thy presence at the tomb Of Jesus
precluded trickery," Too much
did you think of your precious
live, to sleep while the disciples
stole him away.
The certainty as to his identity
the varied manner Of his appear
ing, led on to the recognition of
the spiritual Christ, the perfect
expression of a God who is Spirit,
whom we should learn to worship
in spirit and in truth.
This greatest sin should humble
and stir us; This greatest love
should constrain us; This great
est revelation should impel us to
most earnestly realize all that the
"Cross of Christ was intended to
mean to us. The Jews stumbled
at it. Greeks called it foolish
ness. But to us who believe it is
the power of God, and the wisdom
OF God. What is it to you?
Rev. Y. S. Fretz,

The Cross And It's Meaning

specifically, we will find that mil
lions, believing and acting upon
the fact, have been helped from
failure and degradation to lines Of
power, usefulness, and righteous
ness.
The love revealed at the cross
also stresses the marvellous worth
Of the human soul. A few weeks
ago we were deeply stirred by the
living entombment of Floyd Col
Inns. Many could not read the
story for the tears of sympathy
which blurred their eyes. Most
of us were helpless except as pray
er might help, if not to deliver,
yet to strengthen the sufferer,
There were those Lear at hand,
who worked nightly to help. Not
one but many rislled their lives to
rescue one from suffering for a
brief life. He was a fellow man
with like passions and fondness
for life like themselves. Did we
approve oheir perilous effort
Did our Learts rejoice in their will
ingness to serve? How much more
i then, should we rejoice in the
great love which took Jesus to the
cross for the sake Of our earthly
and eternal good.
Beginning with this cross was
the greatest revelation. With this
there began the real understanding
Of the Christ. Even with his dis
ciples the human body seemed to
hide the real person tempted with
in. Jesus heartily approved Peter
when he confessed, "Thou art the
Christ, the son of the living God"
But neither Peter nor any other
of the disciples seemed to
sense the broad significance of
this confession. Hope fled when
they saw him on the cross, and
later sealed in rocky tomb. The
two on the way to Emmans des-
pailingly said: "But we trusted
that it had been he which should
Ihave redeemed Israel. y His Jewish
enemies who asked him for sign
to whom he replied, destroy this
temple and in three days | will
raise it up again" feared that the
disciples might steal his body, and
report his resurrection. They re,
quested a Roman Guard to stay al
the tomb three days to preclude
trickery.
