Text of the Lesson, Luke ii, 8-20. Memory Verses, 8-10—Golden Text, Luke ii, 11—Commentary Prepared

by Rev. D. M. Stearns.

[Copyright, 1908, by American Press Association.] From the time when Adam and Eve listened to the devil rather than to God aud by one man sin entered into the world and death by sin (Rom. v, 12) the god of this world, the devil, has been blinding people’s eyes to the truth and to the love of God, always setting before them some way which he In sists Is better than God’s way; hence all the sin of which we read In all the Bible story and in the whole history of the race. The alternate lesson for to day tells how even Solomon, so beloved and blessed of God, was turned away from Him by the women of other nations, and by them and their

M addex, were cal led home on ihe I ***£ E° r d God of Israel (I Kings xi

Rev. J. R. Ferguson Dead, The funeral of the Rev. John R. Ferguson of Franklin, one of the oldest ministers of the Indiana A. M. E. Church, was held last Wednesday. His death occurred Dec. 14, after a lingering yiness. He was born in Warren county, Ohio, in J832, and came to Indian in 1847, joined the church in 1854 In 1863 he was married to Mrs. Elizabeth Hunt, in Rnsh Co., who iwith two daughter, still survive him. In 1873 he was admitted^to the conference by Bishop Waymon, and during the 30 years of his itinerancy he served 26 dif ferent church. In 1894 he retired to the superanuated roll. He had lived in Franklin for 18 years, and it was in Franklin where he held his first charge 30 years ago. The funeral was preached by Rev. M. Lewik, assisted by the paster, Rev. C. E. Hardimon and Presiding Elder Hunter. Rev. Geo. H. Shaffer also spoke of the early lifeoi the deceased and his Christian qualities. The honorary pall bearers were Revs. Cottman, P. H. Lewis, Sampson, Hunter, Shaffer and Hardimon. The burial was at Franklin. Resolutions of respect and condolence were read by Miss Hattie Fossett.

In all the history of the world there has never been but one who always resisted the devil and listened only to God, and of Him we learn as to the beginning of His humanity In our lesson today. He was with the Father before the world was. By Him and for Him were all -things created. He appeared In human form to Abraham, to Joshua, to Gideon, to Manoah and his wife and to others. He was typified In every sacrifice appointed by God from the shedding of blood In Eden by His own hand to provide redemption clothing for Adam and Eve all the way down to Golgotha. He was set apart before the foundation of the world, but was manifested In the fullness of time, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law (I Pet. i, 20; Gal.

Iv, 4, 5).

Moses and all the prophets wrote of Him as the only Redeemer, the Messiah of Israel, the one to rule the world In peace and righteousness (Luke xxiv, 27, 44). From the days of Malachi, who said, “The Lord whom ye seek shall suddenly come to His temple” and “Behold I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord” (ill, 1; Iv, 5), there had been no further message from heaven for over 300 years. But one day while a certain priest was officiating before God In the temple an angel appeared to him and said that through him and his wife the herald of the Messiah should come, who would go before Him in the spirit and power

of Elijah.

Six months later the same angel, Gabriel, was sent from heaven to a humble home in Nazareth to a virgin called Mary with the most wonderful inessage ever given to a woman In the whole history of this world (Luke i, 3033). In simple, childlike faith Mary listened to the wonderful message and said, “Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word.” It had been foretold that the Messiah should be born of a virgin and thus the word of God be literally fulfilled that He should be the “seed of woman;” also that He should be born In Bethlehem of Judea (Isa. vil, 14); Gen. iii, 15; Mic. v, 2). In our lesson we see God, who watches over His word to perform it (Jer. 1, 12, R. V.), bringing all tilings to pass just, as He had said. A decree from the world ruler, who knew not God, caused Mary to be In Bethlehem at this particular time, and while there she brought forth her firstborn son in a lowly place among cattle and used a manger as His cradle (verses 7, 12. 10), for there was no room for them in the inn. He came from the glory of heaven. His Father's home, the holy angels and the great company of the redeemed, and there was no welcome for Him on earth except from His mother and Joseph, and those few shepherds, and Simeon and Anna, and ^hose wise men from the east, and a few others. But all heaven was interested. An angel came with his glory of heavenly light and told these shepherds of. the great event; then a multitude of angels praised God in these words: “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men” (verse 14). Then the angels returned to heaven, and the shepherds went and found it just as the angels had said. To this day how little interest Is taken on the earth in heavenly things, the god of this world leading his followers to cry, “Let us alone,” but God has always held a few like the shepherds and the others, whose hearts are with Him by His grace. Notwithstand-" Ing all hindrances, the child who was born of Mary shall yet reign over the house of Jacob and over all the earth In righteousness, and His church shall reign with Him. Note the angel’s “fear nots” (i, 13, 30; 11, 10) to the Lord’s people and study the words frojep Gen. xv, 1, to Rev. 1,17, and if a child of God appropriate them, for God does not give a spirit of fear (II Tim. i, 7). The good tidings of great joy are for all people, but what a large proportion of the human race have passed away and are passing away without hearing the good news. “Is it nothing to you?” In all His life He glorified God, anfi by His finished work He gives peace to all who receive Him. The shepherds did not question the angel’s message, but said, ‘‘Let us go and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known t to us.” Having heard amd believed and seen, they made it known abroad. Mary kept aud pondered in her heart all these things.
