MOKHONS FROM THK PAST
TEXT Acts 2:42. And they con
tinued steadfastly In the npostlos'
teaching r-.nd fellowship in the break
ing of bread and the prayers.
The world of tcmo. row should be
better than the world of todr.y. The
present will profit by the p:st and in
sure a brighter future. We can
study the success and failures of hu
nianity and profit by them. In this
terrible wr.r America has net made
the mistakes of her allie3 because
their experiences have proven her
gain. The church can loam mucn
from the anc.ent writings concerning
her early history and work. It is
Baid concerning & membership of
the Jerusalem church "That thoy
contlnuod stoadfantly in the apostles'
teachings and fellowship, tn the
breaking of bread and prayers."
This church did not attempt to
Judalze its membership. There was
an element after this time'that taught
obedience to the law of Moses but the
apostles strictly amphasltcd that
such was not the purpose of the Gos
pel. Judalstic tendencies In the
church today should be discouraged.
We are not under the law but under
grace says the Apostle Paul. It was
the Apostles' teaching that was em
phasized. We .have these teachings
recorded In the last will and testa
ment of Jesus Christ.
Three thoughts are emphasized in
this teaching, fellowship, breaking of
bread and prayers. Fellowship "sig
nified partnership. They were part
ners in a common cause living the
Gospel and preaching the Gospel. The
church of today needs more of this
fellowship. Their i relationship was
harmonious. They were members of
the one family of God. This fellow
ship was so simple and so humble
that not even the apostles were ad
dressed as "reverend" but only
"Peter" pnd "John." "In the break
ing of bread", they remembered the
sufferings of our Lord His Deity is

emphasized in the ordinance of the
Lord's Supper. It Is also In the or
dinance of Christian Baptism. He is
more thn Man forfour redemption is
through the shedding of his blood. In
his selection of emblems for the com
munion our Lord named those1 which
are found wherevc- civilized man ex
ists. These are the bread and the
fruit of the vine. "As oft aa ye eat
this bread and dr'nk this cup ye do
proclaim the Lord's death until he
come." I
These followers of our Lord had
the prayer habit. They knew that
prayer was a privilege and that It
was essential to growth In grace.
The marvelous growth of the early
church was due among other helps,
to prayer. Prayer is the souVs heart
felt petition to God. With all of the
trials and persecutions, th s primi
tive church needed the strength
which comes from prayer. It kept
them close to God. No one ever
backslid while upon his knees. In
all of the above, the Jerusalem
Christian continued steadfastly. How
often we give up because results do
not come Immediately. Continued
service will win the world to Christ.
In the local congregation, it is the
man or woman who continues stead
fastly that God can count on. These
are the people who go the farthest In
the service of the Lord.
May the church of today be just as
loyal tolChrisl and as energetic In his
service. Wo will If we "continue
steadfastly In the apostles' teachings
and fellowship, in tho breaking of
bread and tho prayers."
