Golden Text—This Is the condemna-
tion, that light is come into the world,
and men loved darkness rather titan
light because their deeds were evil.
John il!:l!),
(1.) Verses 20-21-Wh.v did the rela-
tives of Jesus think lie was beside
himself?
(2.) Why does a state of intense reli-
gious experience si ill impress the aver-
age man as insanity?
(3.) If the preachers who are inflicted
with empty pmvs should become In-
tensely spiritual what effect, If nny,
would that have upon the size of their
congregations?
(4.) Verse 22—Where is tho scene of
this lesson laid?
(5.) Are Christians who earn their
living by teaching religion liable to
backslide in their own souls? Give
your reasons.
(0.) What reason had these scribes
to think that Jesus was possessed
with tho devil and cast out devils by
fells power?
(T) What is that dangerous and sub-
tle power in human nature which en-
ables a man to believe almost any-
thing lu tho line of his interests or
prejudices?
(8.) Verses 23-20— Why may not Sa-
tan cast out a small demon in order to
make way for a bigger one?
(9.) These scribes admitted tho fact
of Christ’s wonderful miracles; why,
therefore, and by what power were
they performed ?
(10.) Why is it that so many men,
In spite of the fact that Christ’s claim
Is so well established, continue to
mako such foolish attacks on Chris-
tianity?
(11.) How do you account for these
scribes making such a foolish state-
ment that Christ cast out devils by the
power of Beelzebub? (This is one of
the questions which may be answered
in writing by members of the club.)
(12.) Verse 27—What docs Christ pro
pose to do with the devil ("the strong
man”) in so far as the individual
Christian is concerned?
(13.) Verses 2S-30—In what respect
could this sin of the scribes be called
a sin against the Holy Ghost?
(14.) If a mnn sins against light,
knowledge, and continues to reject the
only way of salvation, why is it im-
possible for him to be forgiven?
(15.) As it applies to sinners today,
what would you say is the sin against
the Holy Ghost which never can be
forgiven ?
(10.) Verses 81-35—What would you
think Christ’s brethren and his mother
wanted of him?
(17.) If our most loved friends after
the flesh want to keep us back from
intense spiritual work, what should be
our attitude to them?
(18.) Which relations are the holier
and happier and why, those after the
flesh or those after the spirit?
