SUNDAY SCHOOL. I ( Lesson IL—Third Quarter, For < July 12, 1914. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. ; Text of the Lesson, Mark x, 32-45. J Memory Verses, 43-45—Golden Text, < Mark x, 45—Commentary Prepared J by Rev. D. M. Stearns. ’ The first part of this lesson concern- , Ing His death and resurrection is re- J corded in Matthew. Mark and Luke, but < the second part, concerning the request J , of James and John and their mother. ’ in Matthew and Mark only. The words < “in the way” of verses 17. 32, 52: xi. 8; ! Acts ix, 2, 17. 27. and elsewhere, while ‘ they may generally mean nothing more , than on the road, are suggestive of Ps. « i, G; cxix, 1; John xiv, 6. and make one J think of the way of peace, the way of < the Lord (Luke 1, 79; ill, 4). and of what ] it really means, to follow Him in the < way. ] This is the third time that He spoke < plainly of His sufferings and death and ' resurrection; but. although His words i seem so plain to us. they understood none of these things (Luke xvill. 34). because they knew not the Scriptures concerning His death and resurrection < (John xx, 9), having their own thoughts ' about the kingdom, just as many today . know nothing of the second coining of ; Christ, the distinction between the , church of the present age and the king- ’ dom of the next age and the ages* to J come, because they will not take heed ' to what is written in the prophets con- ] cerning the Son of Man and the king < dom to be set up at His coming' in J ■ glory to judge the nations and to reign < in righteousness (Isa. xxxii. 1. 17; J xxxiv, 8; xxxv. 4, 10). but persist in ( thinking that the kingdom is within us J and that all that the great work of re- < demption is for is to deliver people ’ from hell and get them to heaven. < This is the age of a kingdom post- ' poned because of a rejected Christ and < of gathering out from all nations a ' people to reign with Him. but who , must be content now to suffer with ; ; Him, live separate from this present ! evil age. not conformed to it. but so 1 manifesting in it the meekness, lowli- , ness and love of Christ that we shall show something of His life in these mortal bodies and win people to Him. ' The Holy Spirit has been given espe- ; i cially in this age to testify of a cruel- ’ tied, risen and ascended Christ, who is , waiting at the Father's right hand un- ; til the number of His elect, waiting. < suffering ones, shall have been com- J pleted, when He will take us to Him- < ■ self, reward us for service, appoint our ' places in His kingdom and bring us ■ back with Him to reign (Acts xvi. 1318; Thess, iv. 16-18; Col. ill. 4; Rev. v. 9. 10). This is no time for a believer to be seeking great things for himself or his church or his denomination or society or in any way to make himself a name, but with all lowliness and meekness and long suffering and patience walk worthy of Him who has called us unto His kingdom and glory (Eph, iv, 1.2; Col. i. 10. 11; I Thess. ii. 12). who came not to be ministered unto, but to minister and to give His life a ransom for many (verse 45). Even Jeremiah in his day said to his scribe Baruch, "Seekest thou great things for thyself, seek them not” (Jer. xiv, 5). As it is a case of self or the Lord and cannot be both, we must persist in attaining to the fullness of the experience of “Not I, but Christ who liveth in me;” “Not I. but the grace of God;” “In newness of life, dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord;” “Delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh;” “Risen with Christ and setting our affection on things above” (Gal. ii, 20; Cor. xv, 10; Rom. vi, 4, 11; II Cor. iv, 10, 11; Col. Hi, 1-4). Neither James nor John nor their mother seemed to understand when they came seeking preferment in the kingdom, and it did seem so out of place when He had just been speaking of His own sufferings and death. Even on the last night, at the passover. as he spoke of one of them betraying Him. they were striving as to which of them should be the greatest, giving Him occasion to say, “I am among you as he that serveth” (Luke xxii. 21-27). No teacher of man was ever so lonely, misunderstood or unappreciated. There is such a depth of meaning in His words. “No man knoweth the Son but the Father” (Matt xi. 27); “I live by the Father” (John vl, 57). He spoke of the cup given Him to drink and the baptism of suffering which awaited Him and asked if they could share it. and they thought that their devotion to , Him was such that they could share anything with Him. even to dying with Him, as Peter said (John xiii, 37). They did not understand. How could they when they were so dull as not to receive His plain words about His own dying? And when he was arrested that last night and was about to be bound and led away as a prisoner Peter would have delivered Him by his sword if he could. Oh, how little we understand of what it means to follow Him. to manifest His life, to bear the burden of the meek and lowly One, who. when He was reviled, reviled not again; when He suffered He threatened not. leaving us an example that we should follow His steps (I Pet. ii, 21-23). When people sing. “Surely the captain may depend on me,” “Fade, each earthly joy,” “Thou. O Christ, art all 1 want,” and other similar words they do not often consider what they are saying, nor to whom they are saying these words, nor how it would be if the test came. _ . .
