ToPIc.-DiTerent ways IF rejecting Christ
Mark ~, IA; A@h, ~, 4-6
That there are different ways Of r.
jecting Jesus Christ, the Son of God, as a
Saviour Is a matter both of observation
ana of testimony of the word Of God
In the references given above there AT
practically three reflections of Christ
and each one If different charact
The first is the Jews rejection of Christ
the second is Pilates, and the thirC
given in Heb. Vi, IS, may be called tn
backsider ; rejection of Christ. 1t is
to these that our study is directed.
The first rejection is that of the Jews.
The Jews as nation rejected Christ,
although many prominent people of the
kingdom accepted They rejected Christ
because Of their unbelief in Him, and
they did not believe in Christ because
He did not fulfill their idea of what the
Messiah ought to be. They had certain
exalted ideas as TO what the Saviour
should be, and when Christ came and
did not fulfill these they violently re-
jected Him. This is the rejection OF un-
belief. for the reason already stated.
There is much of the same kind Of re-
lection Of Christ and for the same rea
son in the world today. Christ does not
fulfill the ideas 6[ many as to what a
savior Of men should be. His plan of
salvation IS different from what they
expect, and they refuse to believe IN
e h.-,-
unbelief. The absurdity of such a rejec-
ton can he easily seen. as if God did
not know what Christ should have been
better than men,
The second rejection was by PLATE.
PLATE in q sense rejected Christ, hut
for different reason from that Of the
Jews In sense he did not disbelieye.
1t was purely moral cowardice that
caused him 10 reject Christ. He feared
the e9ect Of standing upfor Christ upon
the people. and therefore sided with the
populace against him. This Is also a
common way by which Christ Is reject
ed today Many feel like PLATE, that
they should champion his cause, but
they fear - do 1t. They are afraid 70
face the sneer and ridieule Of friends or
the opinion of the world.
The third kin, Of rejection is the
backsIider's rejection This is the sad
dest Of all, if it could actually he, fer
it would be the rejection Of enc who
had already believed i'll and tasted the
goodness Ct the Lord. Those who really
and truly do this we do not believe can
ever permanently reject Christ.
