LESSON PARAGRAPH
Hebrews. first chaDter, Is the best COM
mentary on this. You might suppose. to
see one take his seat. that his work was
done; but in Scripture imagery it is but
just begun. When the Master wished to
call tine disciples for instruction and minis
tration he sat. So the apostle in the
Hebrews represents hin as sitting down at
the right hand OF the Father as our better
spokesman to guide his church in che con-
quest OF the world; "henceforth expecting.

God has chosen the chu CHI as the instru- !
ment for the glorifying OF his son and the
extension Of his kingc~n. It is "out Of
Zion" that his scepter IL 90 extend. And
This makes us very clear as to our
duty. We are not to withdraw from the |
world in a separate and select community;
how then could it be said OF Christ, rule
thou in the midst of thine enemies?" Wien
Christ said. I pray not that thou shouldst
take them out Of the world, but that those
shouldst keep them from the evil" there
was a positive as well as a negative signif- |
cameo to the prayer. Just in proportion as |
into all the ways of life. may the kingdom
be S i'd to come for this world.
The Lord hath sworn" that is our hope. |
In that oath and covenant Is wrapped our
redemption and the salvation of the
uttermost parts Of the earth. Africa is
there us well as America. AS surely as
Christ has a crown that will not be taken
from him, SO sure is the ultimate establish
ment Of holiness and righteousness
throughout the earth. 1t is unfortunate
that the translators did not bring out this
distinction Of the Hebrew between Jehovah
and Lord. The latter wore occurs Tut
the fifth. 1t is Jehovah who hath sworn.
1t is the Lord at his right land who exc
rutes the oaths. Nothing hinders him in |
his course. Yea. the very cup of afniction
and suffering that is sent like q stream
aar9ss his path. being quaffed. Is made to
that uplifted Head the church goes for
ward to certain victory.
