THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN.
THE WORD MADE FLESH
By REV. DR. JAMES W. LEE,
Pastor Trinity Methodist Church
u: birth of Chrtat marked the
pronla* made before the worlds
beginning of the fulfilment of a
framed. Toward thla moment,
< had been shaping themaelvea
le-glnnlng. The divine pur-
>aa to continue Its upward muve-
!. now, entering the circle of
atural law* of man. Above and
it, It had been at work since the
ranee of the first man on earth,
lining, training, stimulating, re
in*, but now It waa to enter the
life of man, and to identify II-
rlth the fortunes of the human
rt taking the form of ilesh, and
ng In It. It was a great and
time, for It waa the trying period
Il.'h everything waa seeming to
. and yet everything waa about
reborn. It was the proclamation
doom of the old order anti of the
dam, and the living, breathing,
rrlng commencement of the new
the new man and a new aeeetea
nan beings. A fresh and heautl-
d divine edition of humanity was
Issued. The literature of heaven
> be translated Into the language
th. The Infinite waa to lie do-
ated In terms of the finite. The
ity was taking the form of weak-
Tlie Illimitable was coming with-
Ite. The glory that encomiiasaed
anger converting a fraction of
night Into the beginning of perfect
day, waa but She glow which (famed
from the entrance of the Son of Right-
eooeneM Into the atmosphere and limi
tations of time and aenae. The patient
and long-suffering and loving Gml,
omniscient, omnipotent and eternal.
wna entering the sln-cur.ed, diseased
and wretched territory of humanity
through the cradle. The church has
done well to emphasize the surrlflre
of the Hon on the cross, but many have
overlooked the sacrifice of Che Hon In
entering humanity through the man
ger. Tha whole movement of God In
< hrlst was a seH-llmltatlon—a sarrl-
slon from the Mount of Olives,
flee, a self-emptying, from the birth of
the Savior In Bethlehem to His uaren-
W'i' have dwelt so much on the fart
that t'hriat died .for us that w# have
almost been In danger of forgetting
that He was born for us, was a child
In ills mother's arms for us, was a boy
questioning the doctors In tha temple
for us. W'e think of His death aa
vicarious, when. In fact, the whole pro
gram Ood purposed In fhrlst to work
out and complete was vicarious. He
wrought with His hands In Jossph's
workshop for us. tie was baptised In
the Jordan for us. He discoursed with
the Hamarttan woman at Jarob's well
for us. He delivered the first sermon
in Nazareth for us. He attended the
wedldiut IB I 'nna of Galilee, and by His
presence lent to It color and Infinite
attractiveness for us. He saw the
lilies and admired their beauty for us.
He took dinner with Zaccheus in Jeri
cho for us. Everything He did, every
worrl He uttered, every prayer He
breathed was for us. The birth was
the beginning of a process that ended
In Its earthly and temporal aspects
with the ascension. It Is true that
Christ was crucified only once, but In
leaving His home at the right hand
of the Father and coming Into the
narrow realm of our guilty Imprisoned
life He had the spirit of crucifixion. 8t.
Paul said of himself a* the disciple of
Ida f,ord: "I am crucified w|th Christ;
I die dally.” It was on Calvary that
our lord finished Ills work. Hut all
the stages which led op to this crown
ing point of His sufferings, were con
tributory to the general work of the
atonement.
There Is not a single square Inch of
the entire surface of life that the re
conciling work of Christ, from the cra
dle to the cross, does not touch. Whsn
Christ assumed human life He took
upon Him the whole reach and sweep
of It. He assumed It In Ita domestic
aspects, Its business aspects. Its polit
ical aspects. Us Intellectual and es
thetic aspects. Christ Is to be the Ha-
vlor and companion of the man at
play, as well as of the man on tils
dying bed. He sanctifies birth and
crowns old age with the glorious hope
of immortality. He la not simply re-

lated to men aa a sinner. He Is also
related to him In all the relations and
work and'studies of his multitudinous
being. He does not' simply Inspire
loved ones to carve on his tomb the
symbol of victory, but Ho teaches par
ent* to dll the nuraery with the bright
ness and good cheer of Joyous life.
Christ Is not only the Loyd of the
night, and the conqueror of the storm;
nnd the physician of the sln-alck soul.
He Is also the Master of all day, and
the pilot oh the calm Sea. and the guide
of robust manhood. He la not only to
be found at the railway collision where
men ore mangled and bleeding and dy
ing, but also In the rushing, thundering
market-place, where men trade, ex
change the greetings of health and
contend for the prizes of fortune.
Christ came not to repress human en
ergy. or to discount human aspiration,
but to quicken and enlarge and In
spire and guide both to divine uses. He
brought no ucrusatlon against the
world He had made, but only con
demnation for the perveralon of It, and
the haze appropriation of It by the
perishing, earthy nature. He was no
friend cf the Indolence that Is content
to live In rags, but sought to quick
en the faculties which have gradually
converted all the resources of nature
Into human uses. Sskya Slant, the
Buddha, taught his disciples that
everything on earth was fleeting, hol
low, delusive—that life Ithelf with Its
feelings, desires, passions, was all vain,
empty and deceitful; that the only
hope left poor, wretched human beings
was to cut every tic which held them
to the relatione of time. Thus the
Hindu teacher would solve the problem
of existence by giving up every use to
which life could be put. He would sit
flat under the Bo-tree until he evap
orated Into thin air, the thin* nearest
like Ills Nirvana of all we know. The
doctrine Christ lived and taught was
as unlike that of the Buddha as day is
unlike night. Christ came voluntarily
Into Ufa and .magnified It and Illus
trated what could be made of It, not
by fieeTng from It, but by living It from
the right motive, and with the right
aim. While the world to which He
came, at he time of Hia birth, waa a
wilderness, of disorder and confusion,
He proposed to Introduce order and
make the' whole planet bloom with
more of beauty than Eden ever did.
There was not but one thing In all the
world He opposed, and that was sin,
which consisted of the subordination
of the higher nature of man to the
lower. In order that He might work
a revolution and Introduce into this
outlying patch of His Father’s vast
estate the cuatoms of heaven. He sim
ply called upon meh to believe In Him,
become Hia disciples and live His life.
Christ did not come to show men how
to shuffle off the mortal coll, but how
to keep It on aa long as possible and
make It servo the eternal alma of God.
An old Methodist preacher called to
see my mother. She called me and
sold: “My son. that Is the man who
baptized you.” Then tha saintly old
brother put his hand on my head
nnd naked: "My son, are you get,

had ever rested on my head, and whet
he removed It I waa greatly relieved
I remember the preacher's name from
that elide Incident. I have always
felt that he made a mistake, it would
have b erf much more appropriate had
ho osked me If I was going to school
and reading good books and getting
ready to live a useful and upright life
The emphasis that has been placed
upon preparation for death, the last
Judgment, and the happiness or mis.
ery of the next world has led a good
many people to fall Into the rough and
ready op'nion that the Christian re
ligion is not mainly for thla world
but almost entirely for the next As

learn the lesson that, coming aa a babe
Christ's mission waa to regenerate and
renew and enrich the life that now is
from tha cradle to the grave, if pure
and strong and good through the grace
which He gives on earth, we will as

DR. GEORGE A. BEATTIE.
T HIS Incident In the life of Christ
occurred soon after our hist les-
__ son Jn the autumn of A. I). 29,
about six months before His crucifixion,
fiene -the base of Mt. Itermon, In the
fcglon of Cesarea Philippi. Philip, the
ti'imrrh. embellished the town and
called It nfter himself to distinguish It
front the one on the sea coast called
gfter his father, where l’aul was Im
prisoned. Hero Herod the Great set
up a temple In which divine honors
were paid to his master Augustus. "It
Is very striking Hint the first clear ctm-
fi salon of Christ's divine aonshlp was
made near the shrine In which men
worshipped a follow man ns God.
These were the two religions that were
sh.utly to contest the world, the inar-
bla temple covering the bust of an etn-
pvi Its group of exiles round the
loader whom Ills own people had re
jected."—Adam Hmllh. l.uke Dim tells
us that only Ills disciples were present
anti that It was at a prayer meeting
that Jesus asked the question, "Whom
do men any that I the firm at man am?"
Christ most often spoke of Himself as
4* the Hon of Man, though He claimed to
It he the Hon of God.
'T* • Christ knew the hearts or nten, and
He knew what they thought of llhn,
ami He asked tho first question only
, that He might ask the second one of
' them. He was nearing the close of
His ministry nnd He wished to pre
pare them for the crucifixion, and es-
tahiish Ills church.
« The Impetuous, Impulsive Peter, al

rt' "Thou apt the Christ, the Hon of the
IB lag God.*
y Hn was much pleased with the nn-
t. swer, and assured Peter that he would

£ a reply, had he not been assisted by

id union of the divine and human, which

Net Ready to be Proclaimed.
Our Havlour had the beat of reasons
for enjoining the disciples not to pro
claim His Measlashlp at this time.
They were not ready to teach the doc
trine and would not be till the day of
Pentecost, when they should be en-
bued with understanding and power.
Hnvlng brought the disciples to a
right conception of Himself, of HI*
personality, His relation to the Father,
He nutat now begin to prepare them
for the groat event to which all others
looked forward, nnd without which all
the rest would be worthless. He must
lead them to n ronecptlon of Hia mis
sion. the redemption of the rare.
Then Peter began to rebuke Him. If
He avsi tn suffer and die as He had
predicted. It would be an Inglorious
ending of Ills life, and contrary to nil
their expectations. They thonght He
waa going to establish an earthly king
dom. and they were to play an Impor
tant part In It. They disputed among
themselves who should be the greatest
hi It. Nenr the rlose of His ministry
they asked Him If He waa nt thla time
going to establish the kingdom of
Israel.
Peter had gained only a glimpse of
Christ's spiritual kingdom, and so the
Master reproved him, telling him that
he was a stumbling block Instrnd of a
stone, and that- his words came front
Baton through him, the same that he
had used lo HI in, when he tempted
Him In the wilderness.
Self-Oenlel.
Then Jeaua sold to His disciples, and
Stark tells ua, all the people, for what
He waa about (o say waa of universal
application, "If any man will coma
after Me, let him deny himself and
take up his cross and follow Me."
Neither by example or precept did
Christ sanction ascetlsm. Nor did He
tearh ihBl tye are to endure self-im
posed penalties and penances. Our
cross thnt we ere to hear la whatever
Is hard to do or bear for Christ's aake.
What may bs a cross tor one Is not for
another. Whatever It Is. ws are to beer
It cheerfully. It Is harder to drag the
cross than to carry It.
Profit and Loss.
A student In one of our colleges was
a very fine mathematician and often
difficult problems were hnnded him for
solution. Gne night he rants In end
found this problem lying on hia table:
"What shall It profit a man If he gain
the whole world and lose hie own
soul?" ire was an irreligious young
inan, ami at first laughed over It as a
Joke. But he found on retiring that It
had mode such an Impression on hie
mind that he rould not go to sleep. And
for daye he kept pondering over It, till
at Inst he found a solution In giving
Itlmeelf to Christ.
It Is a problem that Is preasnted to
each one of us for solution, and can be
solved only In one way. Among all
other questions of profit and loss this
one should be paramount and pre
eminent.
If we would know the value of a soul
we linve but to look at Calvary. It Is
of such tnflnts value that Jeaua laid
aside Ills robe and crown, and left Ills
heavenly abode to come to earth, nnij
assuming our nature, live u life of pov
erty anil persecution and then die the
cruel. Ignominious death of the cross.
We should prlte It above the wealth of
the world—all the gold In her mines,
all the pearls In her seas, all her dia
monds that sparkle In crowns of roy
ally, or flash on the hands and In the
tresses of beauty.
The promise In the last verse of the
lesson may have been fulfilled at ilia
resurrertlnn or on the day of Rente-
cost. His death, Ills resurrection, Hia
second coining, and the Judgment, were
the four great truths He would Impress
on Ills congregation. Can we truthfuliy
eoy, aa sometimes wre sing.
“Jesus, I my cross have taken.
All to leave and follow Thee;
Naked, poor, despised, forsaken.
Thou from hence my all shall be?'
