WHAT is SUPREME7

The Baptist Young Peoples Union
topic for June Ia is found in Luke
xviii, 1880. First place in the heart
ana life cannot be given to two OBJ
Jects. Only one thing can be supreme!
and all else will revolve around it.
This principle applies to God and gold.
1t is absolutely impossible to give the.
supreme place to both God and money.
Many would like to do it, and many
have tried to do it, but it cannot be.
done. OF this fact we have an illus
tration in the rich young ruler who
came to Christ. God and gold" had
been the desire of his life, but Christ
soon convinced him that 1t must be,
God or gold. Both cannot have the SUI
preme place. and all must therefore
choose between them. ..--.. &z5 flsfG
since 1t cannot be God and gold. but
must be God or gold, there should be
no question as to which should be gfy@e
en- the first place. Money is not to be
despised. It's possession is not to be
lightly esteemed. Honestly obtained
and properly used, it is and can be q
great blessing, but to make money SUI
preme and everything else secondary,
to make 1t the master and everything
else the servant, is a false and disas-.
trous basis of life.
God should always be given the first
place and everything else in life made
secondary to Him. Yet alas, how
many turn from God and worship the
golden calf, as the Isreaiftes IN the
wilderness! To how many money is
everything. although they may not.re-
al1ze it! 1t was SO with the rich young
ruler. Little did he imagine perhaps
what hold his riches had upon him
until Christ put him to the test. True.
he left Christ "sorrowfuI," and yet he
left Him. He had tried to keep the
commandments and had been unusu--
ally successful, and yet at one stroke
Christ had revealed the fact that deep
down in his heart the supreme place
was given not to God. but to gold.
And. although it is sorroWful. vet it is
true, that with thousands of peonIe
this is still the case today

PAUL AT ROME.

The International Sunday school les
son for June IA is found in Acts xviii
1924, 30, 81. The Golden text is Rom
ans /, 16.
The last lesson covered the voyage
from Caesarea to Melita, now Malta,
where today's lesson takes it up. The
enforced stay of three months on the
island of Melita gave Paul a chance
which he could never have had other
wise to preach the gospel, and his life
OF humble service for others must have
preached quite as much as his words
The word barbarians meant simply
people who did not speak Greek.
The first stop after leaving Malta
was at syracuse, the capital of Sicily.
After leaving Rhegium, the course lay
between the famous headland ScyIIa
and the whirlpool Charybdis. PuteoIi
was the principal port of Southern
Italy, and situated on the north side of
the bay of Naples. AS Paul entered the
harbor the volcano Vesuvius was in
plain sight and also the beautiful CITY
of Pompeit. The cordial treatment of
the travelling Christians by the breth-
rem at PuteOH, whom they had never
seen, shows US that Christianity had
now become great brotherhood. 1t

but was ''world-conquering religion"
The fact that the Roman Christians

Paul used the same line of argument
that he had used so often before and
which he heard first from the lips of
the martyr Stephen before his own

Shepherd cares both for the ninety
nine church members and for every
unchurched soul. He yearns over the
lost masses, the lost classes, and the
lost ''one;" rejoices over even one
