CLIMAX OF CHRIST'S LIFE IS ASCENSION Event Marks Completion of Ad vent; Dead Saviour Would Have Been a Failure j TIIK (UMAX Or TIIF KIVG. The Intcroatioftal Sunday Srlimil ; ! lifsson for December 20 is "The Ascension."—lmke 21:50-53; Acts | 1:1-11. (By William T. Ellis.) For more than a year past the M i millions of the Sunday school havejj been studying the life of Jesus. Fori ! the past two weeks the lesson theine 1 lias been the Resurrection, concern-1 ' ing which Lyman Abbott says. "The I | resurrection of Jesus Christ is thej ' best attested fact in history." I Now we have come to the splendid > climax of the career of Christ; a cli-1 ' max essential to the completion of I | all that has gone before. Christian-| | ity could not be founded on a closed i | tomb. A dead Christ would have | been an anticlimax and a failure — : even though he would have met all j i the conditions of the people who re gard Jesus as merely an example and , n teacher. For the complexion of I ! Ilis mission and the triumph of His I message, Jesus logically had to be | ! che living and the reigning Christ, jSo after an interval of forty days. , during which he has shown Himself j alive by "many infallible proofs." ! | the hour of ascention came, and this •is the lesson assigned for present I i study. j Appropriately this falls on the Sun-j i day before Christmas. Ascension is j the completion of Advent. The Christ! j who came in Bethlehem lias finished I His course, and now on Olivet has ascended in triumph. The Christmas promise has been fulfilled. All that | ; tlte shepherds and the Wise Men heard i has been brought to pass. The Ite jdeemer is risen and regnant. The Story Itself. First of all let us get the event of | the Ascension clearly in mind as It' ; appears in the inspired record. Luke, | j that best of all historians, narrates !it most fully, and we shall read his ; brief account with whicu his gospel i closes, and then the supplemental ac ' count that he wrote to Theophilus |in the Book of the Acts. To make 1 ' j the story more vivid we shall Quote i from the New Testament in modern j speech. Dr. Weymouth's version, 1 which is so near to the original ! greek. 1 "And He brought them out to ! within view of Bethany, and then , lifted up His hands and blessed them. , And while He was blessing them, He i I parted from them and was carried |up into Heaven. They worshipped Him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy. AfteiVards they were con- . | tinually in attenfLince at the Temple, ! blessing God." "My former narrative. Theophilus, | dealt with all the Jesus did and taught as a beginning, down to the day on ►which, after giving Instructions j through the Holy Spirit to tue Apov> les whom He had chosen, He wis i taken up to Heaven He had c!so, j, i after Vie suffered, shown Himself alive to them with many sure proofs, appearing to them at intervals d:.r lim! ty <lav« an.l speakinj." of the , ! Kingdom of God. And while in their • company He chaivjod Ui-jm ntt 10 1 leave Jerusalem, but to wait for the ! Father's promised gift. " 'This you have heard of,' ile said, |'from me. For John, indeed baptised j ' with water, but before majiy lays have {passed you shall be baptized v.ith the j Holy Spirit.' ij "Once when they were with Him, • 'they asked Him: " 'Master, Is this the time at which ou are about to restore the kingdom if Israel?'

But," while they stood intently gazing into ! the sky as He went, suddenly there were two men in white garments 1 standing by them, who said: " 'Galilaeans, why stand looking, up into the sky? This same Jesus: who has been taken up from you into ! Heaven will come in just the same way j us you have seen Him going into I Heaven.' " A New 1-1 i'e Source. I Wrapped up in the truth of the As-1 cension is the other truth of the life I of the Christian Chtirch. She gets her power not from her organization, | or from her leaders- —of whom, alas, j there is such a scarcity—but from the i risen Christ Himself, "who ever liveth to make intercession," The New Test ament is in-wrought with the tremen- j dous teaching that this new organi zation of believers, which Christ left behind to carry on' His work, is quali fied and equipped and empowered by 1 His own life. The strength of the Church is simply the strength of her King residing in her —"Christ in you the hope of glory." Apart from this indwelling life of the risen Christ in His Church, there is no power in her and no hope for the world. The Church is the instrument of Christ. "We are'but organs mute, till a rnas j ter touches the keys— Harps are we, silent harps that have hung on the willow trees'. Dumb till our heartstrings swell and break a pulse divine," Where Democracy Cannot Prevail. In all the world today—a world whose thought lias be a en profoundly disturbed by the events of the past six months —there is no need greater than that Christians should be domi ii j ted by the con veil ion that Jesus Christ still lives and reigns. The faith of many has" been clouded by the smoke of the world war. They can not reconcile the present cataclysm with the benevolence and omnipo tence of God. They already discern the effect of this crash of Christian I civilization upon the heathen. What may be said to them? j "All authority is given unto me," !So rang the words of Christ ere lie i ascended to the seat of high est all- It hority. They never were so true as j today. The King is upon His throne 'in highest heaven. His plans may be inscrutable, but they are certain !io be carried out. He makes the I wrath pf man to praise Him. In some I way beyond our understanding this teirlble time of trial is going to work | out for the peace and prosperity of j humanity, and for the greater glory I of God. j The Kingdom of Heaven is not a | democracy but an absolute mon larchy. We need to remind ourselves jof this at times. God is supreme. He \ is not constrained to explain His ways |to man. He is working out Kingdom plans that aro vaster than our power of comprehension. With Him a thou l sand years aro as a day. His King- I doin is coming as surely as Ho is King, i Dimly we may discern the providences jof present events. We can only, how ever, think God's thoughts after Him and sometimes afar off. The New World Program The simple fact Is that the hour has struck for a new and vaster pro gram of Christianity. The organ ized Church of our day has come to a crisis. The ecclesiastical program ' and methods have almost broken I down. Kveu the Church Is turning jln repugnance from the eeclessiasti ! KS LESSON for Dec 20 —Climax of K eal politicians who have sapped so ' much of her life and perverted her j dear and simple purposes. Machinery and organization and worldly methods have in good part thwarted the godly ' devotion of the rank and tile of the < ,'hurch. Now this world tumult has shaken the human race Into a new sense of unity and interdependence. Old com placencies have been shattered. Old provincialisms have disappeared. Men are gaining a nett', vast comprehen sive sense of the whole world. In this hour of unequalled crisis, the Kingdom's program and plans have all along been vaster than the Church's fulfillment. The world to day is rising to the level of the real Kingdom conception. Picayune poli cies must pass away. The Immensity of world needs will newly dominate human thinking. Our own nation will be shaped more and more to the needs of humanity. In tills hour the ascension of Christ means nothing less than the ascension of the Church to a new plane of life and service. As the great tower of the Church of the Ascension on Mount | Olivet dominates a wide landscape, so | the work and worship and life of the | Church must be dominated by this larger conception of Christ's thought ■ for His- people. The King's command !is to be executed in more kingly I fashion. | For I dip into the future, far as human I eye could see, j Saw the vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be; Saw the heavens fill with commerce, argosies of magic sails, ; Pilots of purple twilight, dropping down their costly bales: I tfeard the heavens fill with shout ing. and there rained a ghastly dew From the nation's airy navies grap ' pling in the nation's blue; j Far along the world-wide wliisper of the south wind rushing warm, i With the standards of the peoples plunging thro' the thunder storm; Till the war-drum throbb'd no longer. and the battle-fiags were furl'd In the Parliament of man, the Fede ration of the world. —Tennyson. r \ A Camera Gift I Why Not?
