legislature for an appropriation sufficient for sinking a wel1or to obtain a water supply from the river During the year just ended we were obliged to pay the sum of 502575 for water and we could for that amount have our own water works The above amount paid for water is about 5 per cent of the cost of maintaining the penitentiary Jenny Linds Determination You must change your entire method of

every child of God could only hear the Spirit whisper in every trial Suffer it to be so now for Jesus sake bow much easier some things would be That step in the hu millatlon of Jesus was like all others to fulfill righteousness When by accepting Him as our Saviour He becomes to us the end of the law for righteousness It is that the righteousness of the jaw maybe fulfilled in us who walk riot after the flesh but after the Spirit Rom 4 vlil4 10 17 Heaven opened the Spirit descending the Father lovingly testifying to His Dearly Beloved Sonwhat a scene what an event I It makes one cry Glory be to tho Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost Luke says that Jesus was praying ill 21 and he also tells us that at the transfiguration when the Father gave the same testimony Jesus had been praying ix 2030 In Him heaven comes to earth and in Him is perfect access to heaven He Is the True Ark where alone the Spirit dove can rest iv 1 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil We think of the statement that God did tempt ie prove try put to the test Abraham Gen nil 1 And again The Lord trlcth the righteous Ps xl The Son of God was mani fested that He might destroy the works of the devil I John Hi 8 He took flesh and blood that He might destroy him that had the power of death that is the devil Heb II 14 therefore at tho very beginning of his bile work being baptized by the Spirit and proclaimed by the Father as His Beloved Son He is brought face to face with His great adversary Let l2 lll cenfic butler tON expect to escape the conflict liut let us learn from our Lord Jesus how to gain the victory 2 And when He had fasted 40 days and 40 nights He was afterward an hungered Luke ly 2t sajs He did sat nothing We think of the other two the only two who fasted 40 days and 40 nights who afterward appeared with Him on the Mount of Transfiguration and we wonder what the full significance of these four 40 day fasts can be for Moses eaaarea If twice petit Ix 10 but tvtf shall know hereafter If aecccwry Mark 1 says that He was with the wild beast I 113 and here again we wait for more light but remember that David before ho slew Goliath had a conflict with a lion and a bear 3 4 God had just said This is My Beloved Son The devil says If Thou be the Son of God Hungry alone and with the wild beasts He did not seem like the Son of God and perhaps did not feel like It yet He was The same tempter comes to the child of God who may be In a strait place and seemingly forgotten of God and says If you were a child of God would He leave you in these cir cumstances and give you these bard things instead of the comforts which would nourish you would Ho deprive you of the simple necessaries if you were His child Thus be would have us distrust God and turn oar backs upon Him Mark our Lords reply and let us lay it to heart and learn to use it Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word of God Lute Iv 4 57 This Is a temptation to presume on Gods care white doing recklessly like challenging peculiar risks because we are Christians The place is the temple fu the holy city The suggestion is agaia made that lIe is

Because Thon hast made Jehovah my refuge the most high Thy habitation Ps xci 9 Those who dwell la God will not do reckless things for those who do thus are not abiding in God 810 This last is kingdom

and cILule Til 1010 1010Tills Tills Is a very touching and InstructIve Incident In the life of Christ Tho manifestation of the poor womans womanslove love Is touching In the extreme and the happy way In which Christ used her act to teach the Pharisees an Important lesson displays His wonderful abil ity as a teacher Christ Is being en tertained 1 In the home of a Pharisee A poor woman whose sins He bad pardoned comes with a box of ointment and touchingly anoints Ills feet washes them with tears wipes them with her Lair and kisses them The Phari see complained and In answer Jesus spoke to him a parable In which lie showed that one loved In proportion as he bad been forgiven He then pointed to the great love of the woman as proof of the great debt for which she bad been forgiven We may leans with Simon 1 A lesson on forgiveness This woman had sinned much and yet she was forgiven It Is thus taught that the forgiveness of God can be manifested towartf the very lowest of sinners It was difficult for the Jews to compre bend this fact with all Christs teaching yet after Christs ascension they did not comprehend the fact that the love of God and the forgiveness of God extended to the publicans and sinners And do we fully realize it today Do we not speak of men and women as hopeless thus abridging the pardoning power of God Do we not look askance at a poor wandering sinner who may by chance have dropped into the house of God as much as to say This is no place for your And If one does repent with tears and sorrow are we not slow to recognize him as the child of God The Simons are not all dead Let us learn Christs lesson to them 2 A lesson on love This poor woman loved much because she was much forgiven She was not forgiven because she loved but loved because she was forgiven Do we love much If not may It not be that we do not realize how much we have been forgiven Simon would probably think that Christ put His debt at a high figure and often we do not realize the greatness of Gods forgiveness In forgiving us Is It not true that the best of us have been much forgiven If we think not let us try to see sin as God sees It let us try to realize the enormity of that which separates a soul eternally from God and we cant help but see that we have been much forgiven And being much forgiven we should love much and should confess and manifest our love before men Sweet
