emily Father; the Junior teacher, that
which teaches about God; the inter-
mediate teacher, the marks of q Chris
tan; the senior and adult teacher, the
fundamentals of faith and practice. AS
Illustrative Of the method for the
senior and adult, note the following:
Lesson |. God who was before all
things is the cause of all things. The
universe came into being by the will
and act Of the divine personality. Man
himself Is creation of God, not an
evolution. All things continue to be
by the preserving power of God. This
great being Is the Father Of all who be-
lieve on Jesus Christ. We should give
him our undivided affection and trust
him for feod and raiment.
Lesson II. Jesus, the Son of God
and Israel's Messiah, is the lamb who
bore our sins. Out of Gods love he
was given, and whatsoever believeth
on him shall not perish, but have ever
lasting life"
Lesson 10. Jesus Christ rose from
the dead. His resurrection guarantees:
/. The integrity of the Scriptures

Ing sacrifice Qlom, 4:25).
4. Life and immortality Of the be-
lever Il Cor. IS :20).
Lesson ~. On the day of Pentecost
the Holy Spirit was poured out upon
the disciples baptlzing them into the
one body Of which Christ is the head
The gift Of the Spirit peculiarly quail
flied the disciples to be his witnesses
Lesson v. God created man In his
likeness and image and placed him at
the head of creation.
Lesson vi. Through the fall of
Adam sin has passed. upon all men.
bringing death, physical and spiritual.
and sorrow in It's train.
Lesson VII. Lost men are saved alb
solutely by Gods grace. His grace
means his kindness toward men
through Jesus Christ
Lesson VIII. At the preaching Of
Jonah the people of Nineveh repented.
Because Of their repentance Gods
wrath was turned aside. Those who
repent of their sins and cry to God
for mercy through Jesus Christ shall
be saved.
Lesson TX. 1t is only through faith
that man can please God. Through
faith the mightest victories have been
wrought. The grand exemplar upon
whom faith can rest is Jesus ChSIst.
Lesson X. The grand incentive to
obedience is love to God. Calling Christ
Lord will not answer for dlsobedience
to his will. Hearing and doing his
teachings is building upon the solid
rock. Such building can never be de-
stroyed by flood or storm.
Lesson XII. The right motive In pray
ing is not to attract mans attention,
but to have fellowship with God. God
is pleased with persistency in prayer.
Lesson XII. The greatest of the
Holy Spirits gifts is love-the love
of God shed abroad In our hearts.
Love is not mere sentiment or emo
ton, but mighty dynamic which
transforms the life, expressing itself
In practical service to men. 1t abldes
