Creamed comments on the Sunday School Lesson, Jesus the Saviour of Men, Hebrews 2:9-5:14, for Sunday. July it- —The Rev. D. Carl Voder. The Book of Hebrews was written to faithful and highly educated Jewish Christians who tired to be loyal both to the ceremonial law and to Christianity. So. the author of the Hebrews wrote respecting the priesthood and ceremonial law. hut showing that Christ, the great High Priest of God. superseded all others, in whom, all their faith could be put Re suffered, identifying humself with ali men. He was honored of God as men’s perpetual High Priest, now wtih God. as Saviour and Advocate, worthy of all was made a little lower than the allegiance and obedience. Ch. 2:v.9. "But we see Jesus, who crowned with glory and honor: that angels for the suffering of death, he by the grace of God should taste words. "We see Jesus.” Without i death." The great theme is fa the , arguing. Jesus was to be seen in identifying himself with all men; he suffered as a man and died as a Son of God. : —y, 10 For it became him, tor whom are all tbiags. and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory to make the captain of their salvation perfect through j, sufferings." Jesus was jin the hu-j man level in that he was like men . because he could and did suffer ■ as a man. This could not be said of any other high priest. V. 11. “For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are call one; for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren.” They with him are one, sons of God. Christ by nature, men by "grace. V. 12. “Saying I will declare thy . name unto my brethren, in the “ midst of the church will 1 sing f praise to Thee.'.’ This is a quotas lion from Psalm 22.22. Th,e praises I to God sung by David were how 1 _ sung by the Messiah, in which! praise all men ought to join. V. 13. “And again. I will put my trust in him. And again, I and the ' children which God hath given me.” Referring to Isaiah 8:17,18, the author lifts the word "I” as Christ, men as God's children hut - as his brethren. Through Christ " men heepuie God’s children, and, when they become God's children, they become his brethren. Ch. 4: V. 14. “Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens. Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast' our profession." Because Christ is exalted now in heaven, he represents the highest possible priest- ■ hood. The ( Hfebrew Christian be- ■ in seven heavens. Jesus went through all of thm. Men are to think of heaven and Christ. V. 15. “For we have not a high r priest which cannot be touched by the feeling of our infirmities, but, was in-all points tempted as we ’ , are. yet without siu.” Jesus dealt with certainties and possibilities. Jesus was susceptible to temptations just as ajl men are. He was • sure of the consequences of sin; t he was also ure of God's will. He would choose just as every man must choose. Man's virtue was as that of Jesus in making wise choices. There is no sin to temptation; the sin consists to yielding to sin. , V. 16. “Let us therefore come baldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find . trace to help in time of need.”,

Here is the great encouragement to pray, knowing that Christ is sympathetic and at the same as a High Priest, he comw to our aid. Ch. 5: V.7. “ho in the days of hi? flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears linto Him who was able to save him from death and was heard in that he meared;” Here is emphasised the fact that, human-like, He suffered and prayed in the garden of Gethsamane tor a removal of the approaching pain of death. God answered his prayer by giving him strength' for that hour. Jesus had ar goodly fear, wanting above every thing else V. K ‘ Though he were » Son. to do God’s will. things whieh he suffered.” The yet learned he obedience by the test of obedience is suffering in order that God's will be done. V. 9. “And being made perfect, he became the -author of eternal salvation unto al Ithem that obey him.” Jesus tasted death for every man. He took the sting out of death. To do this, he suffered] shame so that physical death has no shame, no stiug. jUMWlfcßlo el A new inquiry into the Christian attitude toward war and peace was approved by the World Coun- | cil of Churches' executive commiti tee which met in Australia. Gentian sources estimate that about 60,000.000 people over the world have already seen the Martin Luther film. _ , The Hungarian Communists have taken new measures to keep children from atteßdlnfr-church on. Sundays. The - central Committc- ■ of the Hungarian Communit Youth organization Js devoting at least ; two Sundays a month to indoctrinjMtioa.ef weutK. '■ ! The World Council of Churches' executive committee issued a statement protesting the closing down by the Spanish government of the Evangelical Theological Seminary in Madrid. A series of fifty-four church and group life laboratories are scheduled for the next three years by the Protestant Episcopal Church. The laboratories will provide basic training in Christian education tor 3.5 W clergymen and professional lay church workers. ! Daily religious exercises, including Bible reading in all grades, has been made compulsory in Manitoba schools. Under new regulations announced by provincial authorities, the Bible must be read at least once a week in grades one to four; three times weekly in grades five and six; and daily in . higher. grades. In no case, howev|er. are the exercises to consume more than ten minutes of classroom time. Schools may be granted exemption from the ruling where the local school board passes an annual bylaw against such religious exercises. Pupils may be excused at their parents’ request. Previously, swh exercises were only hid on specific instructions from the local schoof board. You cannot rup away from weakness; you must sometime fight it out or perish. Tomorrow is the graveyard of great possibilities. >

Leonardo da Vinci, one of the three greatest painters the world has known, and a remarkable success in five other fields of activity, once said, “Oh. God. thou givest everything for the price of an effort," _ ’ The fact of-«M human progress is contained in that statement. Our petition should always be to "enlarge" ourselves to meet the experiences of life. We cannot expect to> strengthen our muscles unIss we use them in ways increasingly difficult, and we can never, become greater than we are unless we strive always to express a greater degree of the qualities that make for success. We should pray, not for greater opportunities, but ratber for strength to make the most of the opportunities at hand. Instead of praying for more wages, let us pray for more earning capacity. The former will naturally follow the latter. Do You Know Answered 1. Two thousand. 2. He healed his daughter. 3. A woman with an issue of I? blood. 4. Peter. James and John. 5.
