ones power 10 perceive the open door

extent Of ones adaptability 10 enter

the equipment which the soul has OBJ

THAT Paul was enthusiastic over tn

T HAT Paul was enthusiastic over the
new and unexpected developments
~ Ephesus i evident from the adiec-
tves he uses to describe the door which
has opened to him. II was great and
effectuai. and we need but to read the
story OF Paul's closing work at Ephesus
in the nineteenth chapter of the Acts
TO realize how nightly IL stirred not
only the city but the entire province of
Asia Minor. of which Ephesus was the
commercial and political center En-
thusiasm Ten theos. God in u.s. is
condition as essential to the success full
issue in the Christian warfare as is
steam in he operation OF the big manu-
featuring plant. Perception discovers
the door. but enthusiasm measures its
dimensions. Adaptability equips for
the service. hut enthusiasm furuis hes
the power which uses every ability and
faculty in the Accomplishment OF the
work Paul was an enthusiast of the
most pronounced type. The one who
is face TO face with an open door must
needs be. If il is 10 be entered and its
possibilities adequately realized.
What was the explanation Of Pauls
enthusiasm? Surely not the adver-
saries which awaited him on the other
side Of that open door. Of which he
speaks in our text. Some vision. how
ever. came TO him through the omen
door which thrilled him and made him
realize that. thstanding the MANY
advcrsaFies ambushed along his path
way, il was a great and an effectual
work which he was 10 be permitted TO
accomplish. What was that vision? IT
was the vision of the God Whose hand
Mad swung wide the door. His glory
dreamed through and marked with
oright light the pathway which Paul's
feet we're to tread His power over
shadowed every turn in the way and
marked where he adversary lay hid
den. This was one Of the conclusive
evidences TO Paul that IL was an open
door Of opportunity before which he
stood. The fact that God stood there
with the drawn sword Of His Word
ready to strike q decisive blow against
the goddess Diana and her devotees
made Paul realize that that was the
place for him to labor rather than IN
Macedonia and Mt Corinth where he
had laid his plans to 60 ard where his
desires were leading him.
T HIS is important for the Christian
10 remember. The doors of serv-
ice which God sets are often i'm another
direction than that which plan and in
elina.jo would indicate. Paul fell led

IL The door of further and fuller serv-
ice was opened to him, and, writing 10
the Corinthiun brethren. he says:
But l will tarry at Ephesus until Pen
tecost; for "A great door and effectual
- opened unto me, and there are many
adversaries" 1t is interesting and
important To note two things at
the outset in connection with this
experience of the great apostle in
Ephesus: In the first place Paul
was not so set in his purposes and
plans and methods rs to blind him to
the unexpected opportunities opening
before him; and secondly, he was ever
ready 10 adapt himS elf to the new con
diti"ns and make the most of them.
Perception and ndaptability are quail
tiles which are iudiSpc nsable in Chris
tian service. even as they are also in
the secular affairs Of the industrial
and CONNIE rcial world. God wants men
and women whose eyes are wide open
and whose hands are kecnly alert.
Such an one was Paul. Read the life
Of Paul as God has recorded il in the
Acts and the Epistles and observe how
forcihly these two qualities are illus
trated by this great and brave and
faithful soldier Of the cross of Jesus
Christ. NJ Philippi how many mod
ern-day preachers and Christian work
ers are there who would have been
quick TO observe that down by the riv-
erside where few women were gath
cred i'm prayer was the open door 81 op-
pO,tunity. and how many would have
been willing and ready to adapt their
carefully prepared sermons and Bible
readings To the peculiar needs Of that
slim and humble audience? If ours
had been the Jail experience Of Paul
and Silas, how many do YOU suppos @
would have been wide awake and alert
enough to see with the opening doors
Of the prison the swinging of the door
