MEMORY VERSE Wo lovo becauso h

I. How Lydla Began the Christian
Life (vv. i:M5).
Lydla was the llrst convert to
Christ In Europe. Hers wns a typical
conversion. Note the steps therein:
1. Attendauce at the place of pray
er (v. 13).
Tho accustomed place here wns at
the river side. The accustomed placo
todny is in church. God cnn,nnd docs
savo men -and women , without any
seeming connection with places of es
tablished worship, but ho appears to
most people at such places. The very
fact that ho lias established and eus-
tnlns churches here and thcro Is an
urgent call to all men nnd women to
plnce themselves in thowny of salva
tion. While no one can save himself,
yet all can put themselves In the way
of salvation by ntteudlng church, rend
ing the Bible, etc.
2. Listening to the preaching of the
Word of God (vv. 13, 14).
Pnul took advantage of tho oppor
tunity which wns given him by the
assemblage of this group of devoted
women to preach Christ to them, lie
was alert for nnd prized highly the op
portunity to tell the people about
Christ. Ho knew nlso how perilous
It wns to neglect to witness for Chris!
it a tlmo when unsnved people arc
together. Tho opportunity Is God'i
call to preach Christ.
3. Her heart was opened by the
Lord (v. 14).
Tho Individual mny plncc himself
In tho wny of salvation by coming
near to the means of grace, and the
'preacher may preach the Word of God,
but there Is no hope of salvation until
the heart is opened by the Lord (John
8:44, 45). While the salvation of
every ono is dependent upon this sov
ereign act of the Lord, yet wo can bo
euro that he Is willing at all times to
do this for those who, like Lydla,
place themselves In tho way of his
saving grace. ""
4. She was baptized, (v. 15).
This ordinance follows belief In
Chlrst. Tho invariable rulo In tho
early church was for believers to bo
baptized. Whllo there Is no salvation
In tho wnter of baptism, yet hearty
obedience should be rendered in this
respect (Acts 2:38-41; 8:12; Mark 10:
16). Lydla brought-her household to
Christ. This Is as It should be. Sho
Bhowed signs of tho new life, In that
she expressed gratltudo toward thoso
who hnd been instrumental In her con
version (v. 15) by constraining them
to shnro the hospitality of her home.
II. How the Phlllpplan Jailer Be
gan the Christian Life (vv. 25-34).
1. The occnslon (vv. 25, 20).
The cnstlng out of tho spirit of di
vination from the damsel landed Paul
and Silas In prison. The pnin of bleed
ing backs, and of feet In stocks, kept
them from sleeping; but not "from
praying and singing. Tho Lord heard
their prayers and sent an' earthquako
w"hlch shook the Jail, opened tho doors
of the prison, nnd loosed tho bonds
from tho prisoners' hands.
2. The method (w. 27-34).
(1) Visitation of tho supernatural
(vv. 27-29). The Jailer was awakened
from his sleep by tho earthquake. This
enrthquako was unusual In that It
loosed the bonds from the prisoners'
hands. In his desperation the jailer
was about to commit suicide. This
waB averted by Paul's nssurnnce that
all were safe. Tho fact that tho doors
wero opened- and the prisoners free
and yet no ono escaped, showed him
thnt something unusual had occurred.
Therefore, ho camo trembling nnd
prostrated himself before Pnul nud
Silas.
(2) Tho grent question (. 80). In
the presence of the supernatural ho
cried out, "What must 1 do to bo sav
ed?" One's snlvntlon Is not far oft
when he utters this cry with sincerity.
- (3) Tho vital answer (vv. 81, 32).
"Believe on tho Lord Jesus Christ,"
is tho only wny to bo saved.
(Acts 4:12). Though tho wny
of salvation Is restricted, it Is simple
and easy. No ono who has believed
on Christ has failed to receive It. Tho
Jailer's faith was not blind faith, foe
they spaker unto him tho word of tho
Lord, nnd to all thnt were In his house.
They wcro taught tho mennlng of, be
lief In Christ.
(4) Tho evidence of a transformed
llfo (vv. 83, 84).
(a) Ho waB baptized (v. 83). As
Boon as ono believes on Christ ho
wants to bo baptized.
(b) Ho tenderly 'washed Ihe stripes
of Paul and Silas, showing that ho
was no longer tho brutal Jailer (v. 84),
(c) He rejoiced (v. 84). Tlio one
who really accepts Christ Is filled with
Joy.
(d) A transformed homo (v. 84),
Ho believed on Christ and was bap
tized, and his household.
