~V HE Resurrection, the greatest
object lesson of the ages, is the
pivot on which the whole world
is turning from darkness to
light. No matter what belief
anyone may have, his life has been af-
fected in some way by the accounts
given by Matthew, Mark, Luke and
John of the Crucifixion; the placing in
the tomb of the body of Jesus and his
appearance after period OF seeming
death. The clear belief of the dis
ciples, their teachings and reported
healings; even the contentious, strife
and darkness, which lasted for TINA,
and then the steady advance of the
light of Christianity down the centur-
ries, has led to study and thought and
achievements which have advanced
the civilization of the world. Jesus
resurrection is also our resurrection
as it was the resurrection Of the dis
ciples, who, after his appearing, knew
the things which before they had ia
ken on faith The worlds resurrec-
ton is going on. Christianity, with
the resurrection as it's most vital point
has been the motive power that has
swayed empires.
It's study has been the means of adj
vancing the education of the world.
Thoughts inspired by it are expressed
in art, music, literature; and thoughts
inspired by it have opened mems
minds to inventions that have revolu-
tionized mortal life. The worlds resur-
rection is going on! 1t has opened
the darkest continents to commerce;
has been the cause of the discovery OF
new countries; and is lifting the whole
world to a higher understanding and
appreciation Of life-from material
sense to the highest spiritual sense
Each year with the recurrence of
Easter men are outgrowing the grave
more and more and are understanding
more fully the great truth embodied
In Christs promise that whatsoever
liveth and believeth in me shall never
die" Jesus had challenged the mortal
claim of death three times before he
proved coDclusively the spiritual su-
premacy of life by his resurrection
from WHAT SeenoQ 10 DC QedIu. flTSty
at the gates of the city of Main, when
the son of widow was being carried
out on a bier, he said to him: Young
man, say unto thee, arise;;" and he
whom they thought was dead "sat up,
and began to speak"
Then when "all were weeping and
bewailing" over the death of the
twelve-year-old daughter of Jairus. a
ruler of the synagogue, Jesus said unto
them, Weep not; for she is not dead,
but sleepeth.' and they laughed him
to scorn." But he took her by the
hand; told her to arise; and "she rose
up Immediately"
Finally, he called Lazarus from the
tomb four days after he had been laid
away there as dead Lazarus and his
sisters, Martha and Mary, were very
dear friends of Jesus. He often Wis.,

places. Mary especially was dearly be-
loved by him. She had "sat at Jesus
feet, and heard his Words" and 1t
seems that even Jesus himself thought
that she understood the full meaning
of his teachings. So when Lazarus
was sick his sisters sent word to
Jesus, saying, Lord, behold, he whom
thou lowest Is sick" But when Jesus
heard this 'he abode two days still in
the same place where he was" Then
he said to his disciples, Our friend
Lazarus sleepeth; but go that l may
wake him out of Sleep" Then said
his disciples, Lord, if he sleepeth he
shall do WE'LL" Howbeit Jesus spake
of his death; but they thought that he
had spoken of taking of rest in sleep
Then said Jesus unto them plainly.
Lazarus is dead. And | am glad for
your sakes that was not there, to the
intent We may believe; nevertheless,
let US go unto him"
When Jesus and his disciples ar

rived at Lazarus nome and Mary me,
him, "she fell down at his feet, saying
unto him, Lord, II thou hadst been
here, my brother had not died."
When Jesus therefore saw her weep

came with her, he groaned in spirit
and was troubled, and said, Where
have We laid him. They said unto
him, Lord, come and see.'
Jesus wept."
He had thought that Mary surely
would understand what ne meant
when he said that Lazarus sleepeth."
That she would understand that Laza-
rus was not dead; that death had no
power over him. He wept because he
saw that even Mary did not yet under
stand the full meaning OF his teach.
ings.
Jesus then showed by his own resur-
rection that death and the grave had
no power over him and made clear
his statement that "whosoever liveth
and believeth in me shall never die"
AS the stone was rolled away from
the sepulcher, so, by Jesus resurrec-
ton, the stone which had kept out
hope, faith and knowledge of the Eter-
nal Life is rolled away from the
hearts of men. The veil of the tenn
pie was torn when Jesus was crucified
as symbol that nothing more was 10

let in to clear up the mysticisms of
old beliefs.
Brighter and brighter the light Of
love is shining as man becomes more
and more at one with God.
AS the Resurrection" of man goes
on the truth of Pauls statement that
''in him we live and move, and have
our being" becomes clearer. Men soar
in aeroplanes to reach the sky and
build skyscrapers hundreds of feet
above the street, but they do not now
attempt to thus reach heaven or to see
the mysteries of God. The old ma
teriality of Babylon is fast disappear

more that we must reach Cod, the Su.
preme Being, spiritually and not with
towers that pierce the sky. Paul.
