Creamed Comments On The Sunday School Lesson _ — ■ ' 11 —■ I

Creamed comments on the Sunday school lesson, “Paul Becomes a Missionary"- Acts 13:1-4; 34:8-1 20 for Sunday. April Z 3. In the town. Antioch, where the first followers of Chrbt were called Chriatians. a praying consecrated < hurch < 'insisting of Jew* and Gentiles, was the first to send out Christian miMlonaiiea. v. 1 "Now there were In the church that wa* at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as llainab:.*, and Simeon, that was called uiger. and Lu< nw of Cyrene. and Manaen. which had been brought up with Herod the tetra.cli ami Saul." Here are many faithful cne* who were not famous but who furnished the backing of the first missionaries » 2. ‘‘A* they ministered unto the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereimto I called them." Here was a spiritfilled church which made ft possible for God to epeak through the Holy Ghost. In an mistakable way God calls men into bis special serI vice. v. “And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.” It is God's will that his work be carried out by an organized human effort signified by unmistakable sanctions. Thia calls for the Christian church. v. I. "So they lieiug sent forth : by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seb-ucia; and fiom thence they sailed to Cyprue." The church gave up their best workers for the extension of the kingdom of God: the church composed of workers with God acknowledged God's <all to their leaders to leave for work ' elsewhere. vs. 8. 9. "And there sat a certain man at Lystra. impotent in his fe.-t, being a cripple front hi* mother's womb. wh u never walked; the same heard Pau! speak; who steadi fa.-tly beholding him. and perceivi ing ths! he had faith to be heali ed." Here was a hopeless case that gave God a chance through Paul to ci eate Christian faith in tin people of Lyetra. v. 10. "Said with a loud voice. Stand uptight on thy feet. And he leaped and walked" Here were the conditions necessary for a miracle. a man who needed help, who had taltb tu the power of God and who was a faithful wervant of God. This physical example is typical of spiritual experiences. v*. 11. 12 "And when the people aaw what Paul bad done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech ol L/conla the god* are I come down to us In the likeness of men The people of Lystra were steeped In the worship of Jupiter and Mercury conceived as supermen; it was easy for them to think of these missionaries as deities of the Greeks. v. 13. "Then the priest of Jupiter. which wa*. before their city i brought oxen and garlands unto the sates and would have done sacrii lice wltb the people.” These pagans had a false worship, here was a good missionary held. v. 14. "Which when the apo.Gee. Barnaba* and Paul, heard of. they i tent their clothes, and ran among ’ the iieopie. crying out." These missionaries would accept no honor, praise or worship, they would not sail under false colors v. 13. "And saying. Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you. and preach unto you that ye should i turn from the vanities unto the liv- : Ing God. which made heaven and , earth, and the sea and all thing*, i that are therein." It is Important that we ask ourselves the question Effective Christian workers most "why" in all that we do and say. be real brother*, “men of like passion.” "Turn from" involved Chr’.s---i tian conversion All false gods are I "vanities " vs. 14. 17 "Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own way*. Nevertheless be left not him*el' without witness. In that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, tiling our hearts with food and gladness ' Paul used natural theology. using such language as his hearers could best understand. The response was great as seen in the next versa. In the following two verses. Paul waa hounded stoned till be , | wa* thought dead by persecutors I from surrounding towns. But he I started right back to the towns from which bin penoxutars had corns and preached with power the gospel ol CUiwt Bo ended Pani a trit ■tstrooa *y jouray .
