They are thus Indi rectly telling their peoplo that there was no fall from God's Image and like ness, that there was no sin committed, no sentence for sin, no ltedeeiner from sin and Us sentence and that Restitu tion Is not to be hoped for.? Acts 111. 19-2t. Humility a Character Foundation. The parable of a man with a beam In his eye trying to pick a mote out of his brother a eye was a forceful meth od whereby the Master Inculcated the necessity of humility. Humility is a foundation virtue. The I^atin word for Jltitnility is humus, ground. This implies that It is the- soil out of which other1 virtues are produced. Those who think they know everything can learn nothing. How beautiful It is to realize that Jesus was humble and that all the holy angels are so! Grape* Off a Bramble Bush, While the Scriptures forbid God's poople to Judge one another, they do commend to us another kind of Judg ing. While not condemning the heart we are to Judge of the outward con duct The parable which our Lord in this lesson gives respecting the gath ering of grapes from bramble bushes illustrates this point God's people are '.likened to the grape-vine, which pro duces no thorns but luscious clusters of fruit Mankind In general are lik ened to bramble bushes, ready to In jure, on the slightest provocation, and aro merely self-sustaining. We are to distinguish between such characters and God's people: "By their fruits shall ye kritawr them." It is said that at times a bramble bush Is entirely covered by a vine so that the gra|>es appear^ to be coming from the bush. However, we ure not to l>e mistaken. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruitage, neither can an injurious tree bring forth good fruitage. The lesson Is that those who are really God's poople must Ik? fruit bearing else they are none of His. It is therefore useless for any <inan to tell us that he has given his heart to the Lord In ful ness of COIlHOCTlltlon nnd (hat ho has re col vod I ho sanctify lug lutluences of I ho ; Holy Spirit and yot | (ind him rojoiciny ?
