take up his cross and follow Me.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
IC—Jesus Interprets His Messiahship.
I. Peter’s Confession of Christ (vv.
27-30).
Two questions of Jesus provoked
this confession. 1. “Who do men say
that I am?” (vv. 27, 28). This ques
tion referred to the opinions of the
people regarding Jesus. Some believed
Him to be John, the Baptist, some
Rlijah, and some, one of the prophets.
They all recognized Him to be a
teacher or prophet with more than
.human authority and power. Jesus
was not content with this acknowl
edgment Had He been satisfied with
this He would not have been molested
in Jerusalem, for the Jews willingly
acknowledged Him as much more than
a human teacher. 2. “Who say ye
that I am?” (vv. 29, 39). Jesus per
sistently claimed to be the God man,
the very Son of God incarnate. He
wanted the personal opinion of the
disciples concerning Himself.
II. Jesus’ Teaching Concerning the
Cross (vv. 31-33).
Ho charged the disciples not to
make public His Messiahship as that
would precipitate the crisis. The dis
ciples had much need of instruction
yet. to prepare them for the crucial
hour of the cross.
1. What He taught (v. 31).
(1) “The Son of Man must suffer
many things." He sutTered physical
weariness and hunger, ridicule and
contempt and even misunderstanding.
(2) “Be rejected of the elders,
chief priests and scribes.” These were
the nation's official representatives,
the very ones who should have known
and received Christ and recommended
His reception on the part of the na
tion. Truly He came to His own and
His own received Him not (John 1:11).
(3) “Be killed.” This announce
ment was startling to the disciple?.
They had not yet come to realize that
redemption was to be accomplished
through the passion and the cross.
(4) “Rise again.” Though this was
utterly incomprehensible to the dis
ciples, He showed them that this
would be the glorious issue of His
death.
2. How the disciples received His
teaching (v. 32).
So unwelcome was His teaching
touching the cross that Peter, the
spokesman of the disciples, rebuked
Him. Peter later saw through this
darkness the light of glory on the
hilltops beyond (I Pet. 1:3, 4).
3. Jesus rebukes Peter (v. 33). He
told Peter plainly that his attitude
was* due to his being under the in-
tluence of the devil.
III. Jesus Going to Jerusalem to
Die (Mark 10:32-34).
Jesus went to Jerusalem with the
consciousness of the awful tragedy
the cross before Him; the treachery
of Judas, tiie fiery persecutions of the
priests, the unjust judgment, the de
livery to Pontius Pilate, the mocking,
tiie scourging, the crown of thorns,
the cross between malefactors, the
nails and the spear all were spread
before Him. He moved on to His
goal, not by external necessity but a
fixed purpose. He had not only come
“to minister but to give His life a
ransom for many.” The joyous out
look of the victory which was to be
accomplished through the shedding of
His blood led Him forward (Heb.
12:2).
IV. The Cost of Discipleship (Mark
8:34).
The law of the Christian life Is suf
fering. To follow Christ means to
turn one’s back upon the world. To
repudiate the -world means to incur
the hatred of the world; to be Chris
tians means to share Christ’s suffering.
1. There must be denial of self
(v. 34). There is a wide difference
between self-denial and denial of self.
All people pra'cti<?£ self-denial, but
only Christians deny self.
2. The croSs must be taken up
(v. 34). This means the suffering and
shame which lie in the pathway ol
loyalty to God. To live the godly life
means suffering (U Tim. 3:12).
3. Christ must be followed (v. 34)
This means to have the mind ol
Christ (Phil. 2: 5) and to perform the
service of Christ The blessed issue
of following Christ Is a life of free
dom here and now, and eternal life
hereafter.

Kellogg In Favor
Anti-War Treaty
Secretary Expresses Hope
Present Negotiations With
France W'ill Result In
Treaty Against War
NEW YORK.—Placing the Amer
ican government formally on record
in favor of an unqualified anti-war
treaty between the great powers of
the world. Secretary Kellogg said in
an address here March 16th, that if
the principal nations are united ’n a
sincere desire for such a compactv a
formula could be devised acceptable
to all.
The secretary spoke before the
Council on Foreign Relations and
took for his subject the war preven
tion policy of the United States and
the treaties and proposed treaties
wh'ch had been advanced ; n favor of
world peace.
He coupled his advocay of an an
ti-war treaty with the emphat : c
statement that the American govern
ment “will not become a party to
ar y agreement which directly or in
directly, expressly or by implication,
is a military all'ance.”
Mr. Kellogg expressed the hope
that the present negotiations with
France which have as their object
the conclusion of a general anti-war
treaty would be successful ultimate
ly. The common people of the world
were of one mind, he believed, in j
their desire to see the abolition of |
was as institution, and he peldg-
ed himself, both personally and of
ficially, always to support and ad
vocate the conclusion of appropriate
treaties for arbitartion, for consol
ation, and for the renuciation of
war.
“I must not claim ” he said “that
treaties of arbitration and- concilia
tion, or even treaties explicitly re
nouncing war as an instrument of
nr.t'onal policy afford a certain guar
anty against those conflicts between
nations which have periodically brok
en out since the dawn of history. In
addition to treaties there must be an
aroused public conscience against the mi. . - . . T

said, and treaties such as I have dis- 1
cussed, and the efforts of statesmen
to advance the cause of woild peace
can only be regarded as portion of
the problem. I am not so blind as to
believe that the millennium has ar
rived, but I do believe that the world
is making great strides toward the
pacific adjustments of international
deputes.
Explaining that in the present
treaty negotiations it was the pur
pose of the United States in so far as
possible to eliminate was as a factor
in internat onal relations, Mr. Kel
logg said the Un’ted States cannot
obligate itself in advance to use its
armed forces agjainst any other na
tion of the world. The United States
does not believe that the peace of the
world or of Europe, depends upon
or can be assured by treaties of mil
itary alliance, the fut lity of which
as guarantors of peace ; s repeatedly
demonstrated in the pages of history,
he said.
The arbitration treaty with France
recently ratified by the senate, as
well as other tieaties, were discuss
ed at length by Mr. Kellogg who
said it was diff : cult for him to see by
what claim a government could pro
perly request arbitration of disputes
covered by the four exceptions stip
ulated in the treaty, including the
Monroe Doctrine, since fewV if any,

the purpose of preventing war, con
tinued Mr. Kellogg, “and that is a
treaty in which the paities specifi
cally bind themselves not to resort to
war. It is this kind of treaty wh'ch
people have in mind when they dis
cuss treaties for outlawing war. and
it is a novel idea in modern inter
national relations.”
Outlining the proposal of the
French pienrer, Aristide Briand, for
a bilateral treaty which would con
demn recourse to war and renounce
it as an instrument of national pol
icy, Mr. Kellogg said this important
and inspiring proposal was carefully
and sympathetically studied.
“While we might well have hesi
tated to take the initiative in propos
ing such a treaty to Europe,” he
continued “the invitation from
France afforded us an opportunity to
examine anew the whole question of
world peace and to determine in
what practical manner we could best
co-operate.”
The secretary told of his sugges
tion to Fiance that the treaty be an
equivalent multilateral treaty con
cluded among the principal powers,
including besides France and the
United States. Great Britain, Germ
any, Italy and Japan. France has
agreed in principle, he said, but sug-

explaining that her obligations un
der the League of Nations and the
Locarno treaties presented certain
difficulties.
“I have not been able to agree to
that reservation,” he said. “My ob
jection to limit'ng the scope of the
anti-war treaty to mere wars of ag
gression is based partly upon very
real disinclination to see the ideal of
word ‘aggressor’ or the phrase ‘wars
of aggression.’ It is difficult for me
