Concerning Censorious Judgments <vt. M2). 1. The sin and folly of (vv. 1-5). H * This prohibition should not be so construed as to forbid our making an eatlmate of the lives of those about us. for “by their fruits -ye shall know them.” Neither should it prevent us from administering rebuke to those who deserve It. It is not wrong to con demn the errors and faults of those who are in the way of sin. It does not mean that sin should go unrebuked until we ourselves are perfect It re bukes readiness to blame others and to magnify their weakness and error. 2. The duty of discrimination In dealing out holy things (v. 6). The Gospel should be preached to all. We should turn from those who reject and treat with contempt the Gospel message. &. Qualification for discrimination (w. 7-12). (1) A life of prayer (rv. 7-11). Only those ars able to rightly divide the word of truth who live a life of prayer. (2) A disposition to treat others as one would be treated (v. 12). It Is not merely to refrain from doing Injury, l>ut positively to do for others that which we would desire to have done unto ourselves under similar circun>- stances. No man can live this rule un less be has been born from above and abides with Christ II. Entrance Into the Kingdom Urged (vv. 13, 14). There are two ways only before each one—life and death, heaven and hell. The narrow gate Is the way of life. While the gate Is strait and the way narrow, It Is an oi>en gate and the only gale to life, and all are In vited to enter. The gate which opens to every good thing In life Is strait- restricted. The way of Jesus Christ Is oot the way ot the crowd. III. Warnings Against False Teach, •ra. (vv. 1^-20). 1. Their real existence (v. 15). Ever since God lias had a people, false prophets and teachers have ap peared among them. 2. Their nature (v. 15). (1) They are hypocritical. The devil does his most successful work by masquerading as an angel of light <11 Cor. 11:14,15). His mlnisiors pear in this way and turn people from the narrow to the broad way. (2) They are destructive. This is suggested by their being ravening wolves. It Is when the wolf is in sheep's clothing that It does Its most destructive work. False teachers are doing their most deadly vork while pretending to be loyal to the Bible and Jesus Christ. 3. The unfailing test (vv. 10-18). “By their fruits ye shall know them.” Every tree hears Its own kind of fruit. One may search the universe in vain for an exception to this rule. >It Is equally true in the spiritual world —there is a vital connection between faith of heart and fruit of the life. 4. Their ultimate end (v. ID). Although God has infinite patience and bears long He will see to It that this e\ il work does not go on forever. IV. The Dangers of Empty Profes sion Jaw 21-23). 1. Merely calling Christ Lord will oot answer for doing his will (v. 21). 2. One may d'» supernatural works and not be siiveil Xvv.22-^:d_ Not aii supernatural worlds are divine. There is a supernatural world of evil. It is the business of every be liever to test the Spirit (I.John 4: 1.2). ■3. Separation from God (v. 23). 'One may have been a Sunday school 'teacher or a minister and have per formed many mighty works and yet hear from Christ the awful words, “I never knew you; depart from Me.” V. The One and Only Safe Way (vv. 24-20). 1. Hear the sayings of Christ (v. 24). To do this one must give attention to reading the Word of Cod. 2. Do what Christ commands (vv.24- 20). Hearing and doing the teachings of •Christ Is building upon solid rock. ■Hearing and not doing Christ’s sayings 4s to build upon the sand. Columbia, Feb. 4.—End of the third week cf the present session of the South Carolina general assembly found members of both houses begin ning consideration of measures that, aie expected to take up their time for a good part of the remainder of the meeting. Both houses adjourned after short sessions Friday to meet again Tues day. Public hearings on two bills, one the workmen’s compensation law of Senator R. M. Jefferies, of Colleton, and the other the revenue bill being written by a committee headed by Representative R. B. Herbert, of Rich land, will he held this week. Inter ested parties will be heard by the revenue committee Tuesday afternoon, while the committees considering the compensation measure will hear op ponents of the measure Wednesday afternoon. Pioponents were heard Wednesday of last week. Compensation Measure. A workmen’s compensation bill, similar in some respencts to that of Senator Jefferies, but providing in creased compensation for workers was introduced in the house Friday by Representative J. S. Smith, Jr., of Charleston. Representative Dowell Patterson, of Charleston, president of) the State Federation of Labor, made it plain that his organization favors no spec ial compensation bill, but will support that which is believed to be to the best interest of labor. The annual appropriation bill, car rying about $500,000 more than the total of last year’s measure, came up in the hou.-e Thursday, and despite predictions that it would go through the house without change, found con siderable opposition awaiting it. Sev eral representatives announced they had amendments to practically every section, with the prospect of reduc ing it by about $4,000,000 if all are adopted. While there is little likeli hood that the measure will be re duced by this amount, sentiment for a reduction grew in the house as members had more time to study it. Will Explain Bill. Represntat ive R. E. McCaslan, of Greenwood, chairman of the ways and means committee, which wrote the hill, said on the floor that it was counties were considered by both houses. . A joint resolution introduced in the senate Friday and iea4 for the first time, if passed, will require that of fice holders and members of the bar swear not to “purchase contraband liquor” while in office or after enter ing upon the practice of their profes sion. Before it can be addd to the oath it must be passed by both houses, given a majority vote of the people and again ratified by the general as sembly. „ * Brown and Bush in Barnwell. E. A.

Faith understand that the ;u framed by the word what Is seen bs:h not at the end of the week only the first section had been completed. Repre sentative D. L. Smith, of Colleton, had propped an amendment to the sec ond section, reducing the salaries of eleiks of the general assembly, and Representative McCaslan strongly op posed it. A vote was not taken and the section will again come up for consideration when the bill is taken up on a special order at 11 o’clock Wednesday morning. One of the most far-reaching ac tions of the house this session came when that body Thursday eliminated the 5-niill levy on real property for State purposes.
