flush the whole wort of christ and toe events connected with his incarnate life mchidlng his death- and resurrec tion are merged into hie higher and tnore comprehensive idea of revels uon- not that cbrlst simply came in tbe flesh only to reveal the love of ood for sinful humanity john is concerned to show that jesua was not a quasidivine being which ood used simply as an mstovment of revelatfon- but jesusu is ood himself vl who is active in working the works of ood himself in creation v 3 and in re demption vs 12 13 16 the revela hon oi neceesity incrudes tbe cruel llxion as an objective expiation for human sin the whole purpose of tbe incarnation is summed up in tbe words of john tbe baptist to his dis dples as he points jesus out to them 29 behold the lamb of ood which taketh away the sin of tbe world lite st paul st john sees christ in conflict with the power of sin and in his death on the cross he sees him triumphant in chapter 12 as jesus looks forward to death he cries now is the ludgment of this world now shall the prince of this world be cast out and i if i be lifted up will draw all men unto me that is draw them away from sin and as he actually faces death at the last he says that the prince of this world cometh and he batb nothing in him 14 jo the death of christ is not treated as a humiliation but as glor lous victory we must notice too in studying this gospel that the faith and benef of the reader is not centred upon either tbe works or the teaching of jesus as saving agencies not even upon his death as an atonem for sin ra- vbr8atile olsefe la

tber does he centre the belief of rea ders upon tbe person of christ him self since be stands on this side of the cross and interprets the person of christ in tbe light of the cross we must say that he directs tbe faith of readers towards the person of cbrlst crucified but an ever living p civ 2 the same was in the begin ning with ood i am the way the truth and the life no man com- eth unto tbe

es cape tbe fact that tbe t in his gospel is not so much on what christ does and teaches although that is definitely inseparable from his person but upon what he is in him self the way the truth and tbe life tbe redeeming word of god tbe spiritual food and drink of believers john tbe baptist is one who conies to bear witness to him and yet ac tually tbe christ was existent before john he was before me v 5 the ministry of jesus was after that of the baptist but john is fhrniring here of tbe eternal relation of christ to tbe purpose of ood is mentioned in this lesson as a symbol of tbe ok
