Creamed comments on the Sunday school lesson, Paul Champions Christian Liberty, Galatians 2:121; for Sunday, June 14. Paul wrote the epistle to the Galatians while a prisoner at Rome. There were sticklers for the law at work in the Galatigg church and there was need of correction at that point; this gave rise to Paul’s writing to the church. Y.l. ’’Then fourteen years after, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took (*Titus with me also.” Payl bases hikJetter on bis experience at the Jerusalem conference held fourteeir-years after his convereipp. at whilQh time he made his report of the conversion of many Gentiles. V. 2. ’’And I went up by revelation and communicated to them that gospel which I had preached among the Gentiles, but prtvhtely to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.” Paul was a diplomat in that he first had a conference with the leaders. He would have it known that he was divinely guided in this conference. V. 3. “But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.” Having Titus, a converted Greek Gentile, with him Ln the Jerusalem conference, was a challenge in that he was not bound by the ceremonial law of circumcision. V. 4. “And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage.” Here was a situation similar to the one iu Galatia. Paul reasons by example. V. 5. “To whom we gave place by subjection, no .not for an hour, that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.” As Paul stood firmly as to great facts of the gospel at Jerusalem so he was doing now. i , ..... V. 6. “But of those who seemed somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me; God

To achieve accomplishments, to gain goals, to attain character, one must be willing to treed an up-hill road. Under bis feet he must trample his failures and defeats or they will accumulate so high that he will be smothered in their wreckage. He must keep climbing or perish. To follow the ine of least resistance means failire; the criminal became such beause he would qot climb the uphill road but followed evil lines of action without pressing upward, and forward. Paul has the formula —“I press toward the goal dir prize of tbe high calling in Christ Jesus.” CLERIOUS SAYS: Clericus says: "Thia requirement of the. law was that' the sinner must suffer punishment for his sin. The law justified bo one; it condemned everyone. Jesus Christ took the place of the sinner, suffered for the sin of all mankind ind by so doing met the requirenents ot the law, cancelled it, rendered it ot no further use and offered men salvation from sins over which they havp no power.”

acceptetb no men’s person) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me.” Somewhat means something. Paul seems pretty much stirred when he wrote these words. Compromise without casting aside CVistian principles and fundamental Gospel teachings was tolerated by Paul, but he was adamant on the basic truth that no man is saved by the law and that only salvation by faith in Christ will stand., $ V.7. "Buti contrariwise, when • they taw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committeed unto me as the gospel of circumcision was to Peter; (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the GentiJee)|. ,, The verdict at the Jerusalem conference was a historic evidence that he, Paul, was especially called to preach to tbe Gentiles who should be accepted without ceremonial tests, just the same as Peter’s special call to convert the Jews was called. Y>. “And when James, Cephas and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right bands of fellowship, that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.” It was conceded that the Spirit worked through Paul and gave him success.

V.lO. "Only they would that ws should remember the poor; the same which I was always forward to do.” Here was one test of ths genuine conversion of Christian converts. Liberality and spirituality go hand in hand. V*.19,20. “For I through tbe law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God. I a/n crucified with Christ; nevertheless I live; yet hot I, but Chriat liveth in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God. who Ipved me and gave himself (or met” Here is the epitome of the gospel in profound Christian experience—a life so fully surrendered to God that Christ takes complete possession. There is no cancellation of the grafee of God as indicated in the next verse. —Based on copyrighted outlines prqduced by the. division of Christian education, national council of the Churches of Christ in the U.

Lesson Prayer; Lesson prayer: We are grateful for a fuller reyelatlon of God in Jesus Christ in whom and by whom salvation is offered to all men. Forbid that we should live in the past and depend upoq the laws and custom of former days as sufficient for our deliverance from sin. Grant that Christian fellowship may deepen our spiritual lives and provide strength and encour-i agement to render needed Christian service. D« Yeu Knew Who asked the following questions: 1.

A New Program of Education In view of the fact that we are fast becoming a military nation* which takes the youth of our country but of high schools and colleges, provisions are being made to give these lads and lassies specialized educational training, especially in lines that will make them better citizens. With capable chaplains, there are provided religious programs and helpful religious teaching, and because of favorable receptivity, some stalwart religious men and women are produced. While world peace is the universal hope, our men and women under arms understand peace in terms of righteousness and. justice. Fighting for the right pervading the soldier’s life is what the world needs most. When seeing the right and doing it with all our might is an established fact, then we may expect better days to come. Rev. D. Carl Yoder. If we can’t trust God when things go against us. we don't trust Him at ail.—Spurgeon.
