JUNIOR TOPIC—Paul Fin'.she* HI* Work INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—The Missionary Work Goe* On YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—Unto the End* of the Earth. 1. Paul's View of Death (v. C). This be sets forth under two meta ph«»rs: _ 1. An offering (r. 6). **I am ready to tie offered.'’ This figure, meaning a drink offering, or. libation, shows tjint Paul, was looking forward to a violent death. The shedding of Ms £lt>od was to be an offering poured out on the sacred altar as an act of wor ship. Death can only be an offering to God when the life has been wholly yielded to the doing of God’s will 2. A departure (v. 6). -The time of my departure Is at hand.” The same idea is\expressed In' Phil 1 :23 ’■Departure” l» a nautical .term which signifies the loosing of a ship from Its moorings In ordhr to enter upon Its voyage, it is not the end of the voy age, but Its beginning. It Indicates that the vessel Is outward bound. The anchor Is being lifted, and the sails are_ being spread for, the homeland ♦ The same Idea is expressed In Luke 9:.31. where the theme of conversation on the Mount of Transfiguration Is said to be the departure or exodu* which Christ should accomplish at Jerusalem. What the exodus meant Vo Israel, and more, death means to the Christian. II. Paul’s Backward Glance at Life (v. 7): God has a definite purpose for each life. Life should he *n spent that at if* close one may look back with n definite consciousness that the divine purpose has been accomplished. This backward look is presented In three figures: 1. ’.‘I have fought n good figUt’-’ The figure here Is that of n soldier The Christian life Is a warfare. On filets, dangers, and temptations must be met 2. “I have finished my .course.” -The figure here Is tha4 of an athlete who sets out to win « race. * T*he Christian life is a race to he run. .3. ”1 have kept the faith.” The figure Is that of n husbandman to whom had been entrusted a treasure. This treasure was the Christian faith. In a peculiar way Paul was made steward of the Christian-faith. He was conscious of having been faithful to the trust committed to him. III. Paul’s Forward Look to the Future (v. 8). This Is a beautiful pictufe of the cairn at the end of a period of faithful service. Knowtng that death was awaiting him. thefe was no dark cloud 1, He saw beTor* him i» life with God. Eternal fellowship with God-is a prize greatly to he desired. 2. A prlz.e was laid up for him—a crown of righteousness. This reward will he given at the coming of the l.ord to all who love his appearing. IV. . Paul’tf Associate* (vv 9-12). 1. Demas. the deserter (v 10). De mas has become immortalized as one who was religious, hut because of Its attractio n* went after the frorld. The » ’ ve of the world caused him to turn s back upon principle, friendship, honor, and duty. 2. Lake, the faithful (v. 11). What a comfort It must have been to have with him this one faithful soul. Per haps he was the best fitted of all to minister unto Paul. Luke was faith* ful in' shipwreck, imprisonment. In journeying by land and sea. 3. Mark, the restored runaway (v. 11). Mark had gone back but was restored. This is a beautiful picture and most comforting. Though we have failed, we can redeem ourselves and become trustworthy. Everyone who has taken to heart his failure should given another chance. V. Personal Matters (vv. 1,3-18). 1. Bring the cloak, booksi, and parchments (v. 13). In the Jail the clonk would be needed for his com fort. The books and parchments would he required for his study and writing 2. Wronged by Alexander.* the cop persmith (vvi 14. 15). We have no way of determining Just when this deed was committed. 3. Defended by the Lord though forsaken by man (vv. 16-18). Paul in Mr 'nst trying hours was like his Lord —left alofie. He says. “All men for sook me. It was said of Christ that all forsook him and fled. Paul mani fested a like spirit. “I pray God that It may not be laid to their charge” -—-We ‘are jflad to welcome the elli- aon family back ii)to our midst after a try out in floridy in the grape fruit .’-..Everybody that saw me with two thaf loat ever thing they handkerchiefs in each hand gave me dowt there onner count of a remedy between blows and sneezes, mod fly and 400$ to boot that and I considered all of them prayer- of the bank befoar it fully.
