INTIMATE FELLOWSHIP WITH
CHRIST
LESSON TEXT-John 14 Id, 1218:
MEMORY SELECTION—Ys are my
trlMds, if ys do whatsoever I command
you.—John 15:14. . .
The hour had come for our Lord’s
final intimate words with his dis
ciples. It was Indeed a tolema. but
also a blessed, hour.
It was the night before the dark
est day in the world’s history. On
the morrow the Son of man was to
hang on Calvary’s tree for the sins
of the world—for your sins and for
mine. But for the moment he was
.alone with his disciples.
“The last Passover had been eaten
together, the betrayer had been dls
covered, and the Lord has told them
that be was soon to go where they
could not follow. Peter had, by his
bold self-assurance, brought forth
the prophecy of his denial.
The ^sciples were disturbed in
heart and mind. Then came from
the Saviour’s lips the words of com
fort, assurance and power which
have been the strength and solace
of his people through all the cen
turies. Our life both here and here
after is in his mighty hands.
Wa learn in this precious portion
of Scripture that
L The ChriaUan Need Net Be
Fea]rM (14:1-61.
That Is indeed a good word—a
needed word! Troubled hearts are
everywhere—in the palace and in
the cottage, on land-, in the air and
on the sea. There is a place of
rest, thank God! There Is One who
still speaks the majestic words,
“Let not your heart be troubled,
belfeve In God, believe also In
me.” ■ ,
His comfort is one which covers
the future life, for he says, “I go
to prepare a place’’ (v. 2). Concern
about future destiny is settled at
once when Christ Jesus becomes
our Lord and Saviour. We need
worry no longer. He has gone on
before to the Father’s house tq pre
pare a place for his own. When we
come to that ever-peaceful shore
we shall'not come as strangers, but

SOAP 18 TOOTH CLEANSER

It was developed during the war

U. S. army.
'as sons ana dau^hiei*! W‘a pft-
pared place in .otir Father’s house.
His words, 'T will come again”
(V. 3). gives present .meaning to th«
future promise. He not only pye-,
pared the place, but be it is who
brings us there. The glorious hope
oi his coming again is the Chris
tian’s greatest comfort and might
iest Incentive to usefuL holy living.
n. Tita Christlaa Need Net Be
PvwerleM (14:12-15).
Christ’s followers are not here In
a world of sin and need as a little
group of hymn-singing weaklingiK
thinking only at the day when they
shall be in a brighter land. Ah. yes.
they sing hymns and rejoice in
them; they look for a better land;
their weapons of warfare are not
carnal. But weaklings? Oh, no! God
uses them to do great and mighty
thlnga for hia glory.
Note the blessed words of Jesus,
“He that believeth on me” (v, 12).
The anhy of God carries the royal
banner of faith in a living Christ
“Greater works . . shall he do”
(V. 12). Jesus only began his work
on earth; its greatest development
was to be the Joyous privilege of his
followerA We are ashamed that we
have not lived up to this great prom
ise, but by his grace we will do bet
ter.
“If ye ask ... I will do” (v. 14).
Someone has called this a signed
blank check.on all the resources of
God.
m. The Christian Need Not Be
DUtreised (14:16-18).
The Holy Spirit promised by
Christ as the abiding comforter,
earn* so to abide in the believer on
tte day of Pentecost (Acts 2).
The ministries of the Holy Spirit
are many, but here the emphasis
is on his work as Comforter. What
a bltsaed and beli:^ ministry, and
how much needed by distressed and
disturbed souls! The (3iristlan may
count on him — imd not be dis
tressed.
IV. The ChrlstlkB Need Net Be
Detached (15:14).
What Is worse than the feeling
that one does not belong to. any
one else, that one la a detached
Individaall That la never true of
the believer in Christ We are as
close to him as the branch is to the
vine. We are in him.
Christ is the vine, and the be
liever as a true branch ia united
with him. 'There is a oneness here
which is difficult to express, but de
lightful to receive and believe. He
who is the vine needs no cleansing,
but the branch needs constant, daily
purification by the word. Are we
permitting Gh^’s Word to. keep ua
clean? Only if we are reading it
studying it meditating upon it
There is, moreover, a severer type
of purging to which the hiuband-
man subjects the vine that it may
bear more richly, and that ia prun
ing (v. 2).
Some branches must be out away
altogether and burned (v. 6). They
lack the evidence of life — fruit-
beer Ing—and must -be dektroyed.
