Not Christ Alone

IF CHRIST'S MEN had refused to
L follow where he led, if all Chris
tians had been willing to let him
carry, alone, the burden Of the
worlds sin and grief, there never
would have been any Christianity
for there would never have been
any Christians. Peter and James
and the rest of the apostles would
have refused to die for Jesus sake.
The noble army of martyrs would
have been an ignoble army Of
towards.
No missionary ever would have
left home and comforts and coun-
ery; no mother would have laid
down her life for her children; the
unselfish service of those who have
cared for the sick and the orphaned
would never have been done; in
deed, had no one ever been willing
to suffer for the benefit Of others,
one wonders whether the world
could have even held together this
long.
Christ died that the world
might live, yes; but others also
had to die to make his death
avail. He died for Africa, tl1at
Africans might live; but Afri-
cans died till men like Living
stone ana SeI1weitzer and many
a less famous man and woman
also went out and lived there
in loneliness and died in pain.
Christ died for the little children
of the poor, but until the Salvation
Army and others like them went
down into the sluns and suffered
there with and for them, those
poor little people died without so
much as dreaming that God might
love them.
Christ died for all the lepers in
the world; but until a Father Da-
mien, and others no less Christ
like, went among the outcast lepers
and became outcasts themselves
for the love of Christ, those lepers
died in the dark.

questioned at Oakland and permitted
to continue his return to camp.
Authorities termed the accident I'M
avoidable and no charges were pre-
ferred. The car was considered a total
loss.

"Let Him Take
His Own Cross Daily"

IVES, Isaiah So pictures the self
L sacrifice Of our Lord, above all.
But any one who has any intention
of being a true servant Of God must
be willing to find his own life-direc-
ton right here. The world does not
need more pain; it does need those
who will suffer pain to serve others
in Ctrist's name.

The Scarlet TI1read

ISAIAH 53 has been in the center
Z of the church's thinking about
Christ from the beginning. It may
be said to run like a scarlet thread
through the New Testament. It was
in the back Of the minds of Paul
and John and Peter alike. This
great prophecy sheds a light on
what otherwise had been Q black
opaque blot-the death of Christ.
What would otherwise be
simply a horrible tragedy, per-
haps the greatest tragedy Of
history. the perfect case of
complete Injustice, the final
evidence that there IS no God,
in the light Of Isaiah SIS be-
comes center Of glory.
Instead of being ashamed Of the
cross on which Jesus died, tho
church sings, "In the cross Of
Christ I glory" Glove so
amazing, 50 divine, demands my
soul. my life. my all"
We believe that Christ suffered
not for his own but for others sake.
Suffering, not forced but willingly
undergone, suffering not as mere
pain but that others might be
saved, suffering on behalf Of others
and for love Of thenl-tilis is the
key to the riddle Of existence. this
is the key to the heart Of God,

Street Improvement Asked
To Reroute K-4 Buses

The Lamond Heights Citizens
Association has asked the District
sewer division to connect an open
sewer span on Rittenhouse street
NE. so that the K-4 busline may
use that street instead Of Quack-
enbos street NE.
At present the Street Division
has declared Rittenhouse street
unsuitable for bus traffic. Until
the sewer situation there is rem
edied, the present route must be
continued over Quackenbos street.
Rittenhouse street has been deSig-
mated as the northbound route for
the bus by the Public Utilities
Commission.
The group also will ask about
the possibilities of increasing the
K-4 bus service to the area and
of initiating an express bus from
the downtown loop at Twelfth and
E streets NV. to Farragut street

OF His Ministry, saying, Inc
works that | do, shall We do
also; and greater works than
these shall We do, because | go
unto the Father"
These humble fishermen
were used of God in the found
ing of the Church on the Day
of Pentecost. Peter delivered
the sermon, on that occasion,
which brought about the con-
version of three thousand souls.
1t was Peter who, going into
the Temple with John a short
time after, had the faith to
bring healing to "the man lame
from his mothers womb"
which healing resulted in sever
al thousand more being added
to the Church. The Church con-
tinued to grow greatly and was
scattered into many parts of
Galilee, Samaria, and Judea;
and Peter, passing through
these places establishing the
believers, came also "to the
saints which dwelt at Lydia"
II THE INTEREST PETER
HAD IN THE HEALING
OF AENEAS- Verses 33,

4:4O-44; John 5:1-9; IA:

While tarrying with the
saints at LYDIA, Peter was
brought in contact with "a GER
tain man named Aeneas, who
had kept his bed eight years,
and was sick of the palsy" Pc
ter could have passed him by
as many others had done, but
realized that here was a God
given opportunity to bring
glory to the Name of Jesus. He
realized that he had no power
in himself to effect the deliver
ance, but that Jesus, the Risen,
Triumphant Christ, had not
changed and was still willing
to bestow healing upon the
sick and afflicted. Peter had
faith that this helpless man
could be healed in the all-pre-.
vailing Name of Jesus Christ.
Peter was the spokesman for
the disciples on a certain oc-
casion, answering the question
put to them by the Lord: "Who
do men say that I, the Son of
man. ann" by boldly declar-

ing: "Thou art the Christ (Mes-
siah), the Son of the Living
God" Now that Jesus had died
and was risen, Peter was more
than ever convinced that
Neither is there Salvation in
any other, for there is none
other Name under Heaven CIV
en- among men, whereby we
must be saved"
Without hesitation, without
fear or doubt, Peter issued the
command: "Aeneas, Jesus
Christ maketh thee whole,
arise, and make thy bed"
Then the lame man mani

ing God at His Word and

must the ministry be able to
"pray the prayer of faith" but
those desiring healing must
believe and act on their faith
in accepting their healing and
deliverance from God.

THE HEALING OF AEN-
EAS - Verse 35; Psalm

Zech. 8:20-22; John 4:31-
AZ; 14:16, II, &c; Acts 5:
1916; 1858.
The results of Peters faith
for the healing of this palsied
man are seen in the words:
Call that dwelt at LYDIA and
Sharon saw him (the healed
NAM, and turned to the Lord"
Our Lord Jesus Christ intended
His disciples to carry on the
ministry of healing. The Of
ficers of the Church are not
only to "preach the Word"
but also>to engage in minis
try of prayer and intercession
on behalf of the sinful, the sick,
and the troubled. The New Tes-
lament encourages the sick to
expect healing and blessing
through the prayer of faith
offered by "the elders of the
Church."
DO YOU MAKE JESUS
KNOWN AS THE SAVIOR
AND HEALER DTVTNE9

The ministry of Divine Heal
ing was entrusted to the disci-
Piles to make their preaching
of the Gospel more effective.
Numerous imposters have ap-
reared from time to time
Claiming for themselves the
power to heal the sick. 1t is
written that Satan has power
"to work Miracles" Many peo-
pie are gullible to such claims.
These so-called "healers" Of
ten have great followings, as
seen in Christian Science and
Spiritualism. Gods people
should beware of such deceiv-
ers. The Word of God teaches
there is only One "DIVINE
HEALER" only One Who is
able to heal call manner of
sickness and all manner of dis
ease" Jesus could rightly ap-
propriate to Himself, as He did
on two occasions, the word
physician; for such He is in
very deed to all who put their
trust in Him. The account of
the healing of Aeneas as given
in this Lesson, brief as is the
record, serves the purpose of
squirting on the ministry, as
we'll as every believer, to trust
Christ Jesus more fully for the
healing of the sick and afflict-
ed.

The Apostle Peter was
among the first disciples called
by the Lord at the Sea of Cali
lee while engaged in fishing,
to whom the Lord said, "Fol-
low Me, and I will make you
fisher of men," With the 9TH
er disciples, Peter had follow
ed Jesus in His itinerant min
istry and had witnessed the
many miracles wrought upon
"all the sick people that were
taken with divers diseases and
torments. and those that
had the palsy" He, with the
other disciples, remembered
the words which the Lord had
spoken to them at the close
