So astounding was the growth of this new faith immediately excited the jealousy and hatred of the Phari- sees and the Gadducees. The latter in particular g6eem to have been most virulent in their opposition to the new teaching. As the Sadducees, _ we are told, denied the us. '" It seems as though the chiet Priest was evéw afraid to men- tien. perry of the One who had He is only “this sae rerne us ie onairien ce doth make Jasaen of ua all. Once again Peter is spokesman to answer the charge, and in seven words 6e h the simple prin-/ to ciple that demolishes argument, and that will stand forth*as the guiding rule of Ser hoe: nie fite for ail time e their souls. “‘We must obey God man.” He or she who will do that at all times will over- come the world. To obey God al- ways is the true secret Christian life. It may while here to point out to the class the utter impossibility of tnregener- ate men and women strivi to obey God without firat having ‘accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord. As a matter of fact un- eople seldom want to and as the resurrection of the ard Jesus formed the chief theme of Peter's discourse, their hatred of this new teaching can be understood. The attitude of mind represented. by these two sects should teach ue les- sons today, indicating, as they do, the dangers of unreasoning preju- dice and bitter hostility. The sen- sible thing and the reasonable thing to have done would have been to examine the claims’ of these Gali- leans. The Sanhedrin had them prewch, had listened doctrise; had seen its wonderful re- sults ‘on the lives of thousands; they had put the apostles in prison, ‘but they had escaped, leaving behind them locked doors and barred gates and returned to preach the same Gospel. Surely these amazing events should have caused reasonable men to pause and examine this new doct- rine and geek an explanation “Observe that both, "Phariscotem and Sadduceeism are permanent at- titudes of the human mind,"’ +says Rev. J. Russell Howden in The Sun- day School Times. The former cor- responds to formalism and sacerdo- talism today, and the latter to Mod- ernism, 60-called. For both groups the primary need was conversion by the regenerating power of the Holy Ghost, and that was harder for the Sadducee to receive one » he was unwilling to explore the facts. “If any man willeth to do ne will, he shall know" (John 7:17) These ignorant Galileans were un- dermining the authority of the San- hedrin. was monetrous that a Galilean fisherman should claim to etorrect a Jerusalem rabbi. It was still more monstroue that the said fisherman ehou obviously wielding a power which all the San- hedrin put together could not do. The way of common sens would have been for the Sanhedrin to inquire. Tho way of prejudice was te perse-| éute, Officlalism had been worsted; in its first round with truth. Their} os elie them on to fur- ther violen For the lar time the apostles were arrested and placed before the Sanfedrin. The one redeeming ture of this “trial” is the sensible that you teach not and behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and intend to bring this man’s blood obey God. They love darkness rath- er than light because their deeds are evil, and the first step in obedience that God wants in the natural man is to hearken to the invitation of the Saviour to accept Him Once again Peter takes the oppor- tunity of pressing home upon the hearts of the Sanhedrin the message of the Gospel as he replies to the ac- cusajion of the high _ priest. The courage of the once-vacillating Pet- er is now sublime. There is no hes- itation, no compromise in his reply: “The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew, hanging Him on a tree. Him did God exalt with His ,right hand to be a Prince and Saviour, to give repentance to Is- rael, and remission of sins.’’ This was the kind of preaching that cost John the Baptist his Hfe, and caused Queen Mary of Scotland Lo quake as it was thundered for Knox in Edinburgh. It is the preach- ing of the facts of the Gospel that gets results, but creates bitter op- position Fury and hatred were immed- iatel awakened by the reply of Pet- er. At this juneture Gamaliel one of the great scholara and teachers of his day, rose in the assembly, at whose feet we are told the Apostle Paul bad sat. Gamaliel urges cau- tien, ee out that if this sect was only one of the numerous new religions that were forever épringing p in Jerusalem eoon or later it would die a natural death or come into conflict with the Roman Bmp- jre to be crushed. “But,”” and here is the point that ‘leads one be- lieve that this teasher of the law must have been strongly ftmpresséd by the facts of the case, “if it is of 6a ye will not be able to overthrow ral least hapiy ye ibe found even fea- | conduct of Gamaliel. Here 1s the! indictment of the high priest as read to Peter and John: ‘We strict- to be fighting against God." The advice of Gamaliel was ° lowed. Time was to declare whether ; the mattér was of Ged or of man, d time has set the seal of God up- on the ministry of the Gospel. The j apostles were then scourged and Iet go free. They were having their j first experienoe of what it meant to suffer for Christ, and we read they ‘rejoiced “‘that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the Name." Happy are we when we can say that, and can rejoice even in | tribulation that Christ has counted us worthy to suffer for His Name Oe St. Stratford.
