Gods gracious invitation. the theme OF
this weeks lesson, has been selected from
the Gospel Of Isaiah" In former studies
II has been pointed out how the great
prophet revealed the qualities OF states
man In the advice that he gave to Heze-
k,ah concerning the reformation and pro-
lection of the state. He stands on the
Hottest peak of prophecy when he presents
the giories of the plans of redemption In
connection with the Messianic reign He
a,proaches in these messages the gospel
of John and the teachings OF the New
,res,a,nent in his prophecy. In fact his
teachings concerning the fullness and Tree
ness OF the new covenant have the three
marks OF the gospel-propitation, PARDON
and purity <.,,,
dations for the prophets message OF COM
fort to sinful men In the nfty-'hird chap
ter there is wonderful setting forth OF
the coming Of the Messiah as sunerhs
substitute for sinners; pouring out ms
soul unto death. being numbered with the
transgressors; bearing the sins OF many
and making intercession Tor tne trans
gressors" In the ffty-fourth chap
Ter he gives a picture of the future glory
Of zion. when the people are reunited In
Jehovah in an everlasting covenant, which
the prophet ca, calls we h fp tbis Weeks
lesson there is extended an invitation Tor
ali men to enjoy the privileges of re-
demption that the Messiah has opened to
both lew and Gentle. The spirit OF the
Lord Jesus is seen in the provision out
lined by the prophet for the poor to en-
foy the comfort and consolation OF the

without money and without price are
strange terms to those who are fanil-
lar with oriental methods Of barter and
the greedy tradesmer demands in the
hour of distress for the necessities OF
life. Food profteering is nothing new.
for in the orient eXorbitant charges
are frequently made for the privilege
of access to well that has never been
known TO have gone dry. The prophet
offers water. wine. milk and bread to
all classes free OF cost TO them.
The promises of God Offering necessi-
ties Of life without cost reveals the
divine method of reaching the spiritual
through the physical life. There are
certain points where IT is possible for
humanity to come into knowledge of
God and those points touch our need

marvellous beauty. At first she did
not observe him, but finally she
glanced in his direction.
There was something about him
that caused her to unbend from her

She fell quickly into his vein Of
