(Continued from page 588) The above are beacons to warn us of the rocks of error, the shoals of evil, the sand-banks of human reliance, the breakers of unbelief, and the under-tow of fear. An Exhortation We are exhorted to take heed what we hear (Mark 4:24),* and how we hear (Luke 8 :1 8 ). The “what” is the Word of God and the “how” is the faith. We may illustrate how we can do both by pondering several other words which only occur once and which are associated with the Word of God. “To set forth in order”-H(Auatassomai) Luke 1:1 “To set in order” means, as we understand the sentence, to arrange in an orderly manner. The apostle does not mean to take anything that is not reliable or speculative, but he sets in order the things which the believers believed and which we received from “ministers of the Word.” Luka illustrates his declaration, for it will be found his Gospel divides itself into three main sections: I—His birth, childhood, and His ' inception to service (1 to 3 :3 8 ). H—-His temptation, teaching and transfiguration (4 to 9 :3 6 ). Ill—His journey from the Mount of Transfiguration to Olivet via Calvary, and the incidents by the way (9 :3 7 to /end). The word is given to us in its revelation that we may see the beauty of its thought, and find the gold of its truth In all its symmetry, order and grace. “Rightly Dividing’!^ - (Orthotomeo) 2. Tim. 2:15 To “make a clean cut,” or “to dissect correctly,” is the significance of “rightly dividing.” The expression is a priestly one and seems to refer to the priest cutting up the animal brought for sacrifice, such as the peace offering, and giving to the Lord, the offerer, and the priest their several parts (Lev. 7:28 -35 ). How important it is to make a clean cut in presenting the truth and not mix up, for instance, what is applied to a condemned sinner and a consecrated saint; between our standing in Christ and our state in life. “Earnestly Contend”— (Epagonizomai) Jude 3 “To be in an agony” : is the meaning of “earnestly con­ tend.” The word is a compound one. The prefix "epi” means upon, and the other part means to strive or to strug­ gle, and is translated “strive” in Luke 13:24, and “fight” in 1 Tim. 6:12. The word comes from the same root as “agony” (agon), applied to Christ in His conflict in the Garden of Gethsemane. We are to agonize for the faith once delivered to the saints. “Uncorrnptness”^—(Adiaphthoria) Titus 2 :7 The incorruptible truth is the only thing that can give uncorruptness in teaching. Christ warns us against putting the leaven of error and evil with the meal of God’s Word (Matt. 13), The three measures of meal may be taken to illustrate the truth about the three persons of the Godhead. To mix the error of the universal Fatherhood of God is to corrupt the truth that men are only the children of God by faith in Christ; to mix the leaven of the denial of Christ’s deity is to corrupt the truth of His essential Godhead and personal glory and make Him only a man; and to mix the error of the denial of the personality of the Holy Spirit is to make the Spirit a mere influence, which error cuts at every truth of the Gospel.
