attention to this "harmony''-"with
one accord" or with one mind "they
gave heed to the apostles teaching
and to the duties of the hour. They
were, at the time this chapter was
written, harmonious in speech and
action. 1t is said of them that they
were with one accord in the temple"
The expression with one accord" is
used but few times in the n. T.

occurs. So far as I am able to dis
Germ it is used whenever it means to
say that a number of people have
spoken or acted as one man. See
Acts 1:14; 2:46; AGA; 1857; 1912.
Now if these statements mean any
thing at all they certainly show that
in these cases all those concerned
acted in harmony. Whether they
were making prayer or making an
instruction they acted or spoke as
one.

belief they all believed and had a
common ground for meeting with
each other-they We're members of the
same household of faith. 1t Is no
exaggeration to affirm that belief lies
at the basis of every successful en-
deavors of men whether it be within
or without the Christian church. In
the business world belief is USUALLY
called confidence. Because men be-
lieve in or have faith in each other,
confidence results and advancement
follows, "They that gladly received
his word We're baptized. And all
that believed were together" These
are the statements made concerning
the church mentioned here in the
second chapter of Acts. What a rev.
elation there is here of the character
of those early Christians, They were
only children in the faith. The larger
part of them were only a few days
out of Judaism and heathenism. Why
they scarcely knew the real meaning
fthe words they were using or the
ordinances they were observing. But
a great change had taken place in
their lives. Prhaps some of these
newly made Christians were among
the very number Of those who wit
messed the trial and crucifixion of him
whom they now believed upon. Even
the very notion of God was filled with
new conception. But in spite of all
this they believed.
So far as the elements of belief
enters into our present church life it
must have these objects. In order to
the highest success the individual
Christian must believe in: "a The
whole system of divine realities.
(2) The individual church. (3)
Himself and in each other.
v. Finally let me speak Of prayer.
1t certainly was one of the significant
marks Of the church at Jerusalem and
it should be of every Christian
church.
