and religiously so largely depended. He made regular rounds In visitation and instruction. Schools were located at Gllgal, Bethel and Jericho. Hts educational work shows him to have been not merely an iconoclast, but a statesman of a high order. 2. Trains Elisha to be his successor (vv. 2-8). There was a real friendship between Elijah and Elisha, though the one was old and the other young. Elisha came Into the life of Elijah In the field when Elijah called him from the plow (I Kings 19:19-21). Elisha clung to his master to the very last tn spite of three urgent requests for him to remain behind. These tests were somewhat like those of tho Master with Peter (John 21:15-17). The great object was to get him ready to take up the work which Elijah was to lay down. The order of progress of the Journey indicates, says Scofield, “the experience of every child of God who enters Into a vital experience of God’s beat. That walk began at Gllgal. The typical significance of Gllgal cannot be mistaken by any reader of Joshua. Gllgal was the place where a redeemed people rolled awny the reproach of Egypt (Josh. 5:1-11). “The next stage was Bethel—house of God —the place of vision, of spiritual insight, for Bethel was the place where Jehovah gave Jacob the great ladder vision (Gen. 28:1-19). Ho must go on from Bethel to Jordan. Jordan stands for the New Testament truth, crucified with Christ. There, on the resurrection side of Jordan, the gift of power awaited the prophet." 111. Elijah’s Raptur* (w. 9-11). L ElUba’s request of Elijah (v. 9). The walk of Elisha with Elijah from Gllgal to Jordan has prepared him for the final question of Elijah before his rapture. Elijah now knew that It was safe to allow Elisha to choose for himself. Elisha made a noble request —did not ask for riches, honor or position. He supremely desired the qualifications which would enable him to worthily succeed Elijah. Curiously enough, however, Elisha performed twice as many miracles as Elijah. 2. The condition of receiving was steadfastness and perseverance (v. 10). He must have faith in the invisible life in order to have power for public ministry. 8. Elijah’s rapture (v. 11). It seems that he went to heaven in a chariot of fir* enveloped by the whirlwind. Elijah underwent that change which ail believers shall experience at the appearing of Christ (I Cor. 15:51, 52). IV. Th* Spirit of Elijah Upon Elisha (w. 12-15). 1. Elisha’s cry (▼. 12). He cried after Elijah, “The chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof!” This shows the value of a godly man to his country. It implies that Elijah was the true national defense. Godliness and character are more Important than annles and navte*. 2. Elisha uses the power (w. 18, 14) He had faith to put the power to test. 8. The spirit of Elijah on Elisha (v. 15) This was confirmed by the sons of the prophets. A Prophecy of Christ And th* angel of the Lord protested unto Joshua, saying. Hear now, o Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that alt before thee: for, behold. I will bring forth my servant the branch. In that day, salth the' Lord of hosts, shall ye call every man hla neighbor under the vine and under the fig tree.—Zechariah 8:6-10. r Suffering.

Don’t resist because life is more valuable than money, and most of the present day thugs will kill unhesitatingly, he advises. It’s not a coward, but a prudent man who runs from robbers. To know how to avoid hold-up men one must first know how they operate,” Hughes told the United Press. "Ninety per cent of the robberies are by auto bandits, who swoop down on a lone pedestrian at a lonely 4pot. If the intended victim is alert, he will turn about and be ready to flee the instant one starts toward him or says ‘hands up.’ Robbers will not shoot at a running man. When in strange neighborhods keep to car lines as much as possible. Look around before starting along any other street. Be sure no one is following. Keep to the outside.of the walk. If someone emerges from a hallway or gangway, that leaves at least the width of the walk as a running start. If suspicious characters approach, cross to the other side of the street. If they do likewise, turn and run, not forgetting to yell for police.” The public can be of great assistance to the polce in making robberies upnprofitable, Hughes states. These are a few ot the rules that may be followed: 1. Don't carry large sums of money or valuable jewelry at night. 2. Be always on the alert for “stick-up men;” by anticipating them you man circumvent them. 3. Don’t resist, if caught unawares, as the “drop" is on you. 4. Run if you have the opportunity on being accosted. * THE CONFERENCE FINISHES WORK (Continued from page one) signed to insure peace in the far east : brings to an end all the deliberations | of the great conference.
