Paul stands cut as one of the most Influential characters in all history. His life and letters, which we are to study the next three months, have had a tremendous effect on the human race. Especially is this true of his position and influence in the Christian church. Under God he was the one who carried the gospel to the Gentile

missionary program of the church,

which goes on to this very day. His writings are the steady and extensive foundation of much of our Study and teaching of Christian doctrine. I. Birthplace (Acts 21:39). 1 The place of a man's birth has a definite influence on his personality and usefulness. Tarsus, where Paul was born, was one rf the most cosmopolitan cities in the world of that day. It was a Roman province, where men proudly held their citizenship in the great empire. Greek, ' the language of world culture, was spoken there. Tarsus was a great educational and university center. It was in a rich and fertile area. It was at the head of navigation on the river Cydnus and on a great Roman highway. It was the capital of the province. II. Education (Acts 22:3). After his early training in the home and under rabbis in Tarsus, he went to Jerusalem to study in what was probably the bestequipped Hebrew college of that "dcy, under one of the greatest ."teachers, Gamaliel. . ... " Somewhere in his rearing he was '.aught a trade, for every Jewish boy learned to support himself with his own hands (see Acts 13:3). , 4 i He was ins'truCCea"in'the'Word of Dod, and had a consuming zeal for rel'ious things. Until he was converted, it counted against Christianity, but afterward it became a flaming fire to spread the truth in all the world. His combined zeal and knowledge made him a man of truly broad mind and tolerant spirit (Acts 5:3539), III. Citizenship (Acts 22:27, 28). . The mighty power and prestige of Rome stood behind every Roman citizen. , Paul used his citizenship for protection. It helped him in his service, for the Lord. . Its prestige was used for God's glory. It is a good sign when a man is proud of his national background, and it spealo well for the nation to which he belongs. But Paul came (as every Christian does) to know and appreciate a higher citizenship. "IV. Religion (Acts-26:4, 5). 1 . Though a free-born Roman, citizen, Paul, was a Jew, and loyal to the religion of his people. He was a member of the fittest sect, the Pharisees, in which his family had held membership for generations., He lived consistently in the observance of the laws and customs of his religious faith, and none could point to any flaw in his doctrine or failure in his life. When he became a follower of Christ, there was no ground on which anyone could dismiss his conversion and lus witness as the outbreak of a rw viewpoint on the part of a rent ?ade Jew. It is to a m.'n's credit that he faithfully lives u4" to the beliefs of the religion he pi iftses. The result of such sincerity will be conversion, if he, like Paul, meets

Christ and honestly faces the question of loyalty to him. V. Race (Phil. 3:5. 6). .Paul counti d it to be an honor to be known as a Hebrew and gloried in the fact that he was borji, trained and lived within that racial as weil as religious circle. ; No one need ever be ashamed of his race, although he may be ashamed of things which members of his race have done. But there are even more things of which to be proud, and a man may add to the standing of his race by living his own life in cleanness of character and nobility of purpose. It is never a commendable thing to be ashamed of the race of one's fathers. We must remember, however, that all the things in which Paul gloried, he found to be but refuse when he compared them with Christ ,(ee Phil. 3:7. 8). Everything worthwhile in a man's life God can glorify and use. But pene of them, no matter how previous they may seem to be, compares with fellowship with and jerv Me for the Lord, .

There--aren't many "days" that are celebrated all over the world. And there are fewer still that are celebrated in the same way by people of many lands. But World-Wide Communion Sunday is sucK a "day." It. was established to remind Christians everywhere of the UNITY of the Faith. Denominations and doctrinal differences appear on the surface to separate people ... to divide the world into religious camps. But, in reality, they do not divide! They enable families of Christians to worship and preach the. way they prefer just as living in our own homes enables us to organize, our family life according to our own tastes. While "Christians belong to many families, yet we all belong to ONE FAMILY ... and worship ONE FATHER. A real "family reunion" once d year reminds us of our common ties. On Sunday, October 6, Christians all over the world will gather at the Table of their Lord, each to receive the Sacrament according to his own faith. Attend the Church of your choice.
