"Behold, | send tho promise oil my
Father upon you,p tho word prom'sc 90
notes the thing promised, namely, tne
Holy Spirit. How the disciples d'd
tarry at Jerusalem, praying with one
accord in one place, ana how the prom
ise of the Spirit was fulfilled to them,
enduing them with power, and what
wonders followed Is told in Luke's rec
ord of the "Acts of the Apostles. But
the promise was meant for all times and
for all disciples, and not for them only.
8. The lesson ends with brief nc.
count of the ascension. Were Luke's
the only Gospel it might be inferred
that this followed Immediately upon
the words recorded IN the preceding
verses. This, however. is not neces'
sary inference, nor is il correct one.
In the saying, "And he led them out as
far as Bethany nothing is intlmated
with respect to the time OF the event.
From other accounts we learn that it
actually took place forty days after the
resurrection. The JOY with which the
disciples returned to Jerusalem is ex.
planned in part by the fact that the as.
cension was the final pledge of the ful.
iillment of all that the Master had
promised, and so of the triumph of his
and their cause. Then they must have
recalled those precious words of his in
the upper chamber, when he told them
that in his Fathers house are many
mansions; that he went to prepare "A
place for them, and would come again
TO receive them TO be with him where
he should be. In the first chapter of
the Acts we learn that they we're also
cheered by special promise OF his re-
turn.
In that ascension is there not like
comfort and JOY for us? TO us is it not
a pledge of victory? We, too, look for
his return, and for our own exaltation
to place with him in the Fathers
house. lie is or iorerunner into the
heavens. And even now. though ab.
sent in body, he is in spirit. power, aud
love, present with all his people.
PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.
|. The Bible book from God the
Holy Spirit ever present to enlighten
the mind and warm the heart; a divine,
suffering Saviour, through whom we
have release from the power and curse
OF sin: these are the three great facts of
our religion, TO these we must hold fast.
>. We are not to be content with
merely being saved ourselves. 1t is the
Masters will that repentance and re
mission of sins should be preached in
Christ's name TO all the world. lie
