Sunday School Lesson

preaching and teaching of Jesus
was manifest at the very outset
of his ministry. He came not as
some theoretical teacher or phi
losopher with an abStruse concep-
ton of life. He brought his
teaching Immediately into the
practical range of daily life, and
He brouht it, also, Immediately
into the atmosphere of the power
that could transform life and
characterize power Of the love
of God. Thus there came first of
all His call to men to repent, to
turn from their sinful ways and
seek the kingdom of heaven
which he declared to be at hand.
What did Jesus mean by this
Kingdom of Heaven? There has
been much dispute among scholars
concerning its exact meaning, but
there need be no question about the
fact that Jesus made it near at
hand. Whether We interpret a later
reference to the Kingdom of God
as meaning that it was within the
hearts of believers or in their midst,
there can be no question about the
reality Of the teaching of Jesus that
the Kingdom of God was near to
men. Thus it was that repentance
was not merely a turning away from
sin, but it was a turning to love and
Righteousness, an acceptance of life
at its best.
Here in our lesson we have four
of these who responded early in
his ministry and became the first of
Ills disciples. Peter and his brother
Andrew, men of impulsiveness and
strength; James and John, whom
we are told that Jesus nicknamed
Boanerges, or Sons of Thunder, ap-
parently with reference to their in
jensity of nature and ambition.
But the teaching of Jesus was
not merely for the great and
strong. 1t a a Gospel for the
common people who heard him
gladly and to whom he brought a
new sense of the worth of life. To
these it was a ministry of healing.
Just all that ~underlay that
ministry in its miraculous aspect we
can never know 1t was not a
scientific age, 1t was not an age
ven when medical skill of any vital
sort had been brought to bear upon
human i'll. In the ordinary course
of the service of medical science to
humanity the greater works that
Jesus predicted are now everywhere
done. But considering the age it
would have been amazing if a
teacher like Jesus could have done
his work without remarkable in
stances of healing.
What is remarkable IS that In
the Gospel narrative this miraculous
element is always subordinated to
the healing of the soul. 1t vas a
minister of redemption to the souls
Of men that Jesus came to the
world, not as a physician but as
the Great Physician healing the
deepest tragedies and hurts of the
human soul, the tragedies and dis
asters that are associated with sin.
Truly the program of Jesus is
comprehensive.
II am come" he said, that they
might have life. and that they
might have it more abundantly."
Here We have no narrow preach
er or teacher, but a man standing
with a full sense Of the illimitable
grace of God conscious that that
grace is adequate for the blessing of
man and for the meeting of every
human need-thus in deed and in
truth revealing the Father.

Aviation
START BUREAU
TO AID filters
SEEKING JOBS
Opportunities in Aviation
Are Found Extremely
Limited.

By Scripps-R0toord Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON. Jan. 10. - IN
employment bureau exclusively Tor
aviation business has been started
in New York. 1t should thrive, for
all Indications are that there are
plenty OF men In the aviation bust
ness now out of jobs, in addition TO
the thousands trying to get in
Like Mark Twain's death, the
huge demand for men in aviation
Is, at present. slightly exaggerated.
The slump In the manufacturing end
Of the industry has been accom-
panied In many parts of the coun-
try by a lesser slump in general
flying.
The aviation magazines carry
scores Of ads by pilots. mechanics
and airport mer seeking jobs, while
the help wanted columns are very
slim In every city there are ex-
perienced pilots looking for work.
Plenty Of Experience
One pilot wrote in to the depart
ment Of commerce the other day.
He wanted to find out about all
these opportunities in aviation one
hears SO much about. He said he
had 1900 hours In the air, yet had
to let his pilots license lapse be-
cause he couldn't get a job and
keep in enough flying time to re-
tain the license.
There Is, it is true, a certain de-
nland for trained men, but that
word trained" is the catch. There
are few new enterprises in aviation
just now, and to get in with one of
the established enterprises, one must
have had years of training in his
special line of aeronautic work.
A transport pilot with 200 hours of
flying stands about as much chance
of getting a job as a student with
ten hours. Thousands of young men
r spending their money to learn
something about aviation, thinking
that when they finish school they
are all set for the big adventure
ana the Dig money.
Get No Attention
But instead they find that with
out actual experience. no one will
pay any attention to them, and it Is
difficult even to get an opportunity
to get that experience. Schools, of
course, r absolutely necessary. but
there Ire few persons who can az
ford to stay in an aviation school
until he has reached the job-holding
stage of his learning.
The new bureau in New York Is
called the Aviation Employment Bu-
reau and listed among it's directors
are Art Goebel, Colonel James Fitz-
maurice, the Irish fiier, and Colonel
Harold e. Hartney.

FOLLOWING his baptism, Jesus
l. spent forty days in the wilder
ness. What happened during that
period we have opportunity to see
In later references to Jesus as 60
ing to the wilderness and 10
the mountain to pray. On one
occasion we are told that when
his ministry seemed at the very
height of its popularity Jesus went
into the mountain and continued all
night in prayer.
1t is in such passages that we
have an opportunity to grasp the
meaning Of his real humanity. He
revealed the divine life and char
acter in his human life, and We
entirely misunderstood the ma
ture and work of Jesus if we do
not think of him as truly man.
His divine ministry and life work
developed in human ways. He felt
his own need Of strength. He was
subject to temptation, and he went
through a preparation for his life
work Just as some lesser prophet
and teacher might nave lone. mus
we can see that probably this period
in the wilderness was a period OF
careful meditation and preparation
fitting him for his work and
ministry. The ministry of a few
years, with it's teachings and ex
ample that have left their divine
impress on the whole life OF
humanity all through the centuries,
was not something hastily conceived
or achieved. 1t was a ministry pre-
pared in discipline and in COM
munion with the Father.
1t is difficult for us to grasp
fully the human aspect of the
ministry of Jesus, but without
our doing SO such a lesson as
this with it's background of prep
aration in the wilderness has little
meaning.
