Gary, of the South Carolira Supreme Court, are very small his physician announced today. His condition became serious Sunday night ard remained about the sam e today, the attending doctor said. Justice Gary who is suffering from a nervous breakdown was brought to a local hospital two weeks ago and had shown some signs of improvement but suffered a relapse Sunday. In order to grasp the story of Sam uel’s boyhood life, a survey should be made of I Samuel, ch. 1-3. I. Samuel Given in Answer to Prayer (I Sam. 1:19, 20). The name Samuel means “asked of God.” He was given to Hannah in answer to her prayers. In connec tion with her asking this gift from God, she V.owed to give him to God. He was to be therefore a Nazarite all the days of his life. II. Samuel Given to the Lord (I Sam. 1:24-28). For a time he was cared for by his mother in the home. The "best nurse and teacher for a child is iis mother. According to her vow when she asked the Lord for this child, at an early age she took him to the sanctuary and gave him over to the charge of Eli. ttfe priest, to minister in the sanctuary. III. Features of Israel's History In This Period <2j12-36). 1. The demoralized priesthood. (1) They were actuated by greed (2:12-rf). It was God's will that those who ministered at the altar should live or the things of the altar, but they broke through the divine regulations touch ing this matter, even to securing their selfish ends by force. (2) Gross Immorality (2:22). The courts of God'a house were thus polluted. The condition of the na tion was most appalling: Degradation and ruin follow rapidly when God'a ministers are under the sway of lost and greed. 2. An alienated people (2:80-32). Their sins separated them from God. God's holiness Is each that those who practice sin are alienated from Him. 3. The cessation of divine revela tion (3:1). The Word of God was precious In those days. “There ’was no open vision.' - This shows that God was silent. The message from the Lord was more a memory then s present experience. The earne thing In prin ciple is true of the Individual life today. Some who once enjoyed fel lowship with God no longer bear His voice s|teaklng to there. IV. God Called Samuel (3:2-10). * In striking contrast with the de generacy of the nation, we have be fore us the beautiful life of Samuel. Dwelling within the sacred courts and ministering before the Lord with Ell Is the Innocent Samuel who la become the savior of hla people. In Samuel we have a striking pattern of child re ligion. The Lord gave him In answer to Hannah's prayer. From his birth he was dedicated to the Lord. While quite young bis mother took him to the sanctuary of the Lord where he served and alept. Two trails in Sam uel's character stand out In this call, namely, hla cheerful obedience to the Lord’s call and his surrendered wilL He expressed bis willingness before be knew what was required. He did not inquire what was wanted and then let his obedience depend upon Its suiting him. We should believe that the Lord knows what is heat and be willi'a: to yield glad obedience to Hie commands. V. Samuel's First Prophetic Mes sage (3:11-18). Up to this time Samuel obeyed the one who waa| over him, but the time had now come when he must directly hear and obey the Lord. The first message entAisted to him was a most terrible one. To deliver it was a most trying task. He hesitated to tell it to Ell, but when pressed by him be man ifested the true courage which was lying back of his fear. It must have been a bitter experience to Eli to see Samuel recognized and himself passed by, but he was submissive. He knew that the slight was just. He could not fail to interpret It thus in view of the appearance of the man of God to him (2:27-36). This fearful visitation upon Eli’s house was due to the sins of his sons. He was held accountable for not restraining them. VI. Samual Established in the Prophetic Office (3 :19-21). ‘'“And Samnel grew and the Lord was witlF him ami did let none of His words fall to the ground and all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prpphet of the Lord."
