z. Verses 80 80.

Christ addressed these verses mainly against
unbelieyers. They took exception to his
statements that they were slaves They de-
MED the fact. They made an untrue assertion.
We remember they were for centuries slaves
under Pharaoh; for 40 years they were in cap
they were in bondage to the Roman Govern
ment. WOrse than all, they were subject to
the Evil One-siayes Of Satan.
They were correct in their claims as 20 de-
scent from Abraham. Christ admitted so much
(Y. BAL Without abiding historically TO the
facts they had been in bondage to Pharaoh
and others, Christ shows them they were ia a
worse slavery in comparison with which mere
physical or governmental bondage was as
nothing, and SO not to be mentioned at the
same time. As sinners they were slaves, and
as slaves they had not liberties which belong
only TO sons. They should become sons
o.: 12.) Christ as the Son of God had power
to elevate by adoption slaves into the family
of God. 1t is said that sometimes Grecian heirs
by primogeniture divided their estates among
the rest of the children Of the family, and thus
made them all equally possessors. A Roman
son was allowed at the decease of his father to
free slaves of the family a. many as no wished.
Dean Stanley wrote: Thou hast double
nature. Choose between the worse and the
better that is within thee. Thou hast il in
thy power TO become tho slave Of passion, the
slave of luxury, the slave Of sensual power, the
slave OF corruption. Thou hast it in thy power
TO become the free master Of myself to become
the everlasting benefactoF of thy country and
the uniailing champion of thy God"
Samuel Smiles said: "The greatest slave Is
not he who is ruled by desp0t. but he who is
in the thrall Of his own moral ignorance, self
ishness and vice."
Cicero says: 1.-THE minds Of those who have
given themselves up to sensual delights, and
have made themselves, so to speak, their SER
vitors, and driven by lusts that subserYe pleas
uTes, have outraged the laws of God and men,"
