1T Is easy to understand what this

Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God,

Matt. 4:10.
NEW ADVENTURING.
What is the reward of work well
done? Invariably it is more work.
Paul is but one example of the rule
of life. He had carried aims to Jeru-
salem and had hurried back to the
mothering church at Antioch. Here
reports reached him of conditions in
GaIatia where Judaizers had been dis
crediting his apostleship and his mes
sage to the great confusion of the con-
gregations he had established there.
From Antioch he wrote his Galatian
letter and it may have been Silas who
took it into the field while he remained
to close up the affairs that had been a
part of his second missionary jour
ney. But the call of the world was
too insistent to go UNDECIDED, and in
the early summer of SO he Jared forth
to see the results of his letter to his
churches. Walking under the swelter-
ing sun he would reach Derbe and be
welcomed by the Christian converts of
the other days who had been restored
to their stringless relationship to their
Lord preached by Paul. Again he
would come to Lystra with its memory
of stones, Iconium with it's threats,
Antioch with its mob. But PauPs
heart was singing over the comrade-
ships formed among them that had al
ready sent upon the road Timothy and
Titus and possibly DR.. Luke, and held
many others who were dear through
And besides these, faithful ones who
had never wavered in their devotion
crowded about him at every turn so
that it was triumphal procession for
the Ambassador of the Cross. AS au-
tumn began to chill the air he had
completed the work he had determined
to do in Galatia and the low plain no
, longer threatened sickness, so he
pressed down into Ephesus as he had
promised to do. This was the capital
of the province of Asia and to capture
it meant the evangelization of the en-
tire section. It's great temple to Di-
ana was one of the wonders of the
world. Its 1877 pillars, 60 feet high,
formed the peristyle of building 425
by 220 feet, whose interior was a
dream of beauty. Uncounted treasures
were stored there and at the end was
the great altar behind which hung
the vast folds of purple curtain COW
ering the huge image of Diana from
the careless gaze. The worship was
inexpressibly sensuous and the right
of sanctuary made it the greatest
criminal college in the world. If this
was the pride of the city's heart, one
can imagine the moral squalor into
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1921-10-06

which Paul was coming to spend two
years and three months of successful
ministry, to write two letters to the
Corinthians during his stay and to
later send to these converts the let
tiers to Ephesus and Collosse.
THE PREPARATION.
Our old friends, Aquila and Priscil-
la, from Rome and from Corinth, had
been busy in Ephesus during these
summer months. He was originally
from near the Black Sea and had gone
to Rome possibly in quest of business.
Hi wife bears an aristocratic name
common enough among the patricians
of the City of Seven Hills but I'M
known elsewhere, so that she probably
fell in love with the Jewish artizan
and from henceforth shared his for
tune or lack of it. Love is the great
leveler. Wherever they went they OPP
ened the door for Christians and had
church Sin their house" and some
where, perhaps in Ephesus, they "laid
down their own necks" for Paul so
that they kept their courage and 10y
atty under all circumstances. During
the summer a distinguished visitor APP
peared in the synagogue. 1t was
Apollos, a graduate of the Alexand-
rian University, and a master of the
old Hebrew Scriptures. He was fol-
lower of John who preached repent
ance and looked for the coming of
the Christ. Yet the scholar was will
ing to be taught by the tent-maker
and in that humble home he learned
that the Christ he proclaimed as soon
to come was the Jesus who was al
ready history. Accepting the fuller
truth he Jared forth upon a great ev-
angelistic career, the earliest place of
preaching being Corinth. There were
other adherents of the Baptist in town
who differed from Apollos in being
"Disciples" who had left Jerusalem or
Palestine before Pentecost and were
unacquainted with the life of the
Church born that day. 1t was a bit of
backwater left by the food-perfectly
good water, but not flowing with the
stream. Paul at his coming turned
them into the full current, greatly to
their advantage. Such were some of
the grey CLEANS of light that heralded
the coming of Paul to the Ephesian
field.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1921-10-06
THE IMPACT.

Three months preaching in the syn
agogue proclaims either more open
minded members or the more careful
presentation. Paul never gave up his
hope of saving Israel, and at each new
city turned to them with all the old
eagerness in spite of the uniform
mobbing which resulted. The trouble
must be with his methods-they must
believe the message if he could but
get it though properly-so he per-
sisted in thinking the best things of
them in spite of failure. But he was
turned out again and took to public
hall on part time with a doctor. The
effect was far-reaching enough to
touch the superstition of the people
in amulets and charms. Did you ever
carry a "lucky penny" or stick up a
horseshoe? Go back nineteen centur-
les and Judge the hold such things had
if you would correctly measure the
meaning of the pile of dream books,
astrologies and kindred themes that
blazed in the public square. Christi
anity has ever met superstition in
open fight and has been found its mas
ter on many field. Light will con-
quer darkness and knowledge ignor-
ance wherever they meet.
THE REACTION.
Pauls exit was accompanied by the
usual spectacular surroundings that
had been exhibited in other cities.
Reason must reckon with passion.
Stage-drivers in America and chair
carriers in China attacked the early
locomotives. Cotton gins were burn
ed by hand pickers, power looms by

classes in the great city, and having
done so he was ready to depart upon
further adventures for his King.
