To all such the ery of God comes: “Come out from among them and be ye separate.” The world has always been the enemy of the Son of God. and ha who allows himself to be in touch with it in the least will deny his Master fore he ix aware of it.

For this attack upon his fellow man he was doubt. we amenable to the law, and possibly might have been tried and condemned ii Jesus had not replaced the ear. The mem. ory of Malehus aroused all the terror im aginable in him, and before he knew it the third denial was upon him, and with re. peated oaths and cursings he said: “I tell you that I know Him not.” This is the denial that comes because of some unconfessed sin. Alas for the man who allows any sin to go without imme diate confeasion It will spring upon him some day like a tiger from the jungle, and will overthrow him before he can have time to call for help.
