* ' Lew 3D III— Fourth Quarter, For Oct 17, 1909. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. _ Text of tha Lasson, Acta xxiv, 10-27. Memory Verse*. 25, 26— Gold •« Text, Acta xxiv, 16— Commantary Pre- ^ pared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. In the close of the last chapter wa | WW how the chief captain. Claudius i Lyslas, sent Paul safely to Caesarea , With a letter to Felix, the governor. In _ | which be stated that there was nothing against the prisoner worthy of | death or of bonds, but simply some | question of Jewish law; that the Jews I would have killed him If be had not J rescued him from them; that he UDder- | stood that they were still determined I | to kill him. and, being a Roman citlI ten, be bad sent him to Caesarea, commanding bis accuser* to appear against him there. After fire days the high priest and the elder*, with a certain •rator to speak for them, appeared before Felix, and Paul was brought forth to meet them. With some flattery, j which evidently wearied Felix, and therefore the orator cut It abort be • told a number or Uee about Paul, which the high priest and the elders Indorsed. Flattery and lying are still the order of the day among pome religious bodies. But God Is a God of truth, and In due time truth will prevail. Being permitted to speak for himself. Panl denied all their accusations and briefly stated the whole truth of the matter, showing that It was wholly a matter of doctrine and of opinion as to what tha Scriptures really taught; - that he believed all that was written In the law and in the prophets and looked for a resurrection of the dead, both of the Just and the unjust. This meant Jesus risen from the dead as Israel's promised Messiah, the Son of David, to sit on David's throne;, also a i fulfillment of Bsek. xxxvil, Jer. xxlll. j Iaa. lx, Dan. vll and ad the prophets J concerning the future of the nation and the king who shall reign in righteousness. It meant the resurrection of I His body, the church. at His coming to j the air for His saints (I Thess. Iv, 1618; I Cor. xv. 61-54), though that would not be specially In his mind, as he ! thought of Israel. It meant the resur- j rectlon of the unjust and the great white throne Judgment at the end of | the millennial reign of Christ It meant I that God will Judge the world In. right- I eousness by that man whom He hath I - ordained, whereof he hath given as- I snrance unto all men In that He hath ; raised Him from the dead (rvll, 31). This, with Justification by faith 1 through the finished work of Christ ' apart from any works of the law, was counted heresy by these sealous Jews. ' Jesus Himself taught this kind of when He said, "O fools and i slow of heart to believe all that the I prophets have spokes" (Luke xxiv, 25). Today there are with many no re- 1 liable writings of Moses, no prediction whate- er. no future for Israel, l nothing supernatural, no coming again ; of Christ, no wrath of God. but all such are simply unbelievers and ( stand against Christ for He testified 1 that all things written In the law of Moses and in the prophets and In ihe | concerning Him must he ful- 1 (Luke xxiv. -Hi. Felix Is said to have had more perfect knowledge of 1 "the way" (verse 221 perhaps because 1 hla wife. Drusllla. was a Jewess, so he postponed the case until Lyslas. the i chief captain, should come and tell g what he kuew. Meantime he gave l Paul Into the keeping of a centurion, with orders to let him have liberty I and to allow all his friends to come to j see him and to minister to him This made it comparatively easy for Paul and would give him opportunity to strengthen the faith of the brethren at Caesarea. and be would certainly have much to tell of thg Lord's doings since . He met him on the way to Da- 1 mascus, and tbe.v would not he apt to weary of bearing of His wondrous works. From time to time Felix sent for him and beard him concerning the faith In Christ, and on one occasion as he and his wife. Drusllla listened to reasoning of righteousness, temperance and' judgment to come Felix , actually rfembled. but. put bis convlctiohs from him. saying: "Go thy way Q for this time When 1 have a convenldht season I will call for three " For two years this continued. Felix always C hoping that Paul would offer him mon- A ey to release him. and with that hope S he sent .for him thp oftener But Paul, having no though/ of any release but a R righteous one. never offered him a j. bribe, and so the successor of Felix R came Into office and found Paul still a prisoner.
