Two plans for the review are sug-
gested:
I. The Summary Method. This Will
he to lift out the main facts of each
lesson and state the leading teaching
thereof The following brief state-
ments are suggested:
Lesson I. God called Abraham out
from his country and kindred to make
him the heud of the nation through
which the Redeemer was to come. The
leading lesson Is that God blesses men
and nations in order that they may be
n blessing This Is the universal law
of the spiritual realm.
Lesson 2. Israel was given nm exalt-
pu DOSltlbH Ill bTitT lllHl sue HliElb
make God known to the nations. The
message they were directed to procalri
was that God was the Savior Of all
the nations
Lesson 3. Israel's geographical posi-
tion afforded the best opportunity to
carry the Gospel to the whole world.
She was literally in the center of the
world. Special privilege carries with
1t special responsibility.
Lesson 4. The burden of the message
of the prophets was that God Is great
in mercy to all the nations when they
penitently turn to Him from their sins.
Lesson S. Strong drink works great
ruin to all. The only way to escape
this ruin is to totally abstain from It's
use.
Lesson 6. The Psalter, the hymn
book OF the Jewish nation, has as its
central message the Spirit Of Gods
grace to the world. Its aim is to call
men back to God
Lesson 7. Jesus Christ was the pre-
eminent missionary. His compassion
for the multitude moved Him to send
forth laborers in His vineyard. The
missionary message to the lost world
is that through the sacrifclal death Of
Christ salvation Is offered to all.
lesson 8. Christ saved men in order
that they might 20 to the lost world
with the message of His salvation.
Those who have experienced His saw
Ing power will go forth to tell others.
Lesson 9. The Holy Spirit Is the pow
er which will enable the disciples OF
Christ to witness His salvation. He
Will not only enable them to witness,
but TO endure Affections and trials.
Lesson 10. The Gospel was intended
for all the world. God in His prov
dence permits prosecutions and strife
to scatter the disciples in order that
they might witness.
Lesson II. In spite OF opposition.
Paul preached the Gospel in the capi.
tai city Of Rome. He was not ashamed
to proclaim 1t there, for 1t was the
power Of God.
Lesson IL. Christ will come and ca.
tablish His kingdom over the whole
earth. Peace and righteousness shall
then cover the whole earth.
