II. Barhabas Sent to Inspect the
Work (vv. 22-26).
1. The Character of Barnabas (v.
24).
He was a good man. It ^Important

work of the* Spirit that his character
be good. He must not only have an
unblemished character, but his 'sym
pathy must be broad. He must be
capable of entering, in full apprecia
tion of the things about him. Barna
bas was full of the Holy Spirit. This
is an essential qualification for pas
toral work.' Only a Spirit-filled man
can discern" the workings of the Spirit
of God. He was Tkewlse a-man of
great faith. Only a man of faith
should Instruct young Christians. ♦
2. Work Done by Barnabas (vv. 23,
25, 26).
(a) H6 heartily endorsed the work
and earnestly exhorted them to con
tinue steadfastly in the faith, and to
cleave unto the Lord. There are
many allurements to tempt young
Christians.
(b) He rejoiced over the work
which hn£_ been done. This shows
that Barnabas could rejoice over the
successful work done by others.
(c) He brought Sabi from Tarsus
(v. 25).
He did more than merely Inspect
the work. Doubtless he preached also

They were not called by this name
in derision as often asserted. Stiller
well says, “What Luke Intends to con
vey is that Saul and Barnabas taught
In the church for a year and the dis
ciples were first called Christians.
The name was a consequence of the
teaching.” Green renders the passage
thus: “And It came to pass with them
that they were combined even for a
