14 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Soturdey, April 14, 1962 BIBLE LESSON Palm Sunday's Inner Meaning By N. SPEER JONES In Paul's letter to Titus we find an ideal basis for a discus- sion of the meaning of Palm Sunday, for a lesson appropria- tely entitled Living in the Light of the Cross. In all three of the other ver- sions of Christ's triumphal en- try into Jerusalem, when He fulfilled the prophecy of Zecha- riah 9:9, we find a key word used by the- multitude following Him -- Hosanna. (See Matthew 21:9; Mark 11:9, and John 12:13). The literal translaton of ths word is "save now." Alhtough his fololwers were deeply disillusioned when the cross was substituted for the throne -- for despite what he said, they expected Him at last to reveal Himself in full power as temporal and spiritual ruler --they realized after His ressur- rection that Christ had indeed "saved (them) now.' Chrst on the cross "gave Himself for us, that He might redeerh us from all iniquity, and His own Possession, zealous of good works" (Titus 2:14). The word "redeem, " derived from "ransom," indicates liberation purchased with a price--our lib- eration from sin, purchased with the price of Christ's own blood. In this act, "bringing salva- tion to all men,"' appeared "'the grace of God" (Titus 2:11). From this grace comes the abil- ity io "live soberly and right- eously and godly in this present world" (Titus 2:12). "Soberly" indicates a life of self-control and self-government --living rightly within oneself. "Righteously" indicates the out- ward manifestation of this, or living rightly with regard to othér men. "Godly" is its rela- tionship to God -- man livng rightly with re gard to his Maker. These are the basic doctrinal truths of which Paul reminds Titus in his letter, written from purify unto Himself a people for Rev. N. T.

Titus, you may re- member, was the young fol- lower, probably of Gentile parentage and a native of Anti- och, who carried Paul's first let- ter to Corinth. When this letter was written he was in charge of the church east of Greece which once boasted the greatest civilizaion of the Mediterranean world. In Homer's time it held a hundred cities. This was the home of the Minotaur and the labyrinth of Greek mythology, and the site of the first famed space launch- ing--Daedalus' and Icarus' at- tempted flight on waxen wings.
