Sunday School Lesson
BY
Rev. Hugh T. Stevenson.

but a Person. He emphasized the real
Importance of every believers relation
to Him. In his dim uncertainty,
Thomas remained faithful to the Lord
Jesus in his loyalty and love. The
only way men can see or know God to-
day is through Jesus Christ.
Revelation Brings Conviction.
Thomas was absent from the meet
ing of the disciples when Jesus APP
peared to them upon the day Of His
resurrection. He had passed through
the sorrow that tests the strongest
men. His faith and hopes had all been
DESTROYED by the cross. He had lis
tened to the reports of the women and
doubted them. In this he was Joined
by other members of the apostolic col
lege. When he heard them tell the
story of Christ's appearance to them,
he insisted that he must put his hands
into the wounds made in His body
while He was on the cross before he
would believe.
A week went by. The defiant dis
believer in the possibility of the Lords
resurrection was present with the other
apostles in the upper room, when
Christ suddenly appeared. When Jesus
singled Thomas out and met his con-
ditions, the apostle did not put forth
his hands to feel the wounds. The
revelation convinced him that Christ
had risen. He at once confessed his
faith in Him, crying out, MY Lord
and God" The cautious seeker for the
truth had his doubts completely re-
moved by the revelation that demon
strated beyond question the reality OF
the Lords resurrection.
Although Jesus met the doubts Of
Thomas with proofs that convinced the
apostle, He did not commend his
doubts. Probably because the apostle
insisted that his tests must be met,
when he should have accepted the evil
dence that was presented to him by
the witnesses who had seen Him after
He had risen. Jesus said that those
"who have not seen, yet have be-
ieved," were the blessed ones. Each
of us has the privilege Of sharing in
that blessing. In every hour Of doubt,
we can count upon securing blessing
If we turn to the Lord Jesus and fol-
low Him.

accident occurred, but it was due to the drivers of the private ma chimes, not to the public conveyance operator.
 The writer was incensed enough to have wrecked the bus had his car been big enough and heavy enough to do so and could it have been done without damage to pas sengers unquestionably others were just a much upset.
 The bus drivers and transportation officials appeal to the public occa- sionally not to pick up individuals who are waiting for a bus. thus de- priving them of a fare. Possibly it would be a good plan for every driver to pick up every possible fare along the highway. Then the buses with their needless drivers. running on schedule whatever the traffic conditions. would eventually be eliminated removing a very real hazard from the highways.
