Interesting BIbl, study at Y. NJ. c. A.

Interesting Bible study at '. VI. C. \.
 A good sized group of men gathered for Bible study at the local Y. NJ. C. A. building Tuesday evening About an hour was spent in discussing the les sons to be derived from the story of the Good Samaritan" Among the many points emphasized were the following; that the lawyer who attempted to argue with Jesus met more than his mscth as every man does when he attempts to take issues with Divinity.
 When the lawyer asked Jesus how to inherit eternal life, Jesus instead of an- Ewering the question sai dto him, you ought to know about this, what is written in your law" and when the law yer quoted the great commandment of God and 10 man, Jesus said in essence, yes that IS correct. now go and do the thing you have quoted and you will in- herit eternal life. The lawyer was some what nonplusesd and as a last attempt Co better the Master in argument said "who is my neighbour Jesus still de- ttrmiued that the lawyer should answer his own question, told him the story of the Good Samaritan who ministered unto the wounded wayfarer, when the priest and levite had passed him by. ignoring llS ms ulfe need, anu when Jesus had finished the parable. He asked the direct question of the lawyer, which think ye neighbor to the unfortunate man?" There was nothing for the lawyer 10 say but the man who ministered 10 the wounded was his neiEhbor." and then Jesus told him 10 go and do likewise and the event vas closed.
 The men concluded that one of the great lessons to he derived from the study was that we must not limit our neiEhborliness to our set. our race our .olor or our friends, but that wherever there is need 10 which we can in any way minister. there we must consider it a privilege 10 be a neighbor, and that if. first of all we love God with all our hearts it will he perfectly natural for us 10 minister to those in need whether ihav he near or far.
