LESSON 2.—JULY 12.—CEREMONIALISM LEADS TO BONDAGE.

NOTE.—This series of lessons is entitled, "Studies on the Gospel Message." For introduction and excellent suggestions as to their study, we refer the student to the Lesson Quarterly.
ALTHE the Lord had done so much for His people (Isa. 5:3, 4), yet they did not yield the fruits of righteousness (verse 7). Their service was mere formalism (Isa. 29:13); their confidence was placed in that which was merely external (Jer. 7:4), and their ceremonialism became an offense to God (Isa. 1:11-15). Thus what was given as a means of salvation from sin was perverted into a place of protection for sinners (Jer. 7:9-11), and this led to the announcement of the destruction of the temple (verse 14), and the scattering of the people (verse 15). Confidence in the flesh left the people under the power of sin (Jer. 17:5, 6), and this made them the prey of their enemies (Jer. 5:6). The evil which was deferred during the days of Hezekiah (2 Chron. 32:26), began to come in the days of his son. The sin of Manasseh was very great (2 Chron. 33:9), and all messages of reproof were disregarded (verse 10). Then the Lord used other means of dealing with His people (verse 11), which had the desired effect (verse 12), and opened the way for the Lord to work a deliverance (verse 13). The wicked reign of Amon (verses 21-23) was followed by a great reformation under King Josiah (2 Chron. 34:33), but the next king returned to the evil ways of his fathers (2 Kings 23:31, 32), and Jerusalem became tributary to Egypt (verse 33). The people lost their independence, and a foreign king appointed their ruler. 2 Chron. 36:4. A continued course of evil (verse 5) brought upon the people the wrath which was kindled in the days of Hezekiah (2 Chron. 32:25), and Jerusalem came under the power of Babylon (2 Chron. 36:6, 7).

QUESTIONS.

  1. Who were called upon to judge of the Lord's dealings with His people?
  2. What inquiry showed the fulness of His provision for them? What question reveals their failure to meet His expectation?
  3. What fruit ought the Lord to find upon His "pleasant plant"? What did He actually find?
  4. In what ways did the people make a profession of religion? What was lacking? What became the basis of their teaching?
  5. What shows that they had lost sight of the reality of the teaching of the sanctuary and its services?
  6. What were some of the outward forms of service which the Lord Himself had established for His people? Why did He reprove them for their zeal in these matters?
  7. To what extent had the people perverted the central feature of their worship? How is the same thing being done to-day?
  8. What former experience would be repeated as a result of such a perversion? What would become of the people?
  9. What kind of trust fails to deliver from the curse of sin? In what comparison is this truth taught?
  10. What relation was there between the sins of the people and their ability to hold their place among the nations?
  11. What delayed the evil result of Hezekiah's wrong course?
  12. What indicates the greatness of the sin of his son?
  13. What did both Manasseh and the people reject?
  14. What other means did the Lord then use to bring them to repentance?
  15. What effect did this have upon Manasseh?
  16. What deliverance did the Lord then accomplish for him? What lesson did this teach him?
  17. What course did the son of Manasseh pursue?
  18. What happened during the reign of the son of Amon?
  19. What is said of the reign of the son of Josiah?
  20. What befell the nation as a consequence of his conduct?
  21. What event proved that Jerusalem had lost its independence?
  22. What kind of record did the newly-appointed king make?
  23. What king came to make war against him? With what result?
  24. What event definitely marked the beginning of that downward course which ended in the Babylonish captivity?

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL

LESSON 1.—JULY 6.—THE GIVING OF THE MANNA.
Lesson Scripture, Ex. 16:4-15, R.V.
4 “THEN said the Lord unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in My law, or no. And it shall come to pass on the sixth day, that they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily. And Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of Israel, At even, then ye shall know that the Lord hath brought you out from the land of Egypt; and in the morning, then ye shall see the glory of the Lord; for that He heareth your murmurings against the Lord; and what are we, that ye murmur against us? And Moses said, This shall be, when the Lord shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for that the Lord heareth your murmurings which ye murmur against Him; and what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against the Lord. And Moses said unto Aaron, Say unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, Come near before the Lord; for He hath heard your murmurings. And it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud. And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God. And it came to pass at even, that the quails came up, and covered the camp; and in the morning the dew lay round about the camp. And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness a small round thing, small as the hoar frost on the ground. And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, What is it? for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, It is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat.”
Golden Text.—“Give us this day our daily bread.” Matt. 6:11.

SUGGESTIVE QUESTIONS.

(1) In reply to the murmuring of the Israelites, what promise did the Lord make to Moses? Why did the Lord thus answer? Verse 4. Note 1. (2) What was to come to pass on the sixth day? Verse 5. Note 2. (3) Then what did Moses and Aaron say to the people? Verse 6. (4) What would they see in the morning? What estimate did these leaders place upon themselves? Verse 7. (5) What further promise did Moses make? Against whom were the people really murmuring? Verse 8. (6) Then what command was given to the people? Why? Verse 9. (7) As this command was given, what did the people see? Verse 10. (8) What did the Lord then say He had heard? What promise did He repeat? By this what were the people to know? (9) How was this promise fulfilled? Verse 13. (10) How is this “bread” described? Verse 14. Note 4. (11) What did the people say when they saw the manna? What did Moses say of it? Verse 15.

NOTES.

1. Proving the People.—The Lord had brought His people out of Egypt that they might have liberty to serve Him. Ex. 7:16; 9:1. Now comes the proof as to whether they will serve Him when they have the opportunity to do so. Serving Him meant then, as before and since, walking in His law. As this was some weeks previous to the audible speaking of the law on Sinai, it is evident that the law had a previous existence.
2. The specific test of faith lay in the recognition of the Sabbath. The double portion on the sixth day was a preparation for the Sabbath, that it might be observed as a holy rest-day. From this test we learn that previous to the experience at Sinai God regarded the observance of the Sabbath day as a special feature of His service.
3. Murmuring against the accredited servants of God is murmuring against God Himself. Jesus, when sending out His disciples, said to them, “He that heareth you heareth Me; and he that rejecteth you rejecteth Me; and he that rejecteth Me rejecteth Him that sent Me.” Luke 10:16.
4. The manna and its preparation are more fully described in Num. 11:7, 8: “The manna was as coriander seed, and the color thereof as the color of bdellium. And the people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in a mortar, and baked it in pans, and made cakes of it; and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil.” David calls it the “corn of heaven” and “angels' food.” Ps. 78:24, 25.
Read, if possible, “Patriarchs and Prophets,” pp. 292-298.

SUNDAY LEGISLATION BY CONGRESS.

SEVERAL bills for more strict Sunday enforcement in the District of Columbia have recently made their appearance in Congress, and an interesting public hearing on the matter was held before the District Commissioners on May 27. This hearing will be reported in the next (July) Sentinel of Christian Liberty. The importance of this matter should secure for that number of the Sentinel a wide circulation.
The July Sentinel will be a special number, in that much of the matter contained in it will have special reference to the principles of the Declaration of Independence and the present striking national trend away from them. Some recent notable expressions on this subject by such men as Professor Goldwin Smith, President J. G. Schurman, Senator Hoar, and others, will be presented. The words of great Americans of the past with reference to the Declaration and its principles will be presented side by side with recent declarations, thus showing the great change of sentiment that has taken place regarding the fundamental principles of the nation and of liberty.
The best portions of an excellent address on "Religious Legislation" recently delivered in Boston, Mass., by Mrs. Stella Archer-Maloney, will also appear.
And by no means the least important feature will be the news of the month in the way of Sunday agitation and enforcement. There is a great deal being done just now in this direction. The Sentinel will keep a close watch, and make a full report every month. On this point there will be a report of the action of the Presbyterian General Assembly on the Sunday question and the discussion attending it.
Subscription price to the Sentinel is but $1 per year, and large numbers should send in their orders in time to receive this number. Arrangements should also be made to dispose of thousands of extra copies. A special low rate of 5 cents per copy will be made when ordered in lots of ten or more.
Address all orders to The Sentinel of Christian Liberty, 11 W. 20th St., New York City.

TO CONTRIBUTORS.

The Signs of the Times is a purely missionary enterprise. For this reason it has felt free to ask for contributions from its friends. It pays nothing for contributions, either prose or poetry, unless solicited by the editor, and then the fact is stated when the articles are asked for. This is a plan rarely followed, but sometimes deemed expedient.
Articles Desired.—Those which set forth in the Spirit of Christ the great saving truths of God, short and to the point. It is better to treat one important truth clearly, in a short article, than many points vaguely in a long one. We desire no caustic, critical productions, which might minister to personal pride or pleasure, but can not save souls.
How Prepared.—Write plainly, with typewriter or ink, with wide space between the lines, to freely admit of editing, writing of subheads, etc. Write on one side of the sheet only. Sign the name to the manuscript, as it becomes oftentimes separated from accompanying letter. Anonymous contributions are not used, whatever their merit. If the writer does not wish his name to appear, let him furnish a pseudonym for the public. But we wish the name.
Manuscript Returned.—We will return all unused manuscript desired if stamp and directions are inclosed. We are forced sometimes to return good manuscript mainly for three reasons: (a) Sometimes the articles are too long; (b) sometimes we have a number on the same subject; (c) sometimes our plans are such that an article can not be used till it is out of date. We therefore hope that no offense will be taken by those who have freely contributed their best thought if their productions are returned. When we receive so much matter, we can not use all.

The Protestant Bible and Religious Liberty

The editor of the Torch of Reason tells us that "until the people are emancipated from the Catholic Church, the Protestant Bible, and the belief in the supernatural, there is no hope for this world." This is all true as regards the Catholic Church, in the darkness of the extreme recoil from whose tyrannous superstition, the editor is now enthralled. But he would not have the liberty to print these utterances of his, had it not been for the "Protestant Bible" and the Reformation that Bible wrought despite of superstition. The Anglo-Saxon race would have been in the depths of the darkness of pagan nature-worship, had it not been for the light radiating from that Bible, despite the clouding superstitions of apostate Christianity. And those who continue to decry that Bible, "progressive" "agnostics" tho they are, will yet pass through "scientific" Spiritism, fearfully delusive to the soul, and deplorably resultant in its morals, to the bosom of that same Catholic Church. Even then they will call it progress, till the light of eternity, undimmed by human reasonings, shall lay bare the fearful body of corruption in all its ghastly nakedness of death. Christianity still stands open-armed to meet their needs. "Man turns from God, not God from him."

Wielding the Scepter.

Of all the gifts of the Spirit to the disciples of Christ in this world, there is no mention of a scepter. Christ Himself is King in the realm of spiritual things. To His disciples He says: "They which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them. But so shall it not be among you; but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister; and whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all." These thoughts come to mind on reading in a Catholic journal of the resignation of the primate of Australia, Cardinal Moran. The journal mentions the good the cardinal has done "for the thousands of Catholics in that far-off land, over which he has wielded the scepter for many years." To assume a spiritual scepter is to assume the prerogative of Christ, to whom the Father saith: "Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever; a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Thy kingdom. Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even Thy God, hath anointed Thee with the oil of gladness above Thy fellows." Then the one who assumes to be above his fellows assumes the place of Christ, and to aspire to such a position is to place one's self above Him, for only one can occupy that position. And the one who thus sets himself up is called in the Scripture the "man of sin," the "son of perdition." The ambition to wield the scepter in heaven caused the downfall of Lucifer, and puny human beings who grasp the man-made scepter over the souls of their fellow-men, would do well to profit by his example.

Read "What the Word of God Is to Us" on page 2 of this paper. Is it that to you? If not, why not?

The Coming of the Lord

In this issue begins an interesting series on the "Coming of the Lord." Read them carefully.

The Industrial Crisis

Read our Outlook department; there are many things of special interest in these days. Note what John Swinton says of the industrial crisis now upon us.

Martinique and St. Vincent Eruptions

The latest reports from the West Indies say that in the volcanic eruptions on the islands of Martinique and St. Vincent 32,000 lives were lost and property to the amount of $10,000,000 to $15,000,000. The old crater of Mt. Pelee was not active. A new crater was made, consisting of a crevasse that "nearly rifted the mountain."

Building What Will Endure

Some one writes, "Cross words can never die." But praise God they will. All evil shall pass away. All sin shall be destroyed. God's universe shall again be without stain of sin. God will make "all things new." But O, we do not wish to sow or plant or build that which will be destroyed. We do not wish to be identified with destruction. Let us sow, and plant, and build in thought, and word, and deed, that which will endure forever.

Darwinism Declining.

The Homiletic Review notes the complaint of Professor Haeckel that "practically all his former pupils and disciples who have attained prominence in Germany have repudiated his Darwinian views." "Professor Zockler declares that notwithstanding the phenomenal success achieved by Charles Darwin in the proclamation of his evolution theory, which spread into other realms of thought than that of natural philosophy, a mere glance at the history of the four decades since it came before the public makes it evident that 'the beginning of the end is at hand.'" Others are quoted in the same line. The secret of its adoption in the beginning was want of faith in God and His Word.

Wages and the Cost of Living

According to Public Opinion, basing its statement on Dun's index number of prices of staple products and an article in Gunton's Magazine, based on census reports, all of which are considered reliable, there has been an actual decrease in the average wages during the last decade of 1.5 per cent., and an actual increase in the prices of staple products those wages would buy of 1.8 per cent. This means a practical reduction in wages of 3.3 per cent. The decade ending in 1890 made much greater advance in wages and their purchasing power.

Petaluma Camp Meeting

An excellent camp-meeting has just closed in Petaluma, Cal. It was our privilege to attend a part of one day, but that short time was sufficient to observe and appreciate the good spirit of the meeting, which was emphatically a spirit of work. The medical missionary and health work was the central object the day the writer was in attendance; and the interesting experiences told in connection with this work were evidence sufficient as showing its place in the Gospel plan. There are millions of souls suffering under the harder bondage, not of brick and mortar, but of pork, and sausage, and flesh-foods galore, and general unhygienic diet, to whom true, sensible, dietetic reform comes as a message of freedom. The restaurant on the ground, conducted by the St. Helena Food Company, was well patronized, and its liberal provision of fruits, grains, nuts, and vegetables well exemplified true vegetarianism. One specially good feature of the meeting was not work among the young people, but the work the young people were doing in the town among those who know not "the Gospel of the kingdom." And this is as it should be. The apostle says, "I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the Word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one." Even so it ought to be. God's church should be a force, an army, strong, and militant against all evil, for all good, and not a needy field to consume the time of Gospel ministers.

The Last Word

"The Last Word."—L. Kuttner, in the Berliner Klinik, according to Public Opinion, presents "the last word on the diet question." In some cases this German doctor thinks vegetarianism good, but in most cases injurious. At the best it must not be maintained too long. We can but wonder how broad his field of observation has been. We know of persons, many indeed, who have been vegetarians for years, who, in fact, came from the "better" "mixed diet," broken in health, to find health in a vegetarian dietary. They have no desire to return. They have tested the two, and found the flesh diet wanting, and the vegetarian diet eminently satisfactory. Is not their experience worth something? Of course, there is much bad cooking and bad combinations in a vegetarian diet where amateurs blunder and suffer, and may get discouraged. For instance, a "mush diet" is not advanced vegetarianism. Dr. Kuttner may have said "the last word" for himself, but there are many more words to be said yet.

Defy the Beef Trust with Better Food

It would be amusing, if ignorance did not make it so serious, to hear people tell of the great suffering coming to the poor through the high prices of the beef trust, when bread, and beans, and peas, and maize, and oatmeal, and lentils, and fruits galore, can be bought at a reasonable price,—foods better and more nutritious than beef. Let the mythical cow or fattest materialistic Illinois steer "jump over the moon," the true hygienic vegetarian, the eater of grains and fruits, can "laugh to see the sport;" he has a better diet. Try it, all ye beef-eaters. Learn how to cook and use fruits, grains, nuts, and vegetables, and then, single-handed tho you may be, you may defy the beef trust. You can tell them you have something so much better, which makes life worth living.

Toasted Corn Flakes

A new food—and it comes from that most prolific and grandest of all cereals, maize or Indian corn—is "Toasted Corn Flakes;" and it originated in that prolific food-center, Battle Creek, Mich. It is one of the many excellent products of the Battle Creek Sanitarium Food Company. It is cooked in its preparation, and is prepared for eating dry or with fruit juices, malt honey, meltose, cream, or nut cream. It to our palate far surpasses that peerless food in quality, granose. Write the Battle Creek Sanitarium Food Company for description and price list. Their foods are good and pure, and there are many inferior imitations and counterfeits. The above company will send you samples free for the asking.

Archaeology Confirms Biblical Civilization

All the recent archeological finds instead of indicating that prehistoric man was a barbarian, savage, and monkey, show him to be highly civilized, having a literature, a knowledge of mathematics, and of arts and crafts. Of course some few mortals knew this before, because the Bible told it; but the great unbelieving world needs this confirmation of the Book. Will they believe it now?

God Holds the Earth

The Homiletic Review, speaking of the time when the Rockies, and Andes, and Himalaya mountains were thrown up, well asks, "Is the time approaching for another such upbreaking and submergence? Verily God holds the earth in the hollow of His hand."

Mississippi Reduces Illiteracy

Mr. Walter H. Page, editor of the World's Work, tells us in the Independent that "in Mississippi greater relative progress has been made in recent years in reducing illiteracy than in any other State in the Union." This is good.

The Power of the Spirit

The power to reach hearts is not in the long sermon nor the loud talking, but in the power of the Spirit. "Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts."

God Respects Our Free Will

God respects our free will. He will not compel, tho He has all power. The "if" rests with us. Will we co-operate? If we will, there is no "if" as to results.
