Doctor Williamson Draws Lessons
From Felix's Refusal to Heed
PauFs Pleading.

Paul Before Felix was the subject of
the sermon preached yesterday morning at
the Third Baptist Church by the Reverend
Doctor William ]. Williamson. He took for
the text Acts xiv. %. He said, in part:
THAT was remarkable company which
assembled in Felix's judgment hail. Felix,
the favorite of the Emperor occupies the
seat of power: by his side sits Drusilla, IS
years of age. his reputed wife: before them.
with his hards chained to the hand of d
soldier, stands Paul, What a. reconstruc-
ton OF the scene takes place In heaven as
the great Judge of all estimates these char
acters.
The kingly man is Paul. because his
conscience Is free from a sense of guilt, his
life before God and men was devoid of of
Tense. In the presence of such man Fe-
liX possesses no power. for it is ever con-
science that makes towards of sinful men.
when Paul is summoned to appear be-
fore the Governor and his wife they ex-
pect 10 hear from him defense of himself
and his preaching. but God has provided an
other message for the hour. Paul has no
time to think of saving himself while two
immortal but guilty souls have asked him
to speak to them. To speak to these of
ton was a brave act. Paul knew his audi
ence. and. knowing them, did not hesitate
to tell them the whole truth Many times
in human history have such men forfeited
their lives for the utterance of their mes
sage, but every such martyrdom is a new
victory for truth
The fearless message of the great apos-
tie constitutes a crisis in the life of Felix
What tremendous results, for time and eter-
nifty. depend upon his decision! Will he re-
ceiye heavsn's message. give up his sin
ne snail experience in time the joys of for
gtveness and peace, and in eternity the
fr 7i OF Christian life; and the eter-
nal companiorship of the redeemed But he
does no. yield. Sin has him at its mercy
how OFTEN some sinner seeks to break with
the past. cut finds tia, he has gone too far.
