RiDICILE. Others, drawn by excitement. on
hearing the apostles mc,kcd and accused thcm
of drunkenness tyrrsc la). They ought to have
kmown better, because it was then about
o'clock in the forenoon Verse ljD. at which i,nc
the men were not intoxicated. Who were these
people that made such a"ru.atons} rr'hdhly
they were of the church party. those who arrarcd
themselves against Jesus. who knew the apostles
to be- Ills followers. and desired TO bring them
into bad icrutc. This is Inferred from Peters
aidscss, in which he op,nly charges them with
the "ruChNion OF the Christ Ncisc 2i). Tile
hooking was that same old Missing of wicked
hearts, which m'v days b,torA had followed 'lr
innocent Lord through the streets OF the city.
In this incidcn, We have an illustration OF what
Jesus said would bcfal His dicplcs (Iait xisD.
The Holy Spirit upon believers not only quail.
ics them for service. but it brings them into
unity with their master, and subjects them TO
opposition and trial like unto His. The battle
between sin and righteousness is renewed through
all centuries.
CONCIr sion. There has been much discus.
sion to discover whether the gilt OF the spirit
was special hestowmcnt. designed only for the
apostles and others associated with them, or an
indication OF what God is willing to do for His
ministers throughout this dispcn~,tion. Those
church lives far below its privileges, and cxhorts
to prayer that similar pontccosa seasons may
hr enjoyed. They also quote Scripture (\lark
NyilD in support III the view that the Lore
does not limit His gifts. Others plead that there
was peculiar need in the first century, AMI
that il is better for the church to come under
