LESSON FOR JUNE 4.
THE CALL OF THE WE3T.
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.
