Love So Amazing Lesson for November 13. 1949 LONG AGO riding in hi* *low chariot through the southern sands, a puzzled reader with Isaiah 53 in his hands asked the question other readers have asked ever since: Doe* the prophet speak of himself or of some

other? The answer given by Philip i see Acts 8) has been the answer of the church ever since. This prophecy can be understood only in the light from Calvary's Cross. Philip did not say. and we need not insist.

that the prophet had Jesus, and Jesus only, in mind when he wrote. What we do say is that while these words might have described some one the prophet knew, might have described the whole nation of Israel, might even have described himself, still the words make but a poor picture of any one else, compared with the picture they make of Jesus. • • The Scarlet Thread ISAIAH 53 has been in the center of the church's thinking about Christ from the beginning. It may be said to run like a scarlet thread through the New Testament. It was In the back of the minds of Paul and John and Peter alike This great prophecy sheds a light on what otherwise had been a black opaque blot—the death of Christ. What would otherwise be simply a horrible tragedy, perhaps the greatest tragedy of history, the perfect case of complete injustice, the final evidence that there Is no God. in the light of Isaiah 53 become* * center of glory. Instead of being ashamed of the cross on which Jesus died, the church sings, "In the cross of Christ I glory,” . . . "Love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all " We believe that Christ suffered not for his own but for others’ sake. Suffering, not forced but willingly undergone, suffering not as mere pain but that others might be saved, suffc.ing on behalf of other* and for love of them—this is the key to the riddle of existence, this is the key to the heart of God. • • • Not Christ Alone IF CHRISTS MEN had refused to follow where he led, if all Christians hod been willing to let him carry, alone, the burden of the u< rld's sin and grief, there never would have been any Christianity—for there would never have been Shy" Cfiristidiiv Peter and Jaine* and the rest of the a|x»tlcs would have refused to die for Jesus' sake. The noble army of martyrs would have been an ignoble army of coward* No missionary ever would have left home and comfort* and country; no mother would have laid down her life for her children; the unselfish service of those who have cared for the sick and the orphaned would never have been done: indeed. had no one ever been willing tn suffer for the benefit of others, one wonders whether the world could have even held together this long. Christ died that the world might live, yes; but others also had to die to make hl* death avail. He died for Africa, that African* might live; but African* died till men like Livingstone and fk hwrltter and manv ale-s famous man and woman also went out and lived there in lunelinrs* and died In pain. Christ died for the little children of the poor, but until the Salvation Army and others like them went down into the slums and suffered there with end for them, those poor little people died without so much as dreaming that God might love them Christ died for ell the lepers in the world; but until u Father Damien. and others no less Cbristlike. went among the outcast lexers and became outcast* themselves for the love of Christ, those lepers died in the dark. • so “Let Him Take Ilia Own Cron Daily” YES. Isaiah 53 pictures the selfsacrifice of our Lord, above all But any one who has any intention of being a true servant of God must be willing to find his own life-direc-tion right here. The world doe* not need more pain; it doe* need those who will suffer pain to serve other* in Christ * name. - ll "riX‘uX le FrxJSSunt ecnMnfcMtlen’. ?..«•«w. *, UWU Fd.fur**.
