J I The of As Given by a Man BY BESSIE From the Friend There a i yon any- quickly and well it to a man one whose time is valuable who cannot to out until tomorrow Such a man was John Mark To some of us who read our Bibles every mora ine just wherever it happens to tha this man was of the disciples of Jesus probably never in his immediate presence only as an He may been one of who came down to the river to see John baptizing and have viewed from afar the visible of Gods approval of His Son or ho and some writers far as to suppose that he was hoy who canjitxl his lunch which so miraculously that immense corn- From whom then did he fret his information In 16th chap verse he Simon Peter answered and said Thou art the Christ the Son of the living God Now vcrv Marks beirins with almost the same words The of the of Jesus Christ the Son of God Aeain Peter says in his second epistle and the verse Moreover shall endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance Peter here seems to express a desire to writ- a gospel but for some reason he has not done so therefore he gives his aid and all possible assistance to his son in the Spirit Jornn or John Mark for whom he had a very great aneetion third proof that the material was furnish ed by is that it is written from the standpoint of the apostle who most clearly understood the Divinity of Christ ami it is simply an expanded narrative of Peters own preaching as given in the house of Cornelius at as ed in Acts 38 to How Cod anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power who went about doing good and heal ing all that were oppressed of the devil for God was with him and we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem whom they slew and hanged on a tree Him God raised up the third and showed him openly Not to all the people but to witnesses chosen of God even to us who did eat and drink with him after he was raised from the dead ami he commanded us to preach unto the people and to testify that it is he which was of to be Judge of quick and dead We read also that he was a com panion of Paul and Barnabas Be ing thus brought into direct contact and under the daily teaching of two of the broadest minds the deepest thinkers the profound of the New Testament Marks great aim in writing Ms gospel seems to be to present what Christ did in such a light as to lead up to a belief in his Divine It shows us Son of Man proving himself to be Sen of God by the and wonders which he did Let us look for a short time at some of these and we will see how beautifully and gently just as the of the grey mist before the rising sun the two phases of the life of our Divine Master pass into each other We might divide Christs life into three great divi sions I The time of obscurity Of popularity Of oppres sion or opposition First The time of obscurity in cludes the first thirty of his of which Mark says nothing We might call this the time of getting ready or his lifes great work unknown to the world To every one of us comes time during our life when we are apparently doing noiJuniz Simply doing the little things we want so much to do something exeat but Jet us be patient may be using this very means to teach us a lesson that cannot plan our own livea Next Mark token up the Hie of Jesus just as that vast host covers the face of that desert beside the river Jordan and John baptizes with numberless others a vming man and right here we have the beginning of the Divine shown Someone has compared John the Baptist tofche rocklied of a lighthouse It sinks into the ocean and disappears but it holds aloft the light which has for ages out over dark wave of the world He must decreet but He will ite Will notice the brevity but also how vcrv vividly Mark gives the word time dirriiag his gospel tkif us THE ERA FRIDAY notice a few of these parables and lessons they teach for our in struction In the second chapter he speaks of putting a new piece of cloth on an or new wine We cannot natch up our characters here and there anv more than a new piece will fit an old garment We must be all out and out for God This is what He requires of us Again we see by the waters of that beautiful lake with a boat for his pulpit and the curving shore with ascending hills for his auditorium Here he tells his vast host of the difierent classes of people among whom he labored and they are just the same in world today The parable of the Sower and the Seed May we each ask ourselves Am I cultivating the beet so to receive the good seed and bring forth an abundant har vest Mark gives very carefully his Journey throughout Galilee how he healed the leper and man with an unclean spirit and raised the daughter of from how he has not a moment for rest or for sleep and falls asleep in the boat and on his landing feeds the five thousand But there is trouble coming The Pharisees and join with the their sworn enemies and at last he is driven out of Galilee into He did not keep the ceremonies and ordinances according as these hypo crites thought they should be They were putting these outward forms before the true religion After spending some time in Tyre and Sidon and in the region round about and also in the lake town of Phillip we now have the beginning of the end of this greatest drama that has ever been enacted The time of op position Jesus now begins to tell his disciples that the end is near and to for their work after he shall leave them Peter makes his greatest statement Thou art the Christ He seemed to be the first to catch the meaning of the Divinity of Jests and to this new light he was transfigured before three of them We notice now that miracles well nigh cease and his teaching is not for the public but for his disciples How inexpressibly sad as we see this of Sorrows as he turns his face towards and he starts thither from away north in Decapols From the fact that verses out of Mark gives to this last week will give us a little idea of its importance Matthew- takes chapters Luke and John to the events of this last week It has been said that if all the events of the life of Christ were as riven as this week it would SO books as large as our Bible to contain them lie enters Jerusalem riding upon a colt the of an ass attended by a host of people strewing palms in the mad singing Hosanna and goes inuntliatrlv to the temple which he purges a evening he goes out from the crowded streets of Jerusalem to the quiet town of Bethany tin home of Lazarus and as the sun forth oyer the hills round about he took back again to the city Mark describes that last for us very clearly of the supper eaten alone with his disciples the traval Judas the trial be fore Pilate The given that this man should bear away with him the sin the shame the guilt of the very he had come to help would ask you the first opportunity vou have to read this whole gospel at one sitting read it thoughtfully and slowly do not think vou can get all there is in it at one reading or two I assure yon it is impossible Look at it as a whole do not go so much into detail When one sees a paint ing the first thing do is to it from a distance to take it in as a whole thev see the of the blendittf of the colors of the Then some part will attract the attention But in looking at this picture keen eyes fixed on th one who said Born within a stable where the cattle round me stood Trained a carpenter in Narazeth I have toiled and found it good who tread the of labor follow where feet have trod who walk without complain ing do

tithe is the to the windows the key Bring that tithe into storehouse Take it but of your pocket give it to the Lord Then what will happen Why He will open the windows and pour out the blessing You cant kteep the key your pock et and get the How much noise is raised over the text and it is called prayer Fulfil the condi tion and God will fulfil the promise 0 in Words of Faith Tithing Three things have been justly re garded as essential to the mainten ance of religion a holy place sacred time and consecrated substance The place has always been selected with reference to association and convenience Both nature and re velation to indicate that one seven should be devoted to rest and worship while tithes and votive offerings have been required as an evidence of sincerity and de votion Elaborate and ingenious argu ments have been made and specious pleas advanced to show that none of these things is to true worship or that worship itself should be dis carded as man makes progress It has been declared that all places and times and substance are hoi v and to regard one place as peculiarly sacred is to make profane all others or to set apart one dav as is to brand the others as or to devote one portion of ones sub stance to divine use is to regard the other portions as legitimate for selfish The course of reasoning which would abolish the sacred place and the would also forbid the necessity of tithes and offerings These three stand or fall together All are es sential to the maintenance of the or dinances of religion No one of them can be neglected without harm to the spirit of worship Even pagan faiths demand somewhat of thus showing that thev are essential primitive instincts of the soul not surprised therefore that under the Hebrew covenant thev were insisted upon The Tithe it was declared is the Lords So also were the and the appointed place is important thiatcnir atterrtiort at time should be directed to the former For as of old men who mean to be just and honest are rob bing God The laws of God are unvarying Some of them are hard to discover but the one with refer to the payment of our dues or land rent for the privilege of living on His earth are clearly revealed The earth is the Lords and we are his tenants He is a very generous and very patient with His and dishonest or delinquent tenants He does not demand a settlement with us the first of January but soon or lae He will deal accdrateiv with each one All law is moral and spiritual and at tached to it is a Penalty as well as a promise Like the proverbial mill of the gods it grinds slow but exceeding small Though with patience he stands waiting yet with exactness grinds He all This con sideration alone ought to impel pastor and religions teacher to instruction from the Word of God since God is bound to deal with all Yes al ready He is dealing with us The of heaven are assailed with supplications for a Messing does it not come God pointed out to His people of old that they were robbing Him Then lie chal lenged them to bring all the tithes into the storehouse and prove Him if He would not open the windows of heaven and pour them out a bleeeing is noe recorded that accepted
