JUNIOR TOPlC—Elijah Taken Up Into Heaven. . *., INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Jehovah’s Champion Exalted. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Divine Approval of Faithful Service. I. God Reveals to Elijah His Approaching Rapture (v 1). It was made known to Elijah that | he was to go to heaven by a whirlwind. There Is a striking correspondence between his life and his homej going. Much of his life was charac- | terized with the rush of the storm, so i God chose to take him home to himself in the whirlwind. As a reward I for bis faithfulness, God lifted the prophet over death into heaven. Elijah did not choose the time of his home-going, but was ready. 11. Elijah’s Closing Ministry (vv. 2-8). Knowing that the time of his homegoing was near, he did not change bls manner or method of life, but thoughtfully and calmly pursued his customary duties. We should so consciously be in the will of God that when the time of our departure is at hand we neral not with feverish haste or distraction get things in readiness. Elijah's last days chi earth Were busy ones. 1. Visits the schools of the prophets (vv. 2-8). At the Lord's direction he went tn give Ills' farewell counsels to the young students wh/mi he had been training and upon whom the future of the nation politically ami religiously so largely depended. Up made regular rounds in visitation and In l struction. Schools were located nt Gilgal. Bethel and Jericho. His educational work shows lihu to have been not merely an iconoclast, but * statesman of a high order. 2. Trains Elisha to be his successor (vv. 2-S). There was a real friendship between Elijah and EHrtm, though the one was old and the other young. Elisha came Into the life of j Elijah in the field when Elijah called j him from the plow (I Kings 19:19-21). EHsfla clung to his master to the very hist in spite of three urgent requests for him to remain behind. These tests were somewhat like those of the Master with Peter (John 21 :15-17). The great object was to got him ready to take up the work which Elijah-was to lay down. The order of progress of the journey indicates, says Scofield, “the exjierlence of every child 1 of God who enters into a vital experience of God's best. That walk began i at Gilgal. The typical significance of j Gilgal cannot be mistaken by any reader of Joshua. Gilgal was the place where a redeemed people rolled away the nproai’b of Egypt (Josh. 5:1-11). "Tbe next stage was Bothel —house of God —the place of vision, of spiritual insight, for Bethel was the place where Jehovah gave Jacob tl.e great ladder vision (Gen. 28:1-19). He must go on from Bethel to Jordan. Jordan stands for the Xew Testament truth, crucified with Christ. There, on the resurrection side of Jordan, the gift of power awaited the prophet.” 111. Elijah’s Rapture (vv. 9-11). 1. Elisha’s request of Elijah (v. 9). j The walk of Elisha with Elijah from Gilgal to Jordan has jtrepared him for the final question of Elijah before his rapture. Elijah now knew that it 1 was safe to allow Elisha to choose for himself. Elisha nHithT a noble request —did not ask for riches.-honor op position. Ue supremely desired- the qualifications which would enable.Jdm to worthily succeed Elijah. Curiously enough, however. Elisha performed ■ twice ns many miracles as Elijah. 2. The condition of receiving was steadfastness and perseverance (v. 10). He must have faith in the invisible life in order to have power for public ministry. , 2. Elijah’s rapture (v. 11). It seems that lie wont to heaven in a chariot of tire enveloped by the’whirl- । wind. Elijah underwent that change which all believers shall experience at , the appearing of Cnrist (I Cor. 15:51, 52 >- IV. The Spirit of Elijah Upon Elisha (vv. 12-15). 1. Elishn's cry (v. 12). He cried ■ after Elijah. “The clmriot of Israel and the horsemen thereof!” This ' sliows the value of a godly man to ' his country. It implies that Elijah ■ was the true national defense. God- • liness and character are more Important than armies and navies. 2. Elishfl uses the power (vv. 13, 14).. He had faith to put, the power t<> test. 3. The spirit of Elijah on Elisha (v. 15). This was confirmed by the sons of the prophets. Help Cometh. Every true life of faith Ims .scenes in it when help comes—us jf did to Elijah at the brook Clierifh—from an j unexpected quarter. The raven lights tat our feet with food, and the dry - brook begins to sing again with wafer, do not believe that tliere is such a ^^iiig in the universe as a neglected ^qu^er ever breathed by docile, sub- * Emptied of self.

MINERS APPEAL TO PRESIDENT Cabinet and Congress Also Asked to Probe Conditions in Coal Fields. WORKERS ARE IN ACTUAL WANT Statement Issued by Union Leaders in Pennsylvania Says Situation Is the Same Throughout the Country —Mine Owners Fail to Help. Wilkes-Barre, Pa., Jan. 27.—“1s the government helpless to evolve any plan for meeting the crucial emergency of the miners?” ask officials of District No. 2, United Mine Workers of America, in an appeal addressed to President Harding. Vice President Coolidge, the speaker of the house, members of congress and the federal trade commission. The appeal, which is signed by President John Brophy, Vice Pres- , ident James Mark and Secretary Treasurer Richard Gilbert, of District , No. 2, demands “a formal effective governmental investigation” of labor ■ conditions in the coal fields of the country. The communication exposes the situation of miners in the bituminous j fields, but It is considered of importance by anthracite miners because District President Brophy was one of ■ the principal speakers at last week’s tri-district convention at Shamokin. “The undersigned, representing 43.Dki coal miners In central Pennsylvania,” says the appeal, “have been directed by the executive board of District Nn; 2 of the United Mine . Workers of America to bring to the J Ftteution of the national government the facts of a serious situation and to a^k of the government certain questinns. “The flirts wc know them in our own wide district, comprising a large section of Peimsyivania. are in brief taut a year’s intermittent employment has l?ft huge numbers of the miners n Ith such depleted re<our< - es that In th<msftnds of caves actunl want couf onfs the miners' families, and in t lousands of other case* the stand aids of living are going «h>wn. The n iners of this district have averaged only from one to three days’ work a week for nearly a year. Their resources In the midst of the winter are vanishing. The present condttlnn of thousands of rlM'ir families should refute conclusively the rerkless assertion of high wages idled up by miners. "In the past few weeks our locals and district organizations have been driven to attempt that which tae coal Industry should long ago have been forced to do under government pressure. We are appropriating and paying out what small sums we can muster as a sort of unemployment relief. “Through no fault of their own. miners in this distn« - t who. during the war. 'trained every nni' - le at the goveriaenfs call to produce, now find themselves with nothing to live on through the winter. Thousands of wonien and children lack the trunnion ueie"ities. let alone any approach to an American standard of living. "And what is true of our 43.1*81 miners is true of half a million more miners in union and nonunion fields alike. “>he present managements of the coal industries have shown themselves helpless even to plan relief. Nursing the unconscionable war profits and watching for only rising prices with vague expectations of a harvest reapeil from a coal scarcity, they answer all our efforts for betterment with calls for reduced wages. Tliey do not even pretend to prove that cutHug wages would revive the chances of work. They admit that in the steel industry the wages of helpless, unorganized men have been ruthlessly slashed 40. 50 and even GO per cent for the past year, and still the coal demand is only a fraction of normal.” (Signed) WILKES-BARRE MI NE RS.
