recalled him to the Masters service.
Both Judas and Peter by their acts of
betrayal and denial failed to stand up
for Christ in an hour when He needed
friends. Jesus appeared defeated, but
out of apparent defeat has come the
history of victorious church, guided
and directed by Peter, who was trans
formed by the Holy Spirit at Pente-
cost from being a denier of the Master
into a, courageous champion of the
gospel. In the days of darkness and
sorrow he had repented and he had
tasted the renewed joys of the faith
and friendship of the Son of Man.
Peters recovery presents a message of
hope to all who have denied their Lord.
Judas fate and his position as -the
traitor of Christ ought to serve as a
warning to all men, less they through
love of money should depart from the
Masters work.
