TEACHING POINTS.

INTRODUCTION. Our quarterly temper
ance lesson is to be inculcated ON the broad
basis of the Golden Rule. Temperance on
the basis of enlightened selfishness soon
becomes narrow and tiresope thought;
in this aspect temperance is spoken of con-
temptuously as lone idea.i' But when tenn
perance is practiced and commended on
the ground of fraternity, temperance being
the cause of Man, it is always fresh sub
ject.
a. V. 1928. THINK OF OTHERS. Grand,
unselfish Paul. What was idol -consecrat-
ed meat to him. Because he was enlight-
ened it was no different after it had been
offered to idols. But because all Christians
were not thus enlightened, and some were
very weak in the faith, and because in
diligence of his liberty might work harm
to them he would eat no idol consecrated
meat. He declared his liberty; then for
the sake of his fellowmen, he surrendered
it-And Paul did not stop here. He
surrendered his claim to support from the
church, and worked with his own hands,
that he might, by a living sacrifice, preach
the Gospel to the Geptiles. Further, ha
overcame all his prejudices against the
externals of all men, that he might over

He was Jew to the Jews Gentle to
the Gentiles, to the weak as weak; in ex-
ternals and unessentials he became all
things to all men.-His heroic self-abne-
cation is justified by its motive. He did
all for the Gospels sake. He served his
Master by serving men. He initiated the
universally of the Father. He regarded

CHRISTIAN SELF RESTRAINT.
Cor. TX; 1921.
Lesson xu.-March 81. 1897.
INTRODUCTION.

We pause in our study of the early
church history to bring our generalities
thus far gained toa personal application.
We ask: What does the acceptance OF
the Christian religion mean to each in
dividual soul that receives it? In other
words: What is the salvation which
the Gospel promises to the race OF man?
In our prescribed lesson passage
for TODAY. from a letter written by Saul
after he has been missionary OF the
Gospel twenty years. we find partial
answer to our question. The promise of
the GOSPEL to men is that it will enable
them to become righteous; and self-mas
terry is an essential thing in righteous
ness. The Gospel gives quickening and
direction to the best impulses, the hu-
name desires, the divine aspiration; 1t is
thereby of necessity prohibition OF the
meanness, the selfishness, the animalism
to which human nature in it's lower
ranges is prone. Concretely stated,
temperance is one of the vital require
ments and supreme victories OF the Cos
pel.-Because of the need of empha-
sizing temperance as trait OF Christian
character, we suspend our study OF the
fascinating old history. and in this lesson
bring the plain. underlying principles OF
the everlasting Gospel to present and
personal application.

every man as eternally dear to the Father
of all. A specific application. Victims
of alcohol are innumerable; their suffer-
ings are indescribabe Have we per-
sonal right to partake of intoxicants2 Even
if so Ga concession the stubborn facts
scarcely warranty, what can we do to help
the slaves of alcohol and the young who
are in danger of becoming slaves of the
drink habit? Can we stand aloof from the
cause of temperance, and resist it's appeal2
Are we willing, by our self-indulgence, to
take place outside the fighting temper
ance ranks Are we willing to incur the
danger of causing, by our example, others
to fall9 Can we extend no helping hand
to the drink-slaves who would rise out of
the gutter?-Who would not prefer one
hour of the generous life Paul lived, who
thought of others more than of himself,
than to live to Methusalehs age in hard,
narrow selfishness2
(2.) V. 1921 The ILLUSTRATIONS FROM
THE IsTHMIAN GAMES. Paul saw the moral
of the Grecian national games He saw
that the prizes to be won on the race
course and in the arena must be won in
manner similar to that in which the great
life-prizes are won.-No prize can be
won by an athlete except by fixed habits
of temperance. The PRIZES OF LIFE no less
require temperance in all things.
Paul aimed at no prize he did not
expect ultimately to share with all men.
He had need of personal temperance,
that he might not be himself castaway.
--Self-res traint for the sake of others
is an imperative duty; no less sublime
privilege
