Such entertainments are a good thing. They help to bridge the gap which often ex- ‘sts hetween the school and the com- munity at large. ir the various, [FUE LESSONS ‘SUNDAY, APRIL 10 "The Christian’s Sacrifice — Praise— Heb. 13: .16; Hos. 14: 1-3. “We are told that the opening ‘words of Hos. 14 are really predictive—that they mean “the time will come when thou shalt return,” and that they refer to ‘the small minority of the Hebrew nation. The great majority were, of couse, hopelessly lost, for they would not ‘repent. In Exod. ‘23: 14-17, In whieh the three great annual feats of the Jews were appointed, we read, “And none shall appear before me “empty.” The admonition is repeated in Exod. +34: 20. In this chapter in Hosea words are suggested to take the place of sacrifices and burnt offer. ings—not the words of God, nor of the { prophet, but the sincere words of a penitent people. The meaning of that of the psalmist in Psa. 51: 17: “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.” The author of the letter to the Heb- rews was discussing the relation of the work of Jesus on:our behalf to that of the high priest and had just compared the burning, without the camp, of the bodies of the animals whose blood had been brought into the holy place, with the suffering of Jesus on the cross. His exhortation, therefore, “Let us offer up a sacrifice of praise,” has in it the thought of “bearing the reproach of Christ.” The Meaning of the Theme. We are in the habit of contrasting words with deeds in the religious life to the disparagement of the former. The saying, ‘‘Actions speak louder than words,” is a falr statement of the attitude of the average person on this theme. But, fundamentally, there is no difference between deeds and words as expressions of the religious life. ‘If the words are sincere, they are acceptable unto God, and not even deeds are acceptable that are not sin- cere, In this matter of sacrifices, for instance, the multitude of them had no weight with God unless they were expressions of genuine devotion. [salah even represents God as being displeased with them (Isa. 1: 13): “Bring no more vain oblations; {n- cense is a nabomination to me.” CHRISTINENDERVOR NOTES — rn APRIL TENTH Topic—God is Here.

God knows whencd my ways come from and whither they go, and I know only where they are (v. 3). fore: not, however, as by a hostile army, but as by a protecting wall (v. 5). pc : We cannot understand how God can possibly know and be as much as He knows and is, but the more we think about Him, the nearer we approach to that understanding (v. 6). We run away from God’s leading, and flee from His protecting, and re- ject with scorn His Blessedness. Is there greater folly than this? (v. 10.) Suggestions. Spend some time, before you pray to God, realizing His presence with you there. b Before you pray to Christ, think of Him as He was at some time on earth, talking in the Bethany home, or walk- ing on the sea; then remember that, just such as He was then, He is now with you in your room. Christ departed rom earth and the Holy Spirit came so that we could think of God not as merely in Pales- tine but as also in London and New York and Chicago. : Only one thing shuts out God from any place; He cannot be where sin is —except, indeed, as a judge. [{lustrations. We can go wherever there is air, but there is only a thin layer of air around the world. God is to our spir- its what air is to our bodies, and we can go everywhere throughout all uni- verses, because He is everywhere. Gravity indreases as the square of the distance a body falls; but a loving heart carries its own distances, and we are everywhere equally near to God if we love Him. . Ohio Legislature.
