Sunday. Dec. z. Topic Truths
That Jesus Taught" Matt. 5: 3-12;
John 81: rs. (consecration meeting).
A Plan for Meeting.
The following plan will produce
some very worth while results If you
will give 1t fair trial. Have either
one committee or the chairman of all
committees Jointly conduct the SER
vice. Use the pantomine idea. letting
each committee act out in a brief
period, some special features pertain
ing to their particular committee work
which they have accomplished during
the past year. or which they hope to
achieve in the year ahead. It would
= be we'll to bring into prominence the
7 departmental or committee plans for
; the ensuing six months or year.
To Think About.
What truth did Jesus teach amout
insincerity?
What did Jesus teach about Saliva
ton?
What did Jesus teach about ODE
dience?
Christianity is not merely the teach
ing of Jesus. There are some people
today who allege that it is. Jesus
Christ Is to them not A Saviour or a
risen Lord, but teacher who passed
away long ago, but whose teaching
survives and is the noblest moral and
religious teaching in the world. This
is not the view of the New Testament
Jesus is a teacher, but he was and is
vastly more-Redeemer, Saviour, Lord
and King. AS some one has put it,
Jesus came not to proclaim a message,
but that there might be a message to
proclaim.
And we who believe that Jesus was
much more than teacher ought to be
far ahead of those who think he was
only a teacher in our loving study
and earnest thought Of what he
taught. To us he was the divine
teacher, who spoke as never man
spake, who taught with authority, who
saw the whole truth and spoke the
things which he had seen with God
He knew God as no one else has
ever known him. Il come forth from
