DKV&TIONAL READING: luiah M: 1-8. | ' i Jesus Faces Death . i I' \ Lgsson for Mfu-cb U, 1151 MANY a STORY has been writr ted around the theme of g man knows he has only a short I while, to live. But the best of these is the >. story of Jesus. It is the best not only because it is true; it is the M story of the best few M man known to bisto;y i\e Christians go further than'jut I. i. ; - Wc believe he was I ; - Perfection in ajl ■ his human life. Jesuy way of *** - facing death is the right way to ? face it, the way his followers too will choose. ’ • • • Heart at Leisure \ pGR QNE thing, Jesus did not try *to conceal from himself or others the fact that .he ivouid shortly die. Through all that happened; he was aware ©f bls death. He neither abut his eyes to the inevitable, ’ nor; mourned over ft. \ Now in our sad times, death m near io a* W of, the approach of death is not'something to . talk about as If it were an event of the Blot century. Death may come to any of us soon; death Is very likely to j come to! many of us soon; and >r later, death is her- s tain to come to all of us. Facing death may bring out all a man’s hidden SHfishnegs. From the i moment'he knows his days are limited, he may think of nothing bat himself and his “chances’’ to escape. ' I' I Jesus, on the contrary, under no illusions about escape, accepting . death quietly, day by day thought of others rather than of himself. * * ’ His Friends and God I MANY PERSONS, in the. felt presence of death, withdraw into themselves. They cut the ties that have bound them toothers, they set their faces “outward bound.’’ Not so with Jesus. While it was still day. he would not act as If it were night. So we find him tightening up the boqds of .friendship. It is an interesting J»6t that of all Jesus’ living days, those which were remembered bent were those which came just before bis death. Part <rf the reason for this may be that bis \ friends came closer to him In those days; there was aa inlim cy, a greater warmth, between him and his old friends than there had ever been. Even when he prayed in Gethsemane \ he was . not content to pray alone, if there was none to watch with him and in some dim way share his agonies, It was because bls friends were not " awake to his need, not because be in any way turned his back on them. j Again, we find Jesus’ prayer-life ; growing intense in those last days i and nights. Nowhere else from Jesus’ whole life is such a long prayer recorded as the one. John . puts into the story Mark tells so briefly of the last supper (John 17>. Not in JeSus’ whole life before, : though be prayed early and often, do we hear of such v agony of prayer as that in the garden before Judas came. He not onljy turned 'to his friends, and turned to God. but it is plain that he wished of all thing* fnost to bring his friends nearer to God.

Yet how many Christians are there who. if they knew death would be coming for them within the week, would think of others* spiritual welfare rather than their own? How many would help to prepare others for God, axxd not themselves alone? First, a Good Life THE pHURCH has always been a bit suspicious about "deathbed repentance.’’ We know it can be real; but over a period of two thousand years it has be«p noticed that most people who suddenly turn gbod in the presence of death are lilcely to. be just as bad as ever if death postpones his visit. ' Jesas’ fast days were not tbase of a scared naan trying to njfke jp in a lew short days the lost opportunities of « mio-spent lifetime. On the contrary, Jesus’ List days were all of a piece lyith the rest of his life. Prayer, friendships, appreciation and help of others, even sacrifice, \ were not strange to him. So with each of us. We all know how we* to live if death were hovering hear. But we shall have a hard time living and acting so. then, unless it is our habit already. It is well to pray for a "good death:" but the best way to have a good death is lirpt' Xo v live the good life r (CopyrUbX ASjl by the Division oi Christian education.

J wfc-gfcjLOP “It 1s FINISHED ” There are, in a sense, only two religions in the world — the “do” religion and the “done” religion. \ The “do” religion tells a man that he must do this .and that if he wants to get to heaven. The “done" religion teUs a man that he need do nothing, everything i* done. When Christ in His dying moments on the cross shouted “It is finished f” the redemption of every man, woman, and child ever to be born was accomplished. The payment for men’s sin had been rendered. The ransom had begn paid. AM we need do now is believe | it, accept it, trust it The Chrisi j tian message, in effect, is heaven’s receipt telling meh “Paid in full I” “It is finished I” In Christ all sins ; ■:! \ are cancelled. Os those who Have accepted heaven's receipt for cancelled sin through faitb in Christas Savior, the Bible says, ‘ There is now therefore no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.” For them all is “done.” ZION LUTHERAN CHURCH 1 West Monroe & ,111 b Sunday Services 8 a. m.- 19:30 a. m.
