43-52).
1. The sign to the mob (w. 43-47).
With the basest hypocrisy Judas
pointed out Jesus to the mob by a
kiss, the sign of love.
2. Jesus forsaken by all (vv. 48-52).
At the sight of His betrayal, one
of Jesus' disciples attempted to de-
fend Him by resorting to the sword,
but seeing that He made no attempt
at resistance they all fled. Their
courage failed them in the hour of
trial. How little man knows of his
own weakness until the crucial hour
comes.
II. Jesus Before the 8anhedrln (vv.
53-65).
1. Contradictory testimony of false
witnesses (vv. 53-59J,
The chief priests and all the coun-
cil sought for witnesses against Jesus
to put Him to death, but they found
none because there was no unity of
testimony. They accused Him of hav-
ing declared that within three days
He would build again the temple if it
were destroyed.
2. The high priest's questions (w.
60-65).
(1) "What is It that these witness
against Thee?"
To this Jesus was silent, showing
that no evidence had yet been given
worthy of an answer.
(2) "Art thou the Christ?
To tliis He definitely replied, "I
am," and quoted a Scripture passage
which they recognized as referring to
the Messiah. This claim they an-
swered with buffetirg and the most
shameful treatment.
III. Peter Denies His Lord (w.
66-72).
Though Peter loved Jesus, yet in
the hour of supreme trial be failed.
Grevious as his sin was, it was not
like that of Judas. His failure was
due to: (
1. Boasting self-confidence (w.
29-31).
2. Lack of watchfulness (v. 87).
3. Neglect of prayer (v. 88).
4. Service in the energy of the
flesh (v. 47).
5. Following Jesus afar off (v. 54).
6. Seeking comfort among the
Lord's enemies (v. 67, ct Luke 22:55).
7. Open denial (w. 68-72). His
backsliding really began when he
shrank from the cross.
IV. Jesua Arraigned Before Pilate
(15:1-15)
In the early morning after the trial
before the high priest they bound
Jesus and delivered Him to Pilate.
They acted freely In this according to
the evil desires of their own hearts,
yet He ■ was delivered up by the de-
termined counsel and foreknowledge
of God (Acts 2:23). The Jews would
gladly have killed Him, bttt they had
-not the authority to do so. They de-
livered Him to the Gentile governor,
thus involving the Jews and the Gen-
tiles in the crowning act of the world's
-stu. Pilate questioned Him without
delay for they accused Him of pre-
tending to be a king. "Tbou sayest,"
was His only reply. To the slanderous
accusations of the chief priests and
elders He made no reply, to the utter
astonishment of Pilate. Pilate sought
to release Him because be was con-
vinced of His innocence. After sev-
eral unsuccessful efforts to escape re-
sponsibility, the expedient of letting
the people choose between Barabbas
and Jesus was resorted to. He no
doubt thought that Jesus would be
chosen rather than the notorious
Barabbas.
Cast Thyself at Hit Feel
The fever of worldllness that burns
in the blood, the Hi-temper, the un-
kindness, the Impatience, the dreadful
malady of avarice that turns the heart
to stone, the dim vision of Himself,
the fretting fear, the foolish envy-
how loathsome in His sight Is that of
which we make so little 1 Cast thy-
self at His feet until He make thee
clean I—Mark Guy Pearse.
IN
MEMORY OF MRS. BERTHA
SIMES
Our Obedience
God wants work of us. He offers
His power to us If we will work with
Him. Greater deeds than have ever
been done do not wait upon His will
Ingness but upon our obedience.—
Robert E. Speer.
On May 22, 1928, the death angel
passed through our town and claimed
for his own a loving wife and mother,
Mrs. Bertha Simes. We can only
bow our heads in submission to His
will and say "Thy will be done."
Sister Bertha Simes was born
November 12, 1905, in Collin County,
coming to Bedias when seven weeks
old where she was reared, except three
years spent in Wisconsin She was
Miss Bertha Smith before her mar-
riage to Mr. Harmon Simes, Oct. 21,
1923. To this union was born one son,
who died in infancy. Besides her
husband, she leaves a father, mother
and brother, Mr. Earl Smith of Bedias;
one sister, Mrs. Roy Harrison, of
Huntsville; and a host of friends and
relatives to mourn her death. She
was a very devoted wife, a true friend
and a Christian. The seeds of kind-
ness that she has sown will bear fruit
for many years to come.
The home-going of darling Bertha
brought sadness to the entire com-
muntiy and town, but our loss is
heaven's gain. In her early girlhood
days she professed faith in Christ and
united with the Mount Pleasant Bap-
tist church in the summer-^f 1919, of
which she was a member at the time
of her death.
The remains were laid to rest in
the Baptist cemetery of Bedias, May
23. The service was conducted by
Rev. Bro. Hamleton, Bro. J. T. Ep-
person and Bro. Ferrett. A large
concourse of people and a beautiful
floral offering attested the esteem and
respect in which darling Bertha was
held.
May the blessings of God be uponi
her bereaved loved ones is my prayer.
I know every thing looks dark to you
now, but there is a silver lining to
this dark cloud which will be lifted
unto you that will cause, you to un-
derstand ife all. It is heart rendering
for us to give up darling Bertha, but
God knows best. She was in her
youthful blossom,, only 22 years of
age, and the first link to be broken in
our cottage pcayer meeting, where
she has been a' faithful member sinue
1921. Her vacant place can never
be filled. But Jesus whispers:
AUTO
ACCIDENT
DRIYER
o
INJURES
We read of many peculiar causes
of auto accidents. Lester Nicholson
is now in the hospital as result of ter-
rible crash.
The sun and wind caused him to
have a bursting headache and he
states he did not see a culvert.
Many accidents are caused by head*
aches and many motor trips are
spoiled by a throbbing headache.
If you suffer from severe, throb-
bing, bursting, nervous sick head
aches, have neuralgia, rheumatism
of joints or muscles, dental aches or
earache, can't sleep soundly, are ner-
vous, you should at once get a tube
of twelve A-Vol tablets, 25c size;
thirty tablets, 50c size—the new pre-
scription for pain. Over 20,000 doc-
tors, dentist and nurses prescribe
A-Vol daily because they know it is
absolutely harmless. A-Vol does not
contain aspirin, acetanilid or any
heart depressant. It stops pain in
five minutes, or your druggist will re-
fund your money. A-Vol does not
numb the pain as do the older types
of pain reliefs—it acts by relieving
the nervous tension. That's why A-
Vol acts so quickly and why it
leaves you feeling so fine and full of
pep.
You owe it to your Self to try this
new discovery. Keep a package in
your car at all times.
