He was one who did not h ;eep his piety to himself, but called a ipon his whole household to share it a irith him. He was a man of prayer nd a generous giver. He prayed for ight (cf. vs. 21, 32) and followed j* he light when It was given. It was b lecause he asked for light that he ;ot it (cf. James 1:5). The alms he Q, ;ave to others had much to do with lod's giving the saving truth to him ? v. 4: cf. Luke 6:38; Prov. 21:13; 2 d tor. 9:6-8). Cornelius does not & eem to have been a proselyte of the ewish faith (v. 28; cf. ch. 11:3) and j( ie certainly was not as yet a saved , nan (ch. 11:13, 14), but he was on ? he road that leads to salvation. He 11 lecame a saved man by believing on esus Christ (v. 43; cf. ch. 15:7-9). a 'here are those who contend we j, hould never get a man to pray until 2i ie is definitely saved, but it was in inswer to prayer that Cornelius got w he light by which he was saved. Of ourse, if a man is a deliberate rebel p [gainst God, we should nnt aat v.?~ " B-? II o pray; for the prayer of such a one (j s an abomination unto God (Prov. j] 15:8; 28:9; la. 58:1, 2). But a man nay be a sincere seeker after truth ike Cornelius, though he has not yet cund the truth. There is nothing n setter for him to do than to pray o [James 1:5). God will always lead $ nto light all those who sincerely dedre it (John 7:17). It was while p Cornelius was praying that the fir3t , eadings came to Cornelius. It is " when we draw near unto God that t Me draws near unto us (Jas. 4:8). d Cornelius was frightened by the cc- p estial visitor as sinful man always is t] by the approach of the supernatural (of. Dan. 10:11; Luke 1:12-19: 24: >). But Cornelius while frightened e! naintained his equilibrium and va3 eady to obey; he wr.s evary inch a J Roman soldier. He was encouraged di )y being told that God had noted and emembered his prayers and alms. a, Mis prayers and alms did not save .. ?im (ch. 11:13. 14; 10:43). but they " lad prepared the way for his salva- ** ion. God takes note of sincere pray- ti r and of the alms that accompany el hem. Praying and giving should always go hand in hand (1 John 3:16- y 2). Cornelius' faith was put to a . evere test; he was told to send to a artain unknown man who would tell ini what he ought to do (cf. ch. 11: ?< 4). The angel himself might have Did Cornelius this, but it is the plan Li f God to have the way of life made e(] lain to man by man (cf. cb. 9:6-17; vj :26). Cornelius proved his faith . y his prompt obedience. Cornelius* lot V -' '? - ui lae communicative sort: 88 >r the soldier who waited upon him >ntlnually was also a religious man. lai II. Peter Prepared to Preach the foil ospel to the Gentiles, 9-20. While ^ od prepares one man to hear the ospel, He also prepares another an to preach it to him. It certainly tnnot be explained away as empty Pi earns of a fevered imagination that fe ornelius at one end of the line saw 1 angel who bade him send for eter, and that Peter at the other end q/C ' the line should have a vision pre- . iring him for the call just before le messengers arrived, and should jar the voice of the Spirit bidding its m go. There is, beyond question, a gij ipernatural world and a possibility ' present contact between the superttural world and human life. His- , iry demonstrates this. One can be i Atheist or a Deist or Agnostic only f deliberately shutting his eyes to le established factB of history.
