!■- JI Iniemabcoal Vntlon* BaekfrcaM ■«rlptar»t Acte S?-M. D • K»«U ( t Psalm «. Widening Circles Leseoa far Jjm 24, ISSS THE doctor who wrota what we call the book of Acts must have known that his story was not the whole story. He throws his spotlight first on one leader, then on another; occasionally on a whole church. During more than half his book he follows one man, PauL
Luke could not have supposedtor his friend Paul would not have let him make such a mistake — that the story of Paul was the whole story of the ehurch. But he knew that it is
men who make Dr. Foreman history. Paul was both outstanding, and typical. He was outstanding in that there is no record in the New Testament of any leader as great as he. He was typical in that for him as for others, Christianity is not a quiet stand still religion; it must move. PleiiHn In the book of Acts the reader I sees Christianity moving always in | one direction: west. It has been going west ever since. But there • were already pioneers in other directions. To the north went missionaries into the countries now ■ known as France, Holland, Scan- , dinavia, Great Britain. To the south went the pioneer Christians who founded the churches along the southern side of the Mediterranean end even penetrated up the Nile. To the east went pioneers who brought the Gospel to what is now Iraq. It was not long before.
there were Christians as far away as India. The Book of Acts closes with Paul in the world-capital of Romo. But the story ot the Acte of the Holy Spirit through the Christian church is still being told; It is an unfinished story. It will always be an -unfinished story so long as there are persons yet to be won. Life Magazine Carried a story about the martyrdom of some young missionaries to the Aucas, a tribe of Indians in darkest Eeuador. It is safe to say that ( most ot the readers of Life had . not heard bf the Aucas before. Indeed most American ehurch members had never heard of them. But the point is, some Christians had, and to hear was to want to go and tell them the story of Jesus. Now there are five dead missionaries, and five widows . . . but it is safe to predict that some ot these will go back, and others will follow, and one day it will be as safe to : live among the Aucas as it is on your own street You cannot stop i the pioneers. A world raligioß Why has the Bible been translated into so many hundreds of i languages? Not for fun. They don’t I first translate the Bible into (say) Mayan, and then start looking for some Mayans to try it on. It is the other way around. First some mis- { sionaries go to the Mayans, and they win some to Christ. And then both the missionaries and the new Christians want a Bible in the language of the land, so some one starts to translate it into Mayan, and after some years of hard work there appears a Mayan New Testament Some day the Old will appear too. Every translation of the Bible Is evidence that missionaries have been at work. If the Christian religion had stayed where it started (It would have died, but let’s suppose it lived) there would be no English Bibles, no Latin, no French, only some obscure dialect of Hebrew. The existence ot Bibles in English points to the work of missionaries centuries ago who brought not only culture but religion to our wild ancestors. Miles art Rude of yards We talk about the spread oi Christianity, and indeed it has spread around the world. But it never spreads sny farther at one time than from one person to one person. Drop a stone into a pond and presently the ripples reach every shore. But the first ripple is hardly bigger than the stone. Every road, no matter how long, is made ap of very short stretches. Every mile is made of yards, yards are made of inches. You ean’t eover ten thousand miles without covering every inch of all that distance. A plain church member calling on a neighbor and saying a good word for Jesus Christ may not feel like a “world Christian’*; but that is what he is. If the world is ever won for Christ tt must be man by man. No less a person than Billy Graham has said that the most effective kind of evangelism in the world is visitation evangelism: one plus one plus 10:30 Morning worship and communion service. 2:30 Young Peoples rally at the Bluffton church.

Say "Yes" To Christ Rev. J. R. Meadows To say “Yea" to Christ is to make life’s Supreme decision —to realise peace, purpose, and power for dally living. Peace—-because of inner harmony. In place of conflict and division we .find unity. In place of fear, assurance.' In place of despair. hope. Personality dedicated tb Christ becomes integrated, poised, vibrant, through the "transforming friendship" of the Master Himself. Purpose—because life takes on new meaning, discovers new directions, seesk new interests. No longer self-centered, but Christcentered, our nature becomes outraching. out going and out-giving, finding its highest expression in
