He died and was bur ied but the grave could not hold Him "And behold, He is alive forevermore"! What a thrilling reality to know that "He lives within my Heart". Docs He live within your heart? Do you know the Christ "whom to know aright Is life eternal? Are you a real Christian? A Christian is a Christ man. Not simply Chrlst'sman, but a Christ man. A Christian Is one in whom Christ reproduces Himself by the Holy Spirit, so that he relives the life of Jesus. Christ is to speak through the Christian's lips, see through the Christian's eyes, hear through tho Christian's ears, work through the Christian's hands, and love through the Christian's heart. To the measure of the Christian's God given talents to be what Christ was and to do what He did. A Christ Ian is also a disciple. A disciple is a learner. Readiness to re ceive Instruction, willingness to be corrected; eagerness to please the Saviour-teacher, these are some of the marks of the .true disciple. "The entrance of His Word giveth light."
