Paul and Silas made their way through Syria and Cllleia until, by devious ways, they came to the narrow pass of the Taurus mountains. On their journeying they added to their group young Timothy, a resident of Lystra. At this time, Paul received young Timothy into the church. Traveling on, establishing new churches and encouraging old ones, they came at last to Troas, the Troy of Homer's Iliad.

Hoyt ;' When Paul of Tarsus and Bar-1 ! nabas set out upon their first mis- < sionary journey, they took with them the young cousin of the lat-i 1 iter, a youth named John Mark. Iti< j was his duty to assist the two in | their work. He was to find quar- ( Iters for them, prepare food, in’er-' ' view visitors if need be, herald • ■ I their meetings abroad and make ] 'himself a useful adjunct to the ■ 1 expedition. Hut before long the ] 1 way became rough. John Mark i decided he had enough. He quit | i the expedition and went back : , home. When the time came for thej' second expedition. Barnabas Pt' p -|, { pared to take his young cousin : ' with him again. But Paul refused to accede to this request. "John I < Mark failed us in our emergency," |< was his argument. "He left us | when we most needed him. This . * is no place for weaklings. He can- ] not go." On this disagreement the • expedition spill. Paul went bis way and Barnabas went his, tak- ' ing John Mark with him. This John Mark was the man 1 who jn later years was to write j the second gospel. He was to I prove himself a true Christian in the fullest sense of the word. He > ■ was to redeem himself by good I j deeds and noble actions and to ■ find a place for himself among the|< I writers who recorded the story of E | Christ and his associates. The man who had failed made < j good. Realizing his weakness as * 1 an inexperienced youth, he fough’ ' valiantly and overcame them. He succeeded because determination and endeavor gave the qualities ' which he had lacked; and brought], , him back into a position of power and authority. ' Failure need not discourage us. I i It is from failure that success is « I built. Let us profit by our mistakes and so mold our lives that , > we find happiness and fruition in later years. . (

It was while they were in the city of Troas that Paul was visited by a vision. He beheld a man of Macedonia standing beside him saying: “Come over into Macedonia and help us.” Accordingly Paul summoned his companions and went into this country. Reaching Philippi, a Roman metropolis, the evangelists went forth on a sabbath to the river, a place of prayer, and conversed with the women who came there.

The period covered was 50-52 A.D. The places visited were Troa=. Neapolis. Philippi. Thessalonica and Beroca. 3. Paul and Barnabas were to have traveled together, but Barna-! i has insisted that his young cousin. John Mark, again be a member , of the party. Paul refused since Mark had deserted the previous expedition. Barnabas and Mark, went by themselves to Cyprus, ' and Paul set out with Silas. 4 Paul and Silas traveller! until they came to Troas. Then. ] 'as Paul rested one night, he be- ■ held a man standing beside him saying: “Come over into Mace-, dona and help us." ■I 5. Paul’s party had been joined I iat this point by Luke, author of ! the third gospel, who had come | I from Macedonia.
