UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL
SUNDAY I
chool Lesson
By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D. D.
Dean of The Moody Bible Institute
of Chicago.
(Released by Western Newspaper Union i
Lesson for March 30
Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se

Council of Religious Education; used by

CHRIST’S COMMISSION
LESSON TEXT—Luke 24:36-53.
GOLDEN TEXT—Behold. I send the prom
ise of my Father upon you.—Luke 24:49 .
Calvary and the darkness of the
tomb gave way to the glory of the
resurrection morning. Jesus had
appeared to the two on the Emmaus
road, and when they hurried back
to Jerusalem to tell the eleven dis
ciples, who were gathered behind
barred doors, they found that He
had already appeared, not only to
the women, whose story they did not
believe (see v. 11), but also to Peter
(v. 34). While they were excitedly
discussing this great wonder, appar
ently torn between belief and un
belief, joy and sorrow, suddenly
Jesus appeared, coming through the
barred door and greeting them with
a blessed message of peace.
I. A Risen Christ for Fellowship
(vv. 36-43).
The disciples were bewildered and
slow to believe. Perhaps we would
have done no better.
Note how patient and gracious He
was in dealing with these frightened
—and, in a sense, stupid—disciples.
He might have been so discouraged
by their unbelief as to be short and
sharp with them, but He was not.
We need to learn of Him. There are
weak brethren even in the church of
Christ who need our tender and pa
tient consideration (see Rom. 15:1;
I Thess. 5:14). Christ died for the
weak brother too (I Cor. 8:11).
What a blessed time of fellowship
the disciples and the Lord had to
gether. Such times are greatly
needed for our mutual encourage
ment. Let us not forsake the assem
bling of ourselves together (Heb. 10:
25). In a day of need and trial those
that fear the Lord should speak
often with one another and with the
Lord (Mai. 3:16; I John 1:7). '
11. A Dependable Book for Guid
ance and Instruction (vv. 44-46).
Jesus gave His own endorsement
to the Old Testament as a depend
able record of the prophecies con
cerning His person and His work
of redemption. The critics of God’s
Word must face the fact that their
man-made theories are in conflict
with the testimony of the Son of
God. Of the two, we know whom
we will believe!
Notice that an important part of
the Lord’s fellowship with His ps
ciples was devoted to opening tneir
minds so they could understand the
Scripture. The word “opened”
might be translated “disentangled.”
He took out the prejudices, the
wrong ideas, and set them free to
understand and appreciate the
Scriptures.
111. A Great Message for Procla
mation (vv. 47-49).
Fellowship with Christ and a
knowledge of God’s Word which does
not result in an aggressive witness
for Him is quite useless. We meet
Him and learn His truth that we
may carry it out to all nations, not
forgetting (note it!) to begin at the
wicked Jerusalem which is right at
our doorstep.
The business, and the only busi
ness, of the Church is that witness.
We need to renew our commission,
get it clearly in mind, and then
proceed to carry it out. “But,”
someone may say, “we are not able
for this great task.” Of course not;
but He is able, and will enable us.
“Power from on high” is the por
tion of God’s witnesses. This world
worships power—mechanical, politi
cal or military power. The greatest
power of all is spiritual power, and
God is ready to give it to His faith
ful witnesses.
Note that the message is one of
repentance and remission of sins “in
His name.” The gospel of Christ is
the primary need of men and wom
en, boys and girls, in your commu
nity and mine; yes, and to the
very ends of the earth.
IV. An Ascended Lord to Worship
(vv. 50-53).
The ascension of Christ is not
often made the subject of a sermon
or message in the church, but it is
an important doctrine of Scripture.
It marks the completion of the work
of Christ, and His return to the place
of honor at the right hand of the
Father. There, before the Father’s
throne, He is the advocate of every
believer, the pledge and assur
ance of a perfect and eternal fel
lowship between God and believing
man.
The worship which the disciples
gave to Christ as He ascended went
on as they returned to their appoint
ed place of witness, for they continu
ally praised Him. Such should be
the attitude of every true believer.
In the temple of his own heart there
should always be the joy of the Lord
as He is there worshiped and
adored.
Now we have completed our study
of Luke, but we cannot stop here, for
the Gospel, according to Luke’s own
statement in Acts 1:1, was only the
story of what Jesus “began both to
do and to teach.” The continuation
of that account is found in the book
of Acts, which we begin to study
next Sunday.

PAGE SEVEN
Keeping America Posted
Throughout the country during
the next few months, outdoor posters
are appearing that tell a story all
Americans can understand and ap
preciate. They speak of matters of
direct concern to every one of us at
the present moment, and they speak
of these matters in simple, effective
terms.
One poster shows Uncle Sam—
symbolizing Amiericansf in every
walk of ilfe—laying aside his familiar
striped hat and putting on a work
man’s cap, preparatory to doing an
industrial job we are all conscious
needs doing. The slokan on it reads
simply—‘Defend American Freedom
—lt’s Everybody’s Job.” Thus we
are reminded that industry can only
provide the defense materials to
make this country and its freedoms
secure if it has the co-operation and
the understanding of all other groups
and individuals in our eoonomy.
The other poster beers the slogan:
“Industry—Working for Your De
fense.” And it shows a typical Amer
ican family with a background of bu
sy factories. It complements the
first drawing, bearing as it does the
reminder that it is industry, produc
tive industry, that provides the real
safeguards for our American liber
ties and our American security, in
ordinary peacetime and in times of
extraordinary stress.
These two posters, seen in towns
of all sizes throughout the land, have
been painted by the distinguished
artist McClelland Barclay for the
National Association of Manufactu
rers. Members of the Outdoor Ad
vertising Association have made their
widespread appearance possbile by
donating the space for them in the
interests of the national wefare and
national defense. They leave a
thought Americans everywhere will
find worth remembering—and a reas
surance that, as long as a free pro
ductive enterprise is producing for
the national welfare, this country
and its people will remain a strong
and a free land!
SPANISH-SPEAKING AIRMEN
Spanish is now to become the
“second language” of officers and
men of the air force. It has long
been required at West Point. The
adjutant-general has now suggested
that Spanish be taught at all troop
schools attended by air force officers
and men, including those of federal
ized National Guard units.
With more and more air bases in
the Caribbean area and the Pacific,
and with increasingly cordial rela
tions with the armies and air forces
of the countries of Latin America,
this is a logical and necessary step.
It’s not only a sound step in pro
moting inter-American unity and
understanding, but it might come in
darned handy after a forced land
ing to be able to ask for America
and a ham sandwich.
