But the movement of 5 joint in a skeleton is not nearly so wonderful to me as the fact that the skeleton of a man Who died when he was seventy years of age represcnis at least ten distinct skeletons, which at different periods of his existcnze walked around under the same man`s pasonality. ` The ph,\‘Sil'fll l>0ll_\` iS continually being changed. This fact being thi-n granted. il' you will Only let the Holy Ghost dwell within the temple which ought in he his, then he will make _vou pliyslcally o\-er anew. Your voice will become softer in gone, because then it Will only Speak the language of love. Your face will change in looks. for then your gent- ler spirit will mold it. Your hand will change its conformation, for then, instead of being the knotted muscles of u human brute or the close fist of g, niiser, looking in its vindictivencss like the grinning gar- goyles of Notre Dame, ready to spring upon their prey below, it will be the opened palm of succor and have the warm grasp of a sympathe- tic touch. Yes, my brother, you can artistically and aesthetically as well as spiritually beautify your physical body. You can surrender it, in the name of Jesus Christ, to be made over entirely anew to his service. A strong temple! A clean temple:

\A beautiful temple! We have been

describing them all. But, after all. what is a temple? A temple is a building dedicated to the worship of a deity. Its four walls inclose a holy place in which that deity is supposed to dwell.. Each temple is supposed to be the personal property of an individual divinity in the same sense as a man’s house belongs to him when the`titlo deed is not only put in the family safe, but also re- corded among the county records.

If this be true what is the next

step? Why, each temple should have

wi"-¢<e- -rw -..-

a day when it is publicly dedicated to the Deity for whom it is built. When the Solomonic temple was to bo at last dedicated tho king made the service one of national import. He assembled in one place all the officers and men-of state, and on that occasion he sacrificed 120,000 sheep and 22,000 oxen.. The rivers of b10od which flowed from that altar signify io us how great an 0¢¢8Si0n thot de* dication must have been.

_ Now, my brother, it is right and proper that every' temple should be

publicly dedicated. When are you

.going to publicly dedicate your

temple, your physical body, to the service of Jesus Christ? This body is a priceless treasure which we should oder him. How~ precious it is but few can fully appreciate unless they lose part of their physical anatomy. The hand-it has carried for us many burdens; the foot-it walked _for us many miles; the tongue--it has ex- pressed for us many a want. When 'are you going to dedicate this body. .this old body of yours, to Jesus

~_Christ? Do you not 'Want tb Ki" it

to Christ, so that he may give it divine rejuvenation?

I never wish to hear a man make

n slighting remark about his physi- cal body. Never say, as do so many, "oh, I do not care what bv- comes of my body after I am dead!°’ You should care, my brother. ~Y0\1 lhould care, in the first place, bc- tause that body has been a good friend to you, and, Secondly, be- Ctuso that body, if it be Christ/s low, is to be "sown in corruption old raised in incorruption," a glori- lsd, immortal spiritual body, dt for ill companionship of the angels and lilo redeemed. Speak no ill about your body- R0* llomber also, my brother, you should not compel your loved ones to do With your body what they do not want to do. "1 shun be cremated."

Text of the Lesson, II Sam. xv, 1.13,

Memory Verses. 4-6-Golden Text, EX- XX, 12-Commentary Prepared il! Rev. D. M. Stearns.

[C°P5"'l¥ht» 1903. by American Prem Association] After the everlasting, unconditional

covenant made with David concerning his son, who would be Isl'uel`s Messltlll, and the kingdom of righteousness, as ‘Corded in our last lesson in this book (chapter vii). we read of David`s great D_l‘0Sperity and righteous reign (viii, 15). Then comes the record of his great sin and repentance, the sin of Amnon and his death at the hands of his brother Absalom, after which Absalom fled to the king of Geshur and remai_ned there three years, but through the pleading of the wise woman of Tekoa, employed by Joab, he came back to Jerusalem and dwelt two whole years without recon- ¢iliAtion to his father, after which, through Joab’s intercession, the king became reconciled to him, saw him and kissed him (xiv, 28, 33). Absa- lom signifies “father of peace,” but his conduct suggests one who is of his fa- ther the devil (John viii, 44). The kl.ng's kiss to Absalom was the loving kiss of a heartbroken father welcoming his errlng son, but the kiss of Absalom (if he did kiss his father) was like the kiss of Judas when he betrayed his Master. This is the third time in fpur- teen years that we have had this por- tion of this chapter assigned as a lesson lnstead of the much more helpful and luxgestlve portion following, but we are asked today to study verse 23, which ls some improvement.

The story of Absalom is one of de-

ceit and lying and treachery and rebel- lion even against his own father. Per- haps there wss no one more wicked. His unscrupulous self seeking, even at the cost of his father’s life, is sugges- tive of the devil, who would if possible dethrone God, and who will yet seek to do so ere the age closes. Make a care- ful and prayerful study of the follow- ing passages and be ever on your guard against all such manifestations. Isa. xiv, 18, 14; Dan. vii, 25; viii, 24, 25; xi, 86; II These. li., 3, 4; Bev. xiii, 5-7; xvli, 14; xix, 19, 20. There are many fore- shadowings on a small scale-poliih clans who will not take up a matter without drst considering how lt may affect their own political prospect; those who, for their own ends, by good woods and fair speeches, deceive the hearts of the simple; those who under pretense of worshiping God have only in view their own promotion and possi- bly the overthrow of some just person. How desperately wicked must have been the heart of Absalom, who, with profession of devotion to God on his lips and his father’s blessing sounding ln his ears, goes forth to carry out his devilish designs against his father. Yet there is an ever increasing multitude who are disobedient to parents and in open rebellion against God (II Tim. ill, 1-5). But as truly as David returned and sat on his throne in peace (xix, 14) so shall our Lord Jesus return and reign Dav1d’s throne, and 'the work of righteousness shall be peace and the effect of righteousness quietness -and assurance forever (Isa. lx, 6, 7; xxxii, 17). There are many ahithophels (fool- ish brethren, the' name signifies) who stand high before men in relation to the king, but who, while outwardly profess- ing allegiance, are really on the side of the -enemy. Let us turn from the dark picture of self and sin to the faithful few who said to David in this dark hour, “Behold thy servants are reach to do whatsoever my lord the king shall appoint,” and to Ittal, who said, “As the Lord liveth and as my lord the king liveth, surely in what place my lord tho' king shall be, whether in death or life, even there also will thy servant be” (verses 15, 21).

To mere natural sight it looked dark

for David, but God had promised that the kingdom would be established for- ever, and there 'were some who had faith in God and were also ready to die with David rather than live with Ab- salom. The tlme was, and in China only two years ago, when to live meant to deny Christ, but many confessed

15-17, a description of coming days, and see in Rev. xiv, 9-11; xv, 2-4, the future of those who deny Christ in order to live and the future of such as die for His sake. Hay we have the spirit of Ittal and of Ruth /and of Elisha (Ruth i,1e,17:11Kinss1l.2.4,6.9).wim=r our determined stand be that of Paul in Phil. 1, 20; ill, 8-10. Note David’s sub- mission and recognition of God in this great trial, f‘Behold, hero am I, let , Him do to me as seemeth good unto
