LESSON FOR OCTOBER 22

PROHIB
BTOtJ and mb
USES!
MURDER is being committed in prohibition Kansas with
far greater frequency than in Nebraska.
Official Prison Record:
KANSAS- Sentenced for Murder in 2 years 35
NEBRASKA-Sentenced for Murder in 2 years 29
Eighty-five Kansas murderers convicted and sentenced in
the short space of two years ending June 30, 1916, as
against twenty-nine in Nebraska in the same period!
The appalling murder record of Kansas carries a lesson of
terrible import to the citizens of Nebraska. Under prohibi
tion there has grown up in Kansas the inevitable "Alley
Joint" evil. In these "joints" liquors of the vilest sort are
dispensed to men and boys by dissolute characters, both
male and female, spreading crime and debauchery to every
part of the state.
(Excerpts from article in "The Topeka Daily State Journal"
of August 29, 1916.)
"Of the 166 criminal cases docketed for the September
term of court, 106 are for violations of the prohibitory law.
As a rule, about one-tenth of the cases brought charg
ing violations of the prohibitory law are tried. Tliey cost tlie
county about SSO each."
"One noticeable thing about the criminal docket for the
September term is that forty-six of the JOINT cases arm
. against women."
If you are opposed to the Alley Joint evil and
the increase of crime, vote No on the prohibi
tion amendment.

has hoen vehemently accused as one

ipialntcd with Jewish laws and run
loins, could not make any dellulte
cluirce against him before the Homan
court. Hence he turns him over to
A:;riVM. who '.vi 11 acquainted

I. Paul, the Precoer (v. 1-2,'t).
This w as one ol I lie greal occumoiih
in the life of this great man. 1'aul
was preaching to u king ami a woman
of great Intlucnce (a sermon which
little changed their lives evidently),
and also to the coining ages. This
king and ipiccti were wedded to their
Infamy. !od had In mind on that
day an audience in comparison with
which that which I'aul saw faded Into
ohlivlon. Notice his argument. (1)
lie begins with his own experience.
In these verses there are over forty
personal pronouns.
Men do not need so much light as
they do need heat, and i'aul was
speaking out of the hot thivbs of his
persoiiul experience. I'aul stood be
fore them a living miracle, an lncor
nate argument. We might tremble ut
the doctrine of the resurrection. He
knew it wus a marvelous thing that
Cod shoul i raise the dend, but that
change had been wrought In hllll
which was eoiiivuleut to the miracle
of raising one (mm the j;ruvc.
Paul's plea was for the Koman aft
well as the Jew. Considering his per
sounl testimony, he declares that lie
is a true Jew of the strictest sect (vv
4-8), and as such he lived in the
"hope of the promise" ns predicted by
Isaiah and Innicl. That promise has
been fulfilled in Jesus, the crucllied
who rose again from the dead, and
i'aul adds, "I have seen him. for
which hope's sake. King Agrippa.
am accused of the Jews." (ii) (vv, U
l.'i) Paul tells the audience that lie,
himself, was once a zealous perse
cutor of the Christian, more so than
those who are now persecuting him,
"being exceedingly mad against
them." He then relates his Damascus
journey and the conversation held on
the road witii the risen Lord.
The gospel I'aul preached was to
lead men into the kingdom of God
that they might receive forgiveness
of sins uud :in inheritance among
those who were titled for that inlierl
talice, who were the sanctified. For
this cause the Jews went about to kill
him.
II. Agripp.-., fie Doubter (vv. 21-32)
Five ways art- suggested as to the
reception of Paul's message. The
high priest's w: v was to hate him and
oppose. Felix's way was "go thy way
this time. When I have a more con
venient season I will rail." Festus'
way (v. 2l--'li was to charge Paul
with madness. Much learning (literal
ly, many writings) was turning him
mad, making lain a lunatic, a dreamer,
one who lived In the atmosphere of
wild Imaginings. Paul's reply was
not hursh. "Most noble Festus" (Am.
it.) "1 am not i d, but speak words of
soberness," words of eternal life and
spiritual life (f sound sense) that
were true and i ..: nest. Paul thereupon
appeals to Kit. ' Agrippa to confirm
i his statements (v. 2-ti). The crazy
man Is he who lives for this world
i rather than for eternity. The devil
has cheated many a man out of eter
nal life by tl: method which Festus
followed. He ii ii al. o cheated many
a Christian out of the larger life in
the same way. Paul's appeal to Agrip
pa (vv. 27--..') :; very suggestive.
Some p.o;!.' telleve that the con
tents of the prophecies are of no pres
ent day value, and some are trying to
break their f.. . Some declare they
cannot be tnv yet these prophecies
ure the o;u-s that declare tlu.t "Jesus
is i he Cl.ii.st, Son of t;od." The
literal translation of Agrippa's answer
is, "In a little "iou perHUudcst me to
be a . iii ii ... i. It is said that Agrip
pa said this In sarcasm, but, like many
i'. n i her attempted Jest, it revealed the
real slate of the heart.
Agrippa saw tlie cost of further con
sideration of the claims of Christ and
was unwilling to pay the price (vv.
U-.'!2). Thus Agrippa's soul wus lost,
and yet he was within one step of
eternal life. Paul with great dignity
took advantage of Agrippa's ambigu
ous expression, and said : "I would to
(J. si that whether with little or with
much, not only thou but also all that
hear me this day might become sucti
as I am except (rulsiojc his fettered
bands) these bonds." (Am. It.).
I'nul was willing and glad to suiter
hD.rthlng for the sake of .ln ClirUt,
hi. Lord (II Cor. 1210).
