Jesua concluded hit'sermon to his followers that day when he addressed them from the Horns of Hattin with a closing chapter in which he urged upon them charitable judgment. It was his habit —as it was that of so many of the teachers of his day—to illustrate his talks with parables. So at this time he warned them beware of false prophets as they would wolves in sheep's clothing. Continuing, he spoke a parable of the men who

H«v» "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing.” So spoke Jesus as he concluded his discourse in the midsummer of the second year of lus ministry.' delivering “The Sermon on the Mount" to those w ho had followed him to the Horns of Hattin. Jesus knew whereof he spake. He was surrounded by enemies on all sides. The money cjiangers whom he hail driven from the temple were ravening for him. The Pharisees were upset that their vaunted religious formulas were being discountenanced. The Sanhedrin saw its power being undermined; and the priests, who battened on the collection of the poor, were angered that their easy gains were slipping between their fingers. So they joined together and set about the task of combating the simple man of Galilee. ■ Unable to overcome him by argui meat, they turned to satire, ami ’ belittling. And when this failed them, they won their point — as • they believed —by crucifying him on Golgotha. I 'False prophets are no different in this day and age than thev l were two thousand years ago in distant Palestine. They are false prophets because they are false to their very selves. They preacii; i one thing and practice another. l j They cry "Patriotism L’ l'< Uide the fact that tliey are Committing I acts against their fellow men. j | Hypocrites to the extreme, they i i give expression to threats of dis- ■ aster and failure if they are not allowed to continue hi their wonted way.;. They are hypocrites—these false prophets—and we rnn. t guard well not to be led astray by their false teachings. We are living in a| 1 period when clear thinking is dc-| uiauded.

sand. And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and smote upon that house; and it fell; and great was the fall thereof.” When the multitude heard these words, they were in awe not only at the doctrine but with Jesus himself, for they realized that he spoke not as the scribes and Pharisees but as one having authority over them. When Jesus came down from the mountain, he

was met by a leper, who came to him Peeking to be healed. Jesus stretched out his hand and made him well. When he reached Capernaum, a Roman centurion approached him saying his servant lay dangerously ill. Jesus offered to go and cure the man. "Say only the word and he is healed.” the centurion answered. Pleased at such faith, Jesus spoke and the servant was healed.

Sunday School 11 ? QUESTIONS ? I- ________________ r The House On The Rock QUESTIONS 1. When and where did the inj. cidents of today's lesson take place? .. 2. What does the material covy er"! 3. What is the purpose of to1 day's lesson? 4. Why is it important that the t lesson should be heeded at this t time? 5. What, is a parable? 6. What parable did Christ re-' count at this time? 7. Relate it. 8. How does it apply to this lesson ? 9. Does this apply to other things besides the question of drinking? '■ 10. On what other thing did Christ lay the emphasis of warning? I ANSWERS 11. The incidents of today's ! , lesson continue that which has gone before. It is still the midsummer of 28 A. D., the second ! year of Christ's ministry, and lie is at the Horus of Hattin. preaching his sermon on the mount. 2. This is tlie third or closing L portion of the sermon. It deals ' with charitable judgment. 3. To teach the necessity of; temperance. 4. With the repeal of prohibi-j tion and the return of liquor, there I ' will be new- problems to consider and new conditions to be met. I Temperance, therefore, becomes!. 'of paramount importance in the ’ ’lves of each one of us. i 5. A parable is a short story ■ used as an example—that, is, the i ■ facts may be applied to other ■ things and to life. The parable . was frequently used by orientals in teaching. 6. Christ at this time related I, ♦he parable of the builders of two' : houses. 11 7. Briefly, the parable relates how a man built his house upon ' «and and it fell beneath the bus-, feting of the great storms. But ■, ; -ho man who built his house upon the rock had nothing to fear. It was firmly founded aud w ithstood the tempest. 8. One must build character if j one is to succeed in overcoming, ♦ emptation. Character is the pro-; duct of years of self training and I renunciation. Character becomes I i part of oneself —the solid basis : j -"i which the rest is founded. In I* -♦♦her words, character is the rockl upon which success is built. i 9. Indeed it does. In every! 1 i walk of lite, we find temptation. j it is to be found in business, in 1 I private affairs, in dealing with friends; Itnd it. is character that 1 overcomes temptation and guides ■ ‘ us aright. 1 10. Christ warned his hearers * against false prophets. It was 1 not surprising at this time, for tie was beset on all sides by those 1 who preached against him. Somo 1 of these men were eloquent. Some J were crafty. Some were wise. 11 They were banded against him in |' I a common cause. So he warned 1 'liis hearers to beware a.mj to a<- •' ! ee-pt only the truth which he <■ i brought to them. —o | r First Methodist Church C. Perry Gibbs, pastor. t I P Chiin-h School, 9:39 a. m.
