John W. B&kett, Clifton. A new year always carries with It a deep sense of responsibility and at the same time a thrill of expectancy. That Is why we need to begin this new year—-and continue it—in the study of Gad’s Word, so that we may know his will. You will find it to be a joy and blessing to you, not only as .you .study it by yourself, but also in the fellowship of those in the Sun­ day school and church. Our lessons for the next three months are of unusual interest, for they take up the Gospel of John which was "written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name” (John 29:31). Jesus Christ is here presented as the Word (Logos), and he is indeed the living Word come to reveal God to us. I . The Living Word Is the Light of Men (vv. 1-5). Men ask questions about Christ. They want to know whether he is to be regarded as a good man and a great leader, or must we recog­ nize him as being God? The answer is here. He "was” in the beginning (Gen. lr l) , which means that be pre-existed from all eternity, and h e "was God" even as he was “with God." This eter­ nal, living, divine Word was. the "ex­ press image", of God (Heb. 1:3), and so perfectly revealed the Father (v, 18). He i s ih e Creator (v. 3) and giver of life both natural and spiritual. This*eternal Word,became (as he was) the light of men. He came to shine into the darkness of a sinful world with the only light of redemp­ tion. We sa y again, "This is the Lord!" H. The Living Word Is a Divider of Men (w . 6-13). The darkness of sin was so deep, and still is so deep that the glorious light of God is not received with gladness, nor accepted at all. We see that in the close of verse 5. Now the question comes, Does it make any difference how a man regards Jesus Christ? The answer is clear. You must decide what you will do with him. You cannot avoid that decision or evade that light which shines. You must either accept or reject, and a failure to accept is a rejection. God has witnesses to the Light. John was such a witness and he,, like all true witnesses for Christ, directed attention to him. John’s great testimony was just a lesser light to point men to the true Light. That true Light is shed abroad for all men (v. 9). As they face Christ, men divide into two groups. His own people, and his own creation rejected him when h e came (v. 11). How utterly tragic! And yet the same thing goes on today. Men hear the gos­ pel, are made acquainted with Christ and his claims, yet fail to accept his proffered salvation, and •re eternally lost (John 3:19; Eph. 2 ; 1 ). But, thank God, there are those who receive him (v. 12), and to them he gives the power, the right or authority, to be the sons of God. This change is expressly declared to be (1) not by reason of family or heredity—"not of blood” ; (2) not by natural instinct or development —not "of the will of the flesh"; and (3) not by human volition or by •nan’s will power—not "of the will of man." HI. The Living Word. Is. a Re- vealer of God (w . 14-18). The eternal Word, the Lord Jesus Christ, laid aside his place of honor in heaven, came to earth and took upon:himself our flesh, that he might redeem us from sin. What infinite Condescension, what unfathomable love! He dwelt -among men and showed forth the grace and truth of God, for he was full of these heavenly attributes. But it was in his .giving of himself a s Redeemer and Sa­ viour o f mankind that he fully re-* vested God in all his gracious love for us.. Notice the antithesis here. "Law" is set over against- “grace"; "giv­ en” stands in contrast with "came," and “Moses’’ with "Jesus Christ." The law was a schoolmaster to bring us *o Christ (Gal. 3:21), but It could not save anyone; but grace f—oh, it is by grace that we are saved (Eph. 2:8). Moses was God's honored servant, but Jesus was the Son in the house­ hold (Heb. 3:5, 6). It was this Son of God who came to reveal the Fa­ ther and to declare h is grace in sa l­ vation. The Jaw was sen t through a xnejh scugpr, but no messenger, no mat- ter^hew great or worthy, would- do to bring the gospel of the grace of** 3od. That message of "grace and guth came by. Jesus Christ" £s. 17$, 1 O U R P L i P f e E - T O Y O U 1 9 4 7 Washington Letter (Continued frem firsi page) the present time it appears certain the Rules of the Eightieth Congress, of ibqth the House and the Senate, will be the same as provided in the Reorganization Act, with but one or two minor exceptions.
