TEACHING POINTS.

INTRODUCTION When the Pentecostal
outpouring was at its height, when the
many were awed while some Knocked, Pet
er became ''the mouth of all the apostles. -
From some central position he addressed
the multitude. He spoke with courage
and freedom in striking contrast with him
self at the time of his cowardly denial. "
He began his sermon, the first apostolic
sermon, by showing the absurdity of the
charge that the Christians were under the
influence of new wine; or of wine at all,
since the hour eight to nine O'Clock in the
morning) was earlier than that at which
any Jew was allowed to eat or drink on
the feast-day. He proceeds by declaring
that the outpouring of the Spirit is full
flment of prophecy made by Joel, He
quotes from the Psalms in support of the
doctrine that the Messiah is to be an I'm
mortal Leader; and declares that Jesus is
the Messiah, the proof being his resurrec-
ton, of which all the apostles present are
witnesses.
a. V. 32-40 EAGER INQUIRERs. The
fact of the resurrection and temperance
of Jesus being proved, Peter applies to
him another saying of the Psalmist, to the
effect that Jesus is to be complete Con-
queror. Peter charges on all the house
of Israel. on Israel as "a whole, that it has
crucified the Lord Christ.--The charge
awakens both conviction and consterna-
ton. The question, WHAT SHALL WE DO?
is the expression of ardent desire to be
delivered from acknowledged sim -
tTurn, - be baptized in the name of Jesus
Christ so find remission or cessation of
your sins; these are the conditions of you
who have crucifed Jesus becoming recip-
tents of the Holy Spirit.
e. V. 41-43. GLAD BELIEVERS. We
have but summary of Peters sermon; he
needed to speak many other words, - ex-
horting his hearers to separate themselves
from the perverse Israel which would still
remain guilty of crucifying Jesus. Bap-
tisms soon began-three thousand baptisms
were that day administered. Probably
not by immersion. Those baptized believ-
ers remained steadfast. Not comets, but
stars.
80 V. 44-47. UNITED BRETHREN. En-
tire Jerusalem was impressed by the Pen
tecostal testimony. The Christian believ-
ers had such fervor of unity as burned
away their selfishness. They shared their
goods in common. They had within them
new light of joy. The church grew daily
by the addition of such as were BEING
SAVED, mark the phrasing.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1897-01-09

These converts, let it be noted, sepa-
rated themselves from their people; in
many cases from their own families.
They gave themselves fully to the new
life on which they mad entered. They
continued steddfastly IN the apostles
teaching and fellowship, an the break
ing of bread and the prayers
The record implies that the whole
company, in different groups. usually
ate together; following the customary
meal with the Supper of Remembrance,
and keeping alive the fame of devotion
by some prescribed formula of prayer.
3. United Brethren,-vs. A Al.
So the Christian church began. 1t
was born in a day. By an irresistible
impulse of the Spirit it instantly full
filled the ideal of fraternity. The
church was then literally one family.
The Individual life was then forgotten;
the common life was all. The noun.
tains were brought low, the valleys were
filed up; those who had property sold
their possessions and goods. and parted
them to all, as dey man had need.
1t was such exaltation of fraternity,
such an abnegation of the individual, as
can be known in the earth only where
the Spirit of Christ is regnant. This
spontaneous communism, this free cast
ing of private property into the COM
mon treasury, let US observe, bears no
more resemblance to what has been in
late ages called Communism. violent,
red handed grasping of individual prop
erty by the spirit of covetousness.-tha
gold resembles pinchbeck.
The rapturous state of the church in
it's newborn life is a witness of how
much of heaven may be known in the
earth. Tho joy which possessed them !;
the power of the Spirit which was con.
stantly making new conquests of un-
belief; the new meaning they saw in the
old temple service; the magnetism of
the Spirit in them, drawing the whole
community to them, these are traits of
the Christians of the First Christian
Church.
There was daily accession to the
church of such as were being saved, by
birth and growth of the spiritual life.
The Eden allegory is picture of
the world in it's primal innocence; it is a
prophecy of what it will be in the con-
summation of the ages. The First
G tristan Church is the picture of the
ideal Society of Jesus; it is prophecy
of what will be, when Christ has fully
entered into his Inheritance.

LESSON STORY.

While the Pentecostal outpouring OF
the Spirit was in progress, Peter secured
some central position from which he
could, as the spokesman of the apostles,
speak to the whole multitude.
We are not told that Peter was
among those who were moved by the
Holy Spirit to speak in an unfamiliar
language But the greater gift of speak
ing his own language with effectiveness
was, by the Holy Spirit, bestowed upon
him.
Peters natural faculties were en-
livened; his memory was vivified; his
inner life was Illuminated.
He quoted in great freedom from
prophets and psalms.
The better past of Israel spoke through
him, while he gave the Christian inter-
probation of the scene then before the
eyes of his hearers.
He had but recently been himself I'M
der the power of sin; the Holy Spirit had
lifted him into spiritual liberty. His
sermon was his personal and the apostle
lie testimony to the saving power of
Christ.
He declared the resurrection of Christ
to be the central fact of the Gospel
Peters sermon is summed into his ap-
plication: Let all the house of Israel
therefore k1oac assuredly. that God hath
made him both Lord and Christ. this
Jesus a0honl ye crucifed.
/. Earnest Inquirers, 32-40.
When the age-struck assembly heard
this, every one felt the sharp pain of an
accusing conscience. 1t was then
flashed upon them that they had cruel
fed the One who had been sent to save
them. In their CONSERVATION they asked,
Brethren, loIat shall a0e do?
To these inquirers Peter replied, Re
pent ne. and be baptized eUerg one of
gou in the name of Jesus Christ unto
the remission of your sins; and ye shall
receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. That
is Turn from your sinful ways; confess
yourselves believers in the name of Jesus
as the Christ. This will be the remis
sion, the cessation, of your sins. Doing
this, you too will have the Holy Spirit.
Truly the act OF confessing faith in
the Crucified One.-separating the con-
lessor as it did from the fellowship of
his people,-could be done only in a
noble spirit of heroism.
Peter. in more hopeful strain. contin-
usd For to you is the promise, and to
your children and to all that are afar
of, euen as many as the Lord our God
shall call unto HIM. Such Divine grace
to sinners as he had himself expert
enced, was promised to his people; to
the coming generations. to the whole
world.
z. Glad Believers,-vs 41-43.
We have in the record only the con-
centrated thought of Peters sermon.
The seeking ones had perplexities to be
cleared away. The truth they heard
needed application and restatement,
that it might be realized. With mdny
other words he testified and eehorted
them saying, SAGE yourself from this
crooked generation.
He would have them by their own
wills, DELIVER THEMSELVES from the
popular wickedness; even while he told
them that it was the name of Christ, or
the Holy Spirit, that would deliver them.
A combination of human and divine en-
ergy was needed.
The immediate effect of the first
preaching of the cruciied. risen Christ
is one of the marvels of church history
