Imenational SUNMrSOlOOl . Lesson ~ fBy E. 0. 8ELLERS, Director of Even lng> Department, The Moody Bible In stitute of Chicago.) LESSON FOR JUNE 23 THE PENITENT WOMAN. LESSON TEXT-Luke 7:36-50. GOLDEN TEXT?"Faithful Is the say ing and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to ?ave sinners."?! Tim. 1:15. Jesus had accepted an hjvltatlon to visit the home of the aristocrat Simon, but instead of being treated with courtesy he is humiliated by studied neglect and Insult There was one, however, who fully appreciated his real worth, a woman of the street who had doubtless seen him enter or else observed him at meat through the open doorway. Knowing him is one thing, but to love him is quite an other. Do not confound this woman with Mary Magdalene there Is no con nection at all. Jesus fclway* drew to himself the sinful oftes; It was for that purpose ne came into ine wuriu, to bear our sins (Matt. 1:21; Isa 53:6). This woman was, however, a sinner who no longer ran after her sin, but one who was repentant. This is shown by (1) her sorrow (weep ing); (2) her humble service (wiping his feet), and (3) her gift of love (the alabaster box), this latter having un doubtedly been an accessory of her life of sin, but now devoted to a more noble use. As the odor filled the house the self-satisfied Pharisee Bpake "within himself," but he who discern eth the thoughts and intents of the heart knew not only how great a sin ner she had been, but knew also the cloak' of self-righteousnes worn by Simon. Her purity and holiness had been shattered like the alabaster box and Jesus proceeds to shatter Simon's shell of self complacency by putting forth one of his matchless parables. Jesus Speaks to Simon. A certain creditor, undoubtedly meaning himself, had two debtors, by Inference this woman and this Phari see. Both alike were bankrupt, one owed about $8.50 and the other ten times as much, about $85. Both alike, however, received forgiveness. "Tell me," says the Master, "which debtor will love most?" The Pbari * 1/\/rlAn1 m?iai Vi ntr bees reyiy was um lugitai uuc, wcj both depend upon the mercy of the creditor, hence the gratitude will be in ratio to the amount forgiven. Much had been required, hence much for given. Jesus Immediately turns the Pharisee's answer to a practical appli cation. Taking the words out of Simon's mouth he makes one of the most complete and practical applica tions of applied Christianity in the gospel record. To paraphrase Jesus says: "Simon, I came into your house and the most common courtesy of washing a guest's feet you neglected, yet this woman has washed my feet with her tears, an evidence of her re pentance, while you sit there with dry eyed cynicism. She has wiped my feet with the hairs of her head, her glory and crown has been laid at my feet while you have not so much as offered me a towel to wipe the dust off my feet as I left my sandals at your door. Simon you gave me no kiss, that common mark of a courteous welcome, yet this woman has not ceased to kiss my feet since the time I came Into your house. The annolnt lng oil, common olive oil, you neglect ed to use, yet the precious oil of her treasure she has thankfully poured upon my feet Simon, your life Is a life of works so are these acts of this woman, but your life is one of zeal while her acts have been prompted by love." in anotner piace jesus lens ub uiai If we love him we will do the things he commands us and that he and the Father will come and abide with us. Hers was the heroic love of one who having lost her shame dared to thrust herself into an unbidden house of re freshment and perform those neglect ed menial duties, the result of which was that reward for her faith that meant forgiveness of her sins. By her attention to these duties she was ' unconsciously rebuking the vanity of Simon's self merit while at the same time she waB showing to the world a fine example of the gratitude of a ! saved one. Paul later expressed it ! most forcefully in the fourth chapter j of his letter to the Romans. The man j who works has not a reward of grace, bu. of debt, but he that believeth is j justified, his faith being counted for righteousness. The Great Creditor. TMo wnm a n lrnow cho hnrl r?o -mprit of her own and hence she threw her self at the feet of Jesus, claimed his 1 righteousness and compassion and at | ! the same time by her acts she showed i 1 the attitude of her heart and of course | she had the desire of her heart. It has always been so for has not the ' j Master said, "Happy are they who j j hunger and thirst after righteousness, I for they shall be fed?" After this "practical sermon of ap plied Christianity" to Simon, Jesus turns to the woman, nameless so far as the Scripture record Is concerned, and with Infinite and a heavenly thrill In his voice he said: "Thy faith hath saved thee, go in peace." "Who is the : creator," they asked. Jesus teaches us that though there \ be degrees of guilt, all alike must ! come to God for forgiveness. Also j that he, the Great Creator, is the one to whom we owe our debt of sins and who alone can without merit dis charge that debt and send us forth in peace. To Be a Blessing.

BIG FORTUNE WELL HANDLED Millions Left by the Late Russell Sage Are Being Expended for the Wel fare of Humanity. While the late Russell Sage was in the flesh he was one of the most pru dent, shrewd and persistent money grubbers in Gotham. The astute finan cier never plunged nor risked any money in wild-cat schemes. He was a "sure-shot" operator in Wall street, and when he died he left in the hands of his lone widow a fortune of some thing like $75,000,000. Since becom ing possessed of this enormous for tune she has worked as persistently and assiduously in scattering the money as her husband did in gather ing it. The scriptures tell us that the miser is the man that "heaps up riches and cannot tell who shall gath er them." Russell Sage knew better, and the good lady upon whose shoul ders was imposed the burden of this enormous sum of money has worked hard in lightening the burden. Her philanthropies have been productive of as much wisdom as marked her hus band's operations in the market. She is reported to be failing in health, and her task is only begun. Should she be taken from the world thousands will regret her departure, and it is very earnestly to be hoped that fur ther care of the property will fall into good hands.
