The Hospitable Reception of the Natives (v. 2). v . They built a fire and made the ship wrecked people as comfortable as p<j8- slble in the cold and rain. 2. Paul Gathering Sticks for a Fire (t. 3). The world’s greatest preacher and missionary, yet he was not abdve picking up sticks foj* a fire. All along the journey Paul busied himself In doing all that he could to help some qne. Any service rendered In the right spirit is holy work. 3. Paul Bitten by a Venomous Ser pent (v. 3). ^ Among the^lcks that Paul gathered was a serpent. Perhaps It ha ready coiled Itself up for its wi sleep, but aroused by the warmth of the Are. It darted at Paul and Axed its fangs upon his hand. This was a serious thing. The natives expected to see him fall down dead, -yet he shook It off, unharmed. At first the natives concluded that he was an escaped murderer, and that retributive justice was being meted out to him. When they saw^ie was unharmed they con- In the pop ular mind a man soon pusses from a murderer to a god, or more frequently the reverse is true. 4.

A child’s start in life depends not on eluded that he was a god. the father’s bank account but on the mother’s love and respect for her chil dren’s father. A man sincerely de voted to his wife gives his children the right start if he gives them health and character, without money.

The good and learned Bishop Col lins Denny,-speaking in North Caro lina, advises men to wear mustaches as “their badge of masculinity.” We hesitate to disagree with any bishop. It’s like a hoptoad arguing with a locomotive, but there are many signs of “masculinity” without a mus tache.

It was typical of the welcome that was given to the gospel by the Gentile world. He was treated with great leniency at Rome for he was allowed to hire a house and live apart, except that his guard was constantly with him. Being chained to a soldier was rather Irksome, yet It gave him a chance to preach to the soldiers, which he could not have had In any other way. v III. Paul’s Ministry In Roms (vv. 17-31). 1. His Conference With the Leading Jews (w. 17-22). He did not as usual, wait for the Sabbath day to speak to the Jews. He allowed only one day for rest his ob ject being to have a fair understand ing with them. When they came he endeavored to conciliate them. He told them that though he came an a prisoner, he was not a criminal. Though Ms own countrymen had sought his life he did not come with accusations against them. The result of this in terview was that the Jews,cautiously took neutral ground, but expressed a desire to hear what Paul could say io defense of a sect which was every where spoken against. w 2. Paul Expounding the Kingdom of God and Persuading Concerning Jesus (vv. 23-?l). He pointed out a real kingdom— the Messianic kingdom with the his toric Jesus as the king. The kingdom to Paul meant a definite reign of a def-. inlte person, not simply an Improved state of society. This he showed from the Scriptures. ' For Xmas Jll r Cheaper than ever before.
