Uuon Text: John 18:16-27; IS:
S6-27.
Our lesson of th wk haa to do
principally with th conduct of Pt
r and John during th tint of th
trial and crucifixion of Jesus.
' At th tim of th arrest of Jeaua,
th diaciplca all Uft hlnV and fled.
But Peter and John recovered from
'their fright suff IcienUy to j follow
Him when He was taken to th pal
ac of th high priest, for they were
anxious to know what would be th
outcome of th arrest of the Master.
And while Pete followed at a dis
tance,' and later denied hia Master
and Lord, It ia auppoaed that John
th beloved diaciple waa with Jaus
t all th hearings and trial. John
never give hia own name, but use
th term, "that other disciple." H
waa acquainted with th high priest,
and went In with Jeaua Into th pal
ace. Deapit th fact that Jeaua waa
on trial for Hi life and that It would
im unpopular, if not dangerous, to
bT"known as a friend of 'jeaua, John
kept aa near to Jeaua aa possible.
Do we tak aucb atand for Jeaua J
Th enemiea of Jesus were many
and strongly organised. Th world,
th flesh and the-devil were working
againat Him, and th machinery of
th law was being put Into motion to
destroy Him and Hia work. Then
John atood by.
Standing Tin
Excitement was running high, and
under th moblik condition existing
at th tim, it waa dangerous to be
known as a diaclpl of Jeaua. Bnt
John waa among them all, standing
true to Jeaua, and h had Peter
brought in by apeaking for him to
th woman that kept the gate. Ubw
Peter' boasted courage seema to
have deserted him and he ia fright
ened at even the queation of a girl,
ia shown. But John stands boldly
for the Saviour. May w be like
John)
Following at Dlsjane
Peter cam Into th court. but he
waa still at distance afar off
out with th crowd that waa not for
th Saviour. Out when th sacred
name was held -ia derision, he atood;
whs re no on had good word for
th Lord; where there was no en
couraging Influence to helpl him');
where things looked dark for tha Lord
Jesus. And yet, how could he know
, but that In th desperation of the
hour the persecutors and execution
ers of his Lord would not also send
him to ' hia death along with h i a
Lord? And Peter waa hardly ready
to die as a martyr. He waa not yet
in tha mature martyr spirit.
Th Denial
While Peter ia ahiverlng from cold
and fright out there among those
whom he would not hav to recog
nise him, a young girl thought ah
aaw eoraethlng about him that Indl
jcated that he might be on of them,
' and told him so. II denied it coldly.
And when th men pointed him out
as on of th follower of th Lord,
he. again denied ny acquaintance
with th Saviour. And again for the
third tim b waa spoken to about it,
, and one of th men asked bim point
edly if he were not on of th Bav
I tour's disciples, thus throwing all re
sponsibility directly. And Peter again
denied bis Lord.
Peters Awakening
Then cam th verification of th
words of th Saviour to Peter, The
cock shall not crow, till thou hast
denied ma twice."
Fearful awakening! . Having ao
earnestly declared hia loyalty and
defense of his Lord, now to find him
self with the cock crowing still ring
ing in his ears, and tha eye of the
Master lovingly looking out to bim
and ha among th enemiea-of -the
Lord. . It waa - mora than ha could
bear. II had overestimated hia own
strength, and had underestimated the
severity of th trial to which h waa
to be put
