page six stouffville ontario thursday october 27 1938 sunday school lesson october 30 personal rights and where they end golden text what then shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace god forbid rom 615 the lesson as a whole by h a ironside litt d pastor moody chrch chicago approach to the lesson to use gods good gifts with out abusing them to exercise our divinelygiven privileges without infringing upon the rights of others and to avoid all things that are injurious to our selves or set an evil example to those who are weaker is to live nobly and worthy of our calling as members of christ and even though one does not yet have the full assurance of his own acceptance with god yet life here on earth is richer and sweeter if temperate habits pre vail and considerations of decen cy and unselfishness are charac teristic we should remember that evil once done is evil that will never be undone one may be given for sins against god against society and against ones self bt the sins them selves once committed can never become as though they had not been there are evil effects which go on forever we may know all the beginnings of sinful behaviour but we can never know the final effects of evil actions or of a bad example therefore the importance of selfcontrol and of sober health ful living that we may glorify god in our bodies and our spir its which are his both solomon and paul show us that life at its best in only enjoyed as we walk toll ten by king solomon eccles 11 after he had tried ail that earth had to offer in the pursuit of happiness and found that only in pleasing god is true joy be had he reigned from about 101c bc to 976 paul wrote the letter to the romans about ad 60 some twentysix years after his own remarkable conversion j verse by verse i eccles 21 i said in mine heart this is one of the key ex pressions in the book of ecclesias- tes it is the story of the effort of a man to find the supreme good apart from divine revelation he looks in to his own heart follows its dictates and after trying all that earth has to offer finds all is vanity or empti ness worldly folly never satisfied anyone who sight

to find solace in tho pleasures of the wine cup though determined not to act the part ot a fool and allow himself to become a drunkard he would drink in moderation hoping in this to find what was good for the sons of men his book tells how vain wa the effort to find lasting enjoyment in selfindulgence of any kind verse 10 whatsoever mine eyes desired he had almost un limited wealth and he determined not to deny himself anything that his eyes desired or his heard craved he gave himself for a time at least wholly to the pursuit of selfgrati fication hoping in this to find per fect happiness verse 11 no profit under the sun but as he looked back upon wasted years and blighted hopes he realized that the selfish life is the empty life all was emptiness and a pursuit of the wind nothing under the sun can satisfy a man made for eternity rom c17 ye were the ser vants of sin what a change of at mosphere as we leave the gloom of ecclesiastes for the radiant light of the epistle to the romans here we have life at its very highest found in obedience to god after having experienced his saving grace verse is free from sin sin is viewed as a master from whose dominion the believer in christ is delivered when he devotes himself to the lord as a servant of righteous ness verse 19 yield your members we do not find the word surrender in our english version of the new testament but the word yield means exactly the same we who in our unconverted days were the vol untary bondslaves of sin are now to dedicate ourselves voluntarily unto righteousness that we may live holy lives to the glory of the one who has saved us verse 20 ye were the servants of sin it is to be hoped this is in the past for us all but if not we may settle it now that wo will never more be the slaves o iniquity as such we lived in unrighteousness from which the surrendered soul is now delivered verso 21 things whereof ye are now ashamed sin leaves a sting behind the very remembrance of past misdeeds causes the renewed man to be ashamed how foolish to persist in what only brings eternal regret and endless death at last verse 22 made free from sin just as israel of old were freed from pharaohs domination when they crossed tho red sea the type of death with christ so we are freed from the power of sin when we reckon ourselves as having died with christ v 11 now we bear fruit unto holiness and look forward to everlasting life with christ and all the redeemed verse 23 the wages the gift nte tho contrast sin is a sure paymaster his wages aro death physical spiritual and eternal gods free gift is eternal life to all who trust his son our lord jesus christ chapter 1421 neither to eat flesh nor to drink wine if my personal habits would bo a stumb ling block to my weaker brother christian charity will cause me to change them and to refrain from aught that would tend to mislead or embolden another in wrongdoing the heart of the lesson there is something hero far more than the appeal to refrain from intoxicating drink and from im- moral habits of any kind tho call is to personal faith in the lord jesus and a life surrendered to him that he may by tho holy spirit enable us so to live as to glorify god and to be a blessing t those with whom we come in contact rather than a curse the yielded believer will always put self last not first a clean life in a clean body honors the lord who died to redeem tho whole man not alone from hell but to the blessed ness of fellowship with god we regret to have to report the death of mrs kennedy mother of mrs lunau so well known to
