Too Much Self-Esteem. The Apostle points out that one great danger wh'cl^hesets nil true Christians is; beadlAi?^s-thinking too highly of j self'and therefore not highly enough > of tho brethren, especially of those I ibo stumble in some particular in' wtJch this individual has not yet stum bled. Whoever thinks of himself as somebody in God's sight should begin to realize that he is a nobody unworthy of Divine notice, except through God's favor in Christ. Such a person hinders his own progress In the good way. ' Instead of seeking to Judge or re-1 prove rik; neighbor or his brother in In.ist. wich should seek to prove out [la own work. He should ascertain to That extent he has put away anger, Twrath, malice, hatred, envy, strife, and put on meekness, gentleness, pntience, lang-suHering, brotherly kindness, love. To whatever extent he discerns that he Is progressing along these Scrip turally defined lines, to that extent he has ground for rejoicing, without in any sense or degree seeking to com pare himself with others and thus to estimate himself wholly by the imper fections which he sees in others. Thus each should seek to find his own weak nesses and to bear his own burdens. Along-the lines of this teaching, there is no ro?m for. ?lerlcism. Rather, as the Apostle'points'out, those who are taught si iou fd communicate, with those who teach,i telling them of any bless ings recelVed or' of any clearer views of G oil's,'Word -which hove come to them. He may also have meant that, they should recom pense that teach er either with thanks or with co operation or in some other way help him to for ward bis work of touching. There is a prin ciple at stake here. Reaping. God operates along the lines oNjustice, "and cannot be deceived. We might deceive even ourselves temporarily with specious 'arguments, but. none cuu deceive Him U .... a "prli.-.ip'e of Divine arrunge ment that sowing shall bring reaping, and that it shall be of the same char noter as the th lug sowed.

But those who seek, to please their own fleshly minds or those of friends or relatives, will mu kc proportionately less progress along splrltunl 'lines.

"Pilate saith unto them, What then shalt I do unto Jesus, who <* called Christi" - Fer?? ?. HS early as possible in the uiorn , lng, the chief priests hurried Jesus to the Praetorium, the judgment-hall of Tila te. Ho man Governor of Judea. LMIate in quired as to what charge they had against Jesus. They evasively an swered that He was worthy of pun ishment, else they would not accuse Him. Pilate reminded them thal un der the Uoman usage they had great liberty In dealing with all disputes of a religious kind, and that, therefore they should settle the case themselves. The priests responded that they hilt! no power to Inflict the death penalty, thus revealing that they had dellher ately plotted to have Pilate put an innocent per son to death. Then they accus ed Jesus of per verting the na tion-telling the people not to pay taxes to Caesar and claiming to be the Jewish King -Messiah. These were serious charges, which Pilate was ' bound to consider, and were totally different from those brought against Jesus nt the Sanne drin.trial; Jesus made no defense: for He knew, that the time had come fri? Him to die. He would not attempt to turn aside that which He knew to be a part of the Divine Program for Him Jesus Before Pilate and Herod. Another account tells that Pilate per ceived thut the "chief priests and. the Scribes were moved with envy lu mak ing their charges. But he must not appear to treat lightly the charges re specting another king than Caesar. Ile therefore questioned Jesus; hut recelv* lng no reply, he went out to the Scribes and Pharisees, who had refrained from entering the Praetorium because the Passover season had begun. After hearing them, apparently he returned auu asked Jesus, "Art Thou the King of the Jews?" Jesus inquired whether the question was based upon Pilate's knowledge of Ills teachings or wheth er upon the assertion of His enemies. Pilate replied that tho chief men of Jesus' own nation had delivered Ulm. and that ho"wishod to know the cause of their opposition. J?S"HS answered that His Kingdom was not of this world-order of things. He was not. therefore, in conflict with Caesar. Pilate questioned Him a little further, and then went forth to the Jews, to whom he said, "I find no crime in Him." The chief priests were alarmed. They vehemently charged that Jesus was stirring up the.people; and thut. beginning away off in Gali lee, He had preached everywhere. When Pilate heard this, he sent Je sus to Herod, king of Galilee, who was ?it his palace in Jerusalem. Herod had heard many things respecting Je sus, and was curious to see Him do some m?mele. Jesus made no reply to the king's questions. The chief priests ind the Scribes accused Jesus violent ly to Herod, who sent Him back to Pilate, after having, with his soldiers, mocked our Lord and put upon Him a jorgeous robe. This act of deference >D Pilate's part, and Herod's return of :he courtesies, bridged over an enmity between the two. Neither Pilate Nor Herod Condemned. Ou severn I occasions Pilate had re eased prisoners in honor of the Pass >ver. The multitude cheered bim and uquired whether he would release tome prisoner that year. iThinking to jet Jesus out of the bands of the chief priests. Pilate asked the people, "Whom .viii ye that I release unto you, Ba -nbbas. the highwayman, or Jesus, vho is called Christ?" Incited by their .eliglous leaders, the multitude do nanded the release of Burabbas. Pilate remonstrated, declaring that ie found no cause of death in Jesus, whom he would chastise and then release. Jesus was therefore de livered over to the Roman sol diers, who were only too willing to mock and to scourge Him. Shortly after ward, Pilate brought Him orth to the waiting multitude. Wear ?g the purple robe and a crown of horns, Jesus stood before them. Pilate theil said. "Behold the Man!" ee Him whom you are trying to have ie put to death. He is one of the na lest specimens of humanity. Behold he beautiful dignity of His character. Whatever you have against Him, you pill feel placated when you see His umillty. Put they cried. "Crucify Him!". Pl ate again remonstrated. Then they ame to the root of the mattel-that esus bad declared Himself to be tho on of God, an assertion which they onstdered blasphemy. This made Ti ite all the more afraid. He thought gain to release Jesus. But the Jews erslsted. Finally Pilate yielded, saying in des eratlon, "I am innocent of the blood T this righteous - man!" They cried. His blood he upon us and our chil ien:" ' And for more than eighteen Int n rles it bas. been so. Jesus Before Pilate. Povnp^y H.
