Golden Text.-"The angel Of Jehovah
encampeth round about them that fear
him, ana delivereth them" Ps. 34;7.
About the time that the center of
Christianity was changed from Jerusa-
lem to Antioch-about A. D. 44-Herod,
the king. began prosecuting certain of
the church. Herod was the nephew Of
that Herod who had been tetrarch dur
ing the public ministry of Jesus, and
the grandson of Herod the Great, who
slaughtered the innocentS to destroy
Him who had been born King of the
Jews. Herod had no cause for perse-
cutting the church unless II was he
feared that the preaching of the king
dom of God would interfere with his
own kingdom. 1t was certainly true
that he had no charge against Peter,
but when he saw that his action in be-
heading James pleased the people he
proceeded to imprison Peter. intending
after the Passover to deliver Peter to
the people to do with as they pleased.
The price Of popularity which Herod
paid was very dear, however. Popular
fly is always costly, for it means either
the death of the soul or the death of
self. To please the people means the
death of the soul; to please God means
the death of self. Herod paid the first
price.
PETER IN PRISON-BUT PRAYER.
Herod did not neglect any precaution
to see that his plans would be carried
out. He placed Peter in prison. There
were to be four shifts of four men each,
VINO were to be on duty for three hours
at time. Peter was handcuffed to two
men, another guarded the door of the
cell in which they were kept. Still an
other one guarded the outer door; and
then the iron gate of the prison was
locked by the ordinary keeper. This
one man was guarded by four men, two
chains and three doors.
The effect on the church was natural
ly depressing, for, while they had
grown rapidly in numbers, compared to
the others in Jerusalem they were but
few. and their influence weak compared
with those ins authority. All the power
of Rome represented by Herod was
against them. They had no recourse but
