John came, who baptized in the ? wilderness and preached the baptism of repentance unto remission of sins. 4 The word "repentance" means "to s turn around," "to change one‘s mind," "to reverse one‘s attitude and verdict." It is not here said that baptism will secure the remission of sins, but that baptism was a public recognition that the heart had reâ€" f pented of sin. Baptism for adults, i unless there is repentance and a . washing away of sins by the Lord u."Jesus, is of no value whatever, but really a mockery,. "There Cometh After Me" 7. And he preached, saying, There cometh after me he that is mightier than I. John here implies that he too is strong, the divine strength of the word having Been given to him.

Mark 1:3. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.â€"We do not know exactly when John the Baptist began his preaching, but it is generally assignâ€" ed to the summer and fall of A.D. 26, while the baptism of Jesus took place in January, A.D. 27, and was immediately followed by the temptaâ€" tion. Place. â€" John‘s _ preaching took place in Judaca, the southern part of Palestinc, which included the city of Jerusaiem, thoush most of it was probably done on the eastern side of Judaca in the Wilderness near the Jordan River, where also Christ was baptized, and somewhere near which, possibly on the eastern side of the Jordan River, he was tempted. th of Go« holine: gotlen I send my mess who shall prep ther is actuall concerning the precede him an inc. 6, And John was clothed with camâ€" el‘s hair. This probably means that John wore a long, loose robe woven from camel‘s hair, a garment of coarse texture often worn by the exâ€" treme poor. And had a leathern girdle about his loins. "The girdle kept the robe from flapping apart, and enabled it to be tucked up for rapid walking." only & Th early Make ye ready the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. Joseâ€" phus, when describing a march of Vespasian, says that with the vanâ€" guard of an Oriental procession were *such as were to make the road even and straight, and, if it were anywhere rough and hard to be passed over, to plane it, and to cut down the woods that hindered their march, that the army might not be tired‘."â€"Thomas M.

I baptized you in water; but he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit. The contrast between the work of the Baptist and that of the Messiah amounts to this, that the mightier One who is to follow John will do the real work of which the Baptist is able to perform only the sign. Water cleanses only the body. But the Holy Spirit is the clement in which man is cleansed inwardly and really, and it is this real baptism which the coming One was to perâ€" form." Jesus Baptized 9, And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee. Nazareth was located midway between the Lake of Galilee and the Mediterranean Sea. And was baptized of John in the Jordan. 11. And a voice came out of the heavens, Thou art my beloved Son, in thee I am well pleased. This is the first of three declarations heard from heaven; the second being at the transfiguration and the third being just before the passion of our Lord. There can be no question that the voice here heard was the voice of nor.e other than God the Father. Of no other person in all history were these words spoken from heavâ€" en, or could they be literally true. And straightway the Spirit driveth him forth into the wilderness. The strong urge of the Spirit met the conâ€" sent of Jesus. He did not go into this temptation against his will. Yet Jeâ€" sus did not throw himself into this temptation of his own accord. Jesus was brought into it by his Father‘s own Spirit. This means that his temptation had to be, and at this very time . It was God‘s will to have his Son‘s ministry begin with this mighty battle against Satan and with the resultant victory. "Jesus recognizes that the office of John was of divine appointment. Though he had no personal need of baptism, by refusing or neglecting it he would (if he had not â€"been baptizâ€" ed) have cast discredit upon the work of John." Furthermore, our Lord formally identified himself with the human race in its sin and degraâ€" dation. 10. And straightway. Coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens rent asunder, and the Spirit as a dove descending upon him. _ The appearâ€" ance of the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove is indicative of the gentleâ€" ness and pureness of the One upon whom the Holy Spirit rested. 13. And he was in the wilderness forty days. Forty is almost always in the Scriptures used as a symbol of testing, of trial, of suffering, of punâ€" ishment. Christ could not be temptâ€" ed in his divine nature, for God can never be tempted to evil. The tempâ€" tation relates only to the human naâ€" ture of the Lord Jesus. And he was with the wild beasts. By inserting this phrase Mark probably intends only to emphasize the loneliness and the wildness of the environment in which Jesus was tempted, And the angels ministered unto him. An Austrian, asking for divorce, said :"My wife‘s skirts are far too short. She doesn‘t seem to mind how much of her legs she shows when the wind blows." She produced evidence that she was merely being fashionâ€" able. Case dismissed. Workmen are still breaking up the metallic wreckagd of the famed Crystal Palace in London, Brgland, 13 months after it burned down. . Still At Work on Ruins of Crystal Palace From Hollywood comes word that Mickey Mouse, with Minnie, and othâ€" ers of his famous gang, is starting a series of programs on Sundays from the Mickey House Theatre of the Air, which is aired over the coastâ€"toâ€"coast NBCâ€"Red Network from 5:30 to 6:00 p.m. It‘s a little over six years, now, that Mickey has been bringing smiles and hearty laughs to movie patrons and devotees of the comic strips, but now he comes in voice directly into the homes of radio listeners to enliven their Sunday afternoons. Behind the voices of Mickey and his gang will be the music of Felix Mills, noted Hollyâ€" wood musician. Bringing Mickey to the radio is another leat in Walt Disâ€" ney‘s crown of laurel. Already, the antics of the lovable comics have brought fame and fortune to their creator, A native of Chicago, Disney found the study of art a troublesome problem in his youth, and it was not until he left his native city and setâ€" tled in Kansas City that Mickey was born. It was there that the first Mickâ€" ey Mouse movie was created. The working staff of the Disney studios at that time was Walt and his brother, Rol. Today, the Disney studios emâ€" ploy six hundred persons. Piano Team‘s Double Wedding The two piano team of Lou Snyder and Murray Ross, playing under the name of ‘The Sophisticates of the Piano," over CBC and the Mutual Netâ€" works, is perhaps the most popular piano team in Canada. We understand that a double wedding is being planned by these boys at some date in Februâ€" ary, and this should be quite a novel feature in itsel{. Both Murray and Community Singâ€"Song We dropped in last Sunday to see the Community Singâ€"Song out at the Century theatre. Stan Francis, the genial M.C. of the program, turned in quite a nice performance. The little surprises that come in about the midâ€" dle of the program are somewhat original, Vince Boyd, the man behind the piano, is quite a favorite with the audience in the theatre, and turns in a sparkling piece of solo work durâ€" ing the program. The tickets are free, and all are. welcome. Lou are very much attached to their respective young ladies, who are, by the way, nonâ€"professional.

The boys scrimped and saved to buy instruments, and what were too expensive for them they made themâ€" selves. Between them they play two clarinets, two guitars, a bass fiddle, and a collection of pots, pans, washâ€" boards and tin horns, and believe me, they make music out of it. On top of all this, George Boyd, the tin horn exâ€" pert, imitates a trumpet and does a choice bit of singing. To say nothing of the vocal triog and quartets that the boys have arranged. Harvey Temâ€" plar, Alfy Enning and Tommy Ellâ€" well, constitute the remaining memâ€" bers of the organization. About a year and a half ago the boys were taken in tow by Wally Armour, conductor of the Pond‘s program, and after much work he has produced a smart musiâ€" cal band with just these four boys. Aired Six Thousand Amateurs The Good Humor Amateur Show, heard every Sunday at 12:30 over an eastern network, is blazing ahead, bringing to the microphone new voices and new novelties. It is now about one year since Good Humor started the amateur contests, and in that time approximately six thousand amateurs have been auditioned, and approxtâ€" mately three hundred have been preâ€" sented to radio listeners. In the next fow weeks the Good Humor people will conduct the final contests, the winner of which will be sent to Hollyâ€" wood for screen and voice tests, From what we have seen of this talent, we feel that the lucky one to be sent down, will make a good stab at sucâ€" cess in the glamor city of the world.

He said he had been "more than impressed," in reviewing activities of the department during the last year, "by the large number of instances in which typhoid fever, undulant feyâ€" er, summer diarrhoea and other disâ€" eases which are readily transmitted by milk appear to occur with fixed regularity as a result of the inadeâ€" quacy of the present safeguards."

Nearly 400 years ago the Dugue Florenca, a galleon of the Spanish Arâ€" mada, was destroyed off Tobermory harbor, Isle of Mull. She is said to have carried to her grave untold treasâ€" ure, including 30,000,000 gold ducats minted when Philip of Spain was at war with England‘s Queen Elizabeth, Whether the story is fact or fiction will be determined shortly by Herr Van Wiener, Dutch engineer and inâ€" ventor of a new type of diving apparâ€" atus, who has obtained permission to raise the hulk.
