Jesus Christ was come?  A. Yes; she said, the Master is come, and calleth for thee.  Q. Did Mary go to meet Jesus Christ?  A. Yes; and when she saw him, she fell down at his feet, and said, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.  Q. Did Mary weep?  A. Yes, and the Jews that were with her.  Q. What is weeping?  A. To cry.  Q. Did Jesus weep?  A. Yes; and the Jews said, Behold, how he loved him.  Q. Did the Jews say any thing else?  A. Yes; they said, Could not this man that opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?  Q. What took place next?  A. He went to the grave, and told the persons that stood by to take away the stone.  Q. And when they took away the stone, what did Jesus Christ do?  A. He cried, with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth; and he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot, with grave clothes, and his face was bound about with a napkin.—­Jesus saith unto them, loose him, and let him go; and many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen these things which Jesus did, believed on him.  Q. If we wanted any more information about Lazarus and his sisters, where should we find it?  A. In the Bible.  Q. What part?  A. The eleventh and twelfth chapters of John.

I have had children at the early age of four years, ask me questions that I could not possibly answer; and among other things, the children have said, when being examined at this picture, “That if Jesus Christ had cried, softly, Lazarus, come forth, he would have come.”—­And when asked, why they thought so, they have answered, “Because God can do anything;” which is a convincing proof that children, at a very early age, have an idea of the Omnipotence of the Supreme Being.  Oh, that men would praise the Lord for his goodness to the children of men!

PICTURE OF THE LAST SUPPER.

Q. What is this?  A. A picture of the Last Supper.  Q. What do you mean by the last supper?  A. A sacrament instituted by Jesus Christ himself.  Q. What do you understand by a sacrament?  A. There are two sacraments, baptism and the holy supper, and they are both observed by true Christians.  Q. We will speak about baptism presently, but as we have the picture of the holy supper before as, let me ask if it is called by any other name?  A. Yes; it is said that Jesus kept the passover with his disciples, and when the even was come he sat down with them, and as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave to his disciples, saying, Take, eat, this is my body.  Q. What took place next?  A. He took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it them, saying, This is my blood, the blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many.  Q. Did Jesus command this ordinance to be observed by his people?  A. Yes; he said in another place, This do in remembrance of me (Luke xxii. 19).  Q. What ought those persons to remember who do this?  A. They should remember that Jesus Christ died on the cross to save sinners.  Q.
