Lesson for May 27
THE LAST JUDGMENT
LESSON TEXT—Matthew
GOLDEN TEXT—For we muit all
appear before the judgment seat of
Christ; that every one may receive the
things done in his body, according to
that he hath done, whether it bo good
or bad. II Cor. 6:10.
PRIMARY TOPlC—Doing Things for
Jesus.
JUNIOR TOPIC—The King's Test of
Service.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP
lC—Serving Christ by Serving Others.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
lC—Christ Our Judge.
A more correct topic for today’s les
son would be The Judgment of the
Nations. According to the legitimate
textual and contextual signification tt
is the judgment of the living nations,
which still Iles In the future. The
idea of a general judgment is a funda
mental error. Doctor Pentecost well
says, “It is a mischievous habit that
has led the Christian world to speak
of the Judgment as being one great
event taking place at the end of the
world when all human beings, saints
and sinners, Jews and Gentiles, the
living and the dead, shall stand up
before the great white throne and
there be Judged. Nothing can be more
wide of the Scriptures."
The Bible speaks of several Judg
ments, differing In respect to the sub
jects to be Judged, the place of judg
ment, the time and result of the Judg
ment. The judgment which we are
considering today Is not that one set
forth in Revelation 20:11-14. It pre
cedes that one hy at least 1,000 years.
A definite analysis of this lesson will
show how entirely distinct this Judg
ment Is from the final Judgment
I. The Judge (v. 31).
He is the Son of man, the one who
came and died to redeem the human
race. At this time he Is seen clothed
with majesty and power sitting upon
his throne acting as Judge. There ts
no Judgment, so far as sin is con
eerned, for those who now accept
Jesus Christ as their Saviour (John
5:24).
It. The Time of Judgment (v. 31).
This judgment will take place when
the Lord comes In his glory accom
panled by a retinue of glorious an
gels. and after he has gathered the
elect remnant of Israel. There will
be no resurrection in connection with
this judgment
111. The Place of Judgment (v. 31).
The prophecies of Joel (2:1-17) and
Zechariah (14:1-5) show that It will
be In or near Jerusalem. The angel
said to Mary, "Thou shalt call his
name Jesus. He shall be great and
shall be called the Son of the High
est, and the Lord God shall give unto
him the throne of his father David.
And he shall reign over the house of
Jacob forever; and of his kingdom
there shall be no end" (Luke 1:31-
33). As David was a literal king and
reigned at a literal place, there shall
be at that time a literal judge occupy
ing a literal place of judgment
IV. The People Judged (vv. 32-45).
It Is expressly declared "before him
•hall be gathered all nations." They
will be the nations left upon the earth
after the church has been translated
(I Thess. 4:16, IT). These are the na
tions to whom the gospel of the king
dom shall be preached Just prior to
the coming of the end of this age.
"And this gospel of tbe kingdom shall
be preached In all the world for a wit
ness unto all nations; and then shall
the end come” (MutL 24:14). This gos
pel Is distinct from the grace of God
which Is now being preached. The
preachers of this gos[>el will be the
Jews (Rev. 7 and Rom. 11). They will
move among the nations of the earth
with the startling news of the Lord’s
approaching kingdom.
V. The Issue of the Judgment (vv.
32-46).
Some of the nations will gladly re
ceive the message of the kingdom and
most kindly receive the King's messen
gers. Others will persecute them,
thrusting them Into prison. Here
those who receive the message will ■
visit the messengers of the King and
provide for their wants. At this
time the judge will separate the '
nations, placing the sheep on the |
right hand and the goats on the left
The sheep are those who give proper
treatment to Christ’s brethren, the ■
messengers of the gospel of the :
kingdom. The goats are those who ;
reject the message and maltreat i
the messengers. If these three
classes, the sheep, the goats, and the
brethren be kept separate in our
thinking all confusion will be avoided. I
The sheep will enter upon the Inherit
ance of a prepared kingdom. The
goats will go Into everlasting fire pre
pared for the devil and his angels
(v. 46).
For Our Tru,t
The infinite Father does not stand by
us to be catechised and explain him
self to our vain minds. He Is here for
our trust; and If we will but lean on
him our chafing heart shall sleep tbe
sweet sleep of recovery.
A Constant Prayer
Love for our fellow creatures is a
constant prayer, but this very love
will always Incite us to actual prayei
at stated seasons, and for prescribed
times.

OLD CHRISTMAS
STILL KEPT UP
Had Origin in First English
Colony in New World.
Each year we rend with sentimen
tal interest descriptions of the cere
bration of “Old Christmas” by fish
erfolk and other residents of the an
cient village of Rodanthe, on the
long and narrow outer barrier is
lands that impound Pamlico sound
off North Carolina. Sometimes we
read that the celebration is held on
January 5 and sometimes that It is
held on January 6, the difference be
ing that Twelfth Night, or Old
Christmas Eve, may have greater
emphasis in celebration than Twelfth
Tide on Twelfth Day (Old Christmas
Day) as the villagers continue a
celebration that extends back to
their forefathers and even the time
of Sir Walter Raleigh and establish
ment of the first. English colony in
the New world.
However, if we search the back
districts of the Missonri Ozarks, it
Is quite likely that we could find this
belated celebration of Christmas
much closer to our own modern
homes, as well as hear the belief ex
pressed that on Twelfth Night cattle
of the fields kneel in greeting to
the new-born Christ. This tradi
tion and refusal to accept the
calendar corrections of Pope Greg
ory were brought to this coun
try by early settlers from Britain and
persisted for many generations not
only in the barrier Islands that pro
tect North Carolina from the raging
sea, but. in the mountains along the
eastern seaboard, spreading even to
the Ozarks of Missouri and Arkan
sas as the mountaineers sought new
homes.
It is fitting, however, that the tra
dition had its spread only by family
and that the outstanding community
expressions remains near the place
it was introduced to America, In
Dare county, North Carolina, where

LEADERSHIP
Firestone maintains its leadership in tire development by producing a new tire
for 1934 with a wider tread, flatter contour, deeper non-skid, greater thickness, and more
and tougher rubber, which gives greater non-skid safety, more traction, greater blowout
protection, and more than 50% longer non-skid milcage.
These achievements are made practical by the Firestone patented process of Gum-Dipping,
providing greater adhesion between the plies of the high stretch cords and between the

Gum-Dipping made it possible for Firestone
to design, develop and put on the market the
first successful balloon tire in 1923. This tire was
the pattern used by all others and completely
revolutionized tlic tire industry and set new
standards for the automobile industry.
