INTRODUCTION--We come now to a great crisis in the history of the whole church. Paul -nd Barnabas, back from Asia Minor. were convinced that a'great field was open in the Gentile world for the spread of the gospel. The news of their work, however, was g some in Jerusalem. Ever since the death of Stephen and the removal of most of the more broadminded Hellenistic Christians, the attitude of the Jerusalem church had been growing more Jewizh. It was granted that Gentiles could he saved. The question was, how? "By becoming Jews," said the Judaizers. "By faith alone," said Paul. Was Christianity to be a mere sect of Juda- ism, or was it to become a gospel for all men? The question arose in Anti- och, hortly after the apostles returned from their tour. I. THE QUESTION RAISED, Acts 15: 1-3; oo Galyi2 1, Visitors from Jerusalem who gave had been sent to deliver a message, said, "Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses. ye cannot be saved." Their announcement came like a bombshell into the church at Antioch. Most of the brethren were uncircum- cised, and Jew and Gentile were asso- ciating as equals. Paul and Barnabas refused to recognize the claims of he law upon Gentiles. Bitter contraversy developed. The question once raised, must be settled. The church suggested an appeal to the Jerusalem leaders, v. 2. Paul, while recognizing their authority to e no greater than his own was di- vinely encouraged to go, Gal. 2: 2, Re- sides Barnabas, he took with him Ti- tus, one of his most faithful disciplas, who was a Gentile. II. THE JERUSALEM CONFERENCE, Acts 15: 4-21; Gal. 2: 2-10. The welcome at Jerusalem left no- fling to be desired. At the first pub- lic meeting of the Conference, the apostles told how God had blessed their labors. He had accepted the Gen- tiles, The inference was plain--who, then, dared refuse them? The lagal- ists, who had also arrived from Anti- och, rose up and maintained doggedly, "They must keep the law of Moses." Their doctrine had blinded them to the evident facts. "Our way, rr not at all," was their attitude. The clash had come. The leaders required time for consideration. The mecting was adjourned. Paul saw the legalists. none too hon- orable in their methods (Gal. 2: 4), might, by an appeal to popular pre- judice, discredit the apostles. He was 'too sharp-witted to be caught in that manner, He privately interviewed the key-man, Gal. 2: 2. It was most im- portant that James, and Peter, and Septombior 20.

After prolonged debating, Peter made his speech, Acts 15: 7-11. He reminded them how he had dined with Cornelius and had won him for Christ. The debaters were silenced. Barnabas and then Paul told their story. James, now the head of the church, and most orthodox Jew, showed from Seripture how God had long planned to save all the Gentiles who should call upon him, Acts 15: 15- 18. He then made the proposal which for the time, settled the question. III. A PROPOSAL ACCEPTED, Acts 15: 22-35. The proposal which gained the con- sent of the Council was, of necessity, a compromise.
