" THE SUIMiT SCHOOL Lesson II.— Fourth Quarter, For Oct 10, .1909. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. - Text of tha Lesson, Acts xxffi, 11-24. Memory Versa. 11 — Golden Text, Pa. xci, 2— Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. The two great events of this chapter are Paul testifying before the Jewish council and his being sent to Felix, the governor of Caesarea. The chief captain, having rescued him from the Jerusalem mob and bating given him permission to speak to them from the stairs before being taken KtcAIhe castle. waa greatly perplexed when, after a time of great silence and patient listening, the multitude suddenly became full of frensy because of something he said. As Paul had spoken In Hebrew the chief captain knew not what be had talked about nor what stirred them so. He was about to extort from the prisoner by scourging the reason of their outcry when Paul told him be was a Roman citizen. Paul's first utterance drew forth a rebuke from the high priest and a command to smite him on the month. ; Jeans was probably smitten thus (John xvli! 2), but he answered meekly, , Paul not so meekly at first Perceiv- 1 lug that some of those present were Pharisees and some Sadducees, Paul ■ acknowledged himself a Pharisee and ( •aid, "Of the hope and resurrection of i the dead I m called In question," for the Sadducees say that there is no < resurrection, neither angel nor spirit. ] the Pharisees confess both (verses t 6, 8). This led to a strife between the c two parties, the Pharisees taking Paul's part and crying: "We find no , evil in this man. Let nS not fighi { against God." The strife between the ^ two parties was so great that again the chief captain was compelled to t rescue Paul from them by force and j. bring him Into the castle. Can yon wonder that the cRurch as by the world today does hoi ^ draw men to God through Jesus Christ? All sorts of religion. Triui- , and Unitarian, Calrlnlst and Armenian, post-millennial and pre-mil t are in the eyes of the world

- Just so many opinions of men. one as good as another and none good for much, for where is He seen who ha all power in heaven and on earth, the Righteous One, the Prince of Peacewill such religion ever win the world to Christ? The Scriptures do not so teach us, but God has a plan which He baa revealed to us In His word, and every purpose of His shall ,be performed (Isa. xlv, 24). Verse 11 la certainly a light above the brightness of the sun ■ In the midst of the surrounding darkness, not simply the darkness of the natural night, but the spiritual dark neks of the times. "The Lord stood by him," and he never could forget it Hear him as after many years, when he felt that the time of his , departure had really come, he says "The Lsrd stood wich me and strengthened me" (II Tim. ix. 17): "Be of good cheer. Paul!" Imagine. If you . can. the events of the past day or two and put yourself In Paul's place and say what such a visit from the Lord Jesus and such words might mean to you. Was Paul beginning tc see that perhaps his coming to Jerusa lem was a mistake, to say the least, and that he bad brought all this on himself by not heeding the voice of* the Spirit and the counsel -of hlsjjreth ren. nud was he cast down and discouraged? Well here Is liis blessed . Ix>rd. who loves to the uttermost and to the end. the one who said to Simon Peter: "Verily, verily. 1 say unto yon. . the rock shall not crow till thou hast deuled me thrice. Let not your heart be troubled." Oh. He Is so full of compassion! He knows us thoroughly and loves as notwithstanding all the ' sin and weakness He sees In us What ever may have beeD your failure, dear reader. If you are truly His and do really desire to please Him. He is say ing to you. "Be of good cbeer!" Con sider the other five places where Jesus and He only, used this partiruia: word, one word In the Greek (Matt ix. 2. 22; xiv. 27: Mark v. •!!>: Jclin xvl 33). and whether you are utterly help less physically, or your life seem, surely going from you. or you rhink you will perish, ot you can't see anything. or your trials seem too great. He is saying. "Be of good cheer " The mob might bowl and the religious ones contend, but the Lord in heaven had heard Paul testify to Him If by word and deed we are testifying of Him. then it is truly the work o" the Spirit in ns (John xv. 26) Paul Is assured that he must bear witness at Rome also, as be had desired. "The Lord will fulfil! the desire of tbem that fear Him" (Ps. cxiv, 19). "De- , light thyself In the Lord, and He shall give thee the* desires of thine heart" (Pa xxxrll. 4)— this verse is lesson enough for a lifetime. But let us look further. During the night Paul received these assurances from the Lord < In the morning his sister's brings him word that more than forty men have sworn that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him. God and the devil. He that aitteth in the heavena shall laugh: the Lord shall hare them in uerlslon . I wonder how long they faated ere they discovered the vanity of their , oath and purpose. Paul did not disregard their purpose, but through the made It known to the authorities and then rested In the Lord to work cut His purpose, part of which was evidently to send him to Oaesama.
