as we read, strangers, foreigners. out
casts-not in covenant relationship
with the -Ephesians PIP.
Although the Christian Church is
peculiarly in relationship with God.
and in a much closer relationship than
that of the Jewish Law. nevertheless
we must not suppose that all dreams
which even consecrated Christians
may have, are to be regarded rs II
spired. Very evidently the majority of
our dreams are merely wanderings of
our mind because we are not soundly
asleep For God to make fewer COM
munications with Spiritual Israel by
dreams would not signify a lesser in
terest in their affairs. but rather that
He had otherwise provided for them.
for their guidance-in the Bible. Ad-
ditionally, we learn that He wishes us
TO walk by faith and not by sight;
and to direct us continually by dreams
would be to interfere with this walk
ing by faith.
st. Paul gives us the key to the mat
ter saying that the Word of God is
sufficient, that the man of God may
unto every good work" e Timothy
3:16, 10 But there is nothing to
hinder God from using a dream as A
means of instructing His spiritual
children If that should seem at any
time to be the appropriate course.
Many Of the Lords people have had
more or less experience with such
profitable dreams, which seemed to
give them the needed instruction or
suggestion Nevertheless, there is but
one sure way of receiving dreams; !;
namely. to interpret them only in full
accord with the Scriptures The Apos-
! tie suggests that If an angel should
proclaim to us any other Gospel than
this. it should be rejected; and SINH
/ larly, II a dream should suggest any
other Gospel, it should be rejected.
| The Divine Word is to be the great
/ talisman. test, standard, for every
thing for the Christian.
SOIOmOn's Wise Choice.
In Solomons dream the Lord ap-
peared to him. saying, ASK what /
shall give thee" SO God is asking OF
all who would become His children.
He desires to do them good. but He
wishes them to realize their needs and
| to make requests accordingly. The
Apostle suggests something along this
/ line, saying. IF any man (Christian)
/ lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who
| giveth literally. James 1:5-7.

shows us a beautiful simplicity OF

come to the throne. He recounted
Gods mercy to his father ,avid and
declared that this was in proportion
as King David had walked faithfully
with God in righteousness of heart.
He expressed appreciation of the fact
that God had brought even him TO the
throne because of Divine appreciation
OF his father David. Then he recount
ed TO God his own littleness, weakness
and insufficiency for the great posi-
ton. Touchingly he declared, Il am
but a little child" This reminds IS
OF the Apostles words, when I am
weak, then am | strong" This was
really the strength Of Solomons chat
acter; namely. that he was meek,
was teachable, like little child-not
boastful or self-conflden,. not blind
to the privileges and obligations Of
his work
Because of the responsibilities of
the kingdom, for which he felt himself
so incompetent, Solomon prayed,
Give therefore Thy servant an un-
derstanding heart to Judge Thy people
Ito administer justice to them), that
they may discern between good and
bad: for who is able to Judge this
Thy so great a people?'
Is it any wonder that we read
further that in the dream the Lord
manifested His good pleasure at this
request? And God said unto him,
Because thou hast asked this thing,
and hast not asked for thyself long
life: neither hast asked riches for
thyself, nor hast asked the life OF
thine enemies; but hast asked for thy
self understanding to discern judg-
ment (iusticeI; therefore | have done
according to thy words: 10, l have
given thee a wise and an understand
ing heart, so that there was none
like thee before thee. neither after
thee shall any arise like unto thee
| And have also given thee that which
thou hast not asked, both riches and
honors: so that there shall not be any
among the kings like unto thee all
thy days"
"I knelt before Thy gracious Throne
And asked for peace with suppliani
knee;
And peace was given: not peace alone
But love, and JOY, and ecstasy"
Then Solomon awoke and found
! that IL was but a dream He returned
to Jerusalem, and there through the
agency of the high priest made vari-
Gus additional sacrifices to the Lord
Thus was his reign reverently and
wisely inaugurated; and the founda-
tion was laid for his personal pros.
| perity and that of the nation. which
as Gods representative he both ruled
! and served.
