Lesson 111. Mark iX, 2-13 Sunday, April 17, 1904. JESUS TRANSFIGURED. Six days intervene between the confes- sion and the transfiguration, or including the day of the credo and the night of the glorification, ‘‘about eight days,’’ St. Luke says. The days are left blank in the Gos- pels, but no doubt they were filled with teaching and preparation for the dread cli- max near at hand. The place was very well suited for the purpose. In this semi - beathen locality they were for once heyond intrusion of the pharisees and scribes The terrible lesson could be taught without interruption. A whole week of divine affirmation of impend ing rejection, humiliation, suffering and death. A whole week of human shrink- ing, protestation, fear. The teacher must give the line upon line about the gain which is loss and the loss which is gain. There must be the sharp rebuke, ‘Get thee behind me, Satan I”? All the transcendent ly important and weighty instruction of the week is wrapped up in the luminous scene of the transfiguration. It was the *‘commencement’’for their school of sorrow. The merciful kindness of itis appar- ent. The setting suited the gem. The daz- zling whiteness of everlasting snow; the immovable might of rocky barricade; the solemn arch of night—a more appropriate environment for the most lovely and ma- iestic of scenes cannot be imagined. Pur- ity, power, solemnity were in the face of Nature, as she beheld her Maker's glorifi- cation, It was a week after Peter’s confession of the Messiah’s Divinity and Jesus’ revela- tion of the suffering in store for Him—a week spent in the same locality,and crowd- ed with converse about these matters— that the Master went up at night into one of Nature's oratories on some spur of Mt. Hermon. He took with Him the three most advanced of His disciples, the domi- pant spirits of the college of apostles—the Rock-man and the Sons of Thunder. Lifted toward heaven and above the pos- sibility of intrusion, the four bowed in prayer. Then, as afterward in Gethsemane the Savior went apart for a season of per- sonal communion with Hie father, and the apostles wrapped themselves in their outer robes and fell asleep. Possibly, in that darkest hour just before the dawn, they awakened with an intuitive apprehension of something preternatural transpiring. They saw a sight of fadeless splendor. A third of a century afterward Peter wrote of it as if it had transpired the day before. The form of the servant in which Jesus had condescended to clothe Himself thirty- three years before was now dissolving. The fullness of the Godhead was unveiled. He shone, not like Moses with a reflected light; like the sun, His radiance was self-derived. His seamless robe became a web and woof of electrical light. His countenance, like snow on which the sun is shining, or like the san itself on meridian. But language of earth is bankrupt in effort to describe that scene. The etherealized body of Jesus rises,and the two holy ones come from glory to meet Him in the air. The sonls of the apostles, keyed up to the occasion, recognize the vis- itants as, the one. the man of Sinai, the other, the man of Carmel—the founder and the restorer of Israel. The subject of their conversation is the same as that which Jesus had bad with His disciples at the base of that very mountain—the cup He was 80 soon to drink, the baptism He was to be baptized with,the exode He was soon to make. Peter, in the ecstasy of his joy, burst in upon the conversation of the immortals. The woody slopes, with their wealth of ce- dar boughs,suggest the improvising of hasty shelters, after the manner of the Taber- nacle feast-time. He will fain prolong this scene until all Israel can be summoned to that mount, and behold Moses and Elijah, the law and tbe prophets, humbly paying court to the glorified Messiah. That will end all opposition. The vation will no longer be faithless or unbelieving. Ineffably glorious as the scene had been already, it has not yet reached its climax. That cioud-shaped splendor that appeared to patriarchs and prophets, and rested on the golden wings of the cherubim, appears once more in these latter days. Moses, Eli- jah, Chriss, law, prophecy, atonement are all wrapped in one. But the superiority of Christ and His atonement is witnessed by the voice of the Father. If the lawgiver and prophet bave such an exalted glory, what must be the Divine majesty of the One ip whose train they follow! He hath on His vesture a name written—King of kings and Lord of lords. THE TEACHER'S LANTERN. The transfiguration isthe heavenly Amen to the earthly confession of the Divinity and Messiabship of Jesus. Hardly had that comprehensive creed framed itself on Peter’s lips, and been consented to by the apostles, than they were all shaken by the revelation of the iznominious death in store for the Messiah. That ineffable scene on Hermon fixed and settled a faith that was tottering to its fall. It nerved them for BEER EEREEE RES Gethsemane and Calvary. It was fitting that they should see the celestial evidence of His eternal Godhead and glory on the hither side of the cross. Before they saw His visage marred, they were privileged to see it transfigared. * * * * * That scene bad its merciful ministration for Jesus’ self as well as His apostles. It was not merely scenic or pictorial; it was of substantial comfort to Him who was touched with a feeling of infirmity, and terapted. * * * * *® It has been well said that He who for us is to enter by a voluntary death into glori- fication, must first learn and actually ex- perience in regard to himself, otherwise than by the knowledge arising from faith, that the glory of life and light is already present in his humanity; that it cannot break forth in bim, and radiate from him, even without his passing throngh death. * * * * * The descent from the Mount of Transfig- uration was like a second descent from heaven—Jesus’ earthly life in miniature. We see whence He came, what glory He laid aside when He humbled Himself and took the form of a servant. * * * * * We have an example of the honor and joy of the ministering spirits sent forth to minister. What unapproachable dignity— to hold high converse with the Man of Gal- ilee, and soothe and fortify Him as He ap- proached His crucial experience! * * * * * These ministrants came from the grave, but from the grave conquered. Elijah ex- perienced the ‘‘change’’ which those who are alive at Jesus’ second coming shall an- dergo. Moses died,but his body was prob- ably immediately raised alive again. So the two are samples of the paradisaic form and appearance. * * * * * The transfiguration scene, aside from its revelation to Jesus Himself, may well be considered a revelation of the resurrection body. Wesee. as in a mirror, the nature and appearance of it. This transient trans formation was a prelude to the permanent. It was a glimpse of what Jesus shall be in the eternal world. And all shall finally be like him. * * * * * The doctrine of evolution has so far pre- vailed that it is now conceded that there has been an age long and successful, aspi- ration and struggle of life from lowest and low forms to higher and highest. The res- urrection hody may be considered, in a sense, the last step of the ascent of man. * ES * * * The old form in wnich the doctrine was presented was that upon a fixed, but dis- tant day, there should be a universal and simultaneons resurrection. The new form asserts an instantaneous clothing of the spirit in the hour of death with a new body which shall be suited to the sphere. The hodily appearance of Moses and Eli- jah at the transfiguration favors this latter view. They were apparently not in any ‘‘intermediate state,”’ certainly there was no ‘‘soul-sleeping’’ for them. * * * * * The new body with which the spirit will clothe itself is as St. Paul describes it, in- corruptible, glorious, powerful, spiritual, and immortal. We may fairly believe it will in appearance be like the transfigured body of Jesus. * * * * * REITER HINGS THAT COUNT--- MATERIALS STYLE TAILORING ASSORTMENT AND PRICE All as you would have it, at. the Fauble Store.

Then I was advised to use Electrio Bitters; to my great joy, the first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man.
