The scene of today's lesson is in
day is Tuesday, the last day of Jesus
public teaching. The multitudes were
eager to hear him, but the authorities
were determined to put him to death.
The parable of the vineyard tells
how God sought again and again to
gain the allegiance and the love of the
people whom he nurtured and cared
for as a father for his children. He
had sent his ministering prophets, but
the people had turned their backs on
them; despised his word until the di-
vine wrath was kindled and the Ro-
mans captured the city, destroyed the
Temple and scattered Israel among the
nations.
Then Jesus changed the figure and
represented himself as the stone which
the builders rejected, but which be-
came the chief corner stone.
Apparently the Master spent a large
part of that last Tuesday facing the
crafty conspirators who were making
desperate efforts to entangle him in his
talk. Among the first was a commit
tee of Pharisees and Herodians who
imagined that they could put him off
his guard by fiattery, and by pretending
to be sincere inquirers after the truth.
Master" they said, 1--WE know that you
are not influenced by the fear of man
in your teaching, but teach only that
which is true concerning the things Of
God. Do you think it is right for
Jews to pay tribute to Caesar?" 1t
was a question which many an honest
man had asked since the day that Jul
das the Galilean went through the
country preaching that as Jehovah was
the only ruler of the Jews it was a sin
to pay tribute to a foreign King. Jesus
saw the point at once and said, "Why
do you try me?" Bring me a penny.
Someone (probably a Hereditary for a
Pharisee would not carry Roman mon
ey, handed him a penny. Whose i'm
age and name is this?" he asked, and
when he was told that it was Caesars,
he handed the penny back with the
simple remark, Render unto Caesar
the things that are Caesars and unto
God the things that are Gods. The
answer so astonished them that they
could say nothing more, and they quiz

city slipped away through the crowd.
People nowadays who rail against all
government, and try to undermine all
authority, forget that they could not
go to bed at night and sleep in safety
were it not for the army and navy that
protect our country from enemies with
out and the Secret Service from enc
mics within; the officer of the govern
ment who patrols their street; the SER
wants of the city who watch and
spring at the first alarm to defend
them against fire; the sanitary officials
and pure food experts; the school ply
stefan; the water inspector; the in
spector of weights and measures, and
finally the moral restraints of Chris
ton public opinion and Sunday-school
teaching. Whose image and inscrip-
ton" are on the benefits you enjoy?
The conspirtors made another trial.
A committee of Sadducees was sent to
him with a question which, it was
hoped, would force him into a ridicu-
lous attitude before the people. He
believed in the resurrection; the Sad
ducees did not. "How about this
case?" they asked. And they told him
of a woman who had seven husbands
in her life time, and asked whose wife
she would be in the future life. you
do not know the scriptures, answered
Jesus, nor do you have any concep-
ton of the power of Cod. And he
told them that how in the life to come
there would be nc marriage in the
material sense, for the simple reason
that the life beyond the grave was not
material or physical, but spiritual.
And he went on to say that touching
| the question of the resurrection of the
! dead, about which they insisted the
scriptures were silent. God repeatedly
declares in the book of Moses that he
is the God of Abraham and Isaac and
| Jacob, and God, he would remind them
is not the God of the dead but of the
living.
Then came a Scribe. Matthew says
he was a Pharisee and a lawyer, that
is one learned in the ecclesiastical law,
corresponding to our Doctor of Divini-
ty.
According to Matthew the mans pur-
pose was to tempt Christ, but from
Marks gospel we infer hat his atti-

They never Come Baek-Don't
They?
Just Keep your Lamps Lit and
see how they Do Come Back.
And Here's your Sermon:
YOU can do the same thing.
Maybe you think the Old Booze
has got you So Far Gone that you
Can't Get Away From 1t. Give it
The Hoot, and Quit. This Stuff
about Knuckling Down to the Thing
you have been Used to Being
Licked By doesn't Mean Anything.
The Next Time Out you may Knock
it Dead with a Haymaker.
So it goes with Playing the
Ponies, with Rocketing Around the
Red Lights, with Cussing, Lying,
with Trying to Get Something for
Nothing-whether you are an Ordi-
nary Thief or a High Glass CRATER.
There is No Habit that's Got You.
You're a Big, Outstanding Fellow, if
you Look at Yourself Right. YOU
are the Gink that is going to say
Which Way you are Heading. And
if you want to Head Right, there
is Nobody big enough to Tell You
you have got to go the Other Way!
You can Lick the Guy-or the Habit
that Says Otherwise.
So, as the British Boys In the
Trenches say:
"CheerOh."
Can the Wrong Stuff you've got
under your belt; Can the Feeling
that Something or Somebody may
have the Indian Sign on You;-
and above all, go out and Kan the
Kaiser and His Kultur! (2ei

tude was far more open to truth than
that of the others. He had probably
been influenced by Jesus personality
and teaching.
Christ's answer to his question de-
clared the commandment first in i'm
portance was to love God, and the sec
ond was to love ones neighbor. Nc
more comprehensive statement of the
law of duty was ever made. 1t showed
that the same principles that are in
volved in patriotism and good citizen
ship are involved in religion. The
Kingdom of God stands for the highest
citizenship and the religion of Christ
stands for the highest patriotism.
There is not one love with which
you love God and another with which
you love man. Love is one. Leigh
Hunt beautifully illustrates this in his
poem:
"Abou ben Adhem (may his tribe in
crease)
Awoke one night from a deep dream
of peace,
And saw within the moonlight in his
room,
Making it rich and like a lily in
bloom,
An angel writing in a book of gold.
Exceeding peace had made Ben Ad-
hem bold,
And to the presence in the room he
said,
What writest thou?' The angel rails
ed its head
And with a look made all of sweet &C.
cord,
Answered, The names of those who
love the Lord.
And is mine one?' said Abou. Nay,
not So"
Replied the angel. Abou spoke more
low,
But cheerily still, and said, I pray
thee then,
Write me as one who loves his fellow
men.
The angel wrote and vanished. The
next night
1t came again with a great Weakening
light,
And showed the names whom love of
God had blessed,
And To- Ben Adhem's name led all
the rest"
In striking contrast to the hypocrisy
of the Pharisees stands out the charm
ing story of the poor widows generous
gift. Others gave of their abundance.
She gave of her penury. In Gods
sight a gift is measured by the heart
motive and not by its amount. The
absolute poverty of the widow render
ed her gift a sacrifice and an act of
heroic faith. The standard indicated
and approved was not how much was
given, but from how much was it CIV
