ASKED AND ANSWERED.
BY C. E. W. DOBBS, D.D.
A xhort time since the Methodist
preacher here, a znalonx g<»od man,
preached two xeruions < >ne wax abont
the wise and foolixh virgins He held
that all of them had oil in their lamp*,
and once were Christian*; but the fool
ixh let their lamp* go out. etc. What i*
your version of that parable? The other
sermon wax abont the vine and the
branch?*. Every branch in me bring
ing not forth good fruit ix cut off and
burned He held in this that the Chris
tian in Christ reprexented the branches,
and that if the branches bear no fruit
were cut off—in other words, were lost,
fallen from grace. What ia your ver
sion of lioth parables? Please answer
I am a Baptist and have my views about
it. I read your column with great in
terest. A- J. H.
Ax we have so frequently said, the
parables of Jesus are not to be strained
beyond their designed teaching. The
parable of the virgins had one definite
design—it was to teach the duty of
watchful preparation as the disciples
waited for their Lord. It wax no part
of Christ’s purpose in that parable to
teach anything c incerning ' falling from
grace.’ The parable of the vine and
the branches was.spoken to urge fruit
fulness on the part of believers. The il
lustration must not be forced beyond
that design. The figurativereprexenta
tion shows that there is a sense in which
person* are "in” Christ who do not bring
forth fruit. Their connection is proses
sional, not vital Final apostasy is ac
counted for in the New Testament on
the ground of the absence of true reli
gion John clearly expresses this 1
John 2:11). We should not strain any
passage to contradict so positive a state
ment Our Lord himself says that he
will finally say to the rejected, "I ntr< r
knew you. ’ Matt 7:23 They never
were real disciples. In the same sense
the bridegroom speaks to the foolish vir
gins. To "know’’ one is to recognize
one as a disciple John 10:13; (lai -1:S);
1 Cor. 8:8; 2 Tim. 2:19. Broadus:
"Whether the foolish virgins are to be
considered as representing church mem
bers, there ix nothing to show; they are
persons who profess, and honestly think
that they are Christ’s friends, and ex
pect to meet him with joy. To take
lamps, and no lasting supply of oil, tug
gests that superficial and temporary in
terest in divine things which is so often
witnessed." Hovey,on John 15:1 7,says:
"Two classes of persons are connected
with Christ—(l) those who are united
with him by intellect and profession
merely, and (2) those who are united
with him in heart also. Those of the
first class may exhibit the form of godli
ness, but they know nothing of its pow
er. They promise but do not perform;
they bear leaves but not fruit; they are
like the fig tree which the Lord cursed
At death, if not before, the tie which
unites such persons with Christ will be
sundered. It js frequently broken in
this life, by tribulation and persecution,
which the nominal Christian finds it
hard to bear; or by the cares of this
world and the deceitfulness of riches,
which turn away the mere professor
from even thoughts of God. It is sure
to lie severed first or last. But those of
the second class, being united with
Christ by love, are to be disciplined
with a view to abundant fruitfulness in
the divine life .... If a man
abide not in me, etc. Does this refer to
one who has been in vital, fruit bearing
union with Christ? Or, to one. who like
the sterile branch of verse 2, is only
united to Christ by a public profession,
resting on a merely intellectual belief?
Even if the former is taken to be the
correct view of Christ's language here,
the promise is hypothetical, and may
have been assumed, not as actual, or
even probable, l>ut simply as ikissHilc
The truth about "falling from grace"
must be sought, not in those passages
of doubtful import, but in those plain
and unequivocal statements regarding
the certainty of the salvation of God’s
elect John 10:27 29; Rnn 8:28-39; 1
Cor. 1:8; Eph. 4:30; Phil 1:0, and many
other passages.
Dear Bro Dobbs: Is there any di
rect Scripture proof of the immortality
of man? Please give book, chapter and
verse.
1 hold that the idea of the immortal
itv of man originated with the heathen
Greeks. I Tim. 0 15-10; 1 Cor. 15; Gen.
3 22, and others
,i. c. CARLTON.
The Scripture does not attempt to
"prove" that man is immortal: the fact
is rather taken for granted. <)f course
we are not immortal in the same sense
that God is immortal, for he "only hath
immortality" as the author and source
of immortality. Man’s immortality is
derived God given. It is true that the
“heathen Greeks ” arrived at the conelu
sion that the soul is immortal. Their
philosophy gave its sanction to the fact,
but that did not make them the "origi
nators" of the doctrine. It was held by
the Egyptians before there were any
"Greeks." Indeed the thought appears
to be part of man’s primitive God re
vealed knowledge of himself. Sin ob
scured that primitive revelation,and the
generations succeeding the fall lost a
clear conception of the truth. The uni
versal consciousness of the moral facul
ty, however, shows that it has never
been wholly lost. The possession of that
faculty differentiates man from all other
animal creations, and seems to demon
strate his immortality. Still it was re
served for the gospel to bring the great
truth fully to light. The gospel revela
tion teaches as positively as any truth
can be taught that the spirit does not
expire with the body. It enters at
death upon a separate and independent
existence apart from the body. The
parable of the rich man and Lazarus
cannot be intelligently explained if this
fact be ignored. Paul believed that his
spirit would enjoy a conscious compan
ionship with his Savior when it should
depart from his body. The dying male
factor died in the assurance that his
freed spirit would that day be with the
Lord in Paradise. Every representation
of the New Testament implies such sep
arate and conscious existence of the
spirit, and that implies immortality as
an essential endowment of the soul. (2
Tim. 1:10; Luke 16:22; Phil. 1:23; 2 Cor.
5:1 9; Luke2B:43: IThes. s:lo,and many
other places )
Dear Bro. Dobbs: The following is
the utterance of a Methodist preacher,
verbatim, viz.: "I do not believe that
Christ fully realized his mission in the
world until about the time of his bap
tism: for that was the time of the man
ifestation of God in the flesh. ”
2. At what time was Christ anointed?
See Luke 4:18. Please give your views
on the above items and oblige,
R. J. H.
1. We see no especial reason to dis
sent from the opinion. The coming of
the Holy Spirit upon our Lord at his
baptism does seem to mark an ex
traordinary point in his earthly career.
We know that in his previous experience
Jesus grew in wisdom as well as stature,
and it is not at all inconsistent with his
recognized divinity to say that when
the Holy Spirit was received in his full
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX: THURSDAY, JULY 9, 1896.
ness, he became more conscious of bin
mission than he was before that event.
It must never be forgotten, in our stud
ies of bis unique nature, that he was as
really human ax divine. Os course we
cannot fully comprehend the mystery,
for we are finite only, and can have only
finite experience Could we understand
all, we should be no longer mere men;
but, like Jesus God men. We would
not, however, limit the "manifestation
of God in the flesh” to the particular
event of Christ’s baptism. That mani
festation wax a part of his entire life
and work. He was ever manifesting
God to men. (Matt. 3:16; Luke 2:40;
John 3:84; 1 Tim 3:1« )
2. The passage does not refer to a lit
eral anointing, but a spiritual. The
anointing was not ritual; it was of God,
not of man. Nor does it refer to any
particular moment of time, but to the
general presence and power of the Spirit
who dwelt in Jesus. The anointing
was an abiding experience, just as that
of every believer is (1 John 2:20, 27),
though, of course, ours is limited by in
firmities of mind and heart, to which
our Lord was a stranger; for he was so
anointed that he absolutely knew all
truth—aye, was himself the Truth.
Dear Bro. Dobbs: 1. Did the body
in which our Savior appeared after the
resurrection possess the same nature that
it had before his crucifixion? In bther
words, was it identical in every respect?
If not. in what was it different?
This question was sprung in our Bible
class last Sunday and some claimed
that it was the same in even/ particular,
while some of us held that it rose an im
mortal or spiritual body, and therefore
was different, in that it wax not subject
to pain orsufft-ring of any kind,and pos
sessed no element of decay.
2. Will out resurrection bodies be the
same as our present bodies? If not, in
what respect will they be different?
3. 1 heard a preacher say some time
ago that all the scars on our present
bodies will appear on our resurrection
bodies Is this idea sustained by the
Bible?
4. What does this Scripture mean:
"Flesh and blood shall not inherit the
kingdom of heaven?” (1 Cor. 15:50)
ENQUIRER.
1. Jesus said that his body was one of
“flesh and bones.” (Luke 24:39.) He
ate before his disciples to show that it
was a real body, and not an apparition.
So little is revealea to us concerning
the nature of his risen body that it is
not possible to settle the many ques
tions which arise. We know, indeed,
that it was the same Jesus they had
known and who had been crucified,who
now appeared again to them —risen from
the tomb. In regard to the bearing of
tnis upon the future glorified spiritual
botly, which shall be ours in the resur
reetton, we may speculate, but can
know really nothing. As Dr. Bliss says,
We are,perhaps, warranted, from what
the chapter tells us, in concluding that
our Savior was in an absolutely unique
condition, belonging of right to the fu
ture life, but called by his office to main
tain a recognizable relation to his disci
ples here a little longer.” A certain air
of mystery clothed his person and move
ments after his resurrection. No man
knew whence he came, or whither he
went, or how he lived. He seemed to
hover over the pathway of his disciples,
visible or invisible at will. His body
was real, yet not subject to the common
laws of matter. With new properties,
powers and attributes, it was a perfe( t
servant of the spirit, Nowhere do the
evangelists hint at any reason for this
change in the bearing of Christ after his
resurrection, but with nice agreement
do all their accounts reveal the change
itself. (Hovey.) Meyer contends that
the body of Jesus was not yet in its glo
rified state, but only on its way to glori
fication, and still in its material state.
Dr. Hovey, however, says that "from
his resurrection, onward, Christ was in
his glorified body, as this coming, in
spite of closed doors, shows (compare
Luke 24:31, 36); and if he appears to his
disciples in a body apprehensible by the
senses, this takes place for the very
purpose of making them certain of his
naving a bodily nature, and so of his
resurrection ” So he holds that Jesus
was changed when he first left the tomb
raised incorruptible. Such a body
co lid not know pain, or suffering of any
Kind, nor be subject to decay. Perhaps
this is about all we can hope to know
about it until that day when we shall see
him and be like him. Till then let us
patiently wait and serve him.
2 No, for the apostle clearly distin
guishes between our present-and the fu
ture spiritual body. (1 Cor. 15:85-44)
What the differentiating particulars are
we have no means of knowing. Revela
tion has not lifted the veil. But we be
lieve our resurrection bodies will be
like that body of Jesus which ascended
into heaven from Olivet. (Phil. 3:21.)
That spiritual body we believe to be the
"house" which shall clothe the freed
spirit. (2 Cor. 5:1.)
3. We think not.
4. By "flesh and blood" Paul means
man in his present earthly state. As such
he is unfitted for the celestial state, and
hence must either pass through the
change wrought by death or that
wrought in the final change of the living
at Christ’s advent. (See verses 51-53.1
Celestial bodies in verse 40 means res
urrection or changed bodies. Enoch,
Elijah and Christ (perhaps also the saints
raised when Christ rose) are in heaven
with just such "celestial bodies”—hu
man bodies which have experienced the
transformation from corruption into in
corruption. Sometimes ‘ flesh and
blood" refer to man’s carnal nature as a
sinner, but here the phrase evidently
denotes man s physical nature, which
cannot exist in the immortal life.
FOR BRAIN FAG
Use Horsford’s Acid Phosphate.
Dr. W. R. Lowman, Orangeburgh, R. C .
says: • 1 have used and pre cribed it with
beneficial results in brain fag and nerve ex
haustion.'’
Yawning, it seems, is whole
some if not polite. “Not only is
it very healthy to yawn, - ’ says a
French physician, “but yawning
should be resorted to in cases of
sore throats, buzzing of the ears,
catarrh, and like troubles.” It is
said to be as efficacious in its way
as gargling the throat, with
which process it should be com
bined. We would mildly suggest,
however, that it be taken as the
modest spinsters in Cranford
took their oranges.
In cases where dandruff, scalp diseas
es, falling and grayness of the hair ap
pear, do not neglect them, but apply a
proper remedy and tonic like Hall's Hair

Suggestive.
How would a liquor exhibition
do with the following exhibits,
suggested by the New York
Tribune :
A dray bearing a woman and
children from some drunkard’s
home. No label.
A dozen or more men walking
behind this dray who have been
ruined by rum, now known as
tramps. No label.
A wagon such as is used for
conveying wild beasts with a cir
cus contair ing a man in convict’s
clothes. Label-“ State prison;
eighty per cent of all crime
caused by rum.”
Another van of the same de
scription containing a maniac
might follow, appropriately
labeled “More fruits of rum.”
Here is a whole sermon in a
sentence by Hannah More: “He
who cannot find time to consult
his Bible will one dav find that
he has time to be sick; he who
has no time to pray must tind
time to die; he who can find no
time to reflect is most likely to
find time to sin; he who cannot
find time for repentance will find
an eternity in which repentance
will be of no avail; he who can
not find time to work for others
may find an eternity in which to
suffer for himself.”
