I. THE GOOD MAN'S RELATION TO THE WORLD OF WANT.

1. The good man is approachable.

2. He is sympathetic.

3. He is unostentatious.

II. THE DEVIL'S RELATION TO GOOD MEN. HOW did these Devil's men use Christ?

1. They resorted to personal abuse — "This fellow."

2. They ignored the value of the greatest blessings.

3. They insulted the plainest common-sense.

4. They attempted to trace good results to a bad cause.

5. They falsified the deepest and truest instincts of human nature.

(J. Parker.)

KJV: Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.

WEB: Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him and he healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.
