Christ declared His Intention of bringing into existence a new body, to the members of which He will give eternal life and into whose hands He would entrust the keys of the King dom. Peter was to have a distin guished place In this body. Christ de clared that Peter should be the founda tion stone In Ills church. Christ Is the chief corner stone upon which the church is built. Christ's person and Messlahsldp were confessed by Peter and on tills rock (truth confessed) Is laid the foundation of the apostles and prophets (Eph. 2:20). All believers are living stones of this house (I Pet. 2:5). The keys entrusted to Peter were used on the day of Pentecost and again in the case of Cornelius. <t> Wtaitrn N«w»j>xp«r Colon I I I .

They had heard Ills wonderfi^ words and wit nessed His mighty works? Various opinions were extant about Him. Since Jesus was soon to go to the cross It was necessary for the disciples to have a detlnite ami true conception of Him. In order to help them into the rigid conception, He provoked this confes sion f r o m Peter as the spokesman of the group of disciples. I. Peter’s Confession (vv. 13-16). 1. How provoked. Two questions of Christ put to the disciples culled forth this great con fession. (1) Whom do men say I, the Son of Man, am (v. 13). 1. He first Inquired for the opinion of the people concerning Him. As a wise teacher He knew that this would help crystallize the view of the dis ciples. The people recognized Jesus us a teacher or a prophet, with more than human authority and power. To day, as then, there is a diversity of opinion among the people as to Jesus Christ. The multitudes today recog nize Jesus ns an unique personality and as having been a great teacher, but that which offends tljem is His deity. (2) “ Whom say ye that I am?” (v. 15). This question involved the personnl opinion of the disciples concerning Him. To lie.able to tell whnt others think of Jesus is not enough. There must he definite, correct and personal belief In Him. Personal belief Is worth Infinitely more than the knowledge of what others think, for npon personal belief hinges character and destiny. 2. What Peter's confession involved (v. 10). Two vital things, the Messlahsldp and deity of Jesus. That which Jesus called forth from Peter is the burning question of today. “ What think ye of Christ?” Is the question that must be unswered by everyone. 3. Christ's commendation of Peter (v. 17). He pronounced him blessed. Truly he was blessed, for lie both possessed and confessed Christ.

Tills Indeed startled the disciples. They did not yet realize that redemption was to he accont pllshed through the passion of the cross. So unwelcome was this an nouncement that Peter cried: “This shall not be unto thee.” Peter later saw through this darkness to the glory of the hilltops. A new hope then filled his heart (1 Pet. 1:3. 4). Many are yet stumbling over the doctrine of salvation and redemption through the suffering of the cross. Salvation fcy blood is hated by the devil. IV. T h e C o st of D isc ip le s h ip (v. 24). To follow Christ means to suffer. It means to turn one's hack upon the world. 1. There must he denlnl of self. There Is a wide difference between self-denial and the denial of self. 2. Take up Ills cross. This cross Is the suffering and . liante which He In the path of loyalty to God. 3. Follow Christ. This means to have the mind of C V ist; to he like Christ. Christ will come In glory to reward all such. any — T h e P ow er o f G od Many a battle has beeu won by the arrival of reinforcements.

Writer Claims Vanity Is Spoiling Language Vanity Is corrupting the French langunge, says Abel Bonnard, a writer of note. It is vanity, he says, that leads peo ple to prefer a new word, coined or front another language, to the old one they really know and understand. “ The public likes to be fooltlB," he remarks, agreeing with Mr. Barnuin. He cites many words used current ly to describe things long used and with names of their own, but which, for commercial purposes, like the hard-working rabbit skin In the fur business, ltnve to be baptized nnevv to create that “desire to buy” In the customer. This vanity to have the latest thing, even when only the name Is new. Bon nard regards ns one of the chief dif ferences between the passing genera tion of conservative people and the “ modernists.” Many people who are “ up to date,” he observes, shy at ex pressing themselves clearly and need obscure words and phrases to portray the haziness of their own minds.

It was built In 1710 during the regime of the colonlul governor, Alexander Spots- wood. Charles Stagg and his wife, Mary, essentially dancers, contracted with William Lelngston for the thea ter. Some years before, in 1066, the court In Virginia acted as play cen sor also, having passed Judgment on a performance of "Ye Bare and Ye Cub” to satisfy a complaint that the costumes were objectionable. The court found nothing objectionable, however. B u rn in g Skin D l i r f l U H q u i c k l y r e l i e v e d a n il h e a le d b y C o le ’ s C a r b o lls a lv e . L e a v e s no s ca rs.

Japan D e v e lo p s Film A r t American motion pictures have al ways been popular In the Orient, nnd those about Indians, and the “ Wild West” have been especially popular. Chaplin films also found a rendy favor, but Japan Is rapidly develop ing a film art of Its own. The most popular film In Japan today Is one called “ Schoolmaster Mntsumoto.” It Is an extremely simple story of the grammar grades, the climax being the rescue by the schoolmaster of one of his pupils who has fallen into the river. The film, though so simple In theme as to arouse wonder among American movie experts, ran for a full year continuously In Tokyo.
