Demanding a Sign.

1--WE would see Il sign from Thee"
This demand, uttered at such a time,
must have contained sheer. What were
the mighty works which they had just
witnessed but signs? What were the
words to which they had listened? 1t is
a popularity of wicked men that they
are sign seekers. Doubtless these men
believed that they might be convinced
by q sign. So thought Dives. IF one
went unto them from the dead they
will repent" Duke 1890. But Christ
knew better He said IF they hear
not Moses and the prophets neither will
they be persuaded. though one rose from
the dead" The path OF duty is always
plain. and ever safety lies along that path.
And yet Christ did give them a sign.
Jonah, in the whales stomach. was a
sign Of His death and resurrection. And
the resurrection of Christ is the crown
ing proof of His deity. This was the
miracle of miracles. Upon its truth the
apostles boldly staked the whole gospel
scheme. To it the Christian points to-
day with joy and pride. 1t is demon
stration of the truth of every claim. and
1t is a pledge of the fulfillment of every
prophecy. Because He lives we shall
live also. The suggestion of Jonah sug-
gested further proof. The men Of
Jonah. but He was greater than Jonah.
And SO the queen of the south would
condemn Them She came from afar to
hear the wisdom of Solomon, but a
greater than Solomon was there. The les
son is this: Our responsibility is graded by
our opportunities. If this be SO, what is
ours?

Sin Against Holy Ghost.

The fact that there is a sin that may
not be forgiven is startling. 1t is GER
tainly not strange that through the GEN.
turtles men have been asking: What is
this SIM and "am 1 in danger of COM
hitting it?" The statement and warning
of our Lord clearly prove two things:
they prove that this sin may be commit
ted, and that there are some OF our race
who will be excluded from heaven for
ever. But what is it? This warning Of
Jesus may not be separated from the in
cident Of which it forms a part. The
meaning is found in the conduct of these
Pharisees. Jesus had performed nota-
BILE miracle. He was the Goldman 1. e. He
was Gods representative upon earth:
All His works were wrought through and
by the Holy Spirit The act of healing.
which they had just witnessed. was the
Spirits work. And it was this work
which they had just witnessed which they
declared had been done through the
power of Satan.
But why is this sin objectionable? Is
it because the sin is SO heinous that God
is unwilling to forgive it? No, thousand
times, no. There is no sin that God does
not yearn to forgive. But the condition
of forgiveness is penitence. There must
be confession of sin, accompanied by a
goodly sorrow for it. and a desire to be
delivered from it. Without this there can
be no forgiveness, neither in this world,
neither In the WOriu 10 COME but tHlS
is precisely what the man who charges
the work of the Holy Spirit to Satan
cannot do. 1t is possible for man to
become SO perverse of spirit, SO indurat-
ed of heart that repentance is impossible.
This is possibly the most terrible, the
most awful truth that has ever fallen
upon the ears of man. And the worst
fact concerning 1t is that the man who
has committed it is both unconscious Of
it and Indifferent concerning it. So long

been omitted from the lesson. But they
belong to- it and should be studied with
it. The thirty-third verse teaches the
necessity of a correct heart If we would
have correct life. The wall of the
thirty-fourth verse is the expression of
Christs sorrow for men who had gone
perilously near to the committing of the
sin.

Christ's Vindication.

1t seems that the charge was not open
ly made. Moodily and angrily they had
watched the Master. 1t was like the vol
cano before an, eruption. Jesus knew
their thoughts. He determined to leave
them without excuse. There are two
things In this REPUTATION that
should deeply impress us. There is
first the refutation itself, and then
it is the spirit in which the refutation
is given. The vindication is ananswer-
able, and the spirit in which it is couch
ed Is divine. In all this He is giving an
example to. His church - -

divided against himself. it is absurd. To
suppose that Satan was divided against
himselE that. he was engaged in tearing
down his own Kingdom, bore upon its
TACT, Its own refutation.
The second argument was what is called
IAN appeal to the man." There were
among the Jews those who were called
exOrcists. They professed to cast out
devils. Whether the Jews themselves be-
power is not known. But the vast differ
ence between. them and Christ was OBJ
v1ous to all. The men and women upon
whom these professionals tried their skill
were no better after their efforts than be-
fore. But the cures and healings of Jesus
we're unquestioned. Those who came to
HIM were changed in life. Physically,
mentally and spiritually they were made
whole. His question then to the Jews was
crushing: by whom do your children
cast them out?" Logically, there could
be but one conclusion. The works were
wrought by the finger Of God. But if SO,
then, 1.-THE kingdom Of God had come unto
them" And SO Christ was forcing upon
them the evidence Of their SIM. But no
evidence can convince man against his
will.
Another proof is found in the case of
the strong man unbound. Before the
kingdom of Satan can be spoiled. Satan
must be bound. He will resist all en-
another spoil his house. Satan Is strong;
In the case of the demoniac he has taken

Prince of Demons.

Beelzebub, In the Jewish popular think
ing Of that time, was the prince of de-
mons. the lord Of the neither world. This
was their only resort. The miracles could
not be denied. They were numerous, and
they were beyond the power of man. If
they were not wrought by the power of
God, they must have been wrought by
the power of Satan. This was the only
alternative, and they boldly accepted it.
This was not the first time that the
charge was made, (9:3D, but the charge,
once made, 1t was eagerly seized as an
all SUFFICIENT explanation. With this theory
all miracles could be explained. 1t is
true that the explanation was unreason-
able and self destructive. But infidelity
Is always unreasonable. In refusing to
believe some truths that are difficult the
skeptic is driven to accept errors that
are a thousand fold more so.

The Blind and Dumb Healed.

Diseased conditions Of. men were not
strange with the Jews of that day. as
they. are not with us. But there was
now brought to Christ blind and dumb
man whose condition. was !, caused by
demoniacaI possession. Christ healed him.
The work was done instantly, and per.
fectly. Immediately the man saw and
spoke. There are times when the COM
mon people assume their God-given pre-
negatives. =
The evidence is so clear that they even
dare to differ from their recognized teach
ers. This was such a time. The people
were ready to admit the claims Of Christ.
They were waiting for their rulers to take
the initiative. ,AIn such instances 1t not
infrequently happens that theainstinots
of the ignorant are truer than the reason
ings Of the wise.f If we will read the his
tory of the church think that it will be
found that this has been true In all ages.
God always has people: His people are
those who accept and trust Him. And
this is easier for the humble and un-
learned than for the learned and great.
And this fact has been made one OF the
stock arguments against religion. 1t was
so with the Jews In the time OF Christ
"This people who knoweth not the law
are cursed" John. 7:49). And men ask
today: rs 1t not strange that the church
is composed. to a large extent, OF the poor
and igrlorant?" No, it is not strange.
But let us pause to grasp the full mean
ing Of this statement. It does not mean
that Christianity. for instance. is not IN
harmony with the highest reason It
certainly is not true that when men be-
gin to think and to reason upon the SUBJ
ject they discover Its claims to be false.
II 1t is true that not many great. not
many wise after the flesh become the dis
ciples of Christ. 1t Is also true that for
1900 years the profoundest scholars. the
greatest thinkers. the most erudite phi
losophers OF the world have bowed most
humbly at the feet of Christ. rejoicing
that they were counted worthy to be
called His disciples.
Where. then, Is the dimculty? 1t is
here The old Scribes and Pharisees had
formed their opinions of the coming Mes
siah. He was to be a man of war He
was to come In regal splendor. and He
was to overturn the earthly Kingdoms
Of the world. and He was to enthrone
himself upon their ruins. To acknowl-
edge Christ as the Messiah would be to
unlearn the past and to confess that their
Interpretation Of the Scriptures had been
a gross blunder. They were doing what
the author of the Proverbs, $50, centuries
ago had condemned They were leaning
upon their own understanding. And this
is now and has been through the ages
the difficulty with the wise. Because
Christianity does not square with their
preconceived opinions it is rejected.
This lesson shows us to what depths
of iniquity these Pharssees were led by
their unscrptural theories.
