witnessed to before Gentiles. kings
and children of Israel. Acts 1870
we have the Lord Jesus as the centre
of true preaching, and verse 81 we,
see the power of His hand. In Acts

through whom forgiveness Of sin is
preached and in whom all who be-
lieve are justified from all things. In

Deliyerer from sickness. In.Acts i 5:

III. Prayer.
The lessons Of the quarter are rich
In teaching about tnepowerl Of prayer.
In Acts 10:1-4 the prayer of Cor
nelius for light and leading is an.
swered, and in verse the prayer Of
Peter is also answered. In Acts 12:I
Ill prayer opens the doors of a Ro-
man prison, strikes the. chains from
the hands of a helpless captive and
overthrows the skilfully laid plans Of
o powerful king. In Acts 81 prayer
is seen as theproof of the geIuineness
Of Saul's conversion. In Acts 1924
prayer brings the guidance of the
Holy Spirit and preparation for mis-
sionary service.
