Sunday School LESSON for July A.
FIRST CONVERTS I'm EUROPE.
BY j. e. GILBERT, D. d., IL D.,
Secretary of American Society of Religious Education.

CONTEXT.-Tte lesson of May 23 our
last in apostolic history, treated the con-
ference at Jerusalem. (Acts XIV, 22-29.
Shortly afterward Paul set out from An
tioch, on his second missionary journey,
accompanied by Si!as. Passing through
Syria and Cilcicia, he visited the churches
which he had founded. At Lystra, Tim
othy, young disciple, probably converted
on the former visit (Acts xiv, @, was or
dalned to the ministry Il. Tim. iv, 1D, and
added to the party. Thence travelling
northwest the missionaries directed their
steps in paths untroddcn by messengers
of Christ, into the dark depths of pagan
ism. Little is known of what transpired
on the way. The inspired writer had mis-
mind on an objective point to be reached
further on, an account of which will be
given in todGy's lesson. The entire New
Testament narrative is a recital merely
of those important events on which his
tory turned, leaving other events un-
noticed. Uchn xxi, 25.
JOURNEYING. - Our lesson opens
(verses and y with a bare mention of
the countries, all Roman provinces,
through which the missionaries journeyed.
The first, Phrygia, directly west of Ly-
Caonia, contained three important cities,
Hlerapolis Colosse and Laodcea, but
Paul deputed Epapharas (Col. iv, 12), a
Christian of Greek parcntage, to labor
there, and pushed on with Silas and Tim
othy into Galatia, a province to the
northeast. The Galatians were descend
ants of band of adventurous Gauls who,
about three centuries before the Christian
era, removed from their home in western
Europe, fought their way through many
obstacles and finally settled in Asia Minor.
Warlille and democratic, these people gov
erned themselves, and under the imperial
dominion retained their own rulers. Pauls
preaching made powerful impression on
their sensitive natures, and they cordial
ly heard him and accepted the Gospel.
(Gal. iv, lO.
RESTRAINING.-On closing the labors
In Galatia the missionaries retraced their
steps, moving westward to the boundary
of Mysia, one of the districts of the most
western province called Asia, from which
We obtain the name now applied to the
whole eastern continent Here a double
restriction was laid upon Paul. He was
first forbidden by the Holy Ghost to
preach in Asia (verse @. Inferring that
this indicated the Lords pleasure as to
the next field of labor, he was disposed
to move northward and enter Bithynia
(verse y, a province lying along the
southern shore of Pontus Eusimus. or, as
It is now termed the Black sea. But the
Spirit again interposed. This shows that
the missionaries did not act freely-they
were not moved by their own incHnations
but by a supernatural illumination and
impulse. Spirit-guided with closed lips
they passed directly across Mysia and
came to its chief city, Troas by the Sea
(verse 81. which stood near the site OF
ancient Troy, the scene Of Homer's i'm
mortal poem.
