King's Business - 1954-12

and perceived that they were un­ learned and ignorant men, they mar­ velled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.” The Lord Jesus is looking for peo­ ple today who not only will talk for Him, but also will walk straight for Him, no matter what it may cost them. OBJECTS: A stone heart (plaster of Paris), a rubber heart (cut from a rubber sponge), a heart made from modeling clay and a cameo. LESSON: Do you know what this is I hold in my hand? “ A cameo.” Yes, and I am going to let this cameo represent the likeness of Christ. Did you know that Jesus came into the world in order that He might save us from sin and make us like Him? I brought three kinds of hearts with me this morning. This first one is a stone heart. I will press the cameo Jan. 30, 1955 L ost and F ound against it and see whether the heart will receive the image. It is like hard-hearted people who will not re­ ceive Christ as Saviour and bear His image. Did you know that the Bible, in Romans 8:29, speaks of our being conformed to the image of Christ? Here is another heart. It is a rub­ ber heart, and while it readily re­ ceived the impression of the cameo, it does not keep it. As soon as the cameo leaves this heart, the heart loses the likeness. Some people are just like this. They are impressed in a meeting to accept Christ as Saviour and bear His likeness, but when they go out and are with their old associates, they forget about Christ. This wax heart is like people who please God. I press the cameo against it, and immediately it receives the impression and keeps it. God wants us to receive Christ as Saviour and then to live in such a way that others will see Jesus in us. What kind of a heart have you? Does it refuse Christ, or does it receive and reveal Him to others? Adam and Eve lost the image in the garden, but you and I find it again in Christ. END.
