GOLDEN TEXT-Create in me a clean heart 0 God.-Psalm 61:10. This is a lesson that demands great care in its presentation ind treatment, which will differ widely according to age. For the younger the briefest sort of statement that David fell in love with Uriah's wife and to obtain her had her husband killed will be suffi cient. With sueh, throw the emphasis upon the danger of harboring evil thoughts and the need of heart purity (tee Golden Text). With adults, however, some time may be devoted to the social evil which is such a menace to every na tion, care being taken lest the discus sion become morbid, or that we neglect to emphasize the fact that the cure is not in regulation or reformation but in the regeneration of the human heart. 1. David's Many Good Deeds, i Samuel, 7 and 9. As a background for his' most repulsive sin David had a long list of excellent deeds. His de sire for a better abiding place for the ark was not according to God's will for two reasons: first, that an ornate house might easily corrupt, through idolatry, the spirtuality of the Hebrew religion; second. David was a man of war and therefore not qualified for temple building. Though denied, David did not despair, but at once provided that his successor carry out his desire. 11. David's One Great Sin, il Sam uel, 11:6. David's victories over his enemies are dismissed in a few verses, yet his sin is set forth in de tail-another evidence of the divine origin and inspiration of the Bible. David had followed the example of neighboring kings and taken to him. self many wives, evidently regarding his fancy as supreme and himself as above the law. David was "off guard" in the matter of temptation, a danger ous position for all,' both soldier and civilian. David had had too long and too great a period of success and pros. perity after his long period of priva tion, and this led to carelessness and pride. David was "off duty," indulg Ing in ease while Joab did his fighting As a result he became an adulterei and a murderer, and the record in nc way seeks to palliate his guilt. Froi all this the record brings to us man: important lessons. Outwardly pros perous and his army successful, Dix vid must have felt in his heart th< spiritual blight in the words, "but th thing was evil in the eyes of th( Lord" (v. 27 R. V.); no psalm wril ing then. lit. Nathan's Parable, il. Samuel 12:1-7. It Is an nyidence of God'i grace that ho sent his servant to re buke and restore this "man after hii own heart." Such is his mercy, foi he does not will that any should per ish but that all might come to thi knowvledge of forgiveness (Ezekie 33.11; Matthew 23:37). No parabli ever had its desired effect more quick ly than this one. It brought convictioi and repentance (v. 13) and led to th< writing of the fifty-first psalm. It wal a delicate task set before Nathan thui to rebuke the king, yet it reveals th< essential nobleness of David in tha he did not become angry. Nathan' task and his wisdom are revealed i1 his approach and in the way he lei David to condemn, unwittingly, hi own course of action. This was bet ter than to begin by upbraiding an4 denunciation. Verse two suggests, in ferentially, God's great goodness ti David, which made the offense one o gross ingratitude. IV. Thou Art the Man"-v. 7a. Thui far the -stopry is one all too common then and now, of the strong crushinj the weak and glorying in their selfisli ness. What follows is the evidenc< of God's response to man's repentance tlie parallel to which has nowhere else been found in the ancient world. Th< glory of it is that David heard an< heeded God's messenger. The wholi sordid story with its resultant actio1 on lhavid's part brings us many pricE less lessons. (1) That man who hai lived -a life of faith and communiou fell most miserably when he neglectei his duty and took his eyes off God There is a grave danger ahead of thi man who begins to trifle with sin ( Cor. 10:12). (2) Though a man fal (the godly man) yet ho is not utterl: cast down. There is pardon for th4 vilest sinner and the most abjec backslider. David's murderous handi and sin-stained soul found pardor (Ps. 32 and 51). (3) A~ man's sins though he may find pardon, will clouc all of his future. David felt it in his own life and fain ily; both daughter and sons felt iti blight (see chapter 13), and it broughi forth David's immortal lament oveu Absalom. David's trusted friend joined the son's rebellion and caused David greal sorrow (see 11:3; 23:34; 15:21 anc Ps. 55:12-14). A human book would cover up, omli or seelt to palliate such an act by one of the great of the earth (cf. the story of Napoleon and Josephine), yei the Bible tells all the facts to serv< as a warning and to reveal God'u matchlqss grace and mercy.
