BY WILLIAM t. ELLIS.


Art has always laid its best work
at the feet of Jesus. Music has scared
to it's sublimest heights when attuned
to that name. Literature for nearly
twenty centuries has concerned itself
with him; and the attributes to his
beauty and excellence are constantly
multiplying. History has been shaped
about his feet. None the less. it is
not as the Hero of History. the Desire
of Literature. the Theme of Music or
Subject of Art that Jesus gets his
greatest glory. While it is true that
he has laid his sovereign hand upon
all the arts and sciences, yet it is as
the Redeemer of the broken, contrite
and sin stained hearts of humanity
that Christ is best beloved on earth
and in heaven. The world needs
heroes, it is true; but far more does
it need a Savior. No beautiful trib-
utes to the character and philosophy of
Jesus can take the place of simple,
Savior from sin.
The Buddhist does good works in or
der to be saved; the Christian does
good works because he has been saved.
They who praise Jesus, while deny
ing him saving power, would glorify
him while they cruelty him. Man
kind is not interested in Jesus merely
as a beautiful historical character. it
loves him, and follows him. because
he alone offers salvation from the ter
rible fact of sin.
1t is a firm foundation on which the
Christian has built his faith. There is
naught in heaven or on earth so stable
as the Rock on which rests the hope
of the believer. For our trust is in
God, the great and supreme Lord,
whose word cannot fail and whose
goodness is from everlasting to ever
lasting.
When we walk with Christ all of
life's paths are ways of pleasantness
and peace.
Christ came as a conqueror. Against
the gates of death. which had prevail
rior, and forever. vanquished them.
The old enemy, death, whose very
name has been for ages the dread of
all men, has been subdued by Christ.
To effect this victory was part of his
mission on earth. and in the great
conquest he has made we share. Christ
| overcame death itself so that the fear
of death might no longer disturb his
brethren.
Gods best manifestation of himself
is Jesus Christ. It is impossible for
| God to reveal himself to the world
more fully than he has done in the
life of his Son. The purpose Of Christ's
coming to earth was to show US the
| Father.
Someone has said that Christ has
] declared himself to be the 1T am"
| and has left blank that may be filled
in by any word that expresses the full
| 1llment of a human need. He came
to be all things to us. He is in a deep,
| true sense, the light of the world. He
is the worlds life and its salvation.
In him is peace. power and JOY. He is
"all in ALL"
The lifting up of Christ lifts up the
world. The elevation of humanity de-
ponds upon the exaltation of the cross.
| Christianity alone satisfies. No 9TH
| er religion does. Peace on earth is
| impossible to all except the Christian.
J Every other religious system leaves

~ err, have been grievouSly
misunderstood. The teach
ing of our Protestant child
hood was to the effect that
only the sanity elect would go to
heaven and that others would not only
lose heaven, but gain an eternal life
in torment. Thus our text was I'M
derstood to portray what practically
the whole world of mankind would be
compelled to endure. This hell was
pictured to our childhood minds from
outside the Bible as heated to white
heat. If we expressed wonder or sur
prise that any human creature could
endure such conditions so long the an
swer was that God would exercise his
omnipotent power to make us fire.
proof and pain sensitive. Some theo-
logians of the Thomas a Kempis school
of thought went so far as to picture
the poor creatures in their sufferings
and to show that the heat would form
a kind of an asbestos covering which
would shield them from a measure of
it's intensity. But those deluded theo-
logians proceeded to explain that these
outer coverings would crack and shell
off every little while, leaving the poor
victim freshly tender that his suffer-
ing might be the more intense.
OF course, these theologians of the
past had their difficulty in dealing with
the worms. They could imagine devils
who would oversee the torture as being
made immune to pain by the chief tor
turer, the Almighty God. But just how
to imagine the worms getting along in
SO great a heat and how they would in
any wise increase the torture of the
poor sufferers was to many a perplex-
ity. But patient thoughtfulness along
these cruel and devilish lines enabled
some to formulate the theory that the
worms would be fiery ones, living in
fire, delighting in fire-worms that
would bore through the incrustations
and add still further to the horrible
suffering of the world of mankind.

longings unmet, desires unsatisfled, and
so, in vain outreaching for the covet-
ed mystery, men who have not heard
of Christ erect affairs "to the unknown
God" There is nothing more pathetic
in the heather world than the vague
and deep yearning after something
which it does not possess. The need
can be satisfied only in Jesus Christ.
The lifting up of Christ means the
sure lifting up of mankind. Wherever
honor is given to him, there men rise
into something of his likeness. His
glory is inseparable from the good of
humanity.
AS the tree gets its life from the
soil and atmosphere, so the believer
should draw his life from Jesus Christ.
The trustworthiness of men is but
the reflection of Christ's gospel in their
life. We trust men every day, yet no
man is sure. 1t is possible for the
strongest man to fail. Jesus alone Is
infallible and unchanging. We may
yet rest confident upon him, for he
is the Rock of Ages.
Our strength is only in Christ's
strength.
