Message of Duty.

In the Roman city Paul may have met
a native of Macedonia, possibly Luke.
the writer of the Acts, for the first per
verse. who informed the apostle of the
opportunity for work in Macedonia
which was just across the Hellenspont
In the darkness of the night came the
message of duty to the apostle in a
vision that summoned him 70 Europe.
Alone with God. praying possibly for
guidance, Paul had a vision of God call
ing him to Europe. After that expe
rIence he boldly took ship for Neapolis,
modern Kavala the seaport of Phillip,
that felt the bitterness of the Balkan
battles. and was placed again on the
map Of the world during the efforts of
the British feet at the mouth of the
Dardanellef. in the present war
His vessel. that carried civiliza ton
TO g.. Europe. was much different from
that of Great Rritain's feet or that of
Herxes, who set sail from near the
place where Paul set sail the next day
for the west in response to the call Of
God, revealed in the cry OF the Mace
DOMAIN for help. II took only two
days, with favoring south wind, for
Paul 70 go the $50 miles from the edge of
Asia to the edge Of Europe Paul did
not 60 because he was to be the nolder
of empires and the pioneer OF Christia n
civilization. He obeyed the call Of God
for service. just as every Christian
ought to respond to the call Of human
need today for help. Paul left the re-
suits with God.
The first Sabbath In the new world
Paurs party. who had walked the ten
miles from Neapolis to Phillip, Joined
the small Jewish population about the
river bank. where they had noticed a
small Enclosure that they Judged was
the place of prayer. and preached the
word unto the cody women who had
assembled for the worship Of Jehovah.
One of the number was woman of
wealth and influence in the city, who
probably had once been a slave. but
whose business as a seller of purple
had given her a home and household
which she opened to the disciples after
she had accepted their gospel and been
baptized with the members of her
household. who had received the mes
sage and with her became the nucleus
of the church of which Paul said a few
weeks later that 1t was his 10y and
crown. The heroic missionaries Of the
cross that have won the victories for
Christ and His church in many lands
have been like Paul. men of vision
who. seeing the needs of the world
have had faith in the power of the Cos
pei to save the world and have gone
forth on their mission confident of VIC
tory.
