CASE FOR THIS WEEK.

INTERESTING CASE of a LITTLE BOY.

Mrs. A. Lee first brought her son to me on Sept. 11 last year. She was then residing at Thornton Heath.

The little boy had commenced ailing from the Christmas before that date. Inflammation of the lungs took place; after which he gradually declined.

When brought to me his cough. was distressing, so violent at night tha it almost choked him; the breathing was very bad; he had wasted, and had gradually become weaker, so that hope of saving him had almost fled. Instructions and advice were given personally and by letter from time to time, and medicine continued to the following spring.

From that period the little patient continued well. The following is an extract from a letter I recently received from Mrs. Lee:-"I am thinkful to say that my little boy is quite restored. He has grown so stout and looks so well our friends are all astonished at the change. Your advice and medicine, by God's blessing, have been the making of him. Please accept my best thanks. Make what use you please of my humble testimony. A. LEE (now living at), 8, Gorham Place, St. Clement's Road, Noting Hill."

Records come of precious souls being led to Jesus Christ by these cards, and others brought under Christian influence. Millions are asked for by Missionaries and others, who are able wisely to distribute them to the nations afar, but have not the means to purchase. To meet this need we pray God to send gifts and bequests, also increased sales. For new list send stamped envelope to Mrs. Grimke, Prestwich, Manchester, or apply to Elliot Stock, 62, Paternoster Row, London.

Mission to Deep Sea Fishermen.

Five Mission Vessels are cruising amongst the North Sea trawling fleets. 12,000 smacksmen are engaged all the year round in providing our tables with fish. These men, who for us toil through furious blast and sleety storm-who hazard their lives and fall victims, hundreds of them, to the pitiless waves, that markets at home may be well supplied-may rightly claim some small share in the privileges we so richly enjoy and so highly prize.

THIS THEY CAN ONLY HAVE

THROUGH THE PRESENCE OF THE
MISSION VESSELS

carrying to the fishermen the message of Divine mercy and pardoning love, bringing the pleasure of books to while away the weary hours, affording relief in case of sickness and injury, and cheering and brightening dull and monotonous lives by their presence and ministry.

"The Mission Smacks are doing in the North Sea a grand work, worthy of the support of a great maritime nation like England; and I believe that the results of their effort, great as they are in the present, will, if only supported liberally by the public, be of untold value in the future."Edward Birkbeck, Esq., M.P.

FUNDS are greatly NEEDED to enable the Society to place a Mission Vessel with every fleet.

"ALL OF ONE."

HEN the apostle speaks of Sanctifier and sanctified

WHEN tied as "all of one," he lays emphasis

on their unity, and yet how far removed from each other they once were! The Eternal Son of God dwelt in the glory with the Father, while man, down here, banished from Eden, lay under the righteous curse of God. How is it possible to bring these two, so distant and different, into union complete and eternal? Certainly it is impossible for lost ones on earth to climb up to the throne in the highest heavens. Men may dream of a glorious ascent, whereby, earthliness being left behind, they shall scale the steeps of glory and enter into the home of the blessed; but when the dream passes they find themselves still wanderers upon the face of the earth. Not more surely does gravitation bind the body to earth than sin binds the soul to this present evil world. Like the first Satanic prescription for becoming like God, all subsequent ones proceeding from the same source only lead us further away from Him.

Nevertheless, although "oneness" with Christ is impossible to us from our side, it becomes real through the descent of the Son of God to the place of our habitation and through His acceptance of the penalty of our sin. If there come a Divine Sanctifier, then even here on earth there may be sanctified men. The glad tidings told to the shepherds unfold the purpose of God. The angels reveal the advent, indeed, of a Child who would be found lying in the manger at Bethlehem, yet they significantly speak of a "Saviour who is Christ the Lord." The Incarnation is the first step to the Cross,

and its whole meaning is not seen until the veil of the Temple is rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the meaning of that is only fully seen when on the third day thereafter the stone is rolled away from the sepulchre to give free egress to the Prince of Life; and the full meaning of this only appears forty days thereafter, when the risen Christ ascends from Bethany to the Father's throne; and the full meaning of the ascension itself only becomes known when ten days thereafter the Holy Ghost descends on the disciples in Jerusalem and endues them with power from on high. Then at Pentecost the "oneness" secured by the shame and suffering and sacrifice of Calvary is clearly manifested.

For man's redemption the Lord of Glory had become the Man of Sorrows; the sinless One had consented to be made sin; the blessed One had submitted to be made a curse; the living and the holy One had poured out His soul unto death, and was numbered with transgressors. He voluntarily made Himself one with us in our doom, and died our death.

But it was not possible that He should be holden by the cords of death. On the third day He was "declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead" (Rom. i. 4). When, in due time, He ascended to the Father, the Apostle Peter in these words witnessed both to His resurrection and enthronement, "This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, He hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear. For David is not ascended into the heavens but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye bave crucified, both Lord and Christ" (Acts ii. 32-36).

The Captain of Salvation had been perfected through sufferings. The sufferings made good His' right to lead many sons to glory. For their sake He had sanctified Himself, that they might be sanctified through the truth. He separated Himself as a sacrithrough the truth. fice that they might be separated as sons. He made Himself one with them in their ill-desert that He might make them one with Himself in His merit. He took the cup of wrath that He might give them the cup of blessing. And now to those who were enemies He has given the spirit of sonship. They who were far off have been made nigh, and we all have access by one Spirit unto the Father.

BOTH WAITING.

ON the eventful Paschal night before Jesus went to the garden of Gethsemane "they sang an hymn.' ,, On that same night, while assembled in "the upper room furnished," the Revealer of the Father spake much to the disciples concerning Him from whom He came and to whom He went. Do the words in the twenty-second Psalm, the Psalm of the Cross, refer to these two events? "I will declare Thy name unto my brethren; in the midst of the congregation will I praise Thee" (Psa. xxii. 22). Be it so or not, the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews finds in this verse of the Psalm an evidence of the oneness between the disciples and their Lord. He recognises Him as at once the Revealer of the Father's name and the Leader of the Church's praise. And the praise follows the revelation. For it is only in the knowledge of Him who sent His Son to be a reconciliation for our sins we find worthy material for acceptable song. "We love Him because He first loved us."

Another Psalm speaks with wonder of God's care
