INTERNATIONAL SfiNWSdlOOl , Lesson (By H O. SELLERS, Director ,of Evening Department The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) LESSON FOR DECEMBER 22 FOR AMD AGAINST HIM. »> LESSON TEXT—Luke 9:49-62. BOLDEN TEXT—“He that is not against us is for us.”—Luke 9:50. This lesson naturally falls into three divisions: I. The mistaken zeal xof the disciples of Jesus, vv. 49,50; 11. The intrepid zeal es Jesus, vv. 51-sti, and 111. The lack of zeal on the part of some would-be followers of Jesus, vv. 57-G2. 'Evidently monopolistic ideas are rot a modern development. The desire to control all religious authority has given rise to the most damnable blots on the history of the Christian • church. Christian intolerance is one of the devil’s sweetest morsels. “And John answered” not the, impetuous Peter. Who it was that had . spoken we do not know, but evidently it was Jesus. Two things are without dispute: (1) The unknown one was doing the work, and (2) he was giving Jesus the glory. Luke 10-17. Whether lie ceased at the command of John we cannot say. It has been suggested that could V ' have heard the tony ot John’s voice perhaps wo should have gathered that John was not quite pure ( he had done.the right thing, but lie is frank and tells Jesus why he gave Iris command, viz., “because he followed not with us.” ' _ Work in Christ’s Name, This spirit has always been one ol the serious drawbacks in the advancement of the kingdom. Belong to our party, follow our methods, or else quit working. There are. of course, wrong methods which will never produce right results, but if a man is do • ing Christ’s work and doing it in Christ’s name we need to beware of allowing selfishness, the traditions of men. or the fact that “we never saw it on this wise” to allow us to hindei that man in his work, see Mark 9:39 41. Scholars are divided as to the interval of time between verses 50 and 51. but the second section is a wonderful illumination of the sort of zeal Jesus desires in liis followers. Verse 51 is one of the most sublime in the entire Bible. Where can we find any - thing like it? Jesus saw not the. bick erings of the disciples asto place and power; he saw not the slights cast j upon him by both Jew and Samaritan; Jesus saw Jerusalem and beyond that > Calvary, and as steadfast as a flint “he set his face to go to Jerusalem.’ All of redemption, all of Pentecost all of “this age” and the glorious con I of “this age-” is bound uj 'in that intrepid zeal of him who when | “the days were well nigh come that j he should be received up” set his face I “steadfastly.” As Jesus began this ; journey he “sent messengers • before j his face,” v. 52. That same glorious ; privilege is ours today, Matthew 28:. 19. It is a great opportunity and 8 solemn duty. Certain of the Samaritans refused ’* + o receive him and his party. This . time John has another to,3gpeak with him; James. They again show the spirit of intolerance and to it thej add that of vindictiveness, As we gc before him to prepare the way are* we entirely free fre >n making a similat mistake? These Samaritans acted ir ignorance. Perhaps, as revealed, in v ■ 53, they saw that he did not intend tc go to their village anyway (see disc John 4:4042). Jesus this time re buked in the disciples- this spirit oi ; censoriousness and pride. We need i to remember his constant emphasis I .ipon humility. Many a personal work 1 ?r becomes angry with those whc ! ’ail to accept Jesus and exhibit this ; spirit. Let him remember that he , A will not receive commendation for his seal. but rebuke. “And they went tc mother village.” The day of fina. judgment had not yet arrived; These ■ people simply did not receive him; the day of opportunity was not yet a> an end. What a contrast is here shown between the spirit of Jesus and that-of his disciples. It is our privi lege to be his heralds. Let us be verj careful not to assume authority whict rightfully belongs to him. ° Stories of Three Men. In the third section we have before us the stories est" three men when Jesus'met, each of whom lacked suf flcient zeal to become his true follow ers. The first impulsively answer? 'some emotion of his heart and as sures Jesus that he will follow “whith ersoever thou goest.” Jesus did not rebuke him, for the man had but little realization of what was implied. “I’ll go with him through the garden,” we sing glibly. Let us pause and honest ly answer the question, “Will I go?’ “Am I willing to pay the price?’ (John 15:20 and I. Peter 2:31.) He * who had set his face steadfastly sim ply opens as it were the deep lonell ness of his heart and gives this mar a faint suggestion of that poverty oi him “who was rich, yet for our sakes became poor” (2 Cor. 8:9). This is lone of the few references Jesus made as to his own condition. The second * man seems to be of more importance inferentially, at least, for Jesus com mands him to “follow.” Notice Jesus does not say admire me, nor ever worship me. but “follow me.” This man seems to have a very high sense of duty, his obligation to his parents and to the amenities of society. This man’s mistake was in placing any thing, no matter how important, in the place of the kingdom. Jesus does ’ ' not mean for us to. neglect such a piain duty, but this mat/ is pleading for a delay, and had it notj been ttiis excuse it would have been soiue other ope. His trouble is that of thousands. They realize the value of this pearl of great price, but ere they seek to possess it they would chase some vain ..bauble like pleasures, riches or learnjjing, and then come and follow him. » Men will leave aged parepts to seek a I fortune who will not go and “publish I abroad the kingdom of God.”
CAMP FIRE WPS 5 LINCOLN AND DENNIS HANKS Incident of War Days at Washington Is Told by Cousin of Martyred War President. As a long-time acquaintance of Dennis Hanks 1 wish to recall an incident that may be of interest. Hanks was a nephew of Nancy Hanks, the mother of Lincoln. He, had acquired a crude education before his cousin Abe had a chance to learn, writes W. A. Judson in the Indianapolis News. “Abe was determined to try for something,” Hanks said to the writer one day in Paris, 111. “I reckoned it would not amount to much but I says ‘go ahead’; and before long he went ahead and knowed more than me.” Dennis Hanks moved from Kentucky with Lincoln, and the other members of the family, to Indiana, and thence to Illinois. They settled first in Coles County, 111., afterward in Macon county, where Miss Nancy Hanks, (a daughter of Dennis Hanks) and a woman of fine degree, was born. She married, in Decatur, 111-. P. L. Shoaff, who published and edited the first newspaper in that town. . Mr. Shoaff afterward moved to Paris, and founded the Gazette, a newspaper of which his sons are now proprietors and publishers. While doing local editorial work on the-G: : .z« tte tire writei und “old Hanks,” as we called him, had frequent chats and in one of these chats Dennis told why he went to Washington, D. C., when President Abraham Lincoln occupied the White House. Mind you, Dennis was just as plain and unassuming as his cousin Abe, and just as kind-hearted. A young soldier from Coles county, who, afte-r a series of forced marches had been placed on picket duty in the presence of the enemy, fell asleep. Dennis Hanks was sent on to Washington to intercede for the young soldier, who had been court-marshaled and sentenced to be shot. Dennis Hanks in relating his experience at the White House, said: I went up there to sec Abe and a porter at the door said: ‘What do you want?’ I says. T want to see Abe Lincoln.’ ‘Have you a card?’.he says to me. I says, ‘No, man, 1 ain’t got no card. I .want to see Abe Lincoln on particular business and 1 want to see him mighty soon.’ That porter says, Well, you will have to wait. Just about then Abe, whom I seen through the open door in a back room writin’ at a desk, looked up and seen me and says, ‘Why, hello,' Dennis, how are you? Come right In.’ Then you ought to seen that porter git away from that door. I don’t believe he meant no harm, but he did not know that me and Abe was cousips and old friends.” Dennis Hanks received a pardon for the Coles coupty young soldier (though’ Abe Lincoln had the soldier boy come to Washington for a reprimand) and Dennis was royally entertained and presented with Abe Lincoln’s watch, which he proudly showed when he told this true story. Put Him Off All Right. A soldier got a furlough at Nashville, and, laboring under a “load” of commissary, took the train lor the north. He handed the brakeman a dollar, and told him to be sure and put him off at Elizabethtown. “I may ’bject, but yo’ pu’mme off any’ow, an’ ’fi fight, yo’ hi’ me an’ drag me off, shee?” During the night when they arrived there the brakeman, after a teirific fight, put the soldier off at Elizabethtown. As it grew light and the train neared Louisville the brakeman shook the drowsy passengers and shouted: “All out! ” “What does this mean?” said an angry soldier, now sober, when he got off and found himself at Louisville. “Didn’t I give you a dollar and tell you to put me off at Elizabethtown?” The trainman’s jaw dropped, and he stared at him, blankly. “Are you the man? Then, who the dickens was the feller I did put off there?” Rousseau and Clergyman. Rev. Frederick A. Ross -had just been examined on a charge of treason, and convicted upon his own showing. Under charge of a guard he was about to leave Gen. Rousseau’s tent. Putting on a particularly sanctimonious expression, he took up his hat, turned to the general, and said: “Well, general, we must each do as we think best, and I hope we will both meet in heaven.” “Your getting to heaven, sir. will depend altogether upon your future conduct,” the general replied. “Before we can reasonably hope to meet there you and I must become better men.” The effect of this brief rejoinder was irresistible. Has Another Guess. A stay-at-home, a little man, with a little voice, weak and effeminate, noticed a soldier, who had been blinded by the explosion at City Point, asking alms. “There is a dirile for you, my brave soldier,” he said, as he tossed the coin into the cap of the fellow. “Thank’e, inarm,” was the response. “I’m not a woman,” was the indignant reply. “Thank’e, miss,” was the prompt retort. Hard to jdit. During the reconstruction period, when the wheels of industry were beginning to move again in the south, an officer was accosted by a loafer. “Jones;” said he, “where is all that prosperity that was promised to us?** “Why,” replied Colonel Jones, “prosperity Is beginning to be felt every* where.” “It has not struck me yet.” "Os course not,” said Colonel Jones. "It is pretty hard to hit nothing.”
IF Chrisf Mere Here
S Christmas a season of plenty ? Face to face with this timely question I have been thinking of the households in Qur cities. In many of them. I know, the tables will groan under an array of substantiate aqd dainties, tasteful enough to make the mouth of an i epicure water. • There will be that j lovely loan from I the pretty customs j of the German fa- ! therland — the
MM
Christmas tree—laden with its nu- : merous gifts for family and friends: ; the little ones will rejoice in toys and candies; those a bit older, in a wealth of books and games, while fathers and mothers will have exhausted their ingenuity in discovering each others desires and those of their children in order that all may be gratified on this anniversary of Christ’s coming. In well-ordered households those who serve the family will be welcomed ardund the tree and merriment and song will add to the gayety. If he in whose name it will all be done were right here in the midst ot them, what more.could he ask? And I dreamed a dream—that he I had come once more upon earth, hadq come -right down among us and was | looking with eyes of deep questioning i at what was being done in honor of j his former coming. And as. he walked around hidden I from a’l eyes but mine own. his glance I seemed to pierce beneath the seem- j ing and reach the heart of the festival, j He passed by the well-warmed and | lighted homes, where all was hap- j piness and content; he went into the I places where those of whom he said “Os such is the kingdom of God” were playing in the path of death, and his glance tVas stern as he saw one of “these little ones” sweep into eterity beneath the iron wheels which crushed its tiny form almost out of all semblance of the beauty and sweetness which belonged to it. His look said: “What gift has been given to this child in honor of my birthday? Has it had not. even that right of every ereatu.re, a safe place to expand its nature in the play which it must have in order so grow?” And he went among the homes of I hose who serve the people in the marts of trade; great and small. Surely there we, would find the Chirstmas good cheer of which I had been thinking. But in too many households we found only worry and anxious care for the morrow and for the health of those who were tired almost to death after their long hours of labor for -the thankless, rushing crowd of searchers after “Christinas gifts;” they were not thinking of Christmas festivities, bftt only “Lord, give rest and bre(|d to eat —rest, Lord, rest” . , . We left the, middle-class homes and wandered bn our quest into that great neighborhood of the weavers, men and women by the thousands, who in the best of times can never be sure that the wolf is far from their doors, and wlm, during these late years of costly living, have not often seen the best of times. There were attempts in many humble homes to celebrate the coming oi .the Prince of Peace, but, oh, how pitiful was their setting forth of the good things we all think belong of necessity to this blessed season! “What are you doing to these my little ones?” said the sad eyes with the deep questioning look. “Is this the best you can give them in honor of me? Why, these are no longer children; they are dwarfed men and women, with the spirit of play gone from them and the weight of years upon them in their very childhood." And he went farther among the weavers, and came to the homes of • those who had abandoned all hope of j better times; the homes where the I season of ChrisUg- birth could not be celebrated for even their utmost efforts could not still the howl of the wolf right upon them, not at. but within the door. Theirs was the cry of the poor women of the roads in the German fatherland in a century long gone by, to the appeal of the priest who consecrated his life to such as they. “Give us only bread and water, and we will follow thee.” And these poor households said, “Give us to know where tomorrow’s bread is to come from, and we will be happy and make a festival for thee; all we ask it to be free from the wolf; we are willing to work, but work is not plentiful enough, and some of us must always go hungry.” And the face of the Christ grew sadder. And we passed into the home of one of those whose grief must be greater than that of her from whom death has taken the husband and the father of her little ones; of one
TRUST HIS LOVE
They are few who have not sometimes, said like Jaob, “All these things are against me.” We cannot wonder that he thought so; but he was mistaken. They Were working for his good, and the time came when he knew it. We cannot see the bright light that is in the\s'torms that afflict us, and our faith is, so small that our hearts are troubled. But when our spirit is overwhelmed within us God
“More Nat’ral.” , In Denver there is said to be a parvenu nabob who ordered for himself, through a friend in New York, a half-dozen pieces of the finest statuary in the metropolis. When they arrived, they all proved to be bronze. The nabob was greatly disgusted. The statuary of his neighbor, whom he was imitating or trying to excel, was of marble. Os course, that was the proper thing. lie retired that night in a mood of great displeasure. Next morning, before the sun was up, he

from whom the man nas gone away, leaving the womaii to fight singlehanded against the wolf. The effort there to keep up heart and to hold together the children in the- home, with the handicap of the lower wage which is meted out to the working woman, seemed even more desperate. The little ones looked hungry; the Christmas tree had shrunk to a tiny sprig of green; there was little light, and it was, oh. so cold, and the tiny babe on the mother’s arm was the only soul that smiled. And this at the time of plenty, when all should rejoice! is the mother at work .at a time like this? Yes. in spite of all the world has to tell us of “sacred motherhood." the woman with the babe on her arm is not exempt from this harsh demand, and at work must be, even on this day of days, or risk the dole which is all that stands between her children and the wolf. And deep in the saddened eyes of the Christ I read the condemnation and the question: He that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?” Is the rush of the gift-buying a sign either that there is plenty in the land or that we really love to celebrate the birthday of the so, listen to the groans of the overburdened father of the family when approached with the request for Qhristmas moneys; hear what weary women say to each other in passing concerning the unwelcome necessity of “exchanging gifts” with so many people “who look for something from you,” What of the original .spirit of Christmas is there left in this “exchange,” this giving in the expectation of a return in kind? Thousands upon thousands of gifts are “exchanged” by people who bought them with the money which was really’ needed for the daily uses of their own households, bought them grudgingly in servitude to custom and without a particle of real Christmas spirit accompanying the selection or the giving. But this is not the worst of it; the children, even, .have come to know in many families that the gifts to those outside the family circle are given not because of a loving desire to give, but in the spirit represented by “that wicked dollar.” which Emerson said I was given in order to save himself i the unpleasantness of refusing or the I trouble of investigating some demand made upon him. Which has ttye better claim upon the time and the purse of the man of small means—those dear to him who actually need comforts. or the richer friend who in no sense needs the thing sent and who in turn will feel obliged to make a gift to keep his record, clear? Shame upon the weakness which forces the “exchange” of what should be an outpouring of good feeling or else has absolutely no raison d’etre. But is there any righteousness in the feeling of smug comfort in the homes of the well-to-do at the Christmas season? Is the full table and the joy of one’s own household a failoffering in honor of him whose coming we are supposed to be celebrating? While we are pretending to be a Christian community what are we doing to the weak and the helpless? Can there be any greater wrong to the children of any community than
knows our path. The deepest lessens, and the most salutary, of our lives come through our adversities. An thlete cannot be trained without difficult exercises, the mind is. developed by hard studies, the heart is enlarged and humbled and purified by affliction. Our transient troubles are working for us “more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory.” Our faith is small because the temporal
went out on his lawn, bucket and paint brush in hand, and painted white each piece of the new bronze statuary. He was at work on “Venus at Her Bath,” when his friend, who had purchased the artistic images for him, happened along and inquired in dismay what he was doing. Said the man of wealth: “Do you suppose I want: any Ute squaws in my yard? Not : by a sight!” The friend amusedly watched the artist until he had completed the job of giving the shapely Venus a flesh coloring. Then
permit • years durimr whirl’ they should be laying the foundations of knowledge most easily, to find them so crowded' by thousands out of the schools or sitting on the window ledges or (with doubly worked teachers trying to instruct two sets of youngsters) on “half time"? And yet we go calmly on year after year permitting money to be misused, while the little children pay the. bills In wasted years: ami then, when Christmas comes, the children’s festival par excellence, we lift up our eyes to heaven with the prayer of the Pharisee and rejoice’over the Christmas season and its joy for the eiiEdren! Can there be any neglect of the commonwealth’s interests greater and with results more lasting, than our failure to consider every child an asset to be* treasured and and appreciated, to be educated Vo its utmost possibilities? ' M’e are all prone, men and women alike, to look mostly at immediate effects. If some one we know goes out to nurse a poqrer neighbor stricken down with typhoid or any of the other preventable diseases, we exclaim over the lovely charity of the action and praise the-kindness of heart which prompted it. “That,” says the average person, “is’ true charity and neighborly love." But if that kindly woman were to give half the time and effort to help along a crusade for pure water or for the prevention of consumption or for the cleaning up of a pestilent neighborhood. she would.’probably be called by those immediately around her. if not a muckraker, at least an uncomfortably active reformer. Yet the prevention of the illness would mean more to the poorer neighbor than all the kindly nursing during its continuance. All we may do in the way of . juvenile courts for the young offenders is not to be compared with giving them just their bare right to playgrounds and good teaching.’with plenty of refom for all and well paid teachers to work for and with them. When we know that the coming of Christmas, the children’s festival, is going to make all the young boxmakers in our city slavo extra long hours, in order to fill ti|e rush or- ! ders of the season, shall we .not be shaken out of our smug rejoicing over this as a time of plenty for all? . Not enough schools for the city’s children: not enough food for them, even when they do get into the i. schools; not enough wages for their I parents, to enable the mothers to ; remain in the homes •to look after ) them; not enough money spent by i the municipality to give them places I to play in safety; not enough care for I their lives to clean up the neighbor- | hoods in which they fairly swarm; not I enough Christmas joy to go round to all ! the city’s children—such is our record i as we prepare to celebrate with merri- | ment and feasting the advent of the | Christ. Child. Is it a record of which iwe dare be proud? May we offer it as i a meet festival in honor of the coming j into our world of him who said: > Whosoever shall cause one of these I little ones that believes on me to ; stumble, it were better for him if a I great millstone were hanged about his i neck and he were cast into the sea.” I Who lives for humanity must be ■ content to lose himself. —Frothingi ham.
has too strong a hold on us. If our vision were always fixed on the things not seen and eternal we would rejoice in our tribulation. One of the greatest goods of life is the severity of its spiritual discipline. To those who trust him God gives the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places. We cannot comprehend his perfect plan for our lives, but it is our blessed privilege to trust his unerring wisdom and his infinite love.
stepping back, he viewed the effect of his work critically a moment, went into the house, and, returning with a pot of colored paint, commenced to decorate the limbs of Venus with red garters. The effect very much pleased the manipulator of the brush, because he said it made it appear “more nat’ral-like.” Every woman whose husband is a failure is sure he would have been ahowling success had he followed her advice. , v . .
