The Roosevelt Budget

After the first gasp over a seven
billion dollar deficit, country that
is beginning to shake off the leth-
argy Of fear and turn its face again
to hope will not feel that the cost
Of recovery is excessive.
Instead it is apt to be surprised
at that portion of President Roose-
velt's budget message which sug-
gests that only two billion dollars
may be spent for emergency mea-
sures during the coming fiscal year
If the patient should have a relapse
due to premature economy, then the
whole great recovery bill to date
would represent loss and the cost
of regaining lost ground would be
doubly heavy.
Fortunately the president does
not close the door to greater appro-
priations for work relief and public
works if these should prove neces-
sary, and year of Mr.. Roosevelt
has taught us that he puts human
beings first and is apt TO do more
rather than less than he promises.
Yet it would seem only reasonable
prudence to prepare we'll in advance
for possible need during the win
ter of 1934-35. One of the bitter
est lessons of the past few months
has been the slowness with which ii
is possible to create jobs through

The Baptism and Temptation O
Jesus, Matthew 3:13-4:11, for Sun
day, Jan. IA:
Where in this lesson is found evi
dence that Jesus was human and
what evidence that he was also di-
vine?
Why did Jesus receive baptism?
What were the points Of tempta-
ton as found in this lesson?
What are the most common temp
tations today and how may they be
overcome?
What good may come from temp
tation? When is temptation evil?
What are some of the wrong
ways in which we may try to get
the necessities of life?
Glorious says: eve never know
how near we are to an undreamed-
of blessing, when we are perform
ing a duty however common or hard
it may be. The humblest decd faith

ed forty days and nights, he after
ward hungered, and the tempter
came to him and said unto him, II
thou art the Son of God, command
that these stones become bread. =
This is common temptation,
doubling God, similar to the temp
tation of Adam and Eve. Too often
the necessity for bread and pleasure
is supposed to justify any means to
get them.
V. q. But he answered and
said. It is written, man shall not
live by bread alone, but by every
word that proceedeth out of the
mouth of Cod Christ overcame
this temptation to satisfy bodily
desire. by substituting a spiritual
satisfaction. The way to meet such
a temptation is practicing self de-
nial and standing firmly upon some
promise of God.
V 5. g. "Then the devil taketh
him unto the holy city and set him
on the pinnacle of the temple and
saith unto him, If thou art the Son
of God, cast thyself down; for it is
written, He shall give his angels
charge over thee" This tempta-
ton is the opposite of the first; the
first temptation implied trusting
God too little, the second implies
trusting God too much, and so be-
ing presumptuous in his trust. The
temptation also involved the use of
divine power for personal ends.
v. 7. "Jesus said unto him,
Again it is written, Thou shalt not
make trial of the Lord thy God"
When we attempt to make God do
miraculously what may be done
naturally. we tempt God
v. 8, 9. "And again the devil
taketh him unto an exceeding high
mountain and showeth him all the
kingdoms of the world and the
glory of them, and saith unto him,
All these things will / give thee, if
thou wilt fall down and worship
me. Here was a temptation to use
a short cut to the kingdom and to
use worldly means to gain the
world, as Alexander, Caesar and
many others tried to do. Here was
also the temptation to pay homage
to the evil one rather than the
Father.
v. 10, II "Then saith Jesus un-
to him, Get thee hence Satan, for it
is written, Thou shalt worship
the Lord thy God and Him only
shalt thou serve" Jesus was truly
pious, and the suggestion to wor-
ship Satan was instantly cast out
of his mind. A right motive back
ed by an intelligent will overcomes
every evil.

The Baptism and Temptation o1
day, Jan. IA:
The birth of Jesus was followed
by twelve years Of silence, when
occurred his first visit to Jerusalem
and then silence again for Is years
when he is known as the carpenter
Jesus took thirty years of prepara-
tion for three years of service.
v. 13. Then cometh Jesus from
Galilee to the Jordan, unto John, to
be baptized of him." Jesus did not
need baptism for repentance OF
sin, but he honored this ordinance,
and to him it was dedication of
his life to God; those baptized need
to remember that like Jesus they
also have been dedicated and there
fore belong to God.
". IA, Is "But John would
have hindered him, but Jesus said,
Suffer it now, for thus it becometh
us to fulfill all righteousness. Je-
sus was ever teaching the fulfill
ment of righteousness. When one
has spirit and life of always doing
the right, without an effort he
obeys all laws of righteousness.
V. 16 "And Jesus when he was
baptized went up straightway from
the water; and 10, the heavens were
opened unto him and he saw the
Spirit of God descending as dove
and coming upon Him." While
Jesus took on the form Of man, in
a sense was human, yet he was di-
vine His divinity is here declar-
ed. here is also seen the triune
God speaking and saying 'This is
my beloved Son"-Jesus, that son,
and the Hoy Spirit descending as a
dove. Mems minds are staggered in
trying to conceive the meaning of
a triune God this is fact that
must be accepted as such
V. /. "Then was Jesus led up of
the Spirit into the wilderness, to
be tempted of the devil" That
Jesus might be present help In
time of need, he submitted himself
to the severest temptations that
could befall anyone; the Spirit of
God was with him, and there lies
the secret of victory when tempted.

This being the case, it is diff cult

So large are the amounts in '1an

less it is true that President Roose-

the regular departments of the gov

Herbert Hoover spent during his
last year in office. For the most
part these economies have been
wisely made.
