devout Christian men. I myself have been in the Cabinet forty-seven years, and dur ing all that time I have been associated with sixty of the chief intellects of the cen tury. I can but think of five of those sixty who did not profess the Christian religion, but those five men respected it. We may talk about questions of the day here and there, but there is only one question, and that is how to apply the gospel to all cir cumstances and conditions.’ ”— 1,000 Acts and Facts, by P ickerin g .

Y. “Yes.” The Bible says, “Owe no man any thing.” Here are bills from the telephone com pany and the gas company, and they are marked “PAID.” Here is a very small bill. It is less than a dollar. It is for the morn ing paper. Are small bills supposed to be paid the same as large ones? "Yes, we should pay our debts, whatever the amount is.” Well, this last bill is not paid. It Is for taxes, and is much larger than any of the other bills. What would happen if I did not pay this bill? “Your property would be sold to pay it.” , Yes, the tax bill must be paid. In look ing at this unpaid bill, I am reminded of a debt the Apostle Paul had to pay. Can any of you boys and girls remember what it was? This was not a bill, but a debt. He said, "I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise” (Rom. 1:14). Paul was not meaning that he owed these people money. He meant that he ought to give them the gospel of Jesus Christ. He was willing to give his life in order that he might pay this debt. You and I who know Christ as Saviour are debtors to those who have never heard the gospel. I am wondering whether we, like Paul, are willing to say, “I am debtor,” and "I am ready.”
slaves. How Paul wanted to preach the gospel to them! But It was many years be fore he could make the journey; so he wrote this letter to them. He wrote the let ter for all these different kinds of people to read. First he talks to the Gentiles and then to the Jews. Then he talks to people who thought themselves pretty good, and then to ones who knew that they were wicked. To all of these people he says the same thing. This is what he says, "I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.” Paul had no other message but this—to carry the good news of the gospel to every one who would listen. This message—of the Lord Jesus’ death for our sins, and of His living again—is be ing carried around the world today. Min isters preach this gospel in the churches, and missionaries carry it to the people far away, and you and I can tell it to our friends each day. This was the message which Jesus told His followers to go into all the world to preach. Object Lesson I. O. U. Objects: Several bills marked "PAID,” and one unpaid. Lesson: Are people supposed to pay their bills?
