That- the mind and soul will grow, it is important that mental and soul food be taken. The Bible furnishes this food. Not to read the Bible results in the dwarf and even decadence at the. spiritual Ufa, ~ V.lO. "And the brethren sent gvay Paul and Silas by night unto Berea; wbe coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews." Sail-preservation aa well as self respect demands that when a Christian is about to bo attacked that he withdraws himself. Nothing is ever gained by a fight. Spiritual safety is found in the place of worship. . ‘ V.ll. “These were more noble than those in Thesslonlca, in that they received the word in all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were true." It is noble to have an open mind since this fact shows a real interest. To search the scriptures is to learn what God has to say that is basic. * VTI3. "TUI *» come, give attenttof to the reading, -to exhortation, to dtctxine.’* Every opportunity should be used in a study of the Bible that the understanding be r developed, qualifying one to interprcl it to others, V-H "Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was gives thee by prophecy; with the laying on i ot bands of the presbytery." One's talent, such as the ability to know God’s word, need* cultivation since it is a gift of God so indicated by the laying on of hands of recogpizbd religious leaders. V. 15. "Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all " By energetic study of the thought and spirit ' will become so influential that zithers will not only better understand the scriptures but they will accept and live them. V.M “Take hoed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them; tor in doing this thou shalt both save thyself and them that I ' it >AI I Scriptural Support < Little Mary had not been very good. and as punishment she was made to eat her dinner at a small table la the corner of the dining room.

hear thee-" To makf sure that o»e does not nseditato superficially, Paul flashes the red light—“ Take heed.” One needs to take time just to think of God as manifest in Jeans until there in an awareness ot gut and realisation of his presence m the deepened holy irupreastons and the upspriing of sacred emotions. V. 5. "I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that iq in Uk«e. which dwelt in |hy grandmother Lois, and in thy mother Eunice; and am persuaded in thee Also.” Timothy had the advantage of being well born and welt taught which increased his responsibility. V.ll. "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that neadeth hot ba ashamed, rightly dividing |he word qf truth.” Here is an exhortation to take patns in doing one's best, tor it is then one |s free from self-condemnation. V.IA "But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them.” Timothy Used at a time in which the surroundings were evil with lusts and pride and false teachers; those needed to be p screening to find trustworthy teachers. V. 15, "And thgt from a child thou hast known the scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus." The Bible is the book of authority on salvation. Note the facts in salvation: the scriptures. Chriet Jesus, and faith. All effective Bible teachings ought to be associated with one or more as these factors. V IA “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, tor reproof, tor correction, for instruction in rightoousmm.” The preceding verse han the factrs <d true wisdom which means more than a college degree ot D.D. in the making ot a qualified teacher on the subjects ost doctrine, reproof, correction and instruction in righteousness. V. 12. "For the word pf God |s quick, and powerful, apd sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow and is dtscerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." The Bible is God’s searchlight; its truths produce conviction of sin and mark a difference in a truly converted sinner. —Based on copyrighted outlines produced by the Division of Christian Education, National Council of the Churches of Christ in the U. 3.

Loson Pr«y«r: Lesson prayer: We want to be wise in making salvation the biggoet thing in our lives. We are grateful for thy Word which is able to make us wise unto salvation through faith which Is in Christ Jesus. We are thankful for the gift ot faith and above all for the gift of thy Son.
