By Elmvalo ? Pile --w- vs --noun wwuvsuivlvrtfi .(');e of` the best .kn`own`_para.,bles ot- Jusus is that or Dives and Lazarus. The-rich man who fared sum-otuously every demand` the diseased beggar who lay at his gate. There was 9.` sharp con- trast in their earthly states.` The one starved in pain and-regs. The other ted full in the lap of luxury. There was a. still sharper contrast in their post-morn ' tal-`fates. The one was carried by. the angels into Abraham's bosom. The other. went to hades. And there is just as sharp a, contrast between what Jesus intended this parable to teach and what most people interpret it as teaching. , `g ' II-_-- ...-_ ---_I_l.. 4.1.1.. _._'_._e_1, -,, _ `rm-: TESTrOF 11-a OOMMONPLAOII I\-A n0`L`nn Imps;-L I-........... ___.._I, _ v... .... ..g - | : Many men explain this parable as an attack .on wealth and a glorification of poverty,.and even the state, of beg- gary. There is no .uch thought in the parable as Jesus enunciated it. He makes no attack on the rich man's` wealth; and says nothing against the way he acquired it or spent it. He makes no glorification of Lazarus pov- erty or his. condition of beggary. Jesus simply takes two facts which He saw every day, and usesthem to teach an altogether different lesson. It is"this. By the way in which he dealt with the oommonplaces of_ life he formed his - character here, and fixed his destiny` for eternity. He did not see it when `here. He did see it when he looked `back through the clear light or the other world. He had fixed his fate by Jais manner of dealing with an every4 day incident.

By the side of3 Lazarus no poster was erected with flaming letters, no trum- pet was sounded, no voice of-warning was uttered crying. As you deal with this beggar, so shall you be dealt with in eternity." Not at all! The rich man was left to the promptings of -his own conscience, and the teachings of the lawand the prophets. He gave no heed to these. He did to Lazarus Just `what he had done to manylya one be- fore. That case was a type of all the rest. Only it was the last opportunity. Without heralding, without trumpet-` ing, without any noise or special warn- ing. the rich man was given his last chance to do good toa poor, wretched, fellow-creature. As he had done before so he did again. He did not take the chance. He passed heedlesslym by, and letgt Lazarus to` the compassion of his` dogs.
