THE LORD'S DEATH
So far aB history records the lives oi great men they have desired to be romembered because of the lives they have lived. Jesus Christ aifieis from all men in that He desires to be ro membered, not by the things He did oi said so much as by the death that He died. Men spoke about Christ as the great teacher, the great phiiaathroplsl and benefactor, the great moral example. But it was not on these thingi that the apostles laid emphasis. It wa? Jesus as Redeemer a* Savicur tlial they would have- men see. The man who has no cross in his messago has no gospel. He may have a message, but no gospel. Even thal message is demagnetised; it has been robbcd of its drawing power. William Evans, D.Ph., DJX
