under abnormal, unforeseen and yet con-

become great and even embarrassing, and
ordinary business prudence should lead amer

Sunday School Notes

Ian. IL. Peter and John Heal Lame
Man. Acts 8, JIG.
Our study this week follows close to
our last lesson. It will be remembered
that last week we talked about the day
of Pentecost, and the great address
made by Peter which moved multitudes
of people to believe on Jesus Christ.
Those were stirring times, and one
is not surprised that events Of great
consequence follow fast after each
other. Although Peter and John We're
proclaiming a new gospel which in time
meant the overthrow of the old Jewish
church, yet these disciples still felt that
Jesus came firstly to the Jews, and
they could not and would not give up
veneration for, the great temple at Je-
rusalem, and were ready to take part
in the ceremonies, which customarily
took place there. This being so, we are
not surprised to learn that about the
"hotlr of prayer" Peter and John wend-
ed their way to the temple. |
1t will be no news to those informed
as to the customs of the east, that sick,
defOrmed, unfortunate people expected
to support themselves by begging. The
two disciples encountered man kho
was lame from his birth and who Was
placed daily by his friends at the door
of the temple, that he might beg of the

John We're moved with pity for this man
and they determined to cure him. Peter
spoke to the man to draw his attention,
and this he succeeded in doing, for the
man was eager for notice, as with it
usually went a gift of money. The poor
fellow was about to receive something
Of far more value to him than dollars
and cents. He was undoubtedly sur.
prised when one Of the strangers reach.
ed down and took him by the hand, rails
ing him up, and at the same time say.
ing, "Silver and gold have I none; but
what have l give thee, in the name
of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk" The
man was inspired by faith to try to
rise and to believe that his cure could
be accomplished. He was wild with joy
when his ankle bones received strength
and he was able to walk and leap. He
knew that miracle had been perform
ed upon him and praised God for whai
had been done. HI
