| Comments Creamed Comments on the Sunday School Lesson, Th? People at Worship, Ex. 29:43-46; 35'21-29, for Sunday, November 25. ,We have here the democratic procedure laid down by God in building and adorning the tabernacle. Thd church Is a. zealous, devoted group of believers who work wtth God Joyfully. V. 43. “And there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle Wfl| be sanctified* by my glory." Then, as now, the church Is a consecrated spot where God meets, in a V?ry intimate with his peopl?. It is the Spirit of God alone thas sanctifies the serv»ice. • - T. ' s v V. 44. “And | will sancUfy the tabernacle of the con jrefcation, ihd the altar: I will sanctify also both Aaron and his sons, to minister to me in the priest’s office.’’ Having gone through thik'ceremony, Aaron and his sons were the most important men |n thp community. Then, as now, there jaiust be ministers to give ful| time;:to prayer and worship and to leading the people. V. 45. ‘ Ams I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God ” God’s purpose is realized when he can’ dwell with his peo pie. His presence in the tabernacle foreshadows the presence of Christ in the human temple—the heart. V. 46. “And they fchall know that I am the Lord their God, that brought them fprth out of the land of Egypt, that | may dwell among them: I am the Lord their God-” They were always to remember their liberation; from EgVpt and God’s presence yith them. 'God will bless dll who give him habitation. ? V. 21. “AndJ they came, even’ one whose - heart stirred him up, and- every one’ whom his spirit made willing, and* they brought the Lord’s offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his servite ( and fbr the holy garments.” AU who understood the meaning and glory of the tabernacle gave willingly the best he had/ wa * * s “ ave P e °P le provide tor the|r own needs. V. . 22. “And they came, both men and womed, as many i-.s were willing heaftedjand brought ’bracelets, and earrings, and rings, and tablets, all of gold: and every man that-offered, offered an offering of. gold unto the Lord.” Whence these materials? God in anticipation of these needs had It matters not in what difficult position you mgy be, there is always away out. Just go on doing your best as you know it. Once there were two frogs that fell into a pail of milk; it looked difficult, even impossible, to get 'out.. The one frog gave up and drowped, but the other one just kept paddling, trying to get out, and ere long he found that he had churned the milk to a hunk of butter, upon which he crawled. ■;r ' * ' ■ " ■■ ■ I J Do You anow Answered 1.

— r , n . ..... commanded the people through i Moses to ask the Egyptians for gifts to be used now.'The people g4te both treasure and efforts; \the church then belonged to them, not Just to the l?aderfc. ‘' ( V. 23. “And every man with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlef, and fine Ilbeu,' and ‘ goat’s hair, and red skins’pt and badgers” skins, brought them.” The most precious place in our lives deserves the best we own. The linen was for Curtains; goat’s hair J an& hides for tent coverings. ' ' V. 34. “fcvefybne that did offer I an offering of silver arid brass brought the Lord’s offering: and t every man wljh whom was found } shittim wood for ariy’ work of the r service, brought it.” The silver and t brass were-for vessels for the altar, I sockets of various kinds, and' decorations of walls and pUlap. j V. 25. “And all the women that L were wise hearted did. spin with their hands, and brought that which 5 they had spun, both 6f blue, ahd of i purple, and of scarlet, and of fine ( linen.”* Tile wise-hearted, skinful . women, organized un auxiliary and , contributed th4iV thleiits. Worship J Is expressed by work as well as giV- . ing. V. 26. “And all the women whose ’ heart stirred them up in wildom spun goat’s hair.” It seems f that* goat’s hair, difficult, to spin, was , assigned to the most skillful wo- , men. b V, Vs. 2t, 28. "And the - rulers brought onyx stones, and stones to , be set, for the epho<, and for the breastplate; And spice, and oil for the light, and for she anointing oil, and for the sweet incense.” “rulers” were the elders and other family heads and tribal leaders. Being men of means arid of superior l character and influence, they were to supply the most expensive gifts. The spice, oil. and incense were for anointing the priests and for burning on the altar. V. 29. “The children of Israel brought a willing offering unto the Lord, every man and woman whose heart made them willing to bring for all manner of work, which the Lord had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses.” This is a splendid illustration of what willingness and cooperation op the part of a united people can accomplish: All this resulted from their deep thanksgiving—Especially for the deliverance from the bondage of Egypt. This, and God’s presence with Them, they were never to for- . get. ’ '' ' ‘ ’ —Based on copyrighted outlines produced by the Division of Christian Education, National Council of i the Churches of Christ in the [ U.S.A., and used by pertpissioti. . - Do You Know ■' 1.

place and meaning of character, and since much in the make-up men, and especially world leaders, Is bad, it is imperative that something should take place in transforming character.
