discern the face of ho sky hut can jo not discern the signs of the times matt 163 the lesson as a whole approach to the lesson last week we saw that four of the parables given in mat thew chapter 13 were spoken by the sea in the presence of the multitude and four of them in the house to the disciples alone that is significant of a change in our lords activity from this time on he sought more and more to have the dis ciples by themselves in order to instruct them in view of the day when he would leave them we are not suggesting that his public ministry was over but this new feature becomes in creasingly prominent i suggest that you read matthews gospel from 1353 and note how often the statement is made that je sus departed pay special re gard to occasions when the de parture was for the purpose of getting away from the crowds into some kind of retirement with the apostolic band it is not without reason then that we can call the remaining section of our present division the training of the disciples 1353 to 1620 you will note that this activity continues when we leave the main division which we en titled presenting the king in his procedure and enter the third main division presenting the king in his passion but more of that next week one night only rev e c wood timmins ont will speak and show pictures of baptist missions in various parts of canada in the stouffville

full 7 weeks see us today stiver bros stouffviue ontario there is good reason for this new activity the rising tide of opposition to the lord jesus christ in official circles must have been a distressing and even frustrating experience for the disciples who had expected some thing very different for all their belief in and loyalty to jesus they were puzzled and stood in need of that special care and constant encourage ment to faith which jesus now gave them important as the public ministry of the lord jesus was one is tempted to believe that he regarded the training of the twelve as his supreme task short of the giv ing of himself in the atoning work of the cross yerse by yerse matt 161 the pharisees the sadducees desired a sign from heaven the piiarisees and the sadducees had no love for each other but they united in a common pur pose to embarrass jesus with a request which they were sure he could not grant verse 2 evening fair weather for the isky is red interest in the weather is no new thing among men but weather forecasters had less scientific data to go on in those days verse 3 morning foul weather red and lowr- ing ye can discern the face of the sky but not the signs of the times the lang uage is more cryptic than our standard english translations suggest our lord rebuked his questioners for their aptness in judgment regarding ephemeral matters such as the weather while revealing woeful ignor ance and blindness with respect to the great movements of the kingdom of god verse 4 a wicked and adul terous generation no sign but the sign of the prophet jonas their blindness was the fruit of their rebellious and unfaithful hearts and because they could not see the signs all around them they required something sensational some thing to compel belief for an explanation of the sign of jo nah see 123941 verse 5 they had for gotten to take bread no doubt the excitement of the contro versy made the disciples for getful of routine matters verse 6 take heed and i beware of the leaven of the pharisees sadducees the double command called first for i such a close inspection of the i leaven mentioned that they would always recognize it and second for an utter repudiation of it verse 7 because we have taken no breadthe men tion of leaven reminded the dis ciples of what they had forgot ten but it is difficult to see how the pharisees and sadducees could enter the picture in this connection did the disciples think that jesus meant they should not buy bread from phar isees and sadducees verse 8 o ye of little faith why reason ye their failure to bring bread along should have been no matter of concern to them was not his presence the guarantee bt full provision verses 9 10 remember the five loaves and the five thousand and how many bas kets the seven loaves of the four thousand the two occasions referred to differed with respect to the number fed the kinds of baskets used as in dicted by different greek words and such incidentals but they showed the ability of the same lord to meet mens needs in ample fashion verse 11 i spake not concerning bread the figurative language of jesus had discovered both the dis ciples unbelief and their lack of understanding they had much to learn verse 12 then understood they the doctrine of the phari sees and of the sadducees his rebuke opened their under standing and they saw that just as leaven permeates the meal in the making of bread so the doctrine of the pharisees and the sadducees had a leavening effect on the nation and must be shunned as a corrupt and corrupting thing the heart of the lesson the forming of an alliance is no sure sign of love men can hate and despise each other and yet get together for a common purpose the pharisees and the sadducees had little in common apart from the fact that they were all sons of abraham in doctrine in philosophy in out look they were poles apart but their desire to get rid of jesus of nazareth was sufficiently high school news
