golden text i prau on toward the coal unto tfc prlnj of the high calling of god in christ jsua pwhpplans 3 m pressing toward the mark phil 3 14 well describes the zeal and intense devotion with which paul lived his life for christ he was wholehearted in giving himserf to the preaching of the gospel ouj lesson tells of his carrying of the gospel into europe by the guidance and blessing of the holy spirit it seems appropriate to consider he two scripture portions in re verse order looking first at paul s declaration in phllippians of his pas ion to know christ and then m acts of his purpose to make him known the man with vision is eager to serve a task without a vision makes a man a drudge a vision without a task makes him a vis ionary a task and a vision makes him a missionary i pauls passion to know christ phil 3714 there were many things in paul s life of which he was proud until he met christ and then everything else lost its importance and interest all things in life ar relative in value and our attachment to them is determined by our heart attitude now being spiritually minded and having found in chxiat real satis faction for his soul the christian counts as refuse the things in which the world takes such pride and sat isfaction to know him calls for a depth of experience sacrifice and of joy which is not easy to describe m words it begins with a divine righteousness imparted by faith self righteousness will not suffice this is not a matter of law but of grace it is a resurrection faith and there fore powerful it is a faith which accepts suffering for christ as a part of fellowship with him not only bearable but glorious because it is in the power of his resur rectum that fellowship is one day to be complete and eternal for there ts to be for paul the assured experi ence of a personal resurrection out from among the dead v 11 the faith of a christian looks beyond the grave all this has to do with the present as well as the blessed future the man who has this kind of spiritual experience shares the purpose of paul expressed in verses 1214 here there is no resting back in self aatisfied comfort no pride in one s past victories no sense of having arrived paul saw not only the necessity but the blessedness of going from victory to victory too many chris tians of today are entirely satisfied with what they have attained and it is usually all too little there is a prize to be gained the prize o our cal christ jesus let us like paul be filled with holy dissatisfaction with ourselves until we reach that bless ed goal the man who had such a vision was ready for god s call to carry the gospel into europe n pauls purpose to make christ known acts 16 1315 the story of the conversion of lydia has many elements of spe cial interest it presents the turn big point in the progress of the gospel which by the grace and lead ing of god brought it northward to europe rather than southward into africa many of us have heard because of the way paul was led and one wonders if europe and america might not otherwise have been the dark continents rather than africa we are what we are fay tha grace of god then we note that the first con vert was a woman she was not the last woman to give an attentive ear and a believing heart to the gospel message the church through all its history has been biassed by the raadlnesa of women to bear and heed the gospel we like to note that she set a pat rtern of hospitality and service which liar sisters in the church have main tained see v is she con strained the visiting preachers to enjoy tha comforts of her fine home and thus put forward the work oi christ see iii john 5- it is encouraging to note how per fectly the leading of the holy spirit worked out in the experience ol paul and his brethren the lord jent his prepared messenger to the place where there was a prepared heart walunff to receive the wnrrt with gladness we may confidently go on the ci rands of our god knowing that when he leads he goes before and pre pares the way that does not mean that there will be no trials and dif flculttoa paul bad plenty of them ae u cor 11 2333 but it doe ssaan thai in may go with the
