T THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT., JAN. 12, 1939 Sunday School Lesson LESSON III PETER SEES CHRIST'S GLORY Matt. 17: 1-18; 2 Peter 1: 16-18 Golden Text. -- We beheld hi. glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father. John 1: 14. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.--Autumn, A.D. 29. The Second Epistle of Peter was written somewhere near A.D. 05. Place.--Almost certainly on Mt. Hermon, in the northern part of Palestine. We do not know where the Second Epistle was written. 1. And after six days. This means six days after the great confession of Peter, and the rebuke that Peter received immediately afterward. Jesus taketh witL him Peter, and James, and John his brother. Those three of his. disciples who were most closely linked to him in heart and thought. And bringeth them up into a high mountain apart. That the transfiguration took place at night is the opinion of most students. The Transfiguration 2. And he was transfigured before them. No one can say exactly what the word here translated "transfigured" meant in the life of Christ, figuratively or spiritually. And his face did shine as the sun, and his garments became white as the light. The light around was more than a robe put on from the outside. It was an emanation from the fountain of light within. These were rays that streamed forth from his own natura; and herein is the difference. In the ease of Moses and the dying Stephen. 3. And behold, there appeared untc them Moses and Elijah talking with him. T hese two men were the representative leaders of the Hebrew theocracy. Moses was the embodiment of the law, Elijah of the prophets. 4. And Peter answered, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, I wil. make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah. Peter makes the great mistake here in, as it were, classifying the Lord Jesus among the great characters of Israel, as if the Lord was to have no more glory on that mount than Moses and Elijah were to have. He certainly does not give any pre-eminent place to Christ. Words From Heaven 5. While he was yet speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed tticfti. And>behold, a'voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am -ill pleased. On two other occa-. Jbns a supernatural voic. brought •testimony to the Lord Jesus: at his baptism (Matt. 3: 17), and lo-wara the close of his life, on Sunday before the passovcr (John 12: 28) Three apostles could never agree that they heard certain words, at the same time, and in tho same place, unless such words were actually uttere:'. Thirty years after this Simon Peter still remembers that he heard a voice on the mountain. The voice was none other than the voice of Cod the Father. The voice added, Hear ye him. 6. And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. 7. And Jesus came and touched them and said, Arise, and be not afraid. 8. And lifting up their eyes, they saw no oik. save Jesus only. The disciples needed to learn that Christ's true glory was in suffering. They saw nothing in the cross but shame and defeat. This vision was to teach them that the cross was his throne. Back To The Multitude Matt. 17: 0-13. !>. And as they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saving, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen from the dead. Any report on the part of these three disciples of what they had seen, Christ transfigured, would at that time have been rejected on the part of those to whom the story the i not in any me of Chris of his Messiahship. multitude, there ca ■nhaiK , the nd i times into the water. 16. And 1 brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him. 17. And Jesus answered and said. O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him hither to me. The disciples had little faith; the father believed, I and did not believe. This prevalence of perverse unbelief made it painful to live amid such a generation, and to suffer or bear with them. 18.2 And Jesus rebuked him; and the demon went out of him: and the boy was cured from that hour.

Goebbels is reported under, a cloud as the result of a horse-whipping given him by friends of Actor Gustav Froelich, who objected to him forcing his attention on Froelich's beautiful wife, Actress Lida Baarova. Hitler is reported to be angered by the scandal. Frau Goebbels is perhaps Germany's most influential woman.

The apostle Peter, after having preached Christ for more than thirty years, is writing this second letter to other Christians, presumably Hebrew Christians, scattered throughout the world, to encourage and strengthen them in the faith, and to con-vi ce those possibly in danger of departing from the faith, through persecution, that there in no life, no hope, no power, and no future glory, outside of Christ.

His Hobby Was To Hoard Steel "Bruce Steel King's" 30 Tens of Steel Blocks Have Gone Under the Hammer ■ore than 30 tons of steel in blocks and bars offered for sale near Walkerton recently at the auction of the effects of the late Joseph Schmidt, known as the "Bruce Steel Kins" through his eccentricities in buying this commodity in large quantities remains unsold as a result of bids ranging no higher than $7 per Ion. Refused High Price »ne block of steel, purchased by Schmidt two years ago, weighing it is'estimated, eight tons and for wjch the deceased paid, it is stated, $2,000, was put up for sale and dr?w a bid of only $25. In all it is believed that Schmidt had purchased,'more than $5,000 worth of steel, including saws, hammers, sledges, bars and blocks from earnings accumulated from his labors as a farm helper and bushmau. The amount received by the estate apart from the blocks unsold w*ld amount possibly to $100. Schmidt, who died less than a year ago at the age of 75, had made a Mbby of buying steel and in war time refused a high figure for what he then had on hand. ' Handling Cream After Separation Remove to Clean, Sweet-Smelling, Well Ventilated Place, And Cool Thoroughly The fact that the separator is kept clean and runs properly, does not necessarily prove that good cream will be on hand at churning time or that good butter can be made from it. The proper care and handling of the cream is an important phase of the question. The milk must have been produced from clean cows, in a clean barn, into clean pails and by clean and careful milkers. It must have been removed from the barn immediately after milking to the separator. Remove cream immediately after separation to a clean, sweet, smelling. well ventilated place and cool thoroughly. The cooling prevents the growth of bacteria that are in the milk and therefore keeps it flavor and condition good. It should be cooled to below 50 degrees Fahrenheit and held at that temperature Are You. listening ?
