Wednesday night at the North Ave
nue Presbyterian church Dr. Howard
Agnew Johnston preached a very pow
erful and Impressive sermon on "Love's
Challenge," using the incident whore
our Lord asket^ Peter three times,
"Lovest thou me more than these 7”
He said that "in those tfiree questions
with which we are familiar, and yet
some of u» perhaps are not familiar
with the real character of those ques
tlon*. fnr th** popular lnt*rpr**t.'it|on
about that dialogue is certainly inade
quate. The vvldeHproiul interprvtatlon Is
that Jesus practically asked the same
question three times and Peter an
swered three times, assuring Christ
that he did love Him, but the dialogue
Is ^*ry different from that. In the 13th
chapter of 1st Corinthians we have a
divine definition of love as It ifc de
scribed nowhere else and you may
know that the Greek noun translated
love In this 13th chapter Is an unfa
miliar noun in the GreAk and It was a
word to express the highest form of
love."
Then Dr. Johnston went on to say
that this was the word Christ used n
the first two questions, and Peter, in
answering. used the more ordinary
word, .d/noting a lower form of love,
saying: "Lord, Thou knowest that I
love Thee.” In the third question
Christ descended to this lower word
and asked Peter if he loved Him this
way, and it was this that broke Pe
ters heart, and when answered, then
Christ said: "Well. Peter, go out and
prove it. Prove that you love Me—
feed My lambs." In hi* closing appeal
Dr. Johnston said: "You wifi remem
ber that toward the end of the dark
ness. when Christ was crucified. He
cried: ‘I thirst.' Now. I am sure that
