T.KHHON TI!XT Acts 1S:M, Ifi'lS. (lOLDCN TIJXT Cimw osrr Into Atnre. ilonlii anil help u. - Acts It. 1. Following tho commission's report nt Antloch of tho decision of tho .lorn salem church, Paul and llamnbas and others continued their evangelism In thnt city (eh. 15 35). These lenders soon telt tho need of rovlslllug tho scenes of thulr foimer lnbois (v. 30), but when It camo to tho organization of their party, Paul refused to accede to the decision of Itaruahas that John Mark should accompany them (vs. 37, 3S, seo Acts 1113). So sharp a con tention arose that two parties were or ganized That Paul later forgnvo Mark Is evidenced by his tender refer ences to him. I. A Closed Door. Ch. 10:1:8. Paul's companions for this second mission ary tour were Silas (15:40), Luke (seo use of word "wo," v. 13), and Timothy (v. 1-3). Tho latter cumo of good ancestry, had good training and wns of good report, still to avoid con tention he submitted to tho rite of circumcision. Paul's work wns to promulgate tho Jerusalem docroo, to establish or to contlrm tho churches and to add to these churches now con verts. But thnt did not entirely ful 1111 Paul's commission (!):15). Tho word "Asia" (v. C) means tho lloman province of Asia and, wlsoly oboylng the Spirit's direction, Paul vasscd on until lie enmo to tho seaport town ot Trons. At a later time Paul spoko tho "word of the Lord Jesus" In Asia with wonderful effect (ID: 1, fi, 19, 20, 27). It must liavo burned within tho bones of Paul thus to bo re strained, but It did not servo ns an ex cuse for him to take a vacation, but rather to neck now Holds wherein to preach. Thus ho camo to Troas. II. The Macedonian Call. v. 9-13. Paul had several epochmaklng vi sions; on tho Damascus road (9:3, 4 und 2G-.19); In Jerusalem (23:11); at tho time of his shipwreck (27:23), uud tho ono wo nro now considering. A vision Is a kuowlcdgo of tho need uud of tho resources at one's com mand. Grecian beauty, philosophy, nrt nnd culture needed Christ. Christ ns a resource wns adoqunto und avnllablo to supply that need. This vision Paul saw: through It God called him to Macedonia. "Wo" (tho first uso of that pronoun In tho book of Acts), 1'nul and Luko, imme diately essayed to oboy. III. The Open Door, v. 14, 15. On what Dooming trillos does history turn! An outcast wandering Jew coming to help a proud, cultured, In fluential foreign city, but ho bears the Gospol which alono can bo of help to thorn. Paul did not wait to "In vestigate tho field" nor to establish a working organization. Ho know a bettor point of contact, and that was to find thoso In that city who knew God oven though Ignorant of Christ. Ho began by preaching Josus, not cbmparatlvo religions, nor did ho seek to found "community centers" with soup kitchens and social uplift. Paul know that to olovato tho Individ ual by establishing htm In tho faith of Christ would soon result in commu nity uplift. On tho other hand, a faith which evaporates In words and doos not glvo tanglblo, concreto ovl douco in works may well bo chal lenged as t,o Its bolng gonulno. There was no supernatural direction as to what part of Macedonia Paul was to visit, and exercising his common sonso, Paul wont at onco to tho prin cipal city. Ho did not begin at onco to preach tho Gospol (v. 12 It. V.), but waited and watched for an oppor tunity, doubtless praying much for a favorablo opening (Ch, 13: 14; 17:2; 18:4). Tho "man of Macedonia" seems to have boon a woman unless wo consldor tho Phlllpplan Jailor. This open-air mooting was ono of tho most notable In hlotory. Tho Lord oponod tho heart of pious Lydla and It was tho turning point of tho evangelization of Europo nnd America and tho world. God must open tho hearts of men and women (John 0:44, 45; Eph. 1:17, 18; Luko 24:45), and this ho Ib willing and glad to do. The steps of this wonian'B conversion aro clearly marked and present a good typo. (1) Sho went out to pray (v. 13). (2) Sho heard tho word (v. 13, 14; seo also John 5:24). (3) Sho hnd her heart opened by tho Lord (v. 14). (4) Sho "gavo heed to tho things which wore Bpokon" (v. 13 and Mark 16:10). (5) Sho mado public confession of her nowly'-found faith by baptism. (C) Sho carried with her tho whole houtiohold, perhaps children, workors In her business and servants (v. 31 33; I Cor. 1:10). The uso of tho word "constrained" In verse 15 Indicates a heart hunger to bo holpful by bolng allowed to servo. Tho Phlllpplan church ofton helped Paul subsequently and doubtless Lydla was a leading spirit in such sorvlco. Tho history of tho Christian church relates many illustrations of tho lead ership and promlnenco of women o wealth and culture. Feel Comfortable After Eating Or Is There .
