PAUL IN ATHENS AND CO BIN TH LgtaSON TEXT -Aclt 17 M ita: It: 14; I Corinth uni 1 22 23 MEMORY SELECTION — For other foundation can no man lay than that la laid, which la Jeaua Chriat—l Corinthian* 3:il. History repeats itself, in spiritual things as well as in secular event*. The experiences ot Paul at Athena and Cerinth are peculiarly applicable to our day, for hero he encountered the very problem* which face (and have apparently stopped) the church today The cities were not far apart in miles, and they were both pagan, but they differed widely in their cultural and commercial development Athena was the home of a godless culture. Corinth was a proaperoua commercial center known throughout the world for groaely licentious living. What did the gospel accomplish in such cities? We shall soon see I. Godtoxa intrltoctwality Meets the Goapel (Acts 17:22-2fia). Paul was alone in Athens. He had been separated from his companions Silas and Timothy (Acts 17: 14). and was to await them at Athens. While he waited he looked the city over and found it wholly given to idolatry (v. IS). This was no idle observation of a scientific mind, for it caused Paul's spirit to stir in him. It is a bad sign when a professed Christian can live in the presence ot sin and false worship and not be deeply moved by it. Paul did something about itl He went into the great daily gatherings of philosophers and gave them some solid Christian philosophy to work on They were curious to know more, and when the opportunity arose, Paul preached the sermon on Mars Hill. He found them superstitioualy religious, but religion does not save. They even feared lest they had forgotten some god. so one altar waa "to the unknown God" (v. 23). Thia gave Paul his opportunity, for he declared the one true God—unknown to them—as the answer to their question. The intellectual felt superior and had an idea that God needed him, a kind of snobbery which is as current in 1940 as it was in Paul’* day. How effectively he disposed of that attitude appears in verses 24 and 25. They needed God. and without him they eould not draw a breath! Moreover, the pagan intellectual then a* now would swell with pride as he thought of the race and people to whom he belonged. They were superior —a master race. Paul declares God’s truth that all men are of one blood, and that the nations are in bis hands (v. 2fi). What they had to do, and what the godless intellectuals of our day need to do. is to seek God in humble repentance and faith; then live* can becowa fine and noble and useful (vv. 27. 32-34). 11. Sophisticated Immorality Meet* the Gospel (Act* 11:1-4). To Corinth Paul came (evidently still alone) without friend* or funds. Like all wtll-bred Jewish boys, he knew a trade. He waa a sail maker and tent maker. Rather than have the ungodly men of Corinth hinder his preaching by the criticism that he was doing it tor money, he supported himself. The minister who is eager for rich financial return, and who is willing to accept the gifts of the ungodly that his work may prosper, has closed the door for bis testimony to many who do not believe. In fact, one wonders whether ho has any real testimony to give. In this wicked city, given over to vice arid fleshly pleasure, Pau) made his way to the synagogue and began to preach Christ. He reasoned and persuaded and won some for the Lord as he continued with them for a year and a half (Acta IS: ID. Paul’s letter to the Corinthians reveals the struggle of the believers at Corinth to maintain moral standards and spiritual warmth in such a city, but it also dearly indicates that tne gospel of Christ is "the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth" (Rom. 1:18), ■even in the midst of sin and corruption. I 111. The Gospel Meets Sta-and la Vfotortoua (L Cor. 1:22-29). ■ The wisdom of thia world—for which Athens stood in a special way —becomes foolish in the eyes of men, as it is already in the sight of God, when it stands up against the gospel (read vv. 18-21). The preaching of the cross, which looks foolish to the worldling (v. 23), is the wisdom and the power ot God. and by P. men are saved. Whether Jew or Gentile, whether , seeking signs « wisdom, whether ••up-and-out” byway of pa< an intellectualism or * byway ot immorality—no matter what man’s race, or bls problemghe answer is In the gospel which we are privileged to teach and preach, for it is the gospel of •■Christ the power of God and tae prisdom es God” to all who are •ailed by him.
