INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON FOR FEB. 24
CHRISTIAN (GROWTH ‘ ^
j; John 1:40-42; Matthew 16:15-18; John 21:15-19; 2 Peter 3:18a \ j
REV. SAMUEL D. PRICE, DU. ^
Ideals arc to be actualized in order to make them practical. We have
now bail seven lessons in this quarter which present great truths in the
Christian religion. Today we observe how these facts can be wrought into
real life. Peter is chosen as the special exaifiple. At the beginning he
was quite like the average fisherman on Galilee. His human nature is
evident throughout and thus he becomes the more helpful to us. ,
In addition to the passages of Scripture indicated in our heading, the
following are also to he studied in the present research: Luke 2:40-52;
Ephesians 4:11-16; Philippians 1:6, 9-11; 3:12-16; Colossians 1:9-11;
Hebrews 6 :1-3. These topical lessons lave an added value because they
require constant reference to the Bible. v i
Andrew is the man who introduces us to Simon, his brother. Both
John and Andrew were follows of-John the Baptist until Jesus came.
They then turned to the superior Teacher. Andrew is convinced that
Jesus is tin long ItMikcd for Messiah after spending the day with Him,
At once he seeks out his own brother and tells the startling news. Sim«m
Clones to observe and ends with an open friendship for the Nazarene who
prophetically of his work ami gives him the name of Peter, a
Rock, signifying the nature of the work he will carry forward in estab
lishing the Kingdom on earth*.
Some months later Peter is among the goodly number who are called
to l>ccomc disciples, which means learners. Later he was selected as one
of the Twelve and styled an apostle—one sent forth. Thin real schooling
began for the work that was to consume the rest of his life. He joined a
teacher training class, with Jesus as the Master Teacher. After about
two and a half >ears of general and intensive instruction a quiz class
was held at Caesarea Philippi when Jesus asked the blunt question “Who
do men say that the Son of man is?” Though the answer may have been
quickly phrased it was the result of much meditation. Boldly Peter an
swered "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.” At once the
Teacher commends him for this reply which announces the full divinity
of this despised Man of Nazareth.
Living up to great ideals and truth is another matter. Peter failed
completely on lhe night of the crucifixion, though he had just boasted that
he would champion the l^ord even unto death. As soon as the cock crew
Peter re-cfcuUulu.d hu thinking, tluMigh remorse was unbounded. It re
mained for Jesus to recommission him after the resurrection. This was
done after the miraculous draught of fishes at Galilee. Three times Peter
was asked, “Loxcst thou me,” and each time a positive answer was given.
C hristian growth had Ugun once more. The fullness of his spiritual
strength is manifested when Peter preached that sermon that obtained 3.000
converts on the Day of Pentecost. In one of his epistles Peter wrote, as
in our (>oldcn Text, “But grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and
Saviour Jesus Christ.”

Hours in a colorful kitchen fly by
on magic wings! So what is to pre
vent our turning dead-white cabinets
into attractive shelves of ivory or
dove gray lined with a soft, rich
orange shade, or some other favorite
color that harmonizes with the floor
covering and woodwork?
Then the crockery. One by one, out
go t£e upi^teresjing specimens and in
fome odd-shaped pieces that are pretty
with our orange linings—say moss
green crocks; several in the little-
brown-jug color ; perhaps a piece or
two in a deep orange-red tone.
This transformation fron\ thfc drab,
characterless kitchen to the vivid,
cheerful one is such a simple little
trick to perform after all.
