Copyright. 1903. by American Press Asoeiatiea-
The parting commission Of our Lord
was to go into all the world and give
the good news to every creature. those
thus going being assured of His pres
ence with them all the days until the
end of the age, and the special enduc
ment of the Holy Spirit was to the
end that they might be witnesses unto
Christ not only In Jerusalem and Ju-
dea and Samaria. but unto the utter
most part Of the earth (Matt. xviii.
10. %: Mark xvi. Is; Acts /. s.. Lest
the apostles might think that they
alone were the ones to do this God
seems to have overruled even such
seemingly grievous thing as the muir
muring of the Grecians to bring forth
other than the apostles and send them
forth-humble men who were willing
to serve on a committee to supervise
the distribution Of aims and yet men
full Of wisdom and faith and Of the
Holy Spirit, for we cannot truly serve
God even In, the lowliest Office except
by the Holy Spirit. In our last lesson
we saw the first Of the seven most
witness, but as a martyr. sealing his
testimony with his blood. In today's
lesson we see the second of the seven.
Philip, so preaching Christ in Sama
ria that the people with one accord
gave heed unto his message. and there
was great joy In that city oversees So.
The Lord also wrought miracles OF
healing through Philip. for the lame
and the palsied were made whole, and
demons were cast out Of those pos
sessed by them.
When we see men like stephen and
Philip thus used by the Holy Spirit
and consider that even the apostles
were accounted as unlearned and ig-
norant men and when We hear Paul
who had some learning. having been
taught by Gamaliel. renouncing all ell
ticing words of mans wisdom lest the
cross of Christ should be made OF none
effect Il Cor. /, II; ii. A., we cannot but
wonder if there Is anything of God IN
the long years Of preparation which
are thought to be necessary to at men
to be preachers or missionaries. Thcl
when we consider the discourses OF
Peter and Stephen and Paul in Acts IL
vii and xiii and see them to consis,
largely of quotations from the Scrip
lures centering upon crucified ant
risen and returning Christ we canno
but ask in all humility and sincerity
Since the Holy Spirit thus uses HI
own word to accomplish the work III
has been sent to do. is not the ont
great need more Of the word OF Co
and the one essential for minister o.
missionary to be filed with the wor'
| of God and the Spirit Of God? It Ger
| tain!y does seem SO to US.
