His clothes may be splashed
And his face smeared with oil
His coat may me slashed
And his hands rough from toll.
He may wear bum hat and his
purse may be flat
But, as Bobby Burns says. hes a
man for a that"
HI stalk may seem rough
And a bit too profane.
His ways may be gruff
And his manners quite plain:
But he doesn't pretend whom he says
he's your friend

STORY OF THE WORLDS
GREA TEST REVIVAL
(CraytOn s. BroOks)

NSidy DtOVhsI
The church began in revival That
revival remains the greatest Of all
history. Three thousand were con-
verted and baptized into Christ the
first day. In comparatively short
time the number Of the men came to
be about five thousand. How many
women and young girls were mem
bers We do not know.
What factors made such a wonder
ful church possible? What circum-
stances, personalities or agencies con-
tributed?
Preparation
Col had carefully and patiently
planned and waited. Unconsciously
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and a host Of
prophets and leaders had paved the
way. Jesus had been teaching the
twelve and the public. This Day Of
Pentecost is the day for which all
other days had been made. We can
not now have revival without prep
aration any more than we can go Out
into the field in September and pick
cotton without plowing, planting and
cultivating.
The Occasion
1t Is q great feast Of the Jews.
They have gathered from every land
The facts of the crucifixion and resur-
rection are fresh in every mind. The
multitude remembers the miraculous
manifestations at the time Of the
cross On this day these Gallileans
are speaking in tongues they have not
learned. C1oven tongues as Of fire
are upon their heads. The whole
a mighty rushing wind. God is pour
ing out His spirit on all flesh accord
ing to prophecy.
The Preacher
Measured by the best standards
Simon Peter was easily one of the
worlds might!est preachers. In logic,
apt quotation of scripture and cour-
age he is surpassed by few. He
rises to this great occasion and con-
tines to testify with irresistible power,
The Audience
The cream of Judaism is here from
the four corners Of the earth. They
are reverent. intelligent and tremen-
dously interested. The newborn
church was intensely evangelistic.
Read the story Of the activities of
Phillip. a deacon Of the model church.
A few years later when they were
forced to flee, leaving Jerusalem for
their lives, they went everywhere,
preaching the word. No church can
have q revival If the evangelistic fire
burns only in the heart Of the preach.
er.
Their Lives
They continued steadfastly in the
apostles teaching and fellowship and
in the observation Of the Lords sup
per and in prayer They remembered
the doctrine taught by their inspired
leaders. They had all things in com
mon. A beautiful partnership is
here. They remembered the Lords
death in the beautiful supper, observ-
ing II at first every day but later
observing II every first day Of the
week or every Sunday. II was a
praying church.
Organization
Their organization was simple. There
were the twelve inspired apostles who
were all teachers and preachers They
were the spiritual leaders. They later
appointed seven deacons TO distribute
the loving benevolence Of the church,
They did not assess the members or
collect money. Their function fas
to wisely spend money. They care
fully looked after their widows and
orphans and needy. Therefore the
church lived in the constant amos
phere of a revival and grew to astor-
ishlng proportions.
