Church School
A fairly good attendance was
present on Sunday morning Ninety
teachers and scholars were present
for the summer season this was a
fair showing, and we are sure that
those who attended were amply re-
paid by the study of the excellent
lesson presented. The study of the
life and character of Moses is inter
esting at all times and the LESSONS
we will have in the future will bring
out more plainly the great deeds
performed by this great and good
man. It is said that whenever God
wishes a man to do a certain thing
He trains him from youth, and when
grown he is competent to perform
the great tasks which God sets be-
fore him. John the Baptist verifies
this, when as the forerunner of
Christ, he prepared the way of the
Master by preaching repentance for
all. The birth and training of this
great man shows conclusively that
God had all to do with sending him
out and the success of his efforts
were directly due to God--so with
Moses. God had need of a man who
would be able to confront Pharaoh
and cause that naughty King to let
the people of Israel depart from
Egypt. So God watched Moses, not !
only when he lay in the ash of bull
rushes, but his after life as well;
when Pharoah's daughter took the |
child and raised him as her own,
gave to him all the education which |
could be obtained in the schools of |
Egypt; made him what God would |
have him made, man perfect COM
petent to do the great deeds which
God would set before him. That he
was successful, not only in convinc-
ing Pharaoh that it was right that
the children should depart from
Egypt but also he was the great
leader that piloted these same peo-
pie across the Red Sea and into the
This will be learned by
the student by the study of future
lessons.
