mere can be no pentecost without a
spirit-filled life.
Lesson 2. Our blessed Lord or a
true disciple never gives to get rid
OF a fellow but to put him on his
feet; to fit him for helping himself
we often hear the remark, eve
can't do church work without
money" but Peter did a good stroke
OF business that no money could do /.
Ihis man had been born lame-a type
OF the sinner His friends did carry
him to the gate of the temple, but
dare not and could not take him in,
according to law. We can find loe
OF spiritual lame that we may carry
ito Jesus on the arms Of faith and
this must be done if they ever get to
him. If the church was alive as those
two men the church doors would sure
be blocked with the helpless.
Lesson 3, There is no lack OF
courage when filled with the spirit
A fellow can then stop breathing as
easy as he can stop telling the story
Of the redemption of his soul. See
Acts 4;2O.
Lesson 4 The title of this lesson
should read: The awful loss of rob
bling God and cheating themselves out
I of the great JOY of giving back to the
God OF Glory. See LIST Chron. 29:10
to IA.
Lesson 5.-The great privilege of
missionary work.
Lesson 6. The blessedness of our
unselfish life being embalmed in the
word Of God.
Lesson T. The joy of being raised
above all narrow sectarian lives.
Lesson S.-The value of a prayin. !,
church.
Lesson 8. Temperance The sa-
loon keepers thought Of temperance
differs somewhat to that Of our
Lord. The former thinks you do fine
so long as you can walk and keep out
of jail. But our Lords idea is total
absence from all that is evil; mod
crate use of all that is good.
Suppose that should ask you
DO you lie?' well, not much; am
very temperate about IT," And so on
as we might go.
In the word of God we see two Pc
tiers. The first one was like "a wave
of the sea- the second like rock.
Jesus gave him new nature and
then he got a new name (Rev. 3:12)
He did not have to 60 to heaven to
get it, but got it here in this life.
have told in these columns of S. H
Hadley of New York who was gut
ter drunkard; had fallen so many
times. At last in utter despair he
went to the city jail and had the
turnkey to lock him up. One evening
he said: "Now don't matter what
say or what l do. don't let me out.
Well, that night in that cell he was
so blessedly saved and sanctified and
then he also had new name and be-
came one of the greatest of workers
among all classes of people. And ev'
cry anniversary until he slipped away
to be with Jesus he spent In that cell
He always said 1t kept him close to
Jesus. A new nature is given to an
old life. In Gods providence through
Christ we can choose to be more his
own; wondrous thought! All are In
yited. The second Peter stood like
rock. The first Peter, Jesus called tht
devil (Math 1929. In John 21:6 al
the disciples were not able to draw
the net out Of the water because Of
so many fish. But Peter, after be-
ing at the feet of Jesus moment
John 21:1D, drew the whole thinf
out himself. Jesus is not here Il
person, but by his spirit he is as ablC
to equip as then.
| A grief stricken father went tt

sick boy, but Jesus sent his word a.

but savior for his whole house

Many will yet say, like the Queer

Jesus is surely precious to all thai
believe list Pet. 2:D. But In. Reve
lations prayer Is turned into praise
faith into sight. Prayer is found II
the Bible 4SO times and praise 96;
times, but the time is to come wher
there shall be no prayer; all praise
and 1t will all go to him who loved us
etc. (Gal. 2:20). Blessed, Thrice
