The church In Corinth mih very young, not seven years old, Irom the llrst coining of Paul, who remained with them only a year and a half. Klnci- that time they had grown In numbers with but little outside help ftom Paul and those who represented him. 2. The young church was surround cd by intense worldlinesH, mid heathen immoralities and principles, which were like an Intense moral mnlnrin an unhealthy atmospheie. '.', Thete wan In the city a consider able colony of Jews who were opposed to the whole Christian movement. t An anti-Paulino mission of C'luls thin .lews from Palestine came to Corinth with views opposed to Paul's teachings concerning the Gentiles, and Insisted that all Gentile Chris Huns should conform to the Jewish tltiinl. 5. Cases of Immorality had arisen in the church for which Paul hnd been compelled to reprove them. I!. Thero were divisions among them, one being for Peter, another for Paul, and nnother for Christ, as If all were not for Christ. 7. There were attacks upon Paul's character and authority. Speaking of those who claimed lo be the real leaders and apostles, and who condemned him, Paul Bays: 22. "Are they Hebrews," of purest blood, one of tho nation and lan guage? "So am I." 'Ate they Israelites," of the true re llglou, worshiping the one God? "So am I." "Aie they the seed of Abraham," in heritors of the promises, of the Mes slnnlc hopes, and the kingdom of God? "So am I." 24. "Flvo times received I forty stripes save one" from the Jews. None are mentioned In tho Acts. The Jews were forbidden to Indict more than forty stripes (Dent. 25:3), and lest they should break the law by n mis take In counting they Inflicted only thirty-nine. 25. "Thrice was I beaten with mils." Once mentioned In Acts 1C:22. A sim ilar instance Is given by Cicero against Vcrrcs, V. C2. "Once wns I stoned." At Lystra (Acts 14:10). Stoning was planned once before nt Iconium, but the plan was not carried out (Acts H:fi). Two. Tho second test of apostle ship 12:1-0. Vision. Insight. Com munion with God. Realization of the spiritual. Paul'B second answer to ob jectors Is thnt he has a right to speak in the name of God; for though he had not seen Jesus In the flesh, he had seen eternal things, lie hnd re eel veil revelations from God. 2. "1 know" (better "I know") "a nan In Christ." That he is referring to himself Is proved hy v. 7; and the whole argument implies It. I low It came, he could not tell, hut he knew the fact. 'Caught up to the third heaven," beyond the visible heaven, "to the highest heaven where the throne of God Is," to Paradise tho abode of the Just, and of the angels. Whatever place It may have been. It was Into the inmost spiritual realities. Note the several islons which are recoided In the Acts from this vision of Jesus at his conversion, to his lslon In the storm on the way to Homo. In his letter to the Galatlans (1:11. 12) Paul declares: "1 certify you, brethren, that the Gospel which was preached of me Is not after man. "For I neither received It of man, neither was I taught It, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ." Something of this vision, of this communion of God with our spirits, of tills realization of heaven and its life, of this Insight Into spiritual truths, Is necessary to our beat useful ness and our highest life. Three Tho third test of Paul's Apontleshlp wub his saintly life. 12:7-10. Paul shows that the Mgns of an apostle wcie wrought among the Cornlthlims "In signs and wonders and mighty deeds," every one of them for the good of the people and the glory of God. "1 seek not yours but you," "I will very gladly spend nnd ho spent for you, though the more abundantly I love you, tho less I be loved " The Thorn In tho Flesh. One special form In which his snlntllncsu was cul tivated and manifested Is described in I vs 7-iu. What Paul's (v. 7) "thorn In tho llesli" ,as we cannot toll. Hut It ap pears to have been something which he feared would lessen his power among them nnd hinder his work. If a person benrlng a burden that Is too great for his strength, prays for relief, there aro two ways of an swering his prnyer. (1) Tho burden may bo lessened to his strength, or be taken away. In this cabo ho is re lieved of his burden, but Is no better able to bear other burdens. Or (2) his stieugtli may ho so Increased that what before was a burden becomes a uiero joy of aetivo life.
