We need but to recall that this class was at this time definitely hostile to Christ, yet this young man dared to apeak the conviction of his heart in this public way by calling Jesus, "pood." We feel that he was art honest seeker after life. TII3 question reveals the unrest of (ho human heart. It matters not men may possess of wealth or position, these thing3 do not bring heart rest. Great moral courage, noble aspirations and benevolence never will saye nor fully satisfy the human soul.

Man doea not obtain life by doing, Gal. I ifo is a gift, Rom. 23. We must not misunderstand the reply of Jesus (v. IS).

Jesu3 did not deny being good, John 8:29, but he saw that this young man was filled with the idea of hla own goodness.

"How hardly" Increased wealth, decreased piety. "How hardly" men seek to tone down this picture, but have no right so to do.
