.EIS RISEN" Easter is the

LIE IS RISEN" Easter is the
IL second great festival of
the Church year, and to many,
coming as it does amid spring
flowers and songs, it brings more
joy than even Christmas. The
risen Christ has left his impress
upon the world, and even those
who do not openly believe
dimly realize living Savior as
necessary part of their spiritual
world.
The scriptural account of the
resurrection presents difficulties
to some minds, but to attempt to
deny the alleged facts or explain
away the supernatural phases of
the event brings US into an i'm,
possible situation.
The story which the PhariSees
tried to start-that the body was
stolen by the disciples-reminds

First, That the tomb was
guarded by Roman soldiers.
Second, That the disciples were
not fighters and at this particu
lar time We're in condition of
cowardice and gloom. They had
all run away when Jesus was ar,
rested and none had come forth
to defend him during the trial or
afterwards.
Third, That the disciples did
not believe in the resurrection at
that moment, aud knowing the
body was safe in Joseph's tomb,
had no motive for trying to take
it away.
Fourth, That some of the inner
circle of Christ s followers visit.

A Mohammedan was once talk

"Yes," said the missionary, land
that is one difference that We are
very thankful for, Your prophet

we might have it more abundant.

give any vital meaning to these
precious words.
Christ's resurrection was
necessary that the hope of man
might be renewed. The gcntiles
