Christ, the hope of the world, may be symbolized by a star, leading men to a better life, and pointing them heavenward. The magis and shepherds found Christ through the light and guidance of the star of Bethlehem. Christ is revealed in all the Scriptures, both Old and New Testament, as the Saviour for All, and Forever. The Bible has been, and is, such a star today, and by its light all men may be led to Christ which taketh away the sin of the world.
BLACKBOARD ILLUSTRATIONS, &c.
In 2 Pet. i. 19 reference is made to the Word as a light shining in a dark place, and to Christ as a day Star. The points of the star, the lights and shadows composing it, all point to or centre in Christ.
In the diagram the various portions of the Bible that make up the grand luminary are indicated as follows: P. for Pentateuch; H. for Historical Books of the O. T.; Po. for Poetic Books; L. Pr. for five Longer Prophets; S. Pr. for Shorter Prophets; G. for Gospel; A. for Acts; E. for Epistles, and R. for Revelation. The whole Bible shining as one star, with the pre-eminent purpose of bringing all men to a saving knowledge of the truth as it is in Jesus; and to illustrate the universal reign of Christ and His salvation for the whole human family, we represent upon the outer points of the star the far-off nations or races of the world. C. for Caucasian, or white; A. for American or Indian; E. for Ethiopian or Negro; Ma. for Malay; Mo. for Mongolian. All of which, through the enlightening and converting influence of the gospel, are to be brought to know Christ as the Lord of lords and King of kings. "Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Does his successive journeys run; His kingdom stretch from shore to shore Till moons shall wax and wane no more." 1. Come unto me.. "COMES" OF CHRIST. 2.
