imagine that he is himself about upon a level with Jesus ( as we hear that some of you do), let him come forward in this trial and say “Follow me”— “ be wor­ thy of me”— “ I am the light of the world”—“ Ye are from be­ neath, I am from above” — “ Be­ hold a greater than Solomon is here.” Take on all these tran­ scendent assumptions and see how soon your glory will be sift­ ed out of you by the detective gaze, and darkened by the con­ tempt of mankind! Why not? Is not the challenge fair? Do you not tell us that you can say as divine things as He? Is it not in you too, of course, to do what is human? Are you not in the front rank of human develop­ ments? Do you not rejoice in the power to rectify many mis­ takes and errors in the words of Jesus? Give us then this one experiment, and see if it does not prove to you a truth that is of some consequence; viz., that you are a man, and that Jesus Christ is more!

The role of deity in flesh is consistent to the center -of conscious and subconscious re­ sponse.

Jesus of Nazareth disowns all repent­ ance. He never acknowledges sin. He never expresses regret. He evidences no awareness of mistakes, no feelings of com­ punction. He does not sense a need to ask anyone for forgive­ ness. Now, human piety begins with repentance. We cannot conceive a truly devout person who does not acknowledge un­ worthiness before the perfection and holiness of God. The hu­ mility of the Master is without inward humiliation and in this He stands alone. The very

After centuries

o f primitive savagery, AFRICA GOES MODERN! Education is the key to A frican progress. Every year thousands more Africans are learning to read. With this skill comes new knowledge, new ideas, new yearnings for progress. The growing literacy is also the key to evangelization in modern Africa. Now Africans are reading, but not enough of them have the Word of God. The Pocket Testament League cam­ paign is vital to modern Africa. We are distributing the written Word to thousands each month. The demand for Scriptures is growing daily. If modern Africa is to be a Christian Africa, they must have the Word now. Your prayer fellowship is vital. • Write today.
