I The Day Os Suffering. .Mark 14:-32-34, 44-4 f; IS: 1-5 for Sundv. May 31. AH night Jesus had been subjected to tautwe, trials, and tnaulto, culminating in the final word from the procnator. Pilate, who was.uri?«i against his better Judgment to pane the sentence of d.atii on J?esue t. 32. "And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he sailh to his dlacipliM. Sit ye here, while I shall pray." Likely Jesus had prayed at this very place many times before; and so, in times of distress. It was very natural for him to go to Gethsamane. Too many pray only when trouble comes. In Christian love there is a tie that binds, drawing Christian friends to each other In times of suffering. How nweesary It Is that in health Christian ties be formed. v. 33. 34. "And he taketh with hfm Peter and James and John, and liegan to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy." Among our friends It Is quite natural to have an inner circle, friends especially dependable. it was not the approaching physical death and suffering that caused Jesus to be "sore amazed and to be very heavy.” It is not human for us to grasp the meaning of his atonement, but we m iy consider how his was a suffering love, a yearning that In his dying for the sin of others a bet’er world might be the result; something akin to the mother who is suffering in giving her boys to her country, longing that a better world will follow the present crisis. v. 44. "Ant! he that betrayed him had given (hem a token, saying, whomsoever I shall kiss, the same is he; take him and lead him away safely," It Is mere speculation to answer why Jesus ever cal'ed Judas to be a disciple The point is that be was unture. and in him is pictured the helnousneM of sin that marks not only those generally recognized as wicked but also the professedly good man. See how sneaking sin Is. v. 45. "And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him and salth, Master, master,and kissed him." The tender token of affection was used by Judas as a means of a great wrong, ft is terrible to be unture to a friend but it Is worse by the use of apparent friendship to make a mockery of religion. v W. "And they laid their hands on him and took him." The soldiers under the direction of Pilate followed the reupted leader, Judas, and did the work for whim they were called The evil of war Is not In the soldiers who must do as ordenkl bin In the bad leader. It was Judas that ought to have been executed. But note that finally Chrltrt won and Judas lost out so badly that no one today wants to bear his name. v. 1. "And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate "The unfaithful religious lead?*? in Christ's day were his greatest enemies. There is a call today for .CTirlstlans to be sincere, and faithful men and women. Just how much the cause of the present war can be traced to us Christians who failed to live our best for God can not be estimated. Sorely we ought to live our Christianity In great earOMtnesa. v. 2. And Pilate ask 'd nim. Art thou the King of the Jews! And he answering said unto him. Thou gayest IL" Jesus' answer was an acknowledgment that be was King of CHURCH PAGE SPONSORS THE FIRST STATE BANK General Banking O—O—HOLTHOUSE DRUG CO. Highoct Quality • Lowest Prices -0 OR H.

I—the Jews This fact aroused in Pilate fear that he might have in Jesus a eompc'titor. A Christian confession never stops to count the cost of telling the truth. v. 3. "And the chief priests accused him of many thing-, but he 'answered nothing.” When once en•emiea get started there is no end to what they may say and do; hence, the best way to meet them is to say nothing. v. 4. 5 "And Pilate answered him again, saying. Answereth thou nothing? Behold h<rw many things they witness aguinot thee. But Jesus answered nothing; so that Pilate marveled. "Strength of character is seen in quietness and peace in the face of raging accusations. Hate must be met with love if we, as individuals or as nations, hope to win. o The "t’nited Presbyterian” declares that In New York's metropolitan area there are easily .3000 Chinese boys and girls, ant! that during the past eight years there have been but two cases of Juvenile delinquency among them. Investigators looking Into this remarkable record learned that the Chinese people kept sacred this precept by Confucius. "The misconduct of the child is the fault of the parent.” Christian songs have been recorded In native African dialects and made Into phonograph i ecords through rh* ln«tum»n!alfty of th® Family Bible League of Chicago, and have luen distributed in African villages. In some sections almost every village has at TMswone phonograph, purchased from Arab traders.

Fourteen children were fitted with glasses. SI were treated with x-ray. and dental cars was administered to 38. The Christian t’nfty Movement among the churches of all lands is the evidence of a very wide desire to bring together the a< pa rated branches of the Chiistian church. To some it means little more than closer cooperation. Others contemplate some form of federal union in whkh the participating churches wiH retain a large >measure of independence white uniting in all <-ommon aims.
