Two methods may probably be EN-
plOyed in the review of the lessons
of the Quarter. First, a biographical
sketch of the Apostle Paul, such as
his birth, home training, education,
conversation. teaching and missionary
work. Second, the leading teachings
of the lessons, which may be maze
prominent by summarizing h facts
Of each lesson and stating the most
vital teaching thereof. The first Meth
cd can be used In reviewing the les
son In all departments and grades
and can be easily adapted by any
teacher. The second method Will be
preferred by many In the senior and
adult classes.
The following is given by way Of
suggestion:
Lesson I. Paul was born at Tarsus,
of Hebrew parentage. Being brought
up In a pious home, he was thorough
ly imbued with the spirit of devotion
to the Scriptures. lie was educated
at Jerusalem under the tutOrship or
Gamaliel. The chief tex book was
the Bible. In addition to his religious
training he was taught a trade which
came in very useful later. enabling
him to support himself while preach
Ing the gospel.
Lesson 2. In Paul's training as a
Pharisee. he a taught to love his
own nation, to love Gods law, and
TO he jealous toward God, that Is. to

Conscience is the law of life for every

Gods word.

fly TO arrest and imprison the believ-
ers. men and women, he was stricken
with blindness and fell to the earth,
and Jesus spoke to him from heaven,
saying, "Why persecutest thou meT"
In response TO the heavenly instruc-
tiOn he went TO Damascus where
Ananias baptized him. and he received
his sight and was filed with the Holy
Spirit.
Lesson 4. Paul straightway preached
Christ In the synagogue. Like every
one who is really converted he began
to tell of the newly found Saviour.

visited Jerusalem where he was be-
friended by Barnabas when suspected
by the disciples.
