L ESSON FOR JUNE 13
BLESSEDNESS OF FORGIVENESS.
LESSON TEXT-1salm 32.
GOLDEN TEXT-Biessed Is he whose
transgression is forgiven, whose sin is
covered-Psalm 32:1.
This psalm is believed to have
grown out of David's experience with
Nathan (see Rom. 4:6-8). ft is the
second of the seven so-called "peni
tential psalms" (6, 32, 38, 51, 102, 180,
143). While it is sad, it is at the same
time one of the most joyful of all
psalms. It is the record. of bitter sor
row and also of heartfelt praise, and
is as vital in its message 'today as the
day it was given to'the world.
I. The State or Condition of Happi
noes. (1) What Is happiness? vv.
1, 2. The blessed or happy man is the
one whose sin is covered. God only
can forgive sin and has plainly set
before us his agency, viz., the shed
blood. David as king enjoyed the
pleasures of life, but he also knew the
result of hidden sin, of gins covered.
The joy of forgiveness is offered to
all who accept God's gift of justifica
tion (Acts 10:43). The psalmist seems
to multiply words. "Transgression"
means rebellion; "sin" to miss the
mark (Rom. 3:23); "iniquity," to be
crooked. When men try to cover sin
we are expressly told the result (Prov.
28:13), but God literally takes away
when he forgives and "covers" sin
(John 1:29; Ps. 103:12; .85:2). Nei
ther man or devil can uncover what
he has covered. (2) Who Is unhappy?
vv. 3, 4. Contrasted with the state or
condition of happiness granted to the
forgiven sinner is presented that of
those unforgiven. David kept silence
without only to have a raging tempest
within-lips silent, bones "roaring."
During the days of David's silence fol
lowing his sinful act he was guilty of
increased acts of sin and cruelty (2
Sam. 12:31). The origin of the word
Selah is not known. It probably indi
cated a musical interlude and in this
psalm most appropriately and dramat
ically appears. (3) How we may be
happy, vv. 5, 6. All sin is uncovered
to God. His all-seeing eye can pene
trate man's futile endeavors to hide
his transgressions. The first step to
forgiveness and to happiness Is con
fession of guilt. God's heavy hand
wrought saving faith in David and
such faith has as its first condition
confession, "I acknowledged my sin."
Such confession is full and frank,
Nothing is held back nor has it any
element of hypocrisy, and it always
secures results (I John 1:9; Luke 15:
20-23).
The godly man, the man who is the
recipient of God's grace thus bestowed,
prays in a time "when thou mayest be
found," or (see margin) "in the time
of finding out sin" (v. 6 R. V.). The
prophet tells us that there is a time
when we may not find God (Isa. 65:6)
and Paul tells us when he may be
found (II Cor. 6:2).
ii. How to Continue in the State of
Being Happy. (1) Our security (v. 7).
When men forgive they do not "cover."
WVhat God hides he forgets (Isa. 38:17;
Micah 7:19). Our security, our "hid
ing place" is Jehovah. Our preserver
is Jehovah (Ps. 91:31; Isa. 32:1, 2).
Jehovah preserves from trouble those
whom he forgives (Ps. 34:19), Such
men have a serenity, a "peace" even
the "peace of God" which the sinner
can niever have (Isa. 26:3; Rom. 5:1;
Phil. 4:7). (2) Our instructor (vv. 8,
9). (a) Positively-we have one who
not only forgives and blots out the
past but one who has promised to
"instruct," to "teach" and to "guide."
Nearly all believe that the introduc
tion of the personal pronouns in verse
8 indicate that God is speaking in
response to David's appeal recorded in
verse 6. Jehovah guides with his "eye
upon" us (v. 8 R. V.) He instructs
us by his spirit through his Word
(Ps. 119:105; John 16:13). (b) Neg
atively--Some must needs be directed
by "bit and bridle." Some have to
learn through bitter experience. We
have our choice. Those who will not
listen to instruction are compared to
the horse andl the mule who "have no
understanding." Even so they are
more useful than those who wildly
run after sin. Only thus can some
'come near"~ (v. 9 R. V.) though that
is better than not to be brought near
at all. (3) Our faith (v. 9). What
kind of a life will God's forgiven chil
dren live? What is one of the fore
most characteristics of a happy life?
Here is the answer, "He that trusteth
in the Lord." This Is the conclusion
of the whole matter.
Our only joy is in the Lord "who
bath done marvelous things whereof
we are glad."
Christ is the incarnate mercy and
grace of God. In him we have God's
forgiveness.
lie supplies our every need (Phil.
4:19). He pardons, heals, restores, di
rects, gives power (Matt. 28:18-20).
Joy and impurity are never compan
ions. Only the pure can purify. Only
the healthy can heal. Only the right
eous and free can pardon.
"Rejoice in Jehovah! and leap for
joy, O righteous! and gladly shout all
ye upright in heart."-Maclaren.
To shout a godly and acceptable
shout demands that wre be "upright in
heart."

W. C. T. U. COLUMN
A T the recent meeting of the South
ern Baptist convention at Hous
ton, Texas, that great body adopted
strong prohibition resolutions. The
fight is now on. Let all use every ef
fort to further the cause. Read the
following extracts from a speech by
Secretary Bryan, made in the Billy
Sunday tabernacle .during last March:
"It is estimated that the people of
the United States spend almost two and
a half billion dollars annually on intoxi
cating liquors. It is difficult for the
mind to comprehend so large a sum
unless we resort to comparisons.
"The cost of the Panama canal, the
most gigantic engineering feat in his
tory, was about $400,000,000. Is it not
appalling to think that we spend for
drink every year something like six
times the costof the Panama canal?
"I have endeavored to secure an ac
curate estimate of the amountof money
spent on education in this country, and
the figure given me is $760,000,000. This
pays all the teachers who instruct the
children from the kindergarten to the
university in this land of more than
ninety million. It provides salaries for
the great intellectual army whose ines
timable service no figures can describe.
If we were to cease these expenditures
this nation, so conspicuous in all that
contributes to the civilization of the
world, would lapse into barbarism. And
yet we spend for drink more than three
times as we spend for education.
"All the governmental agencies em
ployed in administering the Federal
government of this great nation are
operated at an expense of less than
$1,250,000,000. Think, if the mind can
comprehend it, of this nation spending
twice that amount for alcoholic liquors.
"But there is an argument still more
easily understood, namely, the increas
ing demand for total abstinence which
is being made by employers. On boats
prog used to be furnmshed to sailors. It
is becoming more and more the rule to
deny it to them altogether. The
owner of a ship cannot afford to trust
passengers or cargo, or even the vessel,
to a man who allows his brain to be be
fuddled by alcohol.
"Our railroad managers are app~lying
more and more stringent rules against
drink. They cannot afford to take the
risk of either loss of life or damage to
property involved in the employment of
men who use liquor. And so on through
other industries; the , more important
the employment the more rigidly the
use of itquor is forbidden.''
