Christs manliness always attracts

sadly because following him seems

You will tell me that calmness
of the Imagination does not depend
on ourselves. Pardon me, it de-
pends very much on ourselves. When
we cut off all the uneasy thoughts
In which the will has a share, we
greatly diminish those which are in
voluntary. God will watch over your
Imagination If you do not keep up
the disturbance by your scrupulous
reflections.
Abide in peace. Do not listen to
your imagination, which is too lively
and too full of fancies. This eX-
cessive activity consumes your body,
and dries up your inward life. You
are preying upon yourself uselessly.
1t is merely your restlessness which
hinders peace and interior grace.
How can you expect God to speak
in that gentle and inward voice which
melts the soul, when you are max
ing so much voice with your rapid
reflections Be silent. and God will
speak again.-Fenelon.

the Spirit and over-ruling all mate
rial life, Jesus had purpose.
Therefore He pictured the new birth
to men as the entrance requirement
for the Heavenly Kingdom and the
joys of eternal life with God. Jesus
had a purpose to show men God, sin,
redemption, the kingdom. Having
deep and fixed purpose, He taught
convincingly from a convicted life.
In the last place, Jesus taught as
one having authority. Mark tells us
that at the synagogue at Capernaum
the Jews we're astonished at the
teaching of Jesus-that is to say,
they we're almost struck dumb. Con-
trary to the scribes, Jesus talked with
authority. Speaking from his own
intimate, personal knowledge of the
truth and power of His message Jesus
asked the aid and witness of no man
to prove His points. The scribes
cited precedent as justification for
their legalism. Jesus spoke truth
under the influence of the Spirit of
God. The scribes rested their case
on external authorities; Jesus had
the witness of the Spirit of His own
life. The Pharisees made tradition
the test Christ made the Spirit. 1t
Is no wonder that they were aston
ished The gulf is wide between the
sanctions of tradition and the sane
ton of the Spirit Traditions choke
the truth: the Spirit giveth life. The
hope and strength of worn-out the
ories is tradition and 1t is the chief
enemy of the Spirit. No man of sense
will, of course, break with the past
merely through perverseness. On
the other hand. no one should allow
the fallacies of the past to deaden a
higher life new. To the past all
honor; for the present the things of
to-day, the hopes and visions of to-
morrow.
The application is easy. Our pro-
mitigation of the truth should be
simple. The teachings of Jesus
should be applied searchingly to all
life in this day. Our method of pre-
sentation should be realistic, not abb
struse, that men may feel and grasp
and hold the truth. There ought to
be no lack of purpose in our teach
ing of the way unto eternal life. We
tell men, or we should, the Gospel
story not to amuse them, but to save
their immortal souls And lastly,
and most important of all, we must
teach with authority-not dogmat-
lcally or narrowly-but with the
sureness that comes from spiritual
experience.
