If, after all, Jerusalem rejected Him, its people should not plead ignorance. They should do so without excuse. Thus without reserve He announced Himsel{ as God‘s Messiah.

St. Mark‘s Gospel, 11: 9, "Blessâ€" ed is He that cometh in tne name of the Lord", was the text cnosen by Dr. P. Thornton Meek at the morning service on Paim Sunday. A comparison was drawn between the : entry‘ of kings into their capitals on state occasions and tnat of Christ when He entered Jeruâ€" salem, Kings enter amid a great display of magniticence and spienâ€" dour and surrounded by evidences of power, pomp and pagentry.

The pastor chose as the subject of his message, the Cross of Christ. The Cross of Christ, he said, divides the ages, and casts its shadow, ‘or its light, athwart every human life. In our conception of Calvary we see three aspectsâ€"first a dying Saviour, second a dying saint, and third a dying sinner, The Cross of Christ is the Cross of Redemption, the crossâ€"of the repentant thief is the Cross of Reception, vrrkile the cross of the unrepentant thief is the Cross of Rejection. _ There are three focal points in time, Creation, ‘the Crucifixion, and the second coming of Christ. The death of Christ demonstrates undying love, and undying sacriâ€" fice, on the part of God Himself. The repentant thief shows how we may ensure our safety, certainty, and enjoyment both for time and eternity by placing our faith in the Son of God who died on Calvary‘s Cross. The unrepentant thief illusâ€" trates most forcibly that none dare presume upon the mercy of God. _ _During the evening service Miss Myrtle Johnston was the guest there are many things that cannot be measured. How often inexperiâ€" ence and youth try to measure certain things and catalogue them, but their meaning and their value are immeasurable. The scriptures cannot be measured. The word of God is a breathing, living thing, "It liveth and abideth forever"./It is like the seed thrown into the soil. It can only be measured when the harvest is gathered. You cannot measure the Church of God. We need to leave the measuring line aside and lend a hand in real earnest and we shall find that things we thought small are beyond our comprehension.
