UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL
CUNDAY Ochool Lesson I
By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. D. D.
Dean of The Moody Bible Institute
of Chicago.
(Re lea lied by Western Newspaper Union.)
Lesson for October 1

THE INFANCY OF JESUS
LESSON TEXT—Matthew 2:13-23.
GOLDEN TEXT—And they shall call his
name Emmanuel, which being interpreted
is, God with us.—Matthew 1:23.
Looking forward to an experience
in life which promises to be both in¬
teresting and profitable always
brings a glow of expectation. Some¬
thing of that spirit should pervade
the Bible schools of our land as
they begin a six-months study in the
Gospel of Matthew.
Consideration of our Lord’s life
properly starts with the story of His
birth, but we reserve that for our
Christmas lesson. Today we stress
the manner in which the Child Je¬
sus was received into the world.
Men then as now, were either for
Him or against Him. God had only
one attitude, that of loving protec¬
tion and preparation of His Son for
His ministry.
I. Christ in the World of Men.
The world of today is far differ¬
ent from that of the first century,
but the difference is all on the out¬
side. Almost breath taking have
been the developments of modern
civilization, but these have not
changed the heart of man. He still
fears and hates and fights and sins.
His attitude toward Christ is un¬
changed. There are still only two
classes of people in the world—those
who have received Christ and are
saved, and those who have rejected
Him and are lost.
1. Against Christ.
How do men show their rejection
of God’s Son? Just as they did at
His birth, by: a. Fear. Herod was
afraid lest the coming of this one
should result in the loss of his ill-
gotten gains. His anger and fear
made all Jerusalem afraid, b. In¬
difference. When the Wise Men
asked where Christ was to be bom,
the priests and scribes knew exactly
where to find the facts in the Holy
Scriptures, but having done so, they
relapsed into utter indifference.
They had no interest in the fulfill¬
ment of the prophecy, c. Hatred.
Herod poured out the violence of his
heart by killing the first-born. He
was the first of many who have raged
against the Christ in futile anger,
d. Sorrow. The tears of the mothers
of Jerusalem but foreshadowed the
weeping and wailing which charac¬
terizes Christ-rejection both in time
and eternity.
2. For Christ.
Thanks be to God, there wera
those in that day who were for Christ
and, like those who follow Him to¬
day, they showed: a. Spirituality.
Men have marveled that the Magi
knew of the birth of Christ. They
must have studied the prophecies of
the Word and been responsive to the
teaching and moving of the Holy
Spirit. Can we say as much for
ourselves? b. Interest. Not content
to know and to marvel, they shamed
the priests of Israel by their per¬
sistent interest in this great thing
which had come to pass. c. Love.
They brought themselves in worship
and they brought rich gifts from
their treasures. You can give with¬
out loving, but you cannot love with¬
out giving, d. Action. They came.
They persisted until they found the
Christ. Then they listened to God
and protected His Son by not re¬
turning to Herod.
II. Christ in God’s World.
Men had brought sin and ruin into
the world. They had rejected His
Son, but God still ruled and we see
Him protecting, preparing, and ful¬
filling prophecy through His Son.
1. Protecting. Men may hate and
seek to destroy God’s Son. Satan
may inspire them with ingenuity and
cunning, but see how the Eternal
One speaks to Joseph in dreams,
how He prepares a place of refuge
in Egypt and ultimately in Naza¬
reth, where the boy Jesus may in¬
crease in wisdom and stature and
favor with God and man.
2. Preparing. God knows of the
days of public ministry which are
ahead and above all, of that day
when on Golgotha’s hill Christ was,
in His own body, to prepare salva¬
tion for you and for me. God is not
taken by surprise. He moves for¬
ward to the completion of His plan
with the stately tread of eternity.
3. Fulfilling. God also sees to it
that prophecy is fulfilled. We read
in verses 15 and 23, “that it might
be fulfilled” and in verse 17, “then
was fulfilled.” God’s Word is always
sure, for He makes it so. His in-
finite and eternal faithfulness guar¬
antees the fulfillment of every proph¬
ecy, yes, and of every promise of
His Holy Word.
Progress of Mankind
In my youth, looking at this man
and that, I marvelled that humanity
had made so little progress. Now,
looking at man in the multitude, I
marvel that they have advanced so
far.—George Gissing.
No Love Without Service
It is as impossible for love to
thrive without service as for a
plant to grow without soil. Love
feeds on what we give, not on what
we get.

rub them with fine sandpaper or

Polishing Toweis.—Towels in¬
tended for polishing glassware oft¬
en shed tiny particles of fluff. To
avoid this, they should be washed
in the ordinary way and then
rinsed in a very thin solution of
starch.

Encouraging Diligence. — Make
a list of duties for the young mas¬
culine member of the family to
follow in cleaning his room. The
business of checking them off each
day gives him a sense of impor¬
tance that encourages diligence
• • «
For Cooking in the Open.—Two
fires often are more convenient
than one. One may be used for
the coffee and the other for roast¬
ing or frying.
• • *
Economy in Meat.— In buying a
roast it often is economical to get
a large one and cut off several
chops for the first meal. The roast
will keep for several days in a
mechanical refrigerator.
• * *
Floor Polisher.— When polishing
floors make a thick pad of felt or
velvet and fasten it over an old
worn-out broom. This makes an
excellent polisher and saves the
trouble of kneeling on the floor.
*Tis the Head, Not Heart,
That Wags the Tongue
In recognition of some service
Chief Washakie of the Shoshone
Indians had rendered, General
Grant sent him a beautiful silver-
mounted saddle. It was present¬
ed with troops drawn up and a
grandiloquent speech by the com¬
manding officer.
When Washakie was asked if he
wished to reply, he shook his head
negatively.
“What!” shouted the colonel,
“after all you heard you have
nothing to say?”
The Indian answered: “White
man feels with his head; his head
has tongue. Indian feels with his
heart; heart no tongue.”
