Two methods may profitably be en-
plOyed in the review Of the lessons
Of the Quarter. First, 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 made
prominent by summarizing the facts
Of each lesson and stating the most
vital teaching thereof. The first meth
cd can he used in reviewing the les
sons 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 mt Tarsus.
Of Hebrew parentage Being brought
up in pious home, he was thorough
" imbued with the spirit of devotion
to the Scriptures. He was educated
at Jerusalem under the tutorship of
Gamaliel. The chief text 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 z. In Paul's training a. q
Pharisee, he was taught to love his
own nation. to love Gods law, and
to be jealous toward God. that Ia, to
have passion for God and His work.
Lesson 3. Paul's burning hatred Of
Jesus melted him to endeavor to
stamp out the Nazarene heresy. While
on the way to Damascus. with author
ity 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 me7"
In response to the heavenly instruc-
tion lie went to Damascus where
Ananias baptized him. and he received
his sight and was filled 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.
After lengthy sojourn in Arabia he
visited Jerusalem where he was be-
friended by Barnabas when suspected
by the disciples.
Lesson 5. When the religious awaken.
ing at Antioch had come to the atten-
ton of the Jerusalem church, Bar
nabas was sent to inspect it. and see
ing help was needed he brought Paul
from Tarsus TO be his helper.
Lesson 6. After teaching year at
Antioch. the Spirit moved the church
to send forth Barnabas and Paul to
e>angelize$ the heather. The church
sent her best men.
Lesson Z. AS Paul and Barnabas
were preaching at Iconirm. an ut
tempt was made to worship them as
gods. Their efforts were frustrated
by the tact Of Paul. Soon after this
Paul was stoned, showing that satanic
! worship can soon be turned into satan
ic hate.
| Lesson 8. Paul's preaching the grace
of God to the heather brought on a
| controversy in the church Mt Antioch.
The question in dispute was: "Shall
Gentiles be required to keep the
! Mosaic law as condition of saliva
tion?" The decision was in favor OF
Paul. and so Paul and Earnabas were
free to begin their second missionary
journey.
Lesson 9. The Spirit forbade Paul
to tarry longer in the provinces of
Asia preaching the Gospel, and by a
vision of man from Macedonia plead
ing for help, he was called into Eu-
rope.
Lesson 10. The casting out of q
demon from young woman resulted
in landing Paul and Si'as In Jail. They
were miraculously delivered and the
jailer was converted.
Lesson II. Being driven out from
Thessalonica and Berea. Paul went tn
Athens where he preached the gospel
on Mars Hill. The result: Of his preach
ing here was that some Knocked, some
pr0crastinated. and sane believed.
Lesson 12. Paul in this lesson sets
forth the grand principles which
should govern the believers life, the
sum and substance Of which is:
"Whether therefore We eat, or drink.
or whatsoever ye do. do all to the
glory of God"
