"Como nonr. carry your brethren from befun tho sanctuary out of th camp." Thus their bodies, as In the case uf Aiiiinlas and Hnpphlrit, were buried, but what about Nadab and Ablliu? We never burv people, strictly spciikiiii; wo lury th" i'odies or temples in which they sojourned for a sea sun. It has boon a irrcut comfort tome .j think of this since ever I pra-ped the fact that if my body ever has a burial I will let be then' that day, but absent from the body and present with the lord, with Christ, which is far better (Hill.

Home uf the believers nt Corinth were sick, mid some Hod, because of trniisifroesi.m (I Cor. xl., 30). It Is plainly stated In I Cur. ill., 1 1, lo, that it is possible to have rewards for service, aud it Is possible to lose olio's works atnl yet be saved. 6 "Uncover n"t your heads, neither rend your clothes." Mournini; ofttlmes bus in It larno element of rebellion against ioi. This wo must desperately resist, lest wo llnd fault with God. We must even take sides with Ood, even thoutth His cliastenltitfs fall on thoso who are dearest to us. If we love our loved ones more than wo love Ood, wo are not worthy of Him. Tho routcst lover must have the Kroatest love, and In every dark and try-iny; hour wo must still hold to thia "Ood Is love," nnd His ways are just aud true. 7.

We sliuiild uever desire In any way to go out from Ills service who hath called us with such a holy eallln"; never In any way lie conformed to tho world which lieth In tho wicked one, but anointed with the same Hplrlt who anointed Him, walk In His stops, Kulior about duu( good (Acts x., !H). H, . "And tho I.ord spake unto Aaron, sayliik', I'o n t drink wine nor Htruuu; drink, thou nor thy sons with thee, when ye go in. to tlm tabernacle of the nom.'ri'k'ati"ti, lest yo die."
