THE COMING OF "THE SON OF MAN." 12: 47, 48. I. A CERTAIN RICH MAN, 12: 16-21. V. 16. This story is not so much a parable as an illustration, but an !- lustration of what? There are two morals which might be drawn from it, and it is not clear which is prim- arily intended. First, the story illu-- trate.s the extreme uncertainty of hu- man life; mar. who "knows net wha: a I'ny may bring forth" is a'way making plans for the future; irnieea soi- .- men so "live in the future" - we -.a. that they never enjoy today. Let u.s mako the most and make th? best of lift; while we have it, for we do r.i.t kn:>w how long it will be ours But while *his might be the chief meaning of the story it is not prob- ably so. Rather, ic seems we ar: given a picture of an entirely seW-sl: an'i unspiritually minded man. He has put together enough wealth to last I'.'* own life-time, and that is all he cr.res about. For the future ho intends to "have a good time." His iden of a good time is a life 'f eatinir. drinking and merry-making. His ide-tl of . ."e. therefore, is that of one !on<r, a-.. , unadverturous and selfish holi- day. He had found no happiness in his \vo~k as a piece of human servio*: his v ork wns a bore, and his Jife be- g*:-- where his work ended. It has often been noted, in modern time*. that men who make money very q'.iu-k'y and then retire to enjoy them- b*i.f.-i, rarely live to a full age. \ lift 1 ti.nt 'ias no real, unselfish inu?re". t* fee I v is apt to flicker oat. Let n mar., then, find his true life and hap- pine.-s ;n faithfully and hopefully per- f: ,-rng each day's task as it comes. . 1!>.

WATCHFULNESS, 12: 4l~ii"> The subject of this parable :i- thai which precedes it is "watchfut- ne ^" aa a duty. Peter here ask wt.e:l or the duty devolves upon every - i-i-iy or only upon the disciples. The ar.-A>r is that it devolves ir. a spevi.ii way upon the di.*ciples, for they a'i' '<.<" ards of th mysterii-s of Goil." : t is then task to "t'eod my ." It seems thai the Chutvh >C years understood this parab'o to apply to ministers and church otti- evj'..-. As the expectation of the im- m<?di: lk e second coming of Christ be- gar. l'i fade away, and he see:.ied ro Mela' " (v. 45). there was a tendency for titt- church leaders bt>th to K r(iv ' .ind self-indulgont, au<i !-> t > fc l.i '.

The C'hu.-ch plod; on ita weary vay with doubts and deficits and inertia. "Dare great thngs for God," said William Carey, "and ex- pect great things from God." The Son of man is always coming to as. if we are watchful. If this does not exhaust the moaning of the passai^e, ic is at least a truth we can clearly grasp.
