—i , i i ip ■ I Comments I on &Bz. sSSA j; Creamed comments on the Sunday’ school lesson, Jesus liemands ‘Sincerity, Matthew 6:1-8, 16-18, 22- > 24. for Sunday, October 19. j These vetses from the Sermon on the’ Mount, set forth Jebus’ demand for sincerity in our religious lifo4*-that we act from ri|ht iriptives, seeking only from pure, honest hearts the approval of God and not the praise of men. V,l. “Take heed that ye do not yodr rigttteousinear before hien, to he seen of them: 61se ye have no reward with your Father who is .in heaven." Jesus does nt>t Command us to bfe liberal towkrd the poor, but assumes that if we aye religious we ifrill be*, hence, tells us our giving jean be done, yes, in public, as well as in private, if ' &one from thd fright motive. V. 2. “When therefore thou doest alms, sound not, a trumpet before thee, as the hyprocrites do In the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, The hive received their reward.’’ Don’t make a ndise or show of our generosity. Tire hypocrite appears to be relig- ' ious, but is more interested in winning praise of men than in i helping the poor. I.Vs.M. "But when thou doest alms, let hot thy left hand know What thy right hand doeth: That thine aims may be in secret: and thy Father who seeth in secret fehall recompense thee.” Give alms as serfretly as possible; God will £ee. Since and unselfish qharitv, only, springs from true religious faith. ’ V. 5. “And when ye pray, ye shall not be as the hyprocrites: for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of tire streets, that they may be sQpn Os men. Verily I say unto yoh, they have received their reward." Prayer is . communion with God and, not a display of piety before mem Jesus c'Ohdemns ostentatious praying which is not backed by prayer in secret. i. ‘ V. 6.. “Rut thou, when thou prayest, z enter into thy inner chhmber. and having shut thy dbor. pray to thy Father who is ill secret, and thy Father . /. shall recompense the?." We are ito pray in any place where we can be alone with God:

otherwise, secret prayers will not long be maintained. Jesus arose early and went to the mountains. We should pray in the morning and evening, and when in perplexity. V 5.7,8. “And in prkying use not vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do: for they think they shall be heard tor their much speaking. Be not therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need\ Os, before ye ask him.” Prayer depends not upon words but upon our desire to be alone with God, and our trust in Him. He knovvs what we need. ‘ V. 16. “Moreover, when ye fast, be not; as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: tor they disfigure their faces, that they may be seen bf men to fast. Verily I say ‘unto you, They have received their reward.*'- Fasting as a religious ordinance is the expression of grief for sin which destroys naturally the body appetite. The JeWs were desirous of mgn’s approval;; hence, they lost God’s. V5.T7.18. “But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thy head, and wash thy face: That thpu be not seen of men to fast, but of thy Father who is in secret: and thy Father . . . shall recompense thee.”Tf you are really sorty for sin and want to express deep feeling toward God, be natural in dress and appearance; God will see jyou and reward ypu. J | V 5.22,23. ‘‘The lamp of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of tight. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be hill of darkness, how great is the darkness!" The eye'guides the body; fix it On a definite object, you will go thei4. in the Christian life, have a single purpose, a clear and definite vision, which is sincerity, hnd you will not mislead others. V. 24. “No mgn can serve two masters: for. either he will hate the one, and love the oi‘ else he Will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannbt serve God and' mammon.? Both God and mammon demand complete, undi_vided loyalty; Slaves banno? choose to serve two masters. The service of God is self-dedicatjoii and sefl-sacrifke; that of mammon. self-assertion and selt-glori-fication. —Based on copyrighted outlines prd.ouced by the Division of Christian Education, National bouncil of the Churches df (Christ in the U.
