Children’s Corner. Bev. T. 0. BOYKIN, State 8.8. Evangelist, Ed BIBLE EXPLORATIONS. David went away from Gath and came to a cave. His brethren and all his fath er’s house went down to him ; also every one that wanted to help him get away from San), till there were many men with him tuid he was captain over them. David’s mother and father were getting old and he did not want them to live in a cave, so he went to the king of Moab and asked him to let them stay with him. Then they lived with ‘his king as long as David was in the cave. A certain prophet said to David, Leave the cave and go into the land of J tidah. Then he came and dwelt in a forest. When Saul heard of it. be told his ser vants they were his enemies because they would not tell him of David and what he and Jonathan were going to do against him. Then Doeg the Edomite, who was over the servants of Saul, said : I saw him at Nob, and I saw Ahimelech give him victuals and the sword of Goli ath. The king sent for Ahimelech and alibis father’s house—and when they had come before him he said, Why have you turned against me and helped Da vid to rise up against me? Ahimelech answered him—ls any servant as faith ful as David ; he is the king’s son-in-law, do not blame me or my father’s house, for I did not know that David was flee ing from you. But Saul said you shall surely die ; and he told the'men about him to slay them. Now they were all priests, and the men would not kill them. Then he told Doeg to kill them. He did so, and went to Nob ; here heslew men, women and children-even the little in nocent babes! He also killed all the cat tle. One of Ahimelech’s sons escaped and fled to David and told him of what had taken place. David said, I knew when Doeg saw me that day he would surely tell Saul; now I have caused the death of all your family—stay with me and you shall be safe. Some one told David the Pnilistines had come into J udah and were fighting against the city of Kilah. He asked the Lord if he must go fight the Philistines. God told him yes, but his men were afraid to go, so he asked God a second time, and again God said go. Then he went—smote the Philistines and brought away their cattle, so he saved the people of Kilah. It was told Saul that David was in Kilah and he said, I will get him now, the town has gates and bars and 1 can catch him this time, and Saul called his people together to go destroy the town to get David. David heard of this and asked God through his priest if Saul would be sure to come. God said he would. Then he asked if the people whom he had saved would fight for him or give him up to Saul. God said they would give him up to Saul. So David and his men left Kilah and went to hide from Saul anywhere they could. When Saul heard it he did not go down to the city, but hunted for David every day. God took care of him and would not let Saul find him. David was in a wood in a certain wilderness and Jonathan came to him and said, Do not be afraid, Saul my father shall not find you. He knows you stall be king over Israel and I shall be next to you. They again made a covenant with each other and parted. The people of the country said to Saul, David is Hiding among us in a wood, come down and we will give him unto vour hands. Saul was very glad, and said, Go find out his hiding places and let me know ; I will have him if I have to hunt through all Judah. So they all went to hunt David, who made haste to get away. Saul went on one side of a mountain and David on the other, but just as Saul was about to take David some one came to him and said, Come in haste, for the Philistines are in the land. So Saul had to leave David and fight against them. QUESTIONS. 1. In what cave did David dwell? 2. How manv men were with him ? 3. To what city of Moab did David go ? 4.

There are some questions I can’t answer by myself, but father and mother help me so that I nearly always find them all out before lam done. I think all the chil dren ought to study your questions. I have some little neighbor friends who say they would study them if any one would help them. I have invited them to come over and study them with us every Sunday afternoon. I want to grow up to be a good and useful man, and I know nothing will help me do that as the Bible will. Your little friend, Lucius. We hope Lucius will grow up a good and useful man, we know he will if he continues to study the Bible and follow its teachings. We shall be delighted to learn that his little friends will join him spending every Sunday afternoon in studying our Explorations. We wonder that parents can be so neglectful of theri Children as to fail to teach them God’s word regularly every Sabbath. We would be glad to know how many Christian parents spend even a small portion of every Sabbath teaching their children the Bible at home. We will esteem it a great pleasure if every par ent who does so will send us a statement of time and manner. We ask it as a special favor and we beg our friends everywhere to call attention to this re quest. My Dear Brother : This is to inform you that we have organized a Sunday school at Cedar Creek with fifty-two scholars, myself as superintendent. So this gives me two schools. ..... We were disappointed in not meeting you at our Association. Why so? .... God bless you and your labors. ’ Yours as ever, B. A. Blakey. Oar good friend and brother will ex cuse us for making public the above ex tract from a recent letter, but it did us so much good, we risk his displeasure. We rejoice most sincerely to hear this good news, and while we know our brother has taken upon himself much hard work, (he will have to ride six miles to one school), yet we believe he will enjoy the work and accomplish good for the Master and for the children- Brother B. has been a faithful worker in the Sunday school for many years and has kept up a live school at Appalachee church for a long time. We congratulate brother Butts and the brethren of the church, but most of all “the rising gen eration” around C. C. We would have attended the Association but the plan was for brother DeVotie to go there this year, he was sick. We notice, publicly the organization of this school to stimu late and encourage those who think they cannot keep up a school. The brethren at C. thought they could not, now they have a school with fifty-two members. May God bless Superintendent and school, pastor and people. We will not pass them by next trip, we have never passed brother Blakey by, and never will if we can help it. These explorations are prepared at Tennille, where we have just attended one of the best meetings the Mt. Vernon Association has ever held. We were given full time to discuss missions and schools, and we believe the brethren have gathered inspiration from this ses sion that they will carry till the next meeting. Quite an advance was made in missions. Over S4OO was either paid or pledged to sustain a missionary in then- home field. The S. S. Convention, of which our good friend, Bro. J. J. Hy man, is President, has done good work. Kearly every church has a school- The number will increase no doubt till all have them. Bro. T. J. Beck was elect ed Moderator, and while he said he could not thank the brethren for the com pliment intended, he made a good ofli cer, and conducted the business pleas antly. He has been a most valuable ac quisition to the Mt. Vernon, and is loved and appreciated by his brethren. Who ever knew him that did not love him ? We are the guest of his family, and have received unbounded kindness. No woman knows more about making a preacher comfortable than sister B. She was taught bv a mother that understood it. Bro. J. M. Smith was elected Clerk, and knows how to perform his duties. He and other good brethren, whose names we have not time to call, cheered our heart and strengthened our hands —none more than T. J.

THE PEACE-OFfERING. Lev. VII. 11-18".—B. C. 1490. INTRODUCTION. In our notes of last week we said that the Mosaic sacrifices were five in number; one being self-dedicatory, two sacrifices of thanksgiving and two of expiatory. In our last lesson we considered the burnt-offering or the self-dedicatory, involving the ideas of human guilt and of the necessity of an atonement. The sin-offering, of which the trespass offering may be considered a variety, differed from the burnt offering in this, that it had respect to particular offences, against either the moral or the ceremonial law, which were committed through ignorance or at least not in a presumptuous spirit. Peace offerings and meat-offerings, which were very similar were offered either in re turning thanks for benefits, in fulfillment of vows, or as free will offerings to satisfy pri vate devotion The worshipper might offer them whenever he pleased, and bring such animal as he chose, so that his choice was made among the animalsj allowed in sacri lice. The victim must be without blemish. The offerer brought it to the altar, laid his hand upon its head and killed it on the south side of the altar. Then the priest sprinkled the altar with its blood and burnt its fat upon the sacred fire. The flesh was divided between the priest and the offerer. The peace-offering denoted a communion of friendship between God and his people, at the same time the death of the victim re-> minded those who would enter into this communion, of their personal guilt and signified that without atonement God would never hold friendly intercourse with sinful man. OUTLINE. I. The thanksgiving offering, v. 11-15. 11. The vow offering, v. 16 18. NOTES. I. The thanksgiving offering. V 11 “The sacrifice of peace offerings.” Only he, whose sin has been put away can offer acceptably, for then only he comes as a worshipper of the God who has forgiven him. V. 12 “For a thanksgiving.’.’ In thank fulness for some special mercy received, as recovery from sickness, a safe return from a journey, or some deliverance from great peril. “The sacrifice of thanksgiving.” The animal offered, which was the important part of the offering. “Cakes mingled with oil.” Made f f unbolted Hour and olive oil baked in an oven. They were thick, pierced with holes and hard. "Wafers anointed with oil. ’ Unbolted fl -ur, baked and after wards covered with the oil. “Cakes mingled with oil,of fine flour, fried.” Made of boiled flour and cooked in a shallow earthen pan over a fire. These three kinds of cakes were all to be unleavened. V. 13. “Leavened bread.” This might not be burned but might be eaten by the priest and offerer. V. 14. “Oblation." Anything offered to God in worship. “One out of the whole ob lation.” One of each kind of cakes and one portion of the leavened bread. “A heave offering unto the Lord.” An offering ele vated in the hands and waved toward heaven. “It shall be the priests ” All the rest belonged to the offerer. “That sprink letli the blood.” The blood reminded the offerer of his guilt and of that guilt as laid upon the head of the slain victim. A part of the flesh was given to the priest. V. 15. "The flesh .... shall be eaten the same day.” It should not be laid away for common use afterwards It was offered to the Lord and the offerer and the priest and such as the tfferer might invite must eat. it. Il was enjoined upon worshipers bringing peace-offerings, that all their families, ser vants and all should participate in the sacred feast and that others, who were poor, should also be invited to take part in the joyous celebration. II The vow offering. V 16. “A vow.” A person in distress would sometimes accompany his prayer to God with a vow, that if his prayer were granted he would present an offering to the Lord. Sometimes a person would present his offering at the time of his prayer. This latter was "a voluntary offering.” Both might be termed supplication offerings, dif fering from those which were designed to express gratitude. “On the morrow.” An additional day was allowed for eating the sacrificial meat. V. 17. “Shall be burnt with fire.” That it might not become corrupt, or put to any common use. A very great care was shown that in all these offerings there should be no corruption. Perhaps there is a reference here to the Lamb of God, who after death saw no corruption. V. 18 “It shall not be accepted.” That is, the whole offering should be rejected. “It shall not be imputed unto him.” The offerer shall derive no benefit from it. Not only so, but it sha) i be an “abomination” unto God, and the offer ir shall bear the penalty of his transgression. REMARKS. The peace-offering was the symbol of that joyful communion with God which the par doned sinner obtains. Every believer, who enjoys this communion, should seek to bring others to share it with him. All of us nave constantly occurring occasions for gratitude to God. If we would have even our offerings of gratitude acceptable to God we should bring them with such emotions as he requires. Theremsy be times in any Chris tian’s life when a vow is most natural. See the vow of Jacob at Bethel, Gen. xxviii, 20 22- Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure. A R Ng A 'SWjg SAFE SECURE 'W.
