LESSON FOR JANUARY 2'
THE ASCENDING LORD.
LESSON TEXT-Acts 1:1-14.
GOLDE'N TEXT-When he ascended on
gh, be led captivity captive, and gave
tfs unto nen.-Eph. 4:8.
More and more we are convinced
iat the great trouble with Christiais
that the life of Jesus for them closes
ith the gospels. *We seem to fail to
mprohend that he is living today as
uch and even more than he was nine
en hundred years ago. The Book of
cts is a continuation of the Gospels
r. 1), and is yet a closed book.
I. The Proof of the Resurrection,
P. 1-3. (1) Its reality. No better
oved event is recorded in history
an the resurrection (see I Cor. 15:4
; it stands absolutely unchallenged.
lie all suflicient proof was that during
orty days" his disciples had talked
ith him concerning the kingdom.
ote, it was only his disciples who
)held, his enemies never saw him af
r Calvary. (2) Its burden. Just be
re his ascension Jesus (v. 2) gave his
sciples definite instructions, com
andments (Matt. 28:19, 20, etc.) (a)
tarry in Jerusalem, (b) to be clothed
ith power. (c) to go forth and to pro
aim or herald his gospel. During
ose intervening days of waiting for
e endowment with power they alone
iew the gospel and men were perish
g, which gives point to the necessity
receiving the spirit before under
king the work ot witnessing.
II. The Promise of the Father, vv.
B. Read carefully Joel 2:28, Isa.
:3, and compare with Luke 24:49,
id also the words of the Baptizer,
uke 3:16. (1) To receive the Holy
pirit is an obligation upon all, they
ere "charged not to depart from Je
isalem" (v. 4) (See also Eph. 5:18).
>) The reception is to be preceded
r repentance for sifthough the con
ssion of sin and the acknowledgment
Christ as Savior is only possible
trough the spirit (I Cor. 12:3). (c)
ith the spirit comes power, author
y (v. 7). This power is of God, it is
>iritual, it is not "temporal" nor of
te church. The kingdom is a spirit
al idea (Luke 17:21) and the vice-re
ent of that kingdom is the Holy
pirit. The program of Jesus is
Spirit-filled men as witnesses" and

ie of Jesus (v. 8) suggested to the
isciples the restoration of Israel to
A place among the nations and in his
aply he intimates that such is a pos
lbility (see Isa. 1:25-27, Ezek. 36:23
3, Hosea. 3:4, 5, Joel 3:16-21, Amos
:11-15), but in a most emphatic man
er he tells them that of that hour
od has reserved to himself the
nowledge (Matt. 24:36, Mark 3:22).

SPORTIVE CAREER NEAR END
Mr. PipwliIlow Was in Position to
Prophesy With Confidence as
to Kitty's Future.
Mr. Pipwillow looked at his gar
den, shooic 'his flat at the neighbor's
cat, then, humming a hymn of feline
hate, made his way to the nearest
drug store.
Ten minutes later he was temptibg

"I suppose it is," said Pipwillow,
gently, as tabby was purring over the
saucer. "Perhaps yours has nearly
finished his training gallops. I
wouldn't be surprised if lie's doing
his last lap now!"
FARMER WAS NOT IMPRESSE&
Visit to Country Editor Resulted in
Willie's Turning From the Paths
of Literature.
Into the room of a country editor
came a bluff old farmer with his
eighteen-year-old son.
"I've come for a little information,
sir," he said hopefully.
"I shall be delighted to do what I
can for you." was the polite reply.
"Well, this son of mine wants to
go into the literary business, and #0
thought you would be able to tell us
if there was any money in it. It's
a good line, isn't it?"
"Ye-e-es," replied the editor, he -
tatingly. "I've been at it myself or
a good many years and-" -
. The farmer thereupon lo ed
around at the shabby office an ion
at the shabbier editor.
"Come on, Willie," lie f"' rdered.
"Back to your plowing, my XI!"

Pat's one trouble was lthat he could

"There, now, Mrs. Jones," said he
triumphantly, as he unwrapped a huge
bell, "and what d'ye think o' that
now?"
"Goodness, man!" exclaimed the
surprised landlady. "Whatever are
you wanting with that great thing?"
As he tucked the bell under his
arm and prepared to go upstairs, Paff
replied, with a knowing grin:
"Sure, and I'm going to ring -it at
six o'clock ivry morning and wake

He Meant Business.
