Lesson
Rv WILLIAM E. GILROY DID.

By WILLIAM E. GILROY DID.
The topic of this lesson for
young people and adults is The
Sufficient Christi" and that
phrase accurately ,characterlzes
both the letter and spirit OF the
Epistle to the Hebrews.
The writer of the Epistle has
a deep sense of thu spiritual
heritage of Israel. "God," he
writes, Eat sundry times and in
divers manners spake in times
past unto the fathers by the
prophetG;" and in the 18th chap
ter he records the story OF the
men and women of faith III a
way that only a lover of Israel
and OF Israel's religion could
have done. He is convinced OF
Gods promise, and OF His cove
nant with His people.
But his faith and outlook as
an earnest Israelite is domlnat-
ed by the supreme conviction
that God, who spoke formerly
through the prophets, has
spoken sin these last days"
through His Son, Jesus Christ,
"the brightness of His glory
and "the express image of His
person"
Holding, thus strongly, a be-
lief in the divinity of Jesus,
what is remarkable about his
Epist]e is the clarity and in
sistency with which he presents
and expounds the fact of
Christ's humanity. There is no
inconsistency in this, for the
doctrine of the Incarnation i'm
plies both divinity and humani-
ty. 1t is the doctrine set forth
in the opening of the Gospel of
John, of the word made flesh,
and dwelling among men John
1:14).
With all the greatness Of the
past religion OF Israel, 1t is the
writer's contention that there
was something Incomplete, and
a promise unfulfilled. Saints
and prophets obtained a good
report through faith, but re-
ceived not the promise: God
having provided some better
thing for us, that they without
us should not be made perfect"
(Hebrews 11:3940.
Though it is not known, with
any certainty, to whom the
Epistle was addressed, it seems
evident that it was written to
Jewish Christians, subject to

The attendance soon grew in
such proportions as to n%ecessi-

which was begun in the spring

The Rev. E. w. Pate. at that
time missionary of the Whining

apart today.
The leaders of two of them,
Bishops Homer A. TOomlinson,
of New York, and Milton A.
Tomlinson, of Cleveland. Tenn.
brothers, apparently were still
friends but Still opponents on
matters of the church.
However, the two bishops
were comforting today about the
possibility of publishing the
diary of their father, the late
A. j. Tomlinson, who founded
the Church of God in 1903 in
North Carolina and |: ter moved
its headquarters here.
Bishop Homer told his broth
er he had been "misquoted" by
press reports recently that he
was threatening to sue Bishop
Milton and Millions branch Of
the church for S., 900, 600 be-
cause the brother wouldn't turn
the diary over to him fer pub
LEGATION.
Bishop Homer Tomlinson
came here yesterday to hold a
memorial service for his faith
err. He held the service, a short
one, behind. not inside. the tab
ernacle. last night. His brother
wouldn't let him use the taber-
nacle.

the same sort of persecution
that Saul had carried on against
the Christians before he became
Paul, the convert. To the charge
that they we're untrue to the re-
ligion of their fathers, the writ
er asserts the realities of the
new covenant, and the nature
and mission of Christ as the
minister Of better things.
The key passage of which all
the rest might be regarded as
exposition is in the second
chapter and especially in 2:l7.
Though greater than angels, the
Son of God made himself lower
than the angels, taking upon
Himself human nature and be-
ing made "like unto His breth-
rem that He might be a merci-
full and faithful high priest in
things pertaining to God to
make reconciliation for the sins
of the people,"
But what of priestliness and
sacrifice IN the Jewish religion?
The writer's answer is that
Jesus is a superior high priest
inasmuch as He has offered
Himself a sacrifice once for all.
An insistent question, l think,
concerns how much of religious
faith and practice of today is
in the realm of unfulfilled
promise, awaiting the supreme
experience Of Christ Himself as
"the Minister of better things"
