' Memory Vorooa, Z7-29— Goldmn Text, j ' II Tim. i, 12 — Commentary Prepared I . I by Rov. D. M. Stearns. ' After being two years or more a 1 I prisoner at Caesarea, Festus being gov- I i ernor Instead of Felix and having gone 1 1 up to Jerusalem, the high priest ' * j chief of the Jews inform him against i ; Pan) and desire him to bring Paul to '' Jerusalem, intending.

to lay Id wait for him and kill him Festus replied that they must come to u j Caesarea and there appear against him. I This they did; but. as before, it was j simply a case of complaints which ! wy j they could not prove. In reply to Fes- ! — i tus' question. "Wilt thou go up to Jeru- ! j salem and there be Judged?" he apl pealed to Oesar. King Agrippa havj Ing come to visit Festus. the case is j brought to his attention as one of Jew li lah superstition -concerning one Jesus who was dead, but whom Paul affirm- ! ad- to be alive (xxv, 19). The world j cares Just about as much today about ). Him of whom they apake as "one Je- _ ! sua," and the church does not com- ] mend Him to the world much more. I If any. than the Jews did tbelr God. I I of whom they cried .s^'Hear, O Israel. | the Lord our God Is one Lord" (Deut ( «■«-. ' Agrippa and Bernlce having entered ! the place of hearing with great pomp, ] accompanied by the chief captains and j principal men . of the city, Paul Is j brought before them, and, after a brief | statement by Festus, Paul is permit- _ j ted to speak for himself. He told of • i his early life as a Pharisee and his seal against the followers of Jesus antll the risen and ascended Christ met him on the way to Damascus, saved him : and made him His messenger to the gentiles to turn them from darkness ' to light and from the power of Satan I unto God, that they might receive for- 1 glveness of sins and Inheritance among i them are sanctified by faith In Christ ( He told how In obedience to the vision I from heaven, he had at Damascus, i- Jerusalem, throughout Judea and to i the gentiles preached that they should I

repent and turn to God and prove the reality of It in their lives; that all their prophets bad testified that the Mes- , slab of Israel should suffer and die and rise from the dead and that He should through Israel, the twelve tribes, give light to the gentiles after the resurrection at the second coming '• of Christ Along this line of truth as;| to the teaching ot the prophets and the fulfillment ■ t their predictions both Peter and Stephen and our Lord Him- . self, In Luke xxlv. all taught It is the one story which the 8criptures tell and authorize us to tell, that Israel's I Messiah shall bless the world through • Israel. Od the way to Damascus Jesus had | revealed Hluiself to Saul as truly the j Messiah, bu. bad also at some time taught him a mystery not revealed in the prophets— that during Israel's re Jectlon Because of tbelr rejection of their Messiah He would gather from • all nations a people called the church. His body, who should by discipline here be fitted to come with Christ In His glory and reign with Him in His kingdom, when Jerusalem shall be the throne of the Lord and Israel a righteous nation It is our privilege, as It was Paul's, to go Into all the world with the glad tidings of forgiveuess of ains for all who will receive the Lord Jesus because of His suffering for sins, the Just for the unjust that He • might bring us to God. And all who In this age truly receive Him shall be , manifested with Him when Israel shall see Him coming in the- clonus , with power and glory aud shall say , "This Is onr God; we have waited for Him. and He will save us" tlsa. xxv. 9). As to the mystery of this age specially revealed to Paul, see Horn ' xi On.'>7- r,-l •>* •«*.. L-«h ... , Epb ill el.

We may be quite sure thaf thai company of ea nh's great ones never heard a story like this before, and we do not wonder that Festus said wl:tl a haul voice, "Paul, thou art beside thyself much learning dotb make thee mad' (24). There are very few couqianie; of the Lord's people <so railed ■ who to day know ibe story as_ Paul set It forth that day. and wbrfe there Is a i preacher who thus beliovSt and teaches ! he Is not apt to be counted a man o! 1 much learning, but. rather, an unlearn j eu man. weatmirided. mentally unbal j an< e<l We can reply, as Paul did. ; "We are not mad. but speak forth the I words of truth and soberness" (25 1 The test question is that which Paul ; addressed to Agrippa. "Bellevest thou the prophets T' for "surely the Lord God will do nothing, but He revealeth His secret unto His servants the prophets" (Amos 111, 7). In Agrippa's reply there are three ; words which are specially full of significance. "almost a Christian." We j think of another, "not far from the of God." but we remember that all who were not actually In the ark with Noah perished, and then startling words. "He that hath not the Son of God hath not life:" that belleveth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abldetb on him" (I John v. 12: John 88). So that "almost a Christian" ■Imply means "lost" but who can tell meaning of that word? May none who read ever know the doom of the loat WttL ® burning heart and with burning words Paul declared bis long that not only Agrippa. but all who heard him that day. might stand in
