be proven to be an impostor.

~ ptONNh W w Gil LII JoDlois
If there is one fact which Jesus
emphasized more than another,
it is that he was the son of God.
When on trial under oath, he
confessed that he was the son of
God, and his judges understood
this confession in the same sense,
and do you suppose that rather
than explain that he meant to
claim that he was only man that
he would have suffered himself to
be condemned and crucified.
If he was a mere man, all the
miracles which he did were only
tricks, and any one claiming
that Jesus was a mere man
makes him trickster and a de-
clever, and they also make the
apostles base imposters, because
they wrote what they knew was
false, base because they did this
with a wicked purpose to deceive.
Any one who tries, can see how
uneriable such teaching is, for
the following reasons:
l. The moral and religious
tone of their teaching forbid j..
?. Their consecrated lives for
bid it.
3. A deceiptful person could
not have made such a moral re-
novation in society,
4. What motive could have
prompted them.
5. Would they have suffered
martyrdom to substantiate lie.
There is no ground for the
hypothesis of honest deception,
tor this woul1 also make Christ
base deceiver and The apostles
simpletons. If the account they
give is not ture they know it, for
they state that they saw the
miricles and took part in many OF
the events which they state and
a large portion of the gospel is
what Jesus did and taught. II
is difficult to see how the evil
dences of genuiuess could have
been strengthened in number OF
kind, or how the lives and char,
acters of the sacred writers could
have been more worthy of conf.
dence, for they backed up their
claim by the life they lived.
Here are some of the state
ments Jesus made concerning
himself, and no other man ever
made such claims, He says:
Before Abraham was | am.
"All authority in Heaven auc
in earth is given to me-"
"All power is given unto m,

Who 10 Jesus?

That there was a Jesus of Zaz-
areth, and that he lived in the
time ascribed to him and that he
is the author of the Christian re-
ligion with its revelations, moral
principles and purity is not con-
tradicted BY any one who has
honestly investigated the subject.
But that he is the Christ, the on
ly begotten son of God as taught
in the Holy Scriptures is denied
by some, and the following err
roneous doctrine is being taught
here III our community: That
Jesus was the natural son of
Joseph and Furthermore that the
God we worship is an immoral
God if the account of his birth
as given by the gospel writer's is
correct. We have more reason
to call loving mother immoral;
who bathes her infant son and
cares for him as only a mother
can, than they have to call God
immoral, because in the plan of
human redemption he saw fit
that his only begotten son should
be made of women. The first
thing needed in mans redemp-
ton was the revelation of Jesus
the Christ as the representative
of God. And the God who
touched insenate matter and this
world was brought into existence,
who took some of the dust of his
own world and fashioned man in
his own immage Chad a right to
arrange matter as he pleased
and he saw fit that his only be-
gotten son should be made oil
woman.
This is Gods world. 1.-THE
earth is the Lords and the full
ness thereof" 1t is Gods world
by right of creation, by right oil
power and by right of the divine
purpose which he made complete
through his son. Mary under.
stood this fact and when the
angel made the announcement tc
her, which was more beautiful,
than any marriage ceremony
she accepted the divine fiat as q
great blessing bestowed on hel
from her creator to whom she be
longed. Gods word declare;
that the Holy Ghost should bC

that he should be born of a vir,
gin. What dreadful thing 70
puny man to insult the AL
mighty God by charging hin
with such shameful, ignominious
disgraceful infamy as callins
him an immoral God because h
used this means to reveal himsel
to the world. Beware of sucl
sop history, for this is SHINING
against the Holy Ghost, attribut
ing that which is of the Hol
Ghost to evil influences, and h
certainly does so who says Jesu
was Joseph's natural son, and n
amount of hypocritical courtes
could prevent the degredatio
which would accompany such a
assertion. 1t would be useless

the platform of the car and tried to
open the gate, which had a patent

nearly always had trouble in opening.
After turning the handle every way

back to let some one else try it. A
