The Walk of Two Discouraged Disciples (vv. 13-15). Eniraaus was seven and a half miles northwest of Jerusalem. Just why they were walking this way we do not surely know. Perhaps their home was there, or they were merely walking to seek relief from their stunning sorrow. If they had believed what Jesus told them about His death and resurrec tion they would have escaped this great disappointment. The topic of conversation was the tragedy of the cross and the resurrection rumors. If they had believed what He said about coming' forth from the grave they would have been expecting to hear Just such reports afe were being circulated. II. Ths Unrecognized Companion (w. 16-24) „ L Who He Was—Jesus (v. 15). While they reasoned together on th« wonderful events of the last few days Jesus joined them. Even when He questioned them concerning their sad ness they did. not recognize Him. Many times we are so taken up with, our sorrows and disappointments that we do not recognize Jesus walking by our side. 2. His Question (v. 17). \ Perceiving their sadness and per\ plexitles. He sought to help by calling forth a statement of their grief. 3. Their Answer (v. IS). His question so surprised them that they Jumped at the conclusion that Ht was a stranger In Jerusalem, for the condemnation and crucifixion of the great Prophet of Nazareth were so re cent and notorious that no one that had lived in Jerusalem could be Igno rant of them. One valuable feature of the unbelief of the disciples was that it revealed the fact that they were not credulous enthusiasts, but hard to convince. Out of this incredu lity of the disciples developed un shaken faith in Christ’s resurrection. ill. The Scripture* Opened (vv. 25- 31). 1. His Rebuke (vv. 25-30). He did not rebuke them for not be lieving the strange stories that they had heard, but for ignorance and lack of confidence in the Old Testament Scriptures. They had only accepted such parts of the Old Testament as suited their notions. Men and women who do not believe all that the Scrip tures say about the work of the blessed Savior are entirely blameworthy. The very center and heart of the Old Tes tament Scriptures set forth the death and resurrection of Christ. It is ig norance of the Scriptures and unbelief of the wonders uml complete redemp tion wrought by Christ that robs us of many Joys, and power and efficiency as workers for Christ. 2, Jesus Recognized (vv. 31-35). While sitting at meat with the dis ciples their eyes were opened a« they saw Him bless the bread and distribute it to them. We, too, can see the Lord on such common occasions as eating a meal, If we have open eyes. Indeed we ought to see Him when eating, selling, buying and In our recre ations, for He has promised us Hts presence. They were so filled with Joy over this revelation of the Savior that they hastened back to Jerusalem to tell the other disciples of His res urrection. IV. Jesus Stands in the Midst'of the Eleven (vv. 36-47). 1. He said, “Peace be unto you" (vv. 36-47), but they were terrified and af frighted. Sinful man In the presence of God Is 111 at ease. 2. He showed them His hands and His feet (vv. 38-40). In order to con vince them of His personal identity He gave them tangible evidence that He was not a mere spirit. 1 3. He ate before them (vv. 41-45). 4. He commissioned them to evangel ize the .world (vv. 46-49). They were to testify -concerning His shed blood and resurrection, and oh this ground they were to preach re pentance and remission of sins to all nations. V. Jesus Ascends Into Heaven (vv. 50-53). Having given them the parting mes sage to evangelize the world. He as cended Into heaven. Just as we treas ure the last words of our departed loved ones so we should ponder 'this farewell message of the Lord. illilllllli Management-Policies Facilities it —not just bigness or age—determine the character of a bank’s service, and denote its stability.
