TOMORROW'S SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
PAUL Goes to
Jerusalem
BY REV. EDWARD YABER

salem. He realized that for him
the trip might mean tragedy
AS the disciples of Jesus could
not understand why deliberately
He set His face toward Jerusa-
lem, SO the followers Of Paul
rnarveled at his expressed deter
nination to 90 To the city Of
David.
The friends Of the great
Apostle enjoined him most
earnestly to stay away from
Jerusalem, where he had many
enemies. The answer az the
Apostle Is dramatic, even thrill
ing:
What mean We to weep and
to break my heart? For am
ready not to be bound only, but
also to die in Jerusalem for the
Lord Jesus.
What matter that every pre-
caution advised against the trip.
What matter that Paul already
had done more than his share in
preaching the Gospel, that his
career had been brilliant sue
cess, and that To 20 to the cita-
del Of his enemies was to invite
disaster and death. Paul was
convinced that to go there was
his duty. That was enough he
would 90.
1t would have been very easy
for the Apostle to have justified
retirement from active service.
He no longer was young. He
had been through many perils.
His life had been q hard one.
His choice was the choice of
supreme courage. AS a result Of
the visit To the city, he was
made captive, and later was
taken to Rome, where he met a
martyrs death.
But the triumphs Of the politi-
cal priests over Paul and
Christ were fleeing ones. Paul
preached his message, even when
prisoner, and the faith of the
church is based on the belief
that the glory Of Easter followed
the tragedy Of Good Friday.

when Christ declared ii was
necessary for Him to SO to
Jerusalem, He predicted that the
trip would result in His death.
To the astonished disciples He
said:
I behold, we 90 UP to Jerusa-
lem
The followers Of Jesus knew
that Jerusalem was the gather
ing place Of His enemies; that
the city ever had rejected Him.;
that it had stoned the Old Tesla
nent prophets, and would plot
against Him; that already the
Pharisees had made their plans
to bring about His death.
The success that had been so
conspicuous in the towns and
villages Of GaliIee never had
been duplicated in Jerusalem.
There intrenched graft and polit-
ical privilege made the city l1n-
responsive to the message OF the
Master.
True, many had heard Him
gladly iii the Holy City, as
everywhere else He went. But
the Temple, about which the
religious life Of the city conferred,
was under the dominion of the
priesthood, and the priests did
not respond to the teachings Of
the young Prophet.
From the day when Christ
drove the money changers out
of the Temple, overturning the
tables, and crying, 1T is written
my Fathers house shall be called
4 house of prayer, and We have
made it q den Of thieves, the
ecclesiastical powers we're bent
upon His death.
"A brief triumph, when the
Master was hailed by the throngs
upon His last entrance into
Jerusalem, was followed swiftly
by the betrayal, the so-called
trial, and the crucifixion.
The greatest of the Apostles
of the Master, st. Paul, after
long and useful service in many
cities, determined to 60 to Jeru-
