"THERE SHALL COME FORTH A ROD; A BRANCH SHALL GROW" Br Rv. C L. Schuster Golden Text "Thou shalt rail hi nam Jesus; for it Is he that ahail aav hit people from their ins." Matt. 1:21. . Lesson Text Isaiah 11: 1-10. Lake t: 8-14. ' ' , And there ahall coma forth a rod not of the t tern of Jesse, and a Branch hall grow out of his roota: And the ipirit of the Lord ahall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of coun sel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord; And shall make him of quick under standing in the feor of the Lord; and he ahall not judge after the sight of kia eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears: But with righteousness shall he Judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he ahall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins. The wolf also shall dwell with the : lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. And the cow and the bear ahall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ex. And the sacking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cocka- lar order of lessons for this data is, Al ine empty iomo ana wiin uie Risen Lord.' But -we ahall lay it aside to study a lesson appropriate to the Christmas time. . The prophet spoke very clearly of the coming of the Messiah, and the character and work of the Messiah who was to save the people from their sins. v The portion of prophecy we study refers to the coming of the Messiah and the blessedness of his kingdom on the earth. The prophet givea us a word picture of the peace and good will to men the coming of the Messiah was to bring to men. How nicely this finds its fulfillment in the song of the angela on the plains of Judea at the time of the birth of the Savior in the village of Bethle- They ahall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth . shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, aa the waters cover the sea. ' - And in that day there shall be a not of Jesse, which shall stand for aa ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be Ctorioos. - . And there were in the same coun try shepherds abiding in the field, . keeping watch over - their flock by night. And, lo the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were sore afraid. And the angel uid onto them. Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tid ings of great Joy, which shall be to all people. ' For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour,' which is Christ the Lord. ' And this shall be a sign unto you; .Ye shall find the babe wrapped in waddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there waa with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying. Glory to God in the highest, and on ccrth peace, good wil Howard men. j The subject that comes in the regu-1 rarely received justice at the hand of those in authority. Righteousness waa to be his girdle, and as the girdle held the garment of the Oriental In place, so in the character of Christ, his unswerving righteousness makes his every attribute and power effec tive. The Messiah's Reign "The wolf shall . dwell with the lamb." r Can we think of more vivid il lustration of the transformation that shall come aa the result of the Mes siah's rign? la the word picture her) used these beasta of prey are changed aa to their very natures and are gentle and harmless.

The Premised Messiah "There shall com forth a rod a Branch shall grow. This eleventh chapter of Isaiah is on of the most remarkable prophe cies in all the Old Testament.

Born into the most humble surroundings and conditions to an obscure family of the line of David, and reared in such an humble home that few if any saw in, him the prom ised Messiah. "Who was to save his people from their ins.' The Bamaritan woman at the well had a sense of his ability when she said, "I know that Messiaa Cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he wil Itell us all thing.1 And the lesson says of him "And the Spirit of the Lord hall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding the spirit off coun sel and might, the spirit of know! edge and of the fear of the Lord." Be would understand the deep want and needs of men and would know how to supply these wants. . It also 1m plies a real understanding of the will of God and a purpose to carry out the wfll of God, and while he is to be king of kings and lord of lords, yet through all his leaching there shows a real purpose of obedience to his Father.
