LEMON TEXT Rav. 71:1-7, 72-77 GOLDEN TEXT l>hol<L the Über narlr of Go<l Ie with men, and he eh»l dwell with them, and they shall be hh people —Rev. a J. As we approach the end nt the year onr minds torn from the Imperial city where Inst we have nny authentic rec ord of Paul, to the eternal city it which he hns no long resided. In les son ten we studied Jesus Christ In hb resurrection glory, the source of nl power. King of Klugs and Lord o: Lords for the redemption of the hu man race. In Lesson 11 we studle* the gloriiied Christ who Is actually working through his churches is th« j representatives of his kingdom upot enrth. The nicceedlng chapters de scribe In symbols and pictures the dis cfpllne and training of God's peoplt during the long generations that fol lowed. In the lessou for today, w. have a vision of the Anal triumph oi Christianity when It shall have ac complished Its work of redemption It this world. I. Tha New Heaven and the New Eart? (vv. 1-7). John In vision saw the non summation of the work of Christian ity. the visible answer to the prnyei which Jesus Christ taught his disciple, to pray, “thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as in heaven.' Heaven, aa well ns earth, has been In j - vaded and polluted by sin. but botl i alike are to be mnde new. (I Peter 3 :10 11. 13). The true Jerusalem, of which Holomon's was but a type, is of hear i enly and divine origin. It comes dowr out of henven from God.

The klngdon of God is among you. but It ia even tually to be with God and Jesus In i> peculiar and beautiful way. John't announcement came from out of heav en and out of the throne. (1) It was a tabernacle of God with men rather he shall tabernacle with men He Is to pitch his tent among us (Joht 1:14 11. V. marg ) It la to be don, eventually and permanently. Thit dwelling of God among us Iles at th« foundation of the blessedness and gio vies which are to follow. (2) They shall be his people. Israel had beet his people; all nations are to be hb people in the fullest sense. (3) God himself shall he with them, not only his tabernacle but he. himself visibly personally. (4) He shall be their God acknowledged in all hia infinite claims, and he to them all that God Is of love power, wisdom, holiness nnd glory (5) He shall wipe away every tent from their eyes. There will not be a single griet or heartache, unsatisfied longing or tear, for God shall wipe them away, nnd they will stay wiped away, (B) I tenth shall he no more i Os all the enemies, death Is the last i one which shall be taken from th. enrth. It Is sweet to know that tl*4» last enemy is to be conquered. (7) There shall be no mourning, crying ot (mln any more. Every sorrow, agony remorse, gl win, disappointment gone forever; death, tears, mourning all pushed away. It Is hard for us to com prehend the majesty and sweep of thia great nnd glorious promise. (See ) Cor. 15). 11. Ths Coming Light snd Glory (vv 22-27). The Intervening verses are a wonderful description of the founds tlon walls and gates of the city. Thera will be no temple In that city for It will not lie needed. Instead of the temple : which stands for the temple of earth there Is to be the presence of (Rm! himself. I>nt the lamb is also in the midst of It. Nothing can more force . fully Impress u|s>n us the deity and pre- j eminence of Jesus Christ, the atoning lamb, slnln before the foundation of the world. This city Is to he n city of light and gl >ry. It will not be an fl-. lumlnntion by gas nor electricity, for the glory of the Gird shall lighten It Summary. What are tbe lessons fat our day from thia vision of the new heaven and the new earth? first: j That the golden aue of the Bible list. I not yet taaen place. There are better Uti a to come than anything the world hi< yet seen. Second: We have here । tLe positive assurance of the success of our lender and the victory of Chris tianity in Its conflict with evil. Third: Tbe golden ideal of heaven is the means by which we can test our dnlly Ilves and the whole course of our con duct The question we should con stantly aak is. “Are we going to this heavenly ideal?" Fourth: The gates) of that city are op, • ; at angel la at each gate, and shall keep out all evil. God di-slres thnt all men everywhere I should repent, and is not willing thnt i nny should perish. When the tins! assize shall have passed, no one will way that God did not give him n chance nor seek to in spire him to a place of eternal joy at | hl« right hand. Again there Is to be federation ot' the forces of good. Ttwlay we tor. often find Christian people divided, j Invtaton. “And the Spirit nnd th> bride any come, let him that heareth say come, and let him that la athirst, come, and wk -wver will let bun inks I of the water of life freely." —— ■ — 000000000000000 0 » RELIGIOUS SERVICES O TOMORROW.
