R.M.
A.-As this query has already been put and answered in Vol. 20 (December, 1894), of this magazine, we give again what there appeared:—"Our Lord pleads that He was not guilty of the wrong, but yet it was His to make good the right. His causeless enemies were innumerable; they were as strong as they were false, and where He was unrighteously charged, He walked in grace, seeking at all cost nothing but Jehovah's glory."
A.-To the believer-who, refusing to yield to the solicitations of sin, suffers thereby instead of gratifying the flesh. As Christ once suffered for sins not His own-Himself the ever sinless One-but ours, so are we called to let this suffice, as well as " the time past of our life," and if now we suffer from without it should be not for sins but for righteousness (3:14), or as a Christian (4:14-16). Arming ourselves " with the same mind " we refuse the evil at whatever cost, that we may live to the will of God.
