\V«- are today entering upon n ■ \
n —in' course of study in the G- pel
v. Luke, whose general sub.; - ! s
“Jesus the World's Savior." 'l'■lav's
lesson concerns the birth of .! hi tl.--
Boptist, the forerunner of i'ic-1.
I. The Parents of John the Baptist ;
(vv. 5-7).
1. When They Lived (v. 5). “la the’
flays of Herod the King.'* They lived
in a day when ungodliness v ~s rife.
The priesthood was very cor: apt and
the ruling <ia.-<es were wb-k.il. Z:n-li
arias and his wife lived In a Gu.e
when it was not so ca.-> io In- godly.
2. Their Character (v. 6). They
were righteous before God. T
righteous before God Is a high tribute. ;
Many appear to be righteous before
men who are not rightcou.' before God.
Their lives were so mated that they I
walked in the commandments < f i
Lcjrfl blameless. How beautiful u -s •
when husband anti wife are milled In
the Lord and walk together in f< how
ship with God, <
ft-They—Were cihildless (v. 7).
Though this godly < ample ■•.■;■ > il
| mated and they ;u ■.••! tl Jo? of
the Lord in their souls, there w. -a .
real lack in that home.
11. Tne Birth of John Prcmic'td (vv
8-17).
J. By Whom (v. 11 ; cf. v. 10). Th- >
anjgel Gabriel appeared and made
known the good news to Za< liarias. ,
Tl|is exalted being, the special mos- :
sehger of God, w.as sent to make this ■
disclosure.
2. When (vv. 8-14). While oTu irit !
Ing as priest this g-od news came to ■
hftn. Zacharias must have been flefi- I
nltelv praying about this very matter
(v, 13) As he burned incense, Which
typified prayer, the multitude without
•were praying.
3. Characteristics of the Child (vv.
!ll>17). (1) Shall he great in the sight
of the Lord (v. 15). Though the ■
people did not greatly esteem t.im he (
was highly esteemed by the Lord. This
isdnfnitoiv better than if he had been i
greatly esteemed in the eyes of iilcti •
or in his own eyes. This is the esteem ■
for which we all should long am 1 pray
(2.) Shall drink neither wine n< r j
strong drink (v. 1.7). Tito child shall
b&eome a Nazarite, separating him
self front the sensuous tilings and ded
. testing himself to the service of the
Lqr<l. (3) Be filled with the Holy
Ghost (v. 15). The energy of the di
vine Spirit would enable him to load
thb people to repentance (v. 16).
(4) Shall go in the spirit, and power
of' Elijah (v. 17). In this power lie
was to prepare the people for the
coining of the Savior and the salva
tion which He was to bring.
Hl. Zacharias Asking for a Sign
<vy. 18-23).
Althongli the aged priest was ear
nestly praying for rhe salvation of
Israel the gracious promise of the
angel. whi'T. was tlie beginning of that
Ffllvation, Staggered his faith. He was
urjable to believe that that for which
he fondly hoped and proved would be
renlized. The angel gave Zacharias .a
f sign. He was smitten with dumbness
which was to continue, until the ful
fillment of rhe promise. Beealfse he
refused to praise God in faltj) for this
grtaclous promise God caused his
loltgne to be silent until tile promise
was fulfilled and his lips could open
in thanksgiving and praise. ’ Though
)>e was thus rebuked, at the same time
Lis faith was strengthened by the
xnjinifeslation of th- supernatural.
Giid wants us to trust Him, to believe
his promises, uo matter how contrary
to' reason they may s-em.
IV. The Promise Fulfilled (w. 57-
I
Jwiien tlie time came for the birth
■ of John, Elizabeth brought forth n son
nth) the neighbors ?•-.:<>i«c<l with her
On the eighth day they oireutncized
, the child and gave hint a name accord
fife to the Instruction of the angel
(Y 131, The name John was contrary
to the family custom; By means of
writing Zacharias made known the
name which be would have by divine i
instruction, At this time God opened
the mouth of Zacharias and be offered
up praise.
Youth and Age.
tin my youth I thought of writing a
satire on mankind; but now in my
c|e I think 1 should write an apology
for them.—Walpole.
Lenity and ’Mercy.
When lenity and mercy play for a
kingdom, the gentler gamester Is the
. soonest winner.—Sliakespea.rc.
Heaven Often Smites.
Heaven often smites in mercy, tven
wjien the blow is severest. —Joanna ; <
