THE SUNDAY SCHOOL

V~ BY W. C. GOBLE. Supt. Christian Sunday School

Bartimaeus and Zacchaeus-

Golden Text.—The Son of Man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.—Luke XIX: 10. The leading thought of this lesson is that Jesus came to save the lost.

The purpose, no doubt, that the Master had in the miracle of bodily healing and in the miracle of spiritual transformation was to bless individuals upon whom the miracle was wrought, and also to show to those witnessing the infinite love of the Father and the commission of the Son. The blind man and the rich man in this lesson made the great discovery that a true King of men is one who feels for his subjects, and delivers them from that which hinders them. This lesson demonstrates the successful pursuit of religion under difficulties.

There is a striking contrast between the characters of today's lesson and the one we studied last Sunday. The young ruler was endowed with wealth, education, health, etc., while Bortimajus is poor, blind, and illiterate. No doubt the rich young ruler was held in hrgh esteem by his fellows but Bartimams wTas pitied and Zacclueus was despised by men. The people looked up to the rich young man as one approved by .Heav en, while in the the case of the blind man they were sure his affliction was to pay the penalty of sin and that the occupation of Zacchajus was such as to cause God to cast him off.

But note the differences in the outcome. The rich young ruler will not do as Jesus would have him do and so turns away sorrowful while the blind man which his vision restored and Zacchaeus with a cleansed heart both became devoted followers. If the heart is given to Jesus, there will be no trouble about the rest. it is now late in March, A. D. 30. In two weeks or less the Savior is to be nailed to the cross. Jesus and the Twelve, together with an ever increasing number of pilgrims, continued toward Jerusalem. The Jordan is crossed on ferry boats since at this season, the melting snows causes the river to rise and making it impossible to ford it. Jesus knew that the end was near and traveled the main highways giving forth his messages of love. Such is the occasion for the performance of the miracles mentioned in our lesson.

The travelers with the Master saw the gorgeous palaces, the luxuriant vegetation, etc., but Jesus saw the sin and sorrow, and his opportunity for help. Although He, Himself is soon to suffer the death of the Roman cross, yet his eyes are not blinded to the needy whom he could help. He is the same today. He has compassion for us, He laments our infirmities, our blindness, or shortness and dimness of spiritual vision.

The truths in part taught by this lesson are: We condemn ourselves to blindness and poverty spiritually if we do not seek Jesus that overcoming obstacles increases spiritual desires and strength that faith is the arm that connects man and God that Jesus passes through the prayer meeting, the Sunday school, the Endeavor society, and the preaching service and we should embrace the opportunity to see him that our wealth if consecrated to God is a great power for good that if we seek Jesus, he will seek us that we should climb above th6 cares of the world in order to see spiritual truth that the Master has entrusted to his disciples the work of seeking and saving thelGst.
