How We Know
That Christ Rose!
From the Dead
By REV. JAMES M. CRAY. D. a
Da ef lUr BiU mmM
TEXT-Now If Chrtat bo prenrhMl that
hf rose from the doail, how say noma
among you that thirc l no reaurrectlon
of the dadT-I Cor. 16:12. .
At this season of the year our
thoughts are turned more than usual
to the resurrec
tion of Jesus
Christ. This is
the keystone of
the arch of Chris
tianity and tbe
basis of our own
hope of life be
yond the grave.
Therefore It Is of
tbe first Impor
tance to be
sure about It, We
ought to have a
firm foundation
for our faith, for
which reason we
shIc, and will try
to answer, the
question, How do we know that Jesus
Christ arose from the dead?
Historical Monuments.
Antiquarians say that the strong
est evidence of an event of early
times is a historical monument erect
ed to establish it. Take our Fourth
of July. What an everrecuirlng
proof !t Is of the Declaration of Inde
pendence put forth by our political fa
thers as the Magna Charts of our na
tion! We trace the history of this
day from decade to decade until we
reach the point when It first came to
be. What then originated Jt, or what
wrplanatlon shall be given for Its ob-
aerrance at that time? There must
be some cause adequate for such an
effect, and we find it In that action of
the continental congress.
Just so we have the first day of
the wek which we keep as one of
rest and worship. All the people do
not keep this day, but many do. who
are called Christians. They are found
in all nations and among all tongues.
Moreover they have kept this day for
nearly 2,000 years, and yet thore vis
a time when It began to be. what
originated it, what explains Its coming
Into being? There must be a cause
adequate for such an effect, and It is
found In the resurrection of Jesus
Christ from the dead on that day.
This proof is all the stronger when
we recall that the flint Christians were
Jews, snd that until that time they
bad always kept the seventh day of
the week, and not tbe first It must
have been a revolutionary event In
deed to produce a change like this.
The Testimony of Eye-Witnesses.
But going further back, what ground
had our Christian fathers for believing
that Jesus Christ arose from the dead
on that day? To mention only a single
fact, they had the testimony of 61'4
eye-witnesses, mentioned by Paul in
I Corinthians 15:5-8. One eye-wit-
ness might be mistaken, or two or
three might be mistaken, but 514 bard
ly! And not when you remember thnt
tOO of tbem saw him at once. And
furthermore the post-resurrection ap
pearances of Jesus Christ wera many,
for he remained upon the earth for
six weeks. And not only were they
many, but very Intimate, if we may so
express It. He walked and talked
with bis disciples, and he ate and
drank with them. And he afforded
them the evidence not only of the
senses of sight and sound, but of
touch, too. Thomas was directed to
thrust his hand Into the wound In the
side of JesuB. and told to "be not faith'
less, but bellevlm?." The man who
rejects such testimony Is Incapable
of accepting any similar testimony to
anything or anybody.
Personal Experience.
And yet the man who truly believes
on the Lord Jesus unrisi, nas ew
dence of a more Intimate and satisfac
tory kind than either of those named
He has the witness in himself, for he
himself Is risen from the dead, not
as yet physically, but in a spiritual
sense. He has risen from the death
of sin into the life of righteousness.
He knows this to be a fact, and It is
so great a marvel In his experience
that the physical resurrecUon to fol
low Is altogether removed from the re
gion of uncertainty or doubt. .
But how did this resurrection take
nlace In bis case? Simply by be
lieving the testimony of Ood concern
In a tbe death and resurrection of
Jesus Christ. This Is a great mystery,
but the moment a man believes what
Ood has said about his son who died
for our sins and rose again for our
Justification, that moment he la born
again, he Is a new man, In a new
world, with a new hope In his heart
You do not need to oler him further
proof that Jesus ChriBt rose from the
dead, he carries with him all the proof
hfl requires In his own soul.
Once I was blind, but now I can see,
The light of the world Is Jegui.
No power can effect this change In
a man nut uoa; ana u uoa enecis u
when a man believes, that is all the
testimony the man needs that his Bon
died and rose again. Why not try
It for yourself? It costs nothing bnt
tbe surrender of your will to God, but
it is worth more than everything else
you have In this world.
Tasted Death for Every Man.
We see Jesus, who was made a lit
tle lower than the angels for the
suffering of death, crowned with
glory and honor; that he by the grace
of Ood should taste death for every
man. Hebrews J: 9.
We have more to do today than
to make a living; we have to make
life. Let us not spoil the one In seek'
ing to gain the othor. J. H. Jowett
So long as mankind lasts there wilt
be differences of opinion; but that Is
I no reason why there should not ba

LESSON FOR APRIL 11
DAVID ANOINTED KING.
LKBBON TEXT-I Bnmuel M.4-1J.
GOLDEN TEXT Man lookclh on th
outward appearance, but Jehovah looketh
on the lit art I Samuel 16:7 R. V.
After the events recorded In last
Sunday's lesson Samuel retired to
Raman never again to see Saul's face.
Samuel "mourned" (15:35) 1. e., be
wailed and lamonted the deposed king.
It was noble for Samuel thus to be
grieved over Saul's sin; still, God bad
work for him to do. There Is a sor
row thut "worketh repentance" which
Is pleasing In the sight of God, but
that Idle sorrow which spends itself
In unprofitable mourning is detrimen
tal to man and a hindrance to tba
kingdom of God (ch. 8:7; 15:1). Men
may fall but tbe kingdom goes for
ward. We do not interpret verse 2
as suggesting any subterfuge on God's
part but rather that God refused to
pay any attention to Samuel's fear.
God answers fear by giving us duties
to perform and in their performance
we are delivered from our fears.
I. David Chosen to Be King, w. 4-10.
Saul, the clamorous choice of the peo
ple, was not succeeded by David "the
man after God'a own heart" for sev
eral years after this lesson. God'a
win In this matter was shown to
Samuel progressively: (a) In chapter
13:14 Samuel la Informed that God
hath sought "a man after bis own
heart;" (b) In 16:1 be Is told to go
and And tbe king whom God bad pro
vided; (c) In verse 12 Samuel
la at last definitely told whom God
has selected. This selection Is in ac
cordance with tbe prophecy made cen
turies before regarding the kingly
scepter (Gen, 49:10). Of course it
was high treason, this act Samuel was
about to perform, and Saul yet had
many friends and supporters (v. 2).
God seems to have permitted Samuel
to use one avowed purpose to con
ceal the real one, but "such a course Is
one to use but sparingly" (Machuen)-
God can and does protect those whom
he sends (Pa. 34:7) and "man Is Im
mortal till his work is done." Just
what or how did not concern Samuel
for be bad God's promise (v. 3). A
step at a time was sufficient and In
taking each step Samuel was to tell
the exact truth.
Thus God guides and tests his serv
ants. Samuel was a Judge as well aa
prophet (ch. 7:1C) and the people
of Bethlehem were agitated at hla
arrival. It may be, too. that these
elders were fearful of incurring tba
displeasure of Saul. There was no
occasion for fear, as Samuel's purpose
was to sacrifice and his mission one of
peace even aa the angelic messengers
who quieted the shepherds with their
message of "peace when great
David's greater son" was ushered Into
the world. Jesse was a grandnon of
Ruth the MoabltesB and also a de
scendant of Rahab the harlot On
bis father's side ho belonged to the
strong tribe of Judah. He was evi
dently a man of some wealth, certain
ly in his children. After the sacrl
tlce and before the feast Samuel Is
made acquainted with the sons of
Jesse. Tbe first. Ellab, was tall and
good to look upon and at once Samuel
fixed upon him as the certain choice
for Jehovah. - Samuel made this choice
in spite of his disappointment In Saul.
likewise of attractive physique. There
are no more eloquent words In tba
Bible than those found in verse 7.
We have only to read of Eliab's sub
sequent unjust treatment of David
(17:28) to see that Ood was amply
Justified In his Judgment ot this candl
date. Social rank, lineage, fortune,
physlca nrowesa or age will never
be a sufficient substitute for charac
ter. It Is a subtle snare to be de
ceived by outward appearances. "If
I take care of my character my repu
tation will take care ot Itself" (D. L.
Moody). The Lord looks upon the
heart; what does be see in yours?
It. David Anointed King, w. 11
13. Seven sons are set aside and yet
Samuel did not hear the voice of
God'a approval. In seeming dismay ha
asks, "Are hore all thy children?"
Jesse seems to have made a careless
and reluctant reply that tbe youngest
was away from home tending sheep.
Thereupon Samuel asserts that "we
will not sit down (to the sacrificial
feast) till he be brought hither." It Is
from such lowly positions that Ood la
constantly promoting men to positions
of responsibility and prominence.
Witness Carey, Livingston, Moody and
a hundred others past and present
David at this time was about fifteen
years old (Beecher). His name meaha
"darling," significant ot the affection
of his mother, whose name Is un
known, but to whom David twice
makes reference (Ps. 86:16; 116:16).
David was short, compared with his
brothers, but had bright eyes (v. II
marg.) and a fair face a "comely
person" (v. 18). David was agile and
strong and though seemingly scoffed
at by his brothers and neglected by
his father It did not pervert his good
nature nor turn him from the perform
ance of bis duties. Samuel did not
greet David us he had greeted Saul,
he may have boen dtspappointed. This
gives emphasis to tbe words in verse
12, "Arise anoint htm: for tbla
is he." How God spdlo to Samuel
Ib of small moment. The man who
does not believe God Is able to coma
near to bis creatures and communicate
his will to them might aa well not be
lieve in Ood at alL
David is anointed, set apart, for tbe
kingship, but is not equipped nor does
he enter upon his offices till later,
Saul had been thus set apart when
none were prosent (9:27; 10:1).
So it is possible that Jesse and hla
family connected this ceremony with
some work for Ood rather than with
the kingship.

seventeenth century, owlDg to one of
tbe guards' bands having refused. In
a body, to play at an entertainment
organized by the officers. As none of
the men were attested, they could not
be punished for Insubordination, so
the officers petitioned tho duke of
York, then commander-in-chief, that
bandsmen should In future be made
subject to military law. To this the
duke would not agree, but he brought
over from Hanover for the guards a
complete German military band, which
Included negro players of the bass
drum, cymbals and triangles. Nearly
every regiment In the service has
tened to reorganize Its band, engaging
colored performers for all percussion

Oriental Water Bottles.
Hebron, one of the oldest cities In
Palestine, has always been famous for
Ita Oriental water bottles, modo of
goat skins. Here are to be found large
tanneries, where these receptacles are
turned out by the thousands. Lying
upon the ground In rows may be seen
hundreds of gnat skins awaiting pur
chasers. Each skin Is inflated, either
with water or with air, so that the
buyer may know it is perfectly water
tight. The majority of the skins used
come from Arabia, while a large num
ber are also received from the lib
ations. They are brought to Hebron
by tbe camel caravans and are pur
chased by tho tanneries and turned
Into bottles. They pass through many
processes and a tanner will spend a
week upon a single skin before It is
rendered water-tight and serviceable.
Krjtn Hebron these old "bottles" are
sent to all parts of tho EnBt, thou
