Peters Great Confession, Luke
9:1S-26, | Peter 2:5-6, for Sunday
Jan 13::
What does it mean to confess
Christ?
Why was Peters confession call
ed the Great Confession?
How does one express himself
when he is ashamed Of Christ?
Why do material things have a
greater appeal to the majority than
spiritual things?
How may one lose his life and
yet save his life?
How much of the world can we
gain and how much of the soul can
we lose?
Glorious says: "To confess Christ
is to have an active faith in a saw
ing Christ who pardons our sins;
in a reckoning Christ who takes
into account every word, deed and
thought; in a rewarding Christ who
gives eternal life.'
Lesson prayer: "Help US to sc
use the faith in Christ that we have
that we may have more faith to con-
fess Him and to serve Him; for
bid that we should allow worldly
things to possess us and thus close
our SOULS

Peters Great Confession, Luke
S.16-26, l Peter 2:5-6, for Sunday.
Jan. IS:
This lesson took place nearly two
wears after the preceding one; Je-
sus was Withdrawing from the null
titude in the extreme north of Pal
estfne. near Mt. Hermon, for prayer
and for a conference with his dis
ciples.
Y. IS. "And it came to pass, as
ne was praying apart, the disciples
were with him; and he asked them,
saving. Who do the multitudes say
am?" Christ felt the need OF
prayer. a suggestion that his fol-
lowers cannot live we'll without
praving we'll: connected with pray
ar is Christian fellowship, and so
his disciples were with him Je-
sus as an ideal teacher used the
question method in producing
Christian faith and Christian con-
fession.
V. 10. "And they answering. said,
John the Baptist; but others say
Elijah: and others, that one Of the
old prophets is risen again" These
answers portrayed the fact that
Christ was considered more than an
ordinary man by the general pub
lie. even those today who do own
him as Lord also regard him as one
far above the average. But such
regard does not count much for the
indiyidual for truth to have value
must be lived.
V. 20. ''And he said unto them
But who say We that am, And
Peter answering said The Christ oi
Cod" Personal confession is vita
for ones own souls welfare; pub
lie confession of Christ is valuable
