Sunday School Lesson (Dy RES D B 4172WATFR DD Dean of the Evening School Moody Bible In titute of ( Illinois ) ( 1024 W. Western Newspaper Union ) Lesson for August 3 THE FIRST DISCIPLES OF JESUS PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus Callis Four Helpers JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus' First Followers INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—What It Means to Follow Jesus YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Winning Others to Christ Through the testimony of John the Baptist, his disciples were pointed to Jesus. This same testimony he gave the previous day, but he was not ashamed to repent his sermon. His theme was the Lamb of God, the sin-benner of the world. I. Two of John's Disciples Follow Jesus (v. 35 37). As a result of the Baptist's testimony two of his disciples left him and followed Jesus. One of these disciples was Andrew (v. 40), and presumably the other was John. When the Baptist pointed out Jesus as the Lamb of God, the long expected Messiah, these disciples sought further acquaintance with Jesus. In view of John's request, they looked upon the Lord. This love was sufficient to induce them to follow Jesus. They believed. 11. The Two Disciples Abiding With Jesus (v. 28, 30) 1. Jesus' Question (v. 38) When Jesus saw the disciples following He most kindly inquired as to their object. 2. The Disciples' Reply (v. 30). They answered his question by inquiring as to His dwelling place. Their reply showed their desire to go apart privately where they could disclose their hearts to Him. Knowing their hearts, He invited them to His place of abode. III The Disciples Bringing Others to Jesus (v. 40) The very genius of Christianity is self-propagation. The usual method is to begin with those nearest us—home folks and relatives—and pass out to everwidening circles. The disciples who were with Jesus in blessed fellowship go at once to tell others of the priceless treasure they have found. 1. Andrew Brings Peter (vs 40-42). This is a beautiful sight of brotherly affection expressing itself in bringing another to Christ. The best place to begin our testimony for Christ is among our kinsfolk (Luke 8:39). This was a great place of work for Andrew, for Peter became one of the pillars of the church of God. 2 Philip Bringing Nathaniel (vv. 43-46). Christ found Philip the following day as he would go forth into the lee. Philip followed Him in response to a personal invitation. As soon as Christ found Philip, Philip found Nathaniel and witnessed to him concerning the messiahship of Jesus. He said unto him, "We have found Him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets did write, Jesus of Nazareth" (v. 45). Nathaniel was somewhat skeptical, but he was honest. Philip had the wisdom not to argue with him, but brought him to Jesus. The one who is honest when brought into the presence of Jesus will soon have all doubts removed (John 7:17). IV. Nathaniel, Seeing and Hearing Jesus, Testifies to His Divinity (sv. 47-51). As soon as Nathaniel saw and heard Jesus all his doubts rolled away. He who acts upon the light given shall see greater things (sv. 50, 51). Angels ascending and descending upon the Son of Man with the open heavens shows that Jesus Christ is the means of communication between earth and heaven (Heb. 10:10, 20; Eph. 2:13; Gen. 28 12). This narrative concerning the experiences of the first disciples exhibits the following stages of Christian experiences: 1. Hearing About Jesus (v. 30). How important it is that the minister and teacher have a proper conception of Jesus as the sacrificial Lamb, the sin bearer of the world. 2. Looking Upon Jesus (v. 36). It is necessary that the ginner definitely fix his attention upon Jesus. 3. Following Jesus (v. 37). It is not enough to merely look upon Him. There must be definite efforts to follow after, to inquire of Him. 4. Abiding With Jesus (v. 39). Those who earnestly look upon Jesus and inquire after Him he welcomes into blessed fellowship. 5. Witnessing for Jesus (vv. 41, 45) The first thing the one does who has come to Jesus is to begin to witness for Him. 6 Bringing Others to Jesus. The chief delight of the one who has come to know Jesus by a personal experience is to bring others to film. Success "I first of all," said I resident Gar- field when a boy, "I must make myself a man; if I do not succeed in that I can succeed in nothing." Good Temper The difficult part of good temper consists in accommodation to the ill humor of others. Duty Omitted Every duty omitted obscures some truth that we should know.—Ituskln. SUGGESTIONS FOR CONSIDERATION SUGGESTIONS FOR CONSIDERATION It is evident that we have either failed to know or to acquiesce God's Kingdom plan. As to his financial plan erect christian should be, at least, a fighter and a faithful steward of his Master. Out of the tithes coming into the church, at least, One Dollar and Twenty-five Cents per member should go for Kingdom Work outside of the immediate field. The habit of quarterly and annual calls for finance by all the auxi laries from the same people is a menace to the work. Only the church is responsible for the fostering of the kingdom. The call therefore, ought to be to the church and the amount sufficient to care for auxiliary demands. Hence, the following suggestions: Each church make itself responsible for 2125 annuarly for denominational work outside the local fields; one-fifth of which may be credited to each auxiliary end two-fifths to the the church, proper. Further, one-fifth of the total amount to be paid at the district and state quarterly meetings and two fifths at the district and state annual meetings. Equally divided or as the church sees fit. Each church should select a standing finance committee to collect moneys for denominational work outside the local field. Such committee should report quarterly to the respective boards. All money sent by the church or auxiliaries for the home or foreign fields or education should be sent to our State Secretary. A special committee should be appointed at each board to receive all moneys and receipt same. A committee should be appointed to receive all bills and recommend payment of same. The fifth Sunday in each month should be known as Denomination Day; at which time the denomination treasure should be replenished. All bills of the quarterly meeting should be recommended by the committee and paid out by the treasurer endorsed by the Executive Board. Which Board should be composed of whoever is selected by the association and the heads of auxiliaries. Each messenger be asked to give One Dollar annually instead of Twenty-five Cents to each auxiliary. Said money to be used for representation in the state and national meetings. Constitution-The Association should make one constitution including all auxiliaries. Each Secretary must have his minutes in the hands of the print committee ten days after the close of the meeting. All officers of district should be active in the corresponding auxiliary in his local field. The standing enrollment fee for annual meeting should be fixed. Perhaps not more than $1.50. No minister who in any way encourages church spits should be fellowshipped by the brethren. The size of our minutes should be reduced to the minimum. Milk Fed— SPRING CHICKENS ALMOND POULTY Co.

The pink ice cream served by the very efficient and affable Mrs. A. W. Ross, wife of the Executive Secretary, Dr. A. W. Ross, was a treat, and very refreshing in deed. Ministers and Christian workers from the six districts in Kansas, were present; also a representative number of white Baptists from the city of Topeka, all serving God on the high plain of Gospel, equity and unity The noble achievements of the late Rev. J. II. Van Leu, left to monument his name stand out visible to all; yet on this ground and among this assembly were men equally as great as those of the past, who are among the present master builders of the uni kingdam. We mention with pride Dr. J. T. Crawford, (white) Secretary of Missions, Baptist State Convention; Dr W. A. Bowren, President of the State Convention; Dr. J. R. Richardson, President of the Board of Regents Dr. G. N. Jackson, Ex Moderator of Kaw Valley; Dr. W. H. Young, Moderator of Kaw Valley, and 1st Dean of the Seminary; Dr J. W.

Teal, Ex-Moderator of Southwestern District, Dr C. P. Morrow, Ex-Moderator of Smoky Hill District; and that great prince of preachers and profound Theologian, Dr. P. D. Skinner. These men are some of the pioneers who bore the blunt of the burden in the days of the early struggles of the Seminary. Being educated in this school is an African, boy Samuel Stubberfield, possessing a fine physique, and princely appearance just one of the fruits of our own Great Missionary (to Africa) Mrs. F. B.

Young, Calvary, Topeka displayed rare talanes in both vocal and instrumental music; Miss Van Leu, daughter of the late Dr. Van Leu, presided at the piano, gracefully, and is destined for greater service. Mrs. G. N. Jackson, Lawr'ce, another musician of rare attainments contributed her services during on session. Solos, and choral singing resounded throughout the vast expanse of this spacious building with heavily strains. SolocMrs. Taylor Calvary, Topeka, Professor Langston, Metropolitan, KansasCity; Pastor A. L. Branch, Chanute, Pastor, C. P. Morrow, Ottawa. Others whose names do not appear displayed their ability according to his or her peculiar fitness. Suffice it to say, a more brilliant collection of men and women in attendance cannot be surpassed anywhere in this country. The Pictorial Lecture given by Dr. W. A. Sharp on China, and parts of India was so transparent as to make one feel that he had taken a trip with the Missionary in these benighted parts of the world's foremost Missionaries, and ranks among the master minds of this day on the subject of World Wide Missions. It is an honor for any Institution to have such a character connected with it. It is nothing shorter than the Providence of God. Thursday morning, July 10th after Dr. Denton had delivered his philosophical address on the exposition of the Scriptures, Dr. Ross announced that owing to the physical condition of the iminent expositor, he was permitted to be excused from further service of the present Summer assembly. Dr. W. A. Sharp, Dean J. H. Garnett, Dr. P. D. Skinner and Mrs. F. B. Watson, resumed the periods occupied by the former. Those contributing to the excellency of services so beautifully, and Christ-like rendered by Dr. Denton, were Dr. W. A. Bowren, Dean J. H. Garnett, and Dr. C. P. Morrow. At the conclusion of which a unanimous standing vote of thanks by the entire constituency paid tribute to all that he been said in favor of the far famed Theologian. The response by the Dr. was well received. Mrs. G. R. Brilgeforth entertained the lady students of Latimer Hall at her residence to a 6 o'clock dinner, which was another rare treat. The hostess possesses a pleasing personality, and was an impatient entertainer. At this same panatial residence, nearing the cause of the Summer Assembly, Principal, and Mrs. G. R. Brilgeforth, invited the entire student body to a watermelon feast. Nestled on the curbing, porch, and emerald lawn beneath the bowers, cedar and locust trees, and the sweet perfumes or blooming roses could be seen both faculty, and students, with Lieut. W. L.

He may do this without proselytizing. I have always adhered to the principle that every man should serve God better his God and his fellowmen. science. I have never sought to chase a men's religious faith; rather to help strengthen it and to help him serve better his God and his fellow men. "I feel that the Secretary is a man with a mission, not a man with a job. It is his mission to make good men. He is an ambassador of Jesus Christ. A job is killing; a mission is life. The direction of such an enterprise as the Y. M. C. A., is replete with business problems. These I enjoy. But I never would have remained a secretary if its appeal had been only a business appeal. Always, I have felt the urge of a mission, no matter how pressed I was with business affairs." From "Association Men," Cherryvale News Notes. Sunday services were well attended. Sunday July 20th.

The writer asked an answered his question, viz: "Has God Predestinated some of the human family to be lost?" is his question. Certainly not, is his answer. Be careful writer, for fear that you are rejecting the truth and adding one more to the number, whose darkening counsel word without wisdom. The finite mind of man is not trustworthy on the doctrine of the deep and mysteriously dealing on God with man. Therefore, we allow the Scriptures settle it, and lets man stay in the plain path, lest he get lost. Predestination, election, fore-ordination and chosen are all Scripture, whether or not we understand them. Let's take our dictionary and try to define or meaning of those four above words: pre means before, destine means to fix. Of Pharaoh, God said, for this cause have I raised him up (to be destroyed) that I may be honored. How would you explain this? Rom. 8:29, 30. Styled as the four golden links in man's salvation. If there was any time that predestination began it was in the eternal counsel of the Trinity; also election and the choice made. All these were on His eternal program. In theology, lalled here is in regeneration. Third link is justification, a quital of the charge of guilt, saved from sin. Sanctification not mentioned, the understood, 2nd Thess. 2:13. The fourth and last link in this four-linked chain is glorification, which is the state of the church triumphed. Christ said when on earth, all that the Father has given me (Christ) will come to me (Christ) what of those whom has not been given Him? Again St. Paul preached three years in Corinth. On leaving he declared, as many that were ordained to eternal life; believed and of course were baptized into the church; Now, how would you explain these declaration of Scripture? God said of Jeremiah Ch. 1, Before he was born, I ordained Him to be a prophet. Here is choice, election and predestination taught here as well as many other similar Scriptures. The eternal purpose of God, stand without works and his program is co-evil with him sinners' destruction, is their final reeinders destruction, is their final rejection of the Gospel and their unbelief. Ye will not come to me that ye might have life. This is Free Moral Agent. But when God destines a thing, He also destines the means to reach His destined end. FOR SALE!!
