THE CAUTION OF Jesus

There is not a trace OF a ~foolhardy
streak in Jesus. Those who are not
willing to venture anything might
think so. For he was a very venture
some character. His courage was
without limit. But he knew just how
far to venture. He knew when to do
so and when to refrain. He even
knew when to hide himself and when
10 withdraw from the presence of his
enemies. The whole action Of his
life was determined by the plan of 1t
decided upon In the covenant from
eternity with his Father. Until the
proper time arrived he ~refrained from
action and from presenting himself
to the hatred of those whom he must
In the nature of the case oppose. He
did not let himself come into their
power until it served the purpose OF
| his coming to earth, and when nothing
else would do.
Furthermore IL would seem that II
! the beginning of his ministry he did
| not entrust himself TO his friends. Yet
he did. But II was his perogative to
determine who were his friends and
| who were not. There were those who
seemed to be friends and were not. He
knew just exactly who were and who
were not There were some who
| thought themselves to be his friends
| and were deceived in the matter. To
be sure they were honest In their be-
| lief, but their judgment was so pc
| that they were not to be counciled
with not trusted in their sincerity.
There is such a thing as being an
incipient friend, but not a Trustworthy
friend. Believing In Jesus is bein~ :
| friend to him. But the BELIEF mu
grow and mature for 1t to be of WORT
for the protection of Jesus and %
worth in working for and with him
Even all of his disciples were not
| trustworthy. One of them betrayed
him. And he no doubt at the begin
| ming would have scorned the sugges'
| ton that ne could do such a thing
| His trouble was that he did not stand
the testing of friendship. The friend
that Is to be trusted is the n who
has beer tested and found to be such
But Jesus did not have TO wait un
III those who believed in him proved
themselves. He knew who would d
gelop in belief and who would lose
their belief in selfish ambition. His
deity protected him and that protect:
him now. II you are growing In thu
Christian faith you are worthy of con
fdence by God and man. But IL YOU
are not you cannot be taken into thu
councils of the Savior of the world

The Montana junior senator is ac-
cused in the indictment of having

gas prospecting leases giving them the
exclusive right to develop Gil OF gov
eminent lands for a period of two
years.
Campbell and Stevenson are known

gives him an understanding of the in

This works everywhere and univer-

love is the only thing that gives en-
trance into the essential character of
anyone. In that love of Jesus is in
finite he sees what is in man.
Here Is a very plain reason why 1t
is unnecessary for anyone to commend
anyone to Jesus or why 1t Is foolish
for anyone to condemn anyone before
him. He does not need to take the
word OF anyone. He Is witness unto
himself. But 1t is a very different
thing for one to present another to
Jesus for his individual dealing with
him. The hope of the world Is in the
interest one has In another. Just as
it is in the interest Jesus has in every
one. He says of himself, !" / know my
