The Twelve Sent Forth, Matthew
8 9:35-1O:8, 80, 33, for Sunday. Feb
rs.
In what ways has the field Of the
world grown greater in oul day?
Into what fields are we sent?
What is the difference between a
disciple and an apostle?
Which of the apostles were
brothers?
What governed the choosing OF
the twelve disciples?
How can the work of evangeliz-
ing the world be fastened?
Why should we win others to
Christ?
Glorious says: 1.-THE charcoal
needs only the rearrangement of it's
atoms to become a diamond. The
rough block of marble needs only
the sculptor's chisel to become an
angel. The humblest soul needs
only the Transforming touch of
Christ's spirit to become forever
pure and beautiful"
Lesson prayer: Help us to pray
so sincerely that we will do our
utmost in answering our own pray
er; may we see the world in need
of Saviour, and be moved to offer
ourselves in Christian service"

years, when formalities. became
necessary, the surgeon has on oc-
casions written his name as Gate

DIR. Gatewood now is a surgeon

The Twelve Sent Forth, Matthew
.35-10:1-S, 80. 33, for Sunday
Feb. Is.
The work of Jesus was growing
and it was necessary to use wider
means in accomplishing it. So il
was that he called twelve men into
his companionship that they might
be trained to carry on his work af.
ter he had gone.
V. 35. "And Jesus went about
all the cities and villages, teaching
in their synagogues and preaching
the gospel of the kingdom, and
healing all manner of disease and
what has been called the third cir
cult of Jesus in Galilee. it is also a
fitting introduction to the mission
of the twelve.
v. &C. "But when he saw the
multitudes, he was moved with
compassion for them, because
they were distressed and scattered
as sheep not having a shepherd y
The misery and neglect in which
Jesus found the people of Galilee
stirred his heart with a compassion,
a combination of sorrow, sympathy
and love.
V. 81. "Then saith he unto his
disciples, The harvest indeed is
plenteous, but the laborers are
few" Now as then the number Of
active workers in the cause of
Christ is few compared with the
work that is waiting to be done
v. 38. "Pray ye therefore the
Lord of the harvest, that he send
forth laborers into the harvest. :"
Here is an Interpretation of prayer
that indicates action with supplica-
ton. No one can really pray well
for any, cause unless he becomes
active in that cause, and does his
best to further it.
v. 1. "And he called unto him
his twelve disciples and gave them
authority over unclean spirits, to
cast them out and to heal all man.
ner of disease and all manner of
sickness" These twelve had been
selected before and had been in
training by their companionship
with him; the credentials of au-
thority was in their power to per-
form miracle of healing such as the

gospel of the kingdom which was
mentioned first in verse 35.
VS.. Q, 3, 4. Now the names of
twelve apostles are these The first,
Simon who is called Peter, and An
drew his brother; James the son Of
Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas,
and Matthew the publican; James
the son of Alpheus, and Thaddeus;
Simon the Canaanean and Judas
Iscariot, who also betrayed him. :"
He selects the twelve who have
widely diverse gifts and DISPOSE
tions; he would have used all to his
glory. They were of the common
people, but he used such as would
follow him-which is his plan for
today.
VS.. 5, 6. "These twelve Jesus
sent forth, and charged them say
ing, Go not into any way of the
Gentiles, and enter not into any
city of the Samaritans.'' Accord
ing to prophecy, the Jews were to
have the first chance; the basis of
the Christian religion is the Hebrew
religion; it is God-like to hold on
to all who have faith in Him. Up
to this time these twelve were call
ed disciples, but now they are apos-
ties because they were sent forth.
V. 7. "And as We go. preach,
saying, The kingdom of Heaven is
at hand" This is the old watch
word, the great battlecry of the
early messengers. John the Bap-
tist startled all Judea with it in the
wilderness. Jesus took it up when
John was arrested, and now the
twelve are charged to re-echo it
again through all Judea, and wher-
ever lost Israelites are found.
Christ came to introduce king
dom of order and peace and liberty
into the confusion and strife of the
world.
". 8. "Heal the sick, raise the
dead, cleanse the lepers. cast out
demons: freely We have received.
freely give. Their mission was to
be a march of mercy whose monu-
ments would be healed people and
saved souls" Their work was not q
money-making business; they were
to demonstrate the teaching, "Seek
We first the kingdom of God, and all
these things shall be added unto
you."
VS.. 80, 33. Everyone therefore
who shall confess me before men,
him will I also confess before my
Father-but whosoever shall deny
me before men, him will also deny
before my Father who is in heav-
en-" A godly life is the best of
confessions of Christ. An ungodly

Mrs. w. r. Dayy Hostess
For Music Club

From the Clearwater Sun, pub
lished at Clearwater, Fla, we take
the following:
A program of unusual interest
was given by the Tuesday Morning
Music club yesterday
The morning was given to Amer
lean composers, and opened with a
review of "Tin Pan Alley by Isaac
Goldberg, read by Mrs. w. F.
Davy, (Martha Durbin) hostess of
the morning. Mrs. Davy handled
her subject in a most interesting e
manner, touching the ''high lights
throuh the years, ending with the
birth of the present day "jazz." It
was noted that Mrs. Davy held at
tention SO completely that there
was almost absolute stiffness dur
ing the entire reading.
The musical program which fol-
lowed, was splendidly chosen and
very enjoyable. Possibly the two
outstanding numbers. were the
Rhapsody in Blue" by Gershwin.
played by Miss Alice Powers, and
the always popular Italian Street
Song, sung by Mrs. Jack Geals.
Miss Powers rendering of the
beautiful though difficult Rhapsody
was a masterpiece of skill and
poise, of which the audience voiced
appreciation. Mrs.
Geals, in the italian Street Song
captured her audience, who de-
manded an encore. Mrs. r. L.
Rodgers and Ernest Dieffenweirth
gave several interesting numbers.
reaching their climax in the "Song
of Love- from Blossom Time"
For the next meeting of the
Music club the program is to be one
of Southern Melodies by Miss Foley
Of Winter Haven. The music of the
South has a charm peculiar to it
self, and this program promises to-
be an unusually delightful one.
