"I suffered from indigestion for a
long time. Last May I almost died.
The doctor told me It was acute Indi
gestion and I could not bo cured. Since
that time I have suffered very much
as some days everything I ate. even
light food, as soft boiled egga, would
distress me. I lost fifteen pounds.
Sometimes I felt that I could not live
another day. A month ago I got a
box of MI-O-NA tablets. Before I had
used them a week I was better. I
have used two boxes and I feel as well
as I ever did." Eunice A. Peters, Jack

Bcott, D. D.)
The Old Law and the New Life.
Matt, v: 17-26.
Golden Text?He that loveth his
neighbor hath fulfilled the law. Rom.
xlll.8.
(1.) Verses 17-18?In what sense
did Jesus mean that the law was not
to be destroyed until all be fulfilled?
(2.) What, If any, reason is there
to believe that Jesus did not mean
that the law of MoBes was to last
forever?
(3.) How did Christ fulfill every "Jot
and tittle" of the law of Moses, spir
itual, moral, political and ceremonial?
(4.) Verse 19.?What was the final
end, purpose or object of the com
mandments of Mo*es?
(5.) If a disciple of Christ at that
time had taught against the least of
the Old Testament commandments,
what would he have lost thereby?
(6.) If a disciple of Christ now
teaches against thw keeping of the
ceremonial law or the moral law as
exemplified by the "eye for an eye"
and the "tooth for a tooth" command
ments of the Old Testament, how does
God regard him?
(7.) Verso 20?What did Christ mean
by "the righteousness of the scribes
and Pharisees?"
(8.) If a man does an outward good
deed for the sake of custom or policy
or to be seen of men that he would
not do from his own choice, how Is
his deed regarded by God?
(9.) How would you characterize
two men, one whose motives are pure,
but who blunders in carrying them
out, and one whose motives are im
pure, but who acts outwardly In a
faultless. manner? ?
(10.) Does righteousness consist in
motives or in actions, and why! (This
is one of the questions which way be
answered In writing by members of
the club.)
ML) VerBes 21-22?The law of Mos
es, like human law now, could only
punish when an outward crime had
actually been committed. How dees
the law here given by Jesus differ
from that?
(12.) If a man secretly plans a mur
der and lacks the opportunity of com
mitting it he is innocent nt law.
Would you say that he is just as
guilty before God as if he had com
mitted it? Why?
(13.) Does Christ teach that wicked
anger or hatred is regarded by God
as murder, and, If not, what does he
mean? (See I John 111:15.)
(14.) What does Jesus here mean by
the various degrees of punishment
represented by the ""judgment," the
"council" and "hell fire?"
(15.) Verses 23-26?Why Is it impos
sible to worship or be In harmony
with God if we bear a grudge against
any person?
